You look so gorgeous in all of them. My favorite is 4/5, probably because it is seems so different for you, and that beautiful scarf just draws me in. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lilac-toffee-white-4-variations/page/2#post-1397007 Sat, 15 Nov 2014 04:39:13 +0000 ElleH 1397007@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow Suz, Angie would be proud. You really recreated her ensembles in style. I love them all. I'm glad you're starting to feel better.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lilac-toffee-white-4-variations/page/2#post-1397003 Sat, 15 Nov 2014 04:33:50 +0000 Neel 1397003@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are brilliant with what colors work for you Suz :). #1 is my absolute favorite but you couldn't go wrong with any of those really! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lilac-toffee-white-4-variations/page/2#post-1396959 Sat, 15 Nov 2014 02:27:46 +0000 Windchime 1396959@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look radiant in radiant orchid, or lilac! I really like what the grey scarf adds to the first outfit, and I love the jacket in that outfit. Great boots in 3, 4, and 5. Taupe and lilac (orchid) work so well together, don't they? Since you wear orchid so well, it makes sense that you would add some taupe accessories. Now that you're feeling better, you can shop for taupe items. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lilac-toffee-white-4-variations#post-1396953 Sat, 15 Nov 2014 02:20:58 +0000 Anonymous 1396953@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That shade of lavender is beautiful on you. My favorite is also #1, followed closely by 4/5. Please take it easy and take time to heal those lungs. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lilac-toffee-white-4-variations#post-1396923 Sat, 15 Nov 2014 00:56:51 +0000 jackiec 1396923@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My goodness but aren't you a quick study?! Fab renditions - all of them! My favs are #1 and #5 but they are all great. These colours certainly play well for you. Glad you're feeling better. So good to see you </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lilac-toffee-white-4-variations#post-1396915 Sat, 15 Nov 2014 00:16:33 +0000 Robidi 1396915@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They are all so pretty, but the first one is my favorite. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lilac-toffee-white-4-variations#post-1396904 Fri, 14 Nov 2014 23:47:32 +0000 Peri 1396904@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Do I have to name a favorite? I like them all! I'm just really puzzled when you say you get tired of your clothes, because every outfit is stunning and you make such a variety. Wonderful! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lilac-toffee-white-4-variations#post-1396901 Fri, 14 Nov 2014 23:31:01 +0000 Sharon 1396901@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like all of these! #1 is my favourite, too but I think #2 would win without the scarf. I agree with Ornella about the colours distracting my eye. And really, the lavender is so pretty on you I think having it close to your face is good.</p> <p>I see what you mean about the closer fit in #3, but I think it gives it a sporty vibe which is trendy in itself. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lilac-toffee-white-4-variations#post-1396875 Fri, 14 Nov 2014 21:56:52 +0000 Suz 1396875@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ornella -- it is here:&nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/five-silhouette-rotation">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....e-rotation</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lilac-toffee-white-4-variations#post-1396872 Fri, 14 Nov 2014 21:32:58 +0000 citygirldc 1396872@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the first outfit and that lilac (fuscia) is a great color on you.

I especially like #1 (it seems closest to the inspiration picture) and #4 (there's something really special about how those colors interact, I had a hard time moving away from that picture). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lilac-toffee-white-4-variations#post-1396849 Fri, 14 Nov 2014 20:45:05 +0000 Vicki 1396849@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, well done and I really like #2. &nbsp;Those pants remind me of the grey AE's that Marley, Rae and I have.</p> <p>Your color "variations" in all four are spectacular and show that you know your colors and can work with them at different levels and in placement. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lilac-toffee-white-4-variations#post-1396846 Fri, 14 Nov 2014 20:40:58 +0000 Tania 1396846@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All amazing.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lilac-toffee-white-4-variations#post-1396843 Fri, 14 Nov 2014 20:32:22 +0000 CocoLion 1396843@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz -- yes -- a huge lightbulb moment for me as well. &nbsp;I have several thoughts on this so look forward to your thread. &nbsp;It's like I need a silhouette intervention -- get me out of cardigan, skinnies and booties! &nbsp;Is it FFBO or signature style, fear of change or some form of OCD? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lilac-toffee-white-4-variations#post-1396799 Fri, 14 Nov 2014 19:18:25 +0000 Alassë 1396799@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>1 looks very Suz; 2 reads Suz-springy to me; 3 I like due to my style; 4-5's scarf is very eye-catching.

