I really like the last one with the crochet top layered over a longer cami. I have a similar top in a coral shade and haven't been able to layer it properly because the cami underneath was too fitted and not long enough to peek out and help with proportions- this really helped!&nbsp;&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-cast-style#post-935096 Fri, 17 May 2013 17:17:46 +0000 Isabel 935096@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ WOW ! &nbsp;Yes, your cast style is killer. But even more so, it is nice to see that your wonderful smile has not changed throughout all this !! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-cast-style#post-935092 Fri, 17 May 2013 17:16:25 +0000 kellygirl 935092@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ @Texstyle: Are you sure they are too tight? I wonder if&nbsp;what you think is too tight might be just right. I guess you have to love the look though. I thought your olive khakis were perfect.&nbsp;<br />@rachylou: Thanks!<br />@Mona: These are the ones. I was questioning whether I went overboard on the baggy scale--lol! Glad you like the last one--that is one of the tops I crocheted. I don't wear it much though. Thanks for commenting! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-cast-style#post-935086 Fri, 17 May 2013 17:10:57 +0000 Mona 935086@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Kelly, your cast style is so gorgeous I can't stand it. Are the mint khakis the broken-in ones from GAP? I love the outfit and I don;t think they look too oversized?&nbsp;<br />I also really like the blue open mesh top in last outfit. Neon green peeking out from under is so fun. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-cast-style#post-935076 Fri, 17 May 2013 16:58:29 +0000 rachylou 935076@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Illness fashion is the best!<br /><br />The mints look boyfriend-big to me. Very stylish.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-cast-style#post-935019 Fri, 17 May 2013 15:42:31 +0000 texstyle 935019@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ kellygirl, yes, the olive baggies. As much as everyone else may love them, the sad truth is that I don't. It's partly the color, partly the baggy factor.&nbsp; I had some skinny olive cargos that I LOVED but then they felt too skinny after a few years and a couple of pounds gained. sigh. They still fit technically,&nbsp;but they just seem too tight for me to wear at my age. I think I really wanted to replace those with less tight ones and instead I opted for the baggies.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-cast-style#post-934974 Fri, 17 May 2013 14:55:13 +0000 kellygirl 934974@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Thanks, Texstyle! IKWYM about the bagginess. FWIW, I think if they "fit" in the traditional way, they are going to make me look more frumpy (like they are actually khaki pants from the 80's--y'know?) I could be wrong. I'm going to take a few photos today and make sure because I don't want a second pair if I'm committing a fashion crime. Are you talking about your olive khakis? Or are they navy? I remember you had the olive/blue pairing. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-cast-style#post-934971 Fri, 17 May 2013 14:50:29 +0000 texstyle 934971@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You are a true inspiration Kelly!&nbsp; So glad you can wear some pants - that does make things more interesting in spite of the darn cast. You look great. I'm on the fence still on the mint pants, but then again I'm on the fence with my khaki baggies too. Sounds like you have plenty of approval here for them so I guess it's settled. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-cast-style#post-934964 Fri, 17 May 2013 14:45:16 +0000 kellygirl 934964@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the nice comments! Getting dressed is good therapy it seems. I have a feeling that if I stayed in sweats all day I’d be wallowing in my own misery.&nbsp;</p> <p>@Angie: Lol! I’m getting there. I still prefer getting the blessing from the collective though!</p> <p>@Joy: Aww, thanks Joy. I think the necklace helped with that one--I can’t remember the last time I wore one but it certainly helps break up the stripes.</p> <p>@Ceit: Thanks!</p> <p>@sarah: That is hilarious! The same outfit on opposite coasts We are definitely on the same fashion wave length!</p> <p>@Carole and Cathy: Thank you and I appreciate the thumbs up on the slouch.&nbsp;</p> <p>@Anna, Caro, pil, Glory, Alicat: Thanks!