The skirt may indeed be easier in summer with short sleeved tops and sandals.<br /> The yellow outfit is bright and cheerful and the party outfit rocks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/may-round-up#post-2203513 Fri, 18 Jun 2021 21:20:00 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2203513@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Idk how I missed this earlier. The 3 outfits are all great and you know I love the stack of berries. Looking forward to seeing/hearing how it goes with the new work bag. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/may-round-up#post-2203511 Fri, 18 Jun 2021 21:07:32 +0000 Sal 2203511@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good idea! I have an option that might work… </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/may-round-up#post-2203438 Fri, 18 Jun 2021 16:20:22 +0000 Zaeobi 2203438@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YLF in yellow, &amp; the 'outfit of the night' :)</p> <p>How about pairing the yellow blazer with a pink or white scarf instead? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/may-round-up#post-2200797 Sun, 06 Jun 2021 17:00:34 +0000 kellygirl 2200797@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Terrific looks! My, you do wear yellow so well. I love how the slightly different shades add depth! I think you should play with the dark skirt and add some color or texture some where else to add some punch. It's a lovely outfit but lacks the contrast/drama of the other two. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/may-round-up#post-2200566 Sat, 05 Jun 2021 05:12:02 +0000 Brooklyn 2200566@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, it all looks good to me. I love how you tied the scarf in 1.</p> <p>Re the midi skirt - I do find midaxi length skirts with a straight hem harder to wear. I got this Fuzzi midaxi skirt and actually had it made into an asymmetric skirt because it just felt too voluminous. Maybe your skirt will feel different in warmer weather when you can show more skin. Don’t forget you could switch out the buttons too for more colour/contrast. Or shorten it a little. Lots of options. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/may-round-up#post-2200538 Sat, 05 Jun 2021 02:27:24 +0000 Sally 2200538@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look amazing in yellow and really suit blazers.&nbsp; I admire your organisation in your wardrobe, however this challenge is making me think more about what works and what doesn't so I can see that more oganisation would be a good thing for me.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/may-round-up#post-2200466 Fri, 04 Jun 2021 20:28:52 +0000 Sal 2200466@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree Angie, when I looked at Brooklyn's asymetric skirts I realised that the shape of them is so much better, less "blocky", and maybe that is something I should be seeking out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/may-round-up#post-2200428 Fri, 04 Jun 2021 15:52:24 +0000 Angie 2200428@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was just thinking that the expanse of black is what is letting you down with the skirt.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/may-round-up#post-2200304 Fri, 04 Jun 2021 06:43:58 +0000 Minaminu 2200304@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You wear pinks and yellow beautifully!

The skirt is black linen with white stitching and large statement buttons.&nbsp; I think I will put it aside until summer and re-evaluate.&nbsp; I am trying to move away from large swathes of black (it is a slow process...)&nbsp; And yes after a very challenging 2020 with work it is great to have had a really strong start to the year.</p> <p>Smittie - thanks - it was lovely as it was someone I don't know terribly well.&nbsp; The backpack is very nice and strong and well made.&nbsp; It is not a huge back - it fits my 15 inch laptop, charger, mouse, two notebooks, headphones, makeup purse, glasses, phone and sunglasses but there is not much left over room.&nbsp; If I wanted to bike and bring a change of clothes it would be a tight squeeze (and I would definitely struggle to get lunch in as well).&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>Thank you Lyn!&nbsp; I love the dress too - in its first four years I wore it solo but I have worn it three times with a jacket now and am loving this version.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/may-round-up#post-2199208 Mon, 31 May 2021 15:30:39 +0000 Katerina 2199208@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sal, I love everything!

KILLER to the Power of KILLER :)</p> <p>The yellow blazer outfit is smashing, and the scarf looks fab! </p> <p>What is it about the skirt that feels off? Is it black? </p> <p>Great that you had an excellent work month. Long may it continue. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/may-round-up#post-2199187 Mon, 31 May 2021 13:34:53 +0000 smittie 2199187@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>“ One lovely person said it was the outfit of the night! ”<br /> Aw that’s so nice to hear.

Do you like your other black midi and culottes better than this skirt? Which one would you grab? Perhaps gift the other one to someone who would appreciate it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/may-round-up#post-2199101 Mon, 31 May 2021 00:38:52 +0000 Sal 2199101@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks NemosMom - I think it is that I have another black midi skirt plus a pair of black culottes....they sort of all take the same role.&nbsp; It cost me $20 and is a lovely linen designer skirt.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/may-round-up#post-2199067 Sun, 30 May 2021 21:22:58 +0000 nemosmom 2199067@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look smashing in yellow, Sal! The party outfit is fab, too! Not sure what you say with the skirt - what about pairing it with more texture? Like a chunky sweater or boots? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/may-round-up#post-2199055 Sun, 30 May 2021 20:28:11 +0000 Sal 2199055@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi all</p> <p>I have already posted a few May photos and I also have several I am not at all happy with so just a small selection of outfits to end the month.<br /> 90s redux in yellow and blue. I quite liked this when I wore it but on reflection could have done better with my scarf!!</p> <p>My new thrifted skirt. I may pass this on - it feels a bit drab on me and I am not sure what wardrobe hole it fits. It is a lovely skirt though.</p> <p>Party outfit - wore the dress in the end with some extra bling. One lovely person said it was the outfit of the night! It was comfortable and I felt great - so thank you to the forum for your support.</p> <p>Finally - Just a glimpse of my walking outfit - an unusual palette for me but I did like it!</p> <p>Into the closet - Levis rib cage ankle straights and my Bellroy work backpack. This only arrived late last week with one wear to date. Out - white jeans to be converted to shorts come in summer.</p> <p>A great month for me work wise- but not style wise with the exception of the party outfit.</p> <p>Thanks for looking. </p>
