I can count on you! Yes, maple, honey, sweet spices, chocolate. Yummm, great color names! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/last-minute-report#post-1944008 Thu, 02 Aug 2018 03:06:02 +0000 Berkeley Girl 1944008@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, fantastic! I love all three outfits and each of them looks great on you. Plus the pieces are all so versatile, I can imagine they’ll form many more cute looks. </p> <p> My standout favorite (and I doubt this will surprise you) is the striped grey cardigan. So cute and stylish! I’m absolutely with you that the striped factor means you can bypass the “no more grey sweaters” rule, because it really does amp up the style, and just adds that little something more to a look. </p> <p>Also with you on the way color names can increase temptation.. remembering a certain scrumptious “maple blush” cashmere t-neck from a season or two ago, which remains one of my favorite sweaters. Or was that “honey taupe...?” Both make my mouth water.</p> <p>That said, the cinnamon (or whatever) color of the jacket looks fantastic on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/last-minute-report#post-1943389 Tue, 31 Jul 2018 20:28:15 +0000 KnittingGene 1943389@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all, it really is lovely to get such nice feedback. </p> <p>Suz, I’m going with cinnamon, thank you. I sometimes worry that I love this family of colors mostly because of the spice names. </p> <p>Scarlet, funny. I wasn’t allowed to get another grey cardigan! Oops. But it’s not really grey, it’s STRIPED. But hold strong, my dear, and love and wear the coats you already own!</p> <p>Smittie, wow it’s hard to post these pics! Even though my experience here has been so positive. But, like you, I really appreciate seeing these pieces on real people when others post. I do also think it’s a positive act for me, personally, to take the plunge. </p> <p>Karen13, Kate, julesegr, smittie - thanks for mentioning the blue stripes. Blue has never been a heart tugging color for me but I think I’m going to play with it more as I grey. I do think the pic turned out well but it was also the last pic taken in 95 degrees so it’s possible that the flattering effects of the color were related to overheating! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/last-minute-report#post-1943278 Tue, 31 Jul 2018 16:02:15 +0000 anchie 1943278@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great scores.

It’s nice to see these things come to life.<br /> My favourite is the blue striped shirt. Such a great colour and the stripes are trendy and graphic!

I'm especially loving that button-up on you -- looks like a perfect fit to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/last-minute-report#post-1943205 Tue, 31 Jul 2018 14:06:12 +0000 Jenn 1943205@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You got some great items! I actually really like the button-down shirt on you. I think it’s my favorite, but you are really singing my tune here. Pendleton, EF, and Born are all brands I have in my own closet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/last-minute-report#post-1943199 Tue, 31 Jul 2018 13:38:52 +0000 julesegr 1943199@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love them all, especially the striped button down.