</p> <p>@Parsley: Thank you and OMG, yes! Just making coffee and lunches is a task. Honestly, though, I feel pretty fortunate that I’m not totally old and decrepit. I can still do so much by myself and thank goodness that I can still drive! I have this cast for two more weeks--I’m lobbying my doctor to get in a achilles boot instead of another cast after this. We’ll see. (He’s taking his sweet time getting back to me. Arghh!)</p> <p>@Rae: Lol! Ya, I’m not willing to cut anything. That would be too RATE, anyway :)</p> <p>@Shannon: Thank you--that is so kind. I’ve got to tell you that sloppy puts me over the edge. So glad that I’m still managing to avoid that look!&nbsp;</p> <p>@Mochi: LOL! I was laughing at DD the other day who looked at me as I was making my way to the car and said, “Mom, you look disabled!” Seriously? I can’t believe it took her over a week to notice that--teenagers!&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-cast-style#post-934904 Fri, 17 May 2013 13:37:03 +0000 Mochi 934904@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You are the most stylin' invalid ever. Your cat was slow to figure it out, but better late than never.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-cast-style#post-934903 Fri, 17 May 2013 13:35:52 +0000 Transcona Shannon 934903@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ How can you make a cast look so good Kelly? I think each of these outfits is brilliant and I constantly look at your style for inspiration for non-work outfits. You have such a gift of putting together a casual outfit that always looks completely stylish, put together, and never, ever sloppy. I think that takes real skill. The mint pants? Perfect.<br /><br />One of my cats hates it when I wear shoes in the house - scared of the sound it makes. Poor Davey was probably put off by the noise of the cast. Glad he's reclaimed your lap - what a sweetie!<br /><br /><br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-cast-style#post-934895 Fri, 17 May 2013 13:29:58 +0000 Anonymous 934895@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You look wonderful, Kelly! &nbsp;I really like the mint pants, and the white belt is fantastic.<br /><br />And handsome Davey!!! &nbsp;Sweet, sweet boy. &nbsp;George sends friendly purrs. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-cast-style#post-934836 Fri, 17 May 2013 11:42:29 +0000 Glory 934836@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Fab once again Miss Kelly!&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-cast-style#post-934751 Fri, 17 May 2013 06:28:48 +0000 rae 934751@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Oh, yay for pants! And you didn't even have to cut a pant leg off as I sometimes see. I'm laughing at poor kitty keeping his distance from your cast - glad he is over it! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-cast-style#post-934746 Fri, 17 May 2013 05:39:14 +0000 AJ 934746@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ This must be a Magic Cast because your style quotient is HIGH!&nbsp; Luv how the cast hasn't slowed you down.&nbsp; <br /><br />Now I've got that song in my head:<br />&nbsp;"Ain't nothing gonna break my stride / I'm running and I won't touch ground / Oh no, I've got to keep on moving."<b></b> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-cast-style#post-934702 Fri, 17 May 2013 04:25:29 +0000 Parsley 934702@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Yay for being able to wear pants! Having a cast does make you appreciate the little things that you usually take for granted, doesn't it?<br />Every one of your outfits is fab, so it's hard to choose.<br />I do love the mint pants outfit- they look great with the striped top, and the denim vest is another favorite.<br /><br />How much longer do you have to have the cast, Kelly?<br /><br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-cast-style#post-934695 Fri, 17 May 2013 04:18:05 +0000 pil 934695@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Terrific looks as usual, Kelly. I like the Cons with your mint pants, and you're wearing the new denim vest already too! And kitty is so cute. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-cast-style#post-934681 Fri, 17 May 2013 04:02:52 +0000 cciele 934681@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ The mint is supa-fresh! Definitely oversized, but you make it look intentional. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-cast-style#post-934675 Fri, 17 May 2013 03:47:31 +0000 Caro in Oz 934675@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ YLF &amp; you are doing it with a cast:) https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-cast-style#post-934625 Fri, 17 May 2013 02:26:21 +0000 annagybe 934625@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Love the mint pants outfit. