I don't find the fussy at all, as I pick ones that have good heft and aren't too slippery or soft and wrinkly. &nbsp;I often take it off when I &nbsp;get into the car too. I just find them so , so useful and great for changes in temperature etc. I'm wearing another one today in fact - a dirty pink/mauve and rust combo from Lululemon in a flat knit - over a rusty print silk blouse , black trousers and cream boots.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/making-those-white-shooties-work-wiw-82719/page/2#post-2056876 Fri, 30 Aug 2019 17:51:20 +0000 Roxanna 2056876@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've not seen you in a wrap before and I really love it. Does it get in the way/become too fussy when you are getting in and out of the car for work?</p> <p>Of course I had not thought I'd extending the warm/cool combo to make up! How genius!!

Especially love your hair, earrings and make up. So polished!<br />As for a layering white top - I would try long sleeve knit top with some detail - either asymmetric hem or a twisted or draped cut, to keep it interesting and different from just a plain white tee.&nbsp;<br />Here is an example I found from All Saints:</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.allsaints.eu/women/t-shirts/allsaints-duma-ls-tee/?colour=4194&amp;category=824">https://www.allsaints.eu/women.....tegory=824</a></p> <p>Fabric looks a bit thin maybe but their quality is usually good. Have a top which is almost 10 years old and still looks like new.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/making-those-white-shooties-work-wiw-82719/page/2#post-2056776 Fri, 30 Aug 2019 10:52:29 +0000 gryffin 2056776@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lisa - just wanted to chime in tonsay you look spectacular. Great jeans! Love the white footwear w them. Very special and super elegant. You wear gray so well, it loves you. The wrap and bag are brilliant together. I love the first tee that Deborah posted, simple but the angles and drape make it look very special. I could really see you in that. It’s like the Joie armelio sweater, that was so popular for good reason, in tee form. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/making-those-white-shooties-work-wiw-82719/page/2#post-2056730 Fri, 30 Aug 2019 01:40:18 +0000 notsaf 2056730@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this look on you, Lisa!

I won’t do white footwear myself, so I have no useful advice for you in that regard. However, the shoes look terrific, and I can see how a great white top will help them be more workable. I am always on the lookout for white tops but it’s a challenge — so many are too thin, too clingy, or not great quality. And then invariably they get stained... Sometimes it seems something with a pattern including white can work better for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/making-those-white-shooties-work-wiw-82719/page/2#post-2056313 Wed, 28 Aug 2019 11:31:41 +0000 Elizabeth P 2056313@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>This looks fantastic Lisa, I'm glad you got the shooties out to play.&nbsp; Although I'm not glad it was cool enough to want to put your toes away :(&nbsp; We had a cool day yesterday too, but back to high 20's today.&nbsp; Summer is just soooo short! <br /></div><div><br /></div><div>Re a white top... given "my" white is optic white, I struggle a bit in winter as well, but I look dead in cream or off-whites, so struggle it is.&nbsp; I look for texture, and heft.&nbsp; I definitely have thin white sweaters that read spring, but I also have some that are thicker, cabled, etc that I feel are okay for fall.&nbsp; I like tee Deborah posted.<br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/making-those-white-shooties-work-wiw-82719/page/2#post-2056299 Wed, 28 Aug 2019 10:58:25 +0000 Gail 2056299@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love everything about this combo, wear it on repeat girlfriend !

I love all the items and the combination is very chic. I like the white shooties - especially the contrasting black. It harmonizes with the greys in your outfit.<br /> The bag! I want it!

It’s 21C here today!</p> <p>You look great. I really like the shoes in this combination. With the stripe in the jeans and your hair I don’t think you need to add more lightness/white. But have you thought about a fine gauge silk/cotton blend or silk/wool blend sweater? I have a few (usually about 20/80) and I am a fan. The silk softens the look and feel of the cotton or wool and adds a little lustre. </p> <p>I love the RM bag too and am now going to spend the rest of the day trying to resist the urge to look at the RM site. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/making-those-white-shooties-work-wiw-82719#post-2056250 Wed, 28 Aug 2019 02:45:34 +0000 Anonymous 2056250@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz - I can’t remember the name , and the only place I could find the photo was from the store’s web archive . It was a spring /summer collection piece that I purchased on sale in June , I think . </p> <p>Sterling - sorry , I’m not sure what you mean here . The booties ? No, I don’t keep things I don’t want because of return costs . These I kept for other reasons - even though I couldn’t figure out how to wear them </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/making-those-white-shooties-work-wiw-82719#post-2056249 Wed, 28 Aug 2019 02:44:15 +0000 Anonymous 2056249@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lisa, you look fab. Your white snootiest reminds fed me that my white cut out booties need similar weather. They look like too. U h in summer but are not warm enough for cold weather. I have 2 white toppers for cool, not cold weather..an old cotton loose weave Pendelton cardigan ( it is similar to crochet) and an EF white jean jacket made of linen, not denim. I think EF has a white linen jacket again this year but in a different style. The weight of the handkerchief linen is just right. The white shoes brighten the grey you are wearing. Great idea. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/making-those-white-shooties-work-wiw-82719#post-2056241 Wed, 28 Aug 2019 02:24:20 +0000 SarahD8 2056241@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is such a great outfit, Lisa! I love it from top to toe, and I especially like how you're exploring that gray/rust combination using makeup. I would not have thought to do that!</p> <p>Re: a white top for fall, I really like <b>missvee</b>'s idea that pale blue or blush would work instead of/in addition to white. I think on your recent thread about your style direction your vision involved a few bits of pale blue and pink to contrast with your dark neutrals, right? I think those same pieces could also help your white shooties work into outfits. Don't buy something just to make the stupid shooties work -- you'll only resent them more. ;-p </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/making-those-white-shooties-work-wiw-82719#post-2056234 Wed, 28 Aug 2019 01:52:36 +0000 Suz 2056234@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Have to go back to read the comments but I love the outfit! The shooties, wrap, and bag are spectacular! Which RM bag is that? Do you know the name?&nbsp; </p>