I am not allowed to buy a coat just now, or I would be tempted to try it on. These look like great finds to me. Love that Cardi on you. Good to know about the pants. I am always on the look out for great slacks. It’s hard to find a good fit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/last-minute-report#post-1943176 Tue, 31 Jul 2018 12:01:20 +0000 Cathy 1943176@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have a great sense of style!&nbsp; All of your picks look fantastic on you!&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/last-minute-report#post-1943168 Tue, 31 Jul 2018 11:40:59 +0000 unfrumped 1943168@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These all look very good on you!<br /> I agree about the cardigan— wearing it open gives great lines, so the neater fit works great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/last-minute-report#post-1943164 Tue, 31 Jul 2018 11:23:11 +0000 Anonymous 1943164@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YOU LOOK FABULOUS.&nbsp; I love everyone of these on you.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/last-minute-report#post-1943129 Tue, 31 Jul 2018 06:07:02 +0000 Kate 1943129@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love all your picks, and every one looks great on you. The color of that jacket is divine, and I particularly love the blue shirt. I’ve given up on shirts—my combo of really broad shoulders and small bust are just too hard to fit. I liked the Born booties, but couldn’t get a good fit on them for my long, skinny feet, even going down 1/2 size from my regular size. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/last-minute-report#post-1943126 Tue, 31 Jul 2018 05:29:32 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1943126@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, these are great on you! A successful NAS! I love that coat and the booties together, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/last-minute-report#post-1943121 Tue, 31 Jul 2018 05:14:46 +0000 JAileen 1943121@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I like your style, especially the EF cardigan. It’s really outstanding. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/last-minute-report#post-1943117 Tue, 31 Jul 2018 04:40:37 +0000 Suz 1943117@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are all fantastic on you! You had a sensational sale. I like every single piece. The EF sweater looks versatile and distinctive and the Pendleton jacket is such a great colour on you...cinnamon, maybe? It's great with the boots. It will also look good over the blue striped shirt! And the pants are intriguing. They look terrific on you.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/last-minute-report#post-1943109 Tue, 31 Jul 2018 04:04:59 +0000 KnittingGene 1943109@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was going to go back and find your post, Karen! I just had to wait for the boots to arrive this evening, try them on again to make sure I wasn’t crazy in the store when I thought they fit. I do wear some regular width shoes but that’s just really only because of the limited wide offerings. I’m a true size 8W with a high instep. Most of the width on my foot, I’d say, is around the ball of my feet due to bunions. So maybe that’s a difference between you and me. I got these in my normal size. I can take a quick measurement across the toe area, if you’d like but I don’t know how much that changes across sizes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/last-minute-report#post-1943108 Tue, 31 Jul 2018 04:03:55 +0000 Anonymous 1943108@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You had a great NAS. The Pendleton jacket, EF cardigan and striped shirt are especially fabulous. You make me want them all </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/last-minute-report#post-1943102 Tue, 31 Jul 2018 03:51:53 +0000 karen13 1943102@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I particularly like the EF striped cardi. - it is unique and fun and looks like you can wear it with many things. All the piece look great on you, and I love the color on the striped shirt - I love me a good vertical stripe!&nbsp;</p> <p>OK, now dish on the boots. I wanted to get them and posted with some questions about fit, and got the sense that they would be too narrow for me. I have a 6.5D widths foot, and the Born Pirlo in a 7M is great for me (but it has a rounder toe). If you don't mind sharing, how wide is your foot, and what size did you get compared to your typical best fit for boots. And in particular, are they roomy around the pinkie to 6th toe area? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/last-minute-report#post-1943100 Tue, 31 Jul 2018 03:50:38 +0000 KnittingGene 1943100@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Isn’t it, though, rachylou? I can definitely imagine wearing it with jeans and a white/cream top. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/last-minute-report#post-1943094 Tue, 31 Jul 2018 03:44:11 +0000 rachylou 1943094@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good looking!! The Pendleton is just asking for an Angie colour pairing with light blue </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/last-minute-report#post-1943092 Tue, 31 Jul 2018 03:42:20 +0000 KnittingGene 1943092@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Delayed shipping has set me back a bit but I’ve gotten a few pieces that should work very well for me, especially for work. For reference, I’m 5’4” and round. I’m writing this on my iPad and realized I don’t know how to add more finds but will try and do that later.</p> <p>I love this Pendleton jacket which didn’t get the love here the other Pendleton jackets did. I love it for the color which is my sweet spot. It’s cotton with a partial lining and water resistant. So this will fit a hole in my wardrobe for a casual jacket with good breathability but some warmth and ability to mange some rain. It’s got a great, roomy hood. And that color!!! My brown Born boots finally arrived today and they really do work on my wide feet with high insteps. The seams avoid my bunions which is key. They are comfy, as Angie has said, and such a deep, rich color. I took my typical size.</p> <p>The striped merino EF cardigan lept into my hands on a quick store visit. I don’t know how that happened! I took a large, my smaller EF size, since I’m never going to close it with the snaps and the shoulder fit was much better. In all these pics I’m wearing the JCrew high rise Cameron pants. Wow, do I love these. Pants are tough for me to find and these feel great. Those are the navy but I realize they don’t look it - it’s a very dark blue.</p> <p>The striped shirt is a piece that makes me happy even though it’s not perfect. I wear almost exclusively knit tops. I like the way they move with me, adapt to my body and look. But I always wish I could have a woven shirt or two for a different look, a little bit of that borrowed from the boys thing. But finding shirts that button reliably across my bust is a HEWI for sure. This shirt does that with no issue. The rest of the fit is acceptable to me since it gives me a bit of this look. It looks great under a knit EF blazer. I like the cream Vince sneakers a lot and have started wearing them already. They are replacing my classic Adidas superstars which were really discolored.</p> <p>I picked up a few more things but these were the ones I was most pleased with. </p>