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-cast-style#post-934622 Fri, 17 May 2013 02:24:55 +0000 Carole 934622@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You win the award for the best dressed cast bearing person in the world!!! All outfits are OUTSTANDING and love the mint jeans, seems like the perfect amount of slouch to me:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-cast-style#post-934618 Fri, 17 May 2013 02:22:33 +0000 sarah 934618@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ HAHAHAHAH!!!! I wore the EXACT same outfit with my mint khakis and blue/white striped tee, white belt, and white jean jacket. I don't know why I just think that is so funny. I didn't have that stunning blue leg accessory that bookends the tee so perfectly, however, so you've really taken it up a notch.<br /><br />You are rockin' that cast style, Kelly - you look GREAT. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-cast-style#post-934569 Fri, 17 May 2013 01:31:57 +0000 Anonymous 934569@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look wonderful Kelly -- I am glad your D-man is back for cuddles. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-cast-style#post-934568 Fri, 17 May 2013 01:31:11 +0000 Anonymous 934568@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kelly, your happy smile in spite of the cast means no one will even notice what you are wearing, even though all these outfits are wonderful on you. If I had to pick a favorite, it would be the first one . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-cast-style#post-934567 Fri, 17 May 2013 01:31:04 +0000 Angie 934567@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Trust your style instincts, Kelly. They rock :)<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-cast-style#post-934563 Fri, 17 May 2013 01:28:57 +0000 kellygirl 934563@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Thanks, Suz and Angie!<br />@Suz: Davey has been hanging out under the bed lately. I don't know whether he's upset by the cast or the fact that I'm always clomping around the house. He usually sleeps next to me but hasn't since I got the cast. He is the same in every other way though--when he wants attention, he drops down right in front of me like a big ol' speed bump. Today he just hopped up like old times RE: the pants--thanks. Mint is up in rotation tomorrow so I'll see if I can review the fit--I thought they looked fine until I saw the picture.&nbsp;<br /><br />@Angie: Thank you! You made my day. I'm glad that you liked the mint--it was the one I was most unsure about! Light bottoms are new for me. Doubly glad that the hair getting a thumbs up!&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-cast-style#post-934557 Fri, 17 May 2013 01:23:21 +0000 Angie 934557@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Good job, Davey :)<br /><br />Kelly, there is nothing left to say but that your Cast Style is absolutely KILLER. The outfit with the mint pants is my best! <br /><br />And your longer 'do rocks big time. So digging the extra length! <br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-cast-style#post-934556 Fri, 17 May 2013 01:22:28 +0000 Suz 934556@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Hi, Kelly -<br />&nbsp;<br />You look so adorable it is ridiculous. No wonder kitty has curled up for a cuddle. Funny that he was put off by the cast!&nbsp;<br /><br />As far as the mint pants are concerned, I'm not too sure. They do look quite big here...but you're obviously in a weird position, and then in this series the eye may be comparing them to the dark ones on either side, which tend to "retreat." So I'm not sure. Bottom line (so to speak) if they are comfy and working for you, enjoy them!! But maybe wait to get a second pair.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-cast-style#post-934544 Fri, 17 May 2013 01:16:59 +0000 kellygirl 934544@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Managed to get some pants over my cast--some work better than others but it was fun to mix things up a bit (especially since it was cool.) I'd love to get your opinion on the mint khakis--do you think the fit is okay? Do they look too oversized? Sloppy or intentionally loose?&nbsp;Initially, I was going to return but with everything going on and the fact they fit over my cast, &nbsp;I changed my mind. I'm considering a second pair now.&nbsp;<br /><br />1. Last week<br />2. This week<br />3. Gratuitous kitty shot. Davey has finally warmed up to my cast and will sit on my lap again. Today was a good day!&nbsp;<br /><br />Thank you for looking.&nbsp;<br /><br /><br />