Love the scarf in #4-5. I'm also with Denise on #3. It looks sporty, cute and comfy to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lilac-toffee-white-4-variations#post-1396745 Fri, 14 Nov 2014 17:49:20 +0000 Suz 1396745@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Inge</b>, thank you! I am feeling much, much better. Almost 100% except I still get winded a bit more easily. So glad to be seeing the end of this illness.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Denise,</b> that is a very interesting insight. Hmmm. I want to do a follow-up post to Una's when I get a chance. It was a real light-bulb moment for me. With possible long-term ripple effects, to mix metaphors!&nbsp; </p> <p>ETA: <b>kkards </b>- I actually tried that and it didn't work because the items are both too fitted. But it is a great idea and was my initial hope, too!&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lilac-toffee-white-4-variations#post-1396742 Fri, 14 Nov 2014 17:47:52 +0000 kkards 1396742@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>gosh, i love both #1 &amp; #2 equally.<br />i'm wondering if #3 would/could work with the shirt tails out? that would make it more current, but not sure about the zipper on the sweater, but maybe worth a try. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lilac-toffee-white-4-variations#post-1396739 Fri, 14 Nov 2014 17:46:36 +0000 Inge 1396739@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh yes, Suz, I meant to ask earlier: how are you feeling, sweet lady? Do wrap up and take it easy tonight! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lilac-toffee-white-4-variations#post-1396733 Fri, 14 Nov 2014 17:39:24 +0000 CocoLion 1396733@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the first three. &nbsp;Because I am now so used to oversized fits, the third actually looks fresh in a classic sort of way. &nbsp;Yesterday I wore an outfit with a very similar silhouette, save for the tall boots, mine were ankle boots but also with the pants tucked in. &nbsp;I felt a hint of renewal because it was simply a different silhouette from my usual. &nbsp;(Which we were discussing in Una's thread a few days ago.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lilac-toffee-white-4-variations#post-1396714 Fri, 14 Nov 2014 16:58:13 +0000 Ornella 1396714@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>4 great outfits. The first one is fabulous and to my eye&nbsp;the most obvious take on the inspiration, but others deserve a lot of&nbsp;attention too. I'd like to see&nbsp;the second one with somewhat softer scarf (or no scarf at all), I think the strong colours on the scarf draw my eye away from the rest of the outfit too quickly. Third one is excellent example of how the perception of the good fit had shifted and I agree that&nbsp;this one looks less modern especially standing next to the others. But, it is a great concept. Do you have anything white in more fluid fit - or how about just taking the topper off? Great shirt, jeans and boots are a classic look and I am curious what yours look like.<br />Ah, OK, now I see the jacket in 5th photo...how about trying that topper?</p> <p>4/5 awesome. I find that the rest of the outfit balances the scarf much better than in the 2nd outfit, but now I wonder what only sweater, jeans and boots look like. Yes, I'm seriously on less is more kick, and the hemline and sleeves detailing are enough interest of me.</p> <p>p.s.<br />I hope you're better Suz. I've been rather out of action here lately&nbsp;and don't know the health update.&nbsp;You certainly look great.&nbsp;Hugs. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lilac-toffee-white-4-variations#post-1396705 Fri, 14 Nov 2014 16:49:14 +0000 Anonymous 1396705@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, wow, those boots lace up at the back, how fab! Love#1 and #2 because of all the white, but I also love #4 with those great boots. Nice find! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lilac-toffee-white-4-variations#post-1396693 Fri, 14 Nov 2014 16:35:45 +0000 TraceyLiz65 1396693@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#1 is my favorite, it's looks fantastic... not to say the others aren't great, but the first one just strikes a perfect chord in my view.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lilac-toffee-white-4-variations#post-1396692 Fri, 14 Nov 2014 16:34:11 +0000 Tanya 1396692@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beuatiful options Suz, and howfun to see "our" tan boots out!&nbsp; The first version is also my favorite.&nbsp; I am off to post mine version of the ensemble. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lilac-toffee-white-4-variations#post-1396688 Fri, 14 Nov 2014 16:30:48 +0000 Inge 1396688@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All excellent interpretations Suz. And that shade or radiant orchid really is stunning on you, plus you wear so many shades of taupe so well. You are inspiring me to play around with that colour more too (which is a bit of a problem, as I currently don't own any taupe-coloured tops, and my old taupe leather jacket is a disgrace - I think I need to look for a new one;-)</p> <p>I think my favourites are 1 (love the crisp white jeans, surprise, surprise, and the contrast of the cool-coloured scarf with the slightly warmer colour of that fab jacket), and 4/5.&nbsp;</p> <p>And waving to my white leather jacket twins:-) To answer your question Suz: I use it both as an indoor (whenever it's cool enough to wear a jacket inside - but like you, I don't wear it to work at home)&nbsp;and outdoor jacket (Summer and mild Spring days). </p>
