My daughter and I usually put on our boots and stomped out a maze - usually tons of fun and we end up giggling and soaking wet because the snow gets so high. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/light-gray-and-white-a-wiw-in-three-chapters#post-1440123 Tue, 10 Feb 2015 03:06:14 +0000 Jaime 1440123@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look perfect for a winter wonderland - my favorite is #1. J Crew awaits! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/light-gray-and-white-a-wiw-in-three-chapters#post-1440061 Tue, 10 Feb 2015 00:52:56 +0000 Karie 1440061@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ummlila, yes, it is one of the first sans dark sunglasses photos since my eye surgery. Thanks for the compliment!&nbsp;</p> <p>Day, I also felt that the black booties looked a little "heavy" - good idea to try it with a black &amp; white striped tee. I do have one (also from Old Navy, just like the one I'm wearing but different colors). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/light-gray-and-white-a-wiw-in-three-chapters#post-1440058 Tue, 10 Feb 2015 00:35:41 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1440058@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ha! Reed has a similar roadway system, also with snow higher than his back, dug by me out in the yard.</p> <p>I like the cool greys on you. Is this one of your first photo shoots without dark glasses after eye surgery? You look good! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/light-gray-and-white-a-wiw-in-three-chapters#post-1440039 Mon, 09 Feb 2015 23:40:49 +0000 Karie 1440039@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Torontogirl, isn't it fun just switching up a few accessories to see how many different looks you can make?&nbsp;</p> <p>Ruth M, I just had a lightbulb moment and decided to call the store and see if they even <i>have</i> the blazer&nbsp;before I trapse over there in all my snowsuit-wrapped glory - and they do have it, in both my sizes (I'm always in-between two), and they're holding both for me until tomorrow night.&nbsp;</p> <p>So J.Crew, our date is now for tomorrow night. I'll be there - snowsuit, snow shovel, and all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/light-gray-and-white-a-wiw-in-three-chapters#post-1440023 Mon, 09 Feb 2015 23:26:32 +0000 Helena 1440023@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very nice, and I love how a slight change in accessories changes up the look. Have fun with all that snow!! I just finished shoveling us out yesterday </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/light-gray-and-white-a-wiw-in-three-chapters#post-1440017 Mon, 09 Feb 2015 23:14:58 +0000 Ruth M 1440017@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, that blazer looks quite gorgeous! You may as well just go ahead and order it online right now since the forecast is for more snow :)&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/light-gray-and-white-a-wiw-in-three-chapters#post-1440011 Mon, 09 Feb 2015 23:09:00 +0000 Karie 1440011@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Diane G and merwoman, this truly is a cliffhanger, as I just checked the weather and next weekend calls for MORE SNOW! J.Crew is so close, yet so far away...</p> <p>Aw shucks, thanks for the "pretty" compliment,&nbsp;CocoLion! Maybe there is a benefit to all this snow after all.</p> <p>Ruth M, I think the happy sequel will involve me giving up on the thought of trying the blazer on in the store and just ordering on-line instead.</p> <p>Below is the blazer that will (hopefully) be involved in a happy ending. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/light-gray-and-white-a-wiw-in-three-chapters#post-1440008 Mon, 09 Feb 2015 23:05:09 +0000 Day Vies 1440008@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>1 and 3 are my favorites. I love the light airyness of gray with white. I think in #2 the black accessories&nbsp; ruin the light feel and looks too heavy to me. I adore the fact you put stripes with a python print -- NICE! In #3 the added tension of the round elements in the necklace play nice with the strip I also like the addition of the gray boot. Perhaps if your top was white with a black stripe I wouldn't feel like the black elements were too heavy. Overall I love this look it's casual cozy and pulled together and looks fresh in the depths of winter. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/light-gray-and-white-a-wiw-in-three-chapters#post-1439964 Mon, 09 Feb 2015 22:19:00 +0000 CocoLion 1439964@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Diane G you are so funny!</p> <p>#3 works the best but #2 is a close second. &nbsp;I'm not sure why the snakeskin booties in #1&nbsp;aren't getting me as excited as the solid gray ones. &nbsp;You also look very pretty in these pics, the snow must be good for your complexion! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/light-gray-and-white-a-wiw-in-three-chapters#post-1439958 Mon, 09 Feb 2015 22:12:54 +0000 Ruth M 1439958@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love and covet your poncho hoodie, and you look just great in the light grey and white colour combination. I enjoyed your story and&nbsp;am looking forward to&nbsp; a happy sequel next week. (And laughing out loud with Diane G!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/light-gray-and-white-a-wiw-in-three-chapters#post-1439955 Mon, 09 Feb 2015 22:09:49 +0000 merwoman 1439955@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love all iterations! Hope you get to JCrew!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/light-gray-and-white-a-wiw-in-three-chapters#post-1439888 Mon, 09 Feb 2015 20:41:10 +0000 Anonymous 1439888@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh I do love a good story, but this one has been left on a cliff hanger...will our heroine make it to JCrew? Will the jacket be available in her size? Will Cosmo Edward ever&nbsp; make it back home through the snow?? Stay tuned folks!</p> <p>Meanwhile, in the snowy wastelands, the starring lady looks wonderful in her grey and white outfit. The reader enjoying how the footwear and jewellery changes things up :D</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/light-gray-and-white-a-wiw-in-three-chapters#post-1439840 Mon, 09 Feb 2015 19:06:46 +0000 Karie 1439840@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Chapter I: DH works late&nbsp;Friday nights, and I'm off to Athos, a delicious Greek restaurant, with a friend that I haven't seen in ages. Good wine, yummy food, great conversation, and fun shoes - what more could you ask for? I was going to head over to the mall and check out a blazer I saw in the J.Crew catalog, but it was near to the mall's closing time, so I headed home. Big. Mistake. </p> <p>Chapter II: Saturday morning, and I'm off to breakfast at my favorite diner with a different friend (I've left DH home this time, poor fellow). Same outfit, different footwear, and I've added a black bag and my black-rimmed specs to bookend. It's snowing when I leave the diner, so J.Crew will have to wait.</p> <p>Chapter III: It stopped snowing! It's Saturday evening, so&nbsp;off to church I go. Since I haven't worn this outfit for very long either day, it's a no-brainer to wear it again and just swap out the shoes.&nbsp;I'll get to J.Crew for sure now! Except when I leave church it's snowing <i>like crazy</i>. I'm homeward bound again. My wallet (and DH)&nbsp;may be happy, but I am sad.</p> <p>The moral of this excessively long story? <i>Never put off 'till tomorrow when it's not snowing today.</i> (Isn't that how the saying goes?)</p> <p>Epilogue: So it snowed, and it snowed, and it's still snowing, for the second weekend-into-Monday&nbsp;in a row. Pic 4 is Cosmo Edward and his roadway system in the backyard.</p> <p>White jeans: J.Crew, last year<br />Poncho Hoodie: JCP, older<br />Striped tee: Old Navy, last year<br />Snakeskin booties: Vince Camuto, Christmas gift from DH&nbsp;2013<br />Black booties: ? Christmas gift 2014<br />Light gray/beige booties: Sam Edleman, last year</p> <p>And hey J.Crew, you and I have a date next weekend. For sure. Unless it snows. </p>
