Maybe next year when my lifestyle "should" involve a day job, but I thought that was going to be this year, so not much new for me.</p> <p>Joy - I noticed The Vivienne Files added a lot of flannel to her 12 month projects this time (I try not to look at hers until I've done mine). I agree, a plaid would be nice.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ocean-park-project---september#post-1841800 Sat, 02 Sep 2017 21:17:57 +0000 Anonymous 1841800@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wonderful! I like the bag, blue loafers and those pants best. Do you wear flannel tartan? A plaid in the colors of the scarf would be gorgeous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ocean-park-project---september#post-1841799 Sat, 02 Sep 2017 21:13:17 +0000 Jenni NZ 1841799@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good point about the lines of the bag! I see it now. Told you I would bow to your superior wisdom! And yes the earrings go really well. It's a pity you don't actually own all of this and so can't wear it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ocean-park-project---september#post-1841762 Sat, 02 Sep 2017 15:52:18 +0000 Rambling Ann 1841762@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sterling - great point about the textures. Fall is easier to find to find those kinds of clothes, I think.</p> <p>Jenni - what I love about the bag is how its lines echo the lines in the painting. If they'd had it in a different, more subtle color, I would have "bought" it. But overall, it goes with some of the other accessories, so I added a couple to the outfit, see if it helps balance it out.</p> <p>Emily - one of my project "rules" is that I am untethered by reality as far as price or fit. What I like about it is I can imagine being on a treasure hunt for pants at my price point, now that I see how it works with the jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ocean-park-project---september#post-1841698 Sat, 02 Sep 2017 08:44:46 +0000 Style Fan 1841698@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this collection.&nbsp; This is my favourite too.&nbsp; I prefer darker colours (I am not a pastel person) and that teal bag ISDF.&nbsp; I like different textures of cashmere, leather and silk (?).&nbsp; Gorgeous.<br />I have wanted a teal bag forever.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ocean-park-project---september#post-1841692 Sat, 02 Sep 2017 07:21:31 +0000 Emily K 1841692@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love those pants, though IRL I do NOT love the price. &nbsp;Ouch. &nbsp;I can imagine the shoes going with quite a few different outfits--such a pretty, soft denim-y color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ocean-park-project---september#post-1841688 Sat, 02 Sep 2017 06:22:56 +0000 Jenni NZ 1841688@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love those ankle pants. The only thing here I don't personally think fits is the greenish/teal handbag. To me it's too green and there is only the tiniest bit of that colour in the painting. But it's your project and I bow to your superior wisdom! I feel quite invested in your project and wait eagerly for the 1st of each month </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ocean-park-project---september#post-1841614 Fri, 01 Sep 2017 22:39:02 +0000 Anonymous 1841614@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It could be the navy. &nbsp;I think it is the TEXTURE! &nbsp;All those different textures together speak to me. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ocean-park-project---september#post-1841606 Fri, 01 Sep 2017 22:04:46 +0000 Carla 1841606@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yummy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ocean-park-project---september#post-1841603 Fri, 01 Sep 2017 22:02:06 +0000 Rambling Ann 1841603@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sterling - Is it the navy? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ocean-park-project---september#post-1841602 Fri, 01 Sep 2017 21:56:21 +0000 Anonymous 1841602@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OH! &nbsp;This is my favorite yet! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ocean-park-project---september#post-1841601 Fri, 01 Sep 2017 21:56:06 +0000 Rambling Ann 1841601@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Outfit 2 - edited to add teal accents to balance the handbag.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ocean-park-project---september#post-1841600 Fri, 01 Sep 2017 21:55:14 +0000 Rambling Ann 1841600@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Outfit 1 </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ocean-park-project---september#post-1841597 Fri, 01 Sep 2017 21:54:13 +0000 Rambling Ann 1841597@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hardly thought about clothes at all this month. I think IRL I had 3 occasions to get out of farm and ranchwear, hardly enough reason to own more than a 10 item "Clearly Claire" capsule. But I am going to see this through to the end. September is transitional weather, and we have some new stuff from NAS anxious to be worn, so this month, I picked a base outfit to go with the NAS leather jacket, adding some more darker neutrals. I think the cashmere sweater would also work with the pants. I prefer the backpack with the jacket, the new handbag with the sweater, but either would work for both. And since the pants are a little dressier, I thought an elegant silver necklace (imagine it with a 24" chain) would be a nice addition to the pile of accessories.<div><br /></div><div>As always, if you haven't read any of my previous posts, I suggest you start with the January introduction to the project.&nbsp;</p> <p>This month, I'm going to add two comments for each of the two outfits I'm imagining, so I can use the finds. These outfits aren't so evocative of the painting as some of the earlier ones, but the overall collection still hangs, I think.
