You have such a great sense of style and you know how to choose&nbsp;things that fit your style descriptor!&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oh-joie#post-892779 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 21:31:40 +0000 Aida 892779@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Well you know I just love this outfit! Always happy to see those divine silk pants in action. I have also been keeping my cardigans buttoned up (except for my very long, BF style ones), your fix is fantastic. And good save too, white military-esq? So perfect for the season!<br /><br /> Your recent work looks have been outstanding, by the way. I hope you are feeling better about dressing for work with what you have!&nbsp;I think we've got similar methods of dressiness mixing for work; I feel like so many of your work outfits are something I would happily happily wear. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oh-joie#post-892525 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 16:39:52 +0000 Tina.b 892525@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ How clever to sew up the sweater, looks fabulous like that. So elegant paired with those Joie pants.love them with the booties! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oh-joie#post-892516 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 16:30:04 +0000 Transcona Shannon 892516@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Polished UWP!<br /><br />Love the sweater as a pullover and what a great way to re-invent the sweater and rescue it from the purge pile. It looks lovely with those silky trousers.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oh-joie#post-892453 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 15:26:39 +0000 deb 892453@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I really like the cardy as a pullover. And the pants, just darling.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oh-joie#post-892452 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 15:19:55 +0000 rae 892452@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Denise, that is probably it! That and Easter just days away.&nbsp;<br /><br />Deborah, it is a tapered silk pant. I've added a link to the Outnet above, since they seem to still have this color. They were more slouched atop the booties than tucked into them.&nbsp;<br /><br />Karie, yes, we have done&nbsp;a Shoptoberfest YLF meetup for two years running and are committed to making it an annual event. <a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/2012/02/03/a-california-cornucopia-of-fashion-and-friends/">Here is the blog post</a> from the very first one - some gals fly in from out of state!<br /><br />Suz, if I'm honest, I also had this cardi in the purge pile for a time! I like it so much better as a pullover.&nbsp;<br /><br />Dana, for whatever reason, my feet prefer a moderate heel doing this kind of work. Same for major travel walking. Might be the high arches? https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oh-joie#post-892408 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 14:10:15 +0000 Dana 892408@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Fab outfit! I really like the juxtaposition of the ladylike cardi, slouchy pants and the casual leather belt and boots. Can you really wear those boots all day? Lucky!&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oh-joie#post-892387 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 13:45:11 +0000 Thistle 892387@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Love this look on you. Chic with a hint of polish. Your style does seem to be evolving, and I have really enjoyed watching it.<br /><br />Another fab outfit! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oh-joie#post-892384 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 13:42:44 +0000 texstyle 892384@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ A new favorite of yours for me too Rae - looks so polished but in your style still. Love everything about this - esp. the sweater fix! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oh-joie#post-892367 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 13:25:25 +0000 amiable 892367@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Wow!&nbsp; Excellent!<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oh-joie#post-892358 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 13:13:08 +0000 ruthe 892358@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Love this look!<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oh-joie#post-892350 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 13:01:07 +0000 Jaime 892350@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Gorgeous! I love the trousers and the sweater works perfectly here. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oh-joie#post-892348 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 12:56:28 +0000 Suz 892348@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Joie, indeed -- Rae, you are a sight for sore eyes! This is just beyond fantastic! And I would love to copy this down to the last detail. The plaid pants are superb. And you know what? I had one of those cardigans from BR in navy and ended up purging it because no matter how I styled it, it felt "old lady" to me. But just look at you!&nbsp;<br /><br />(Well, maybe it would have helped if I was 25 years younger and trying to wear it, but on me, it didn't look intentional and fab as it does on you!)&nbsp;<br /><br />This is one of my fave outfits of yours, ever! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oh-joie#post-892323 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 11:49:34 +0000 pil 892323@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Excellent solution for the sweater, that's using your noggin! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oh-joie#post-892308 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 11:06:30 +0000 Karie 892308@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ First, I think this is my new favorite outfit of yours. You look very pretty, polished, and professional; yet you remain true to your UWP/SGT style. I love it!<br />Second, what is Octoberfest? I followed the link to your other post, was it a shopping trip last October/every October? https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oh-joie#post-892305 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 10:59:58 +0000 kkards 892305@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ love this outfit, polished yet simple https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oh-joie#post-892297 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 10:46:15 +0000 Anonymous 892297@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You look great! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oh-joie#post-892287 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 10:15:45 +0000 Marigold 892287@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Very nice!

You still maintain a definite sense of Rae &nbsp;:) Great look! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oh-joie#post-892265 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 09:14:42 +0000 Caro in Oz 892265@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I love these proportions on you rae - a great look imo. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oh-joie#post-892258 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 07:31:31 +0000 Deborah 892258@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Rae this is a really elegant outfit but without compromising your stye. &nbsp;Are these a wide leg pant? &nbsp;How did you get them to stay tucked inside your booties? https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oh-joie#post-892251 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 07:08:49 +0000 Scarlet 892251@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I don't catch every WIW, but you are just looking more amazing all the time. This is a really different look on you from what I think of, but it really works. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oh-joie#post-892234 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 05:30:11 +0000 CocoLion 892234@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I like this dressier look on you, it's on the polished side with the refined knit and non-denim bottoms. &nbsp;It's sophisticated and the sweater is so figure flattering as well. &nbsp;Are you busy due to spring break? &nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oh-joie#post-892233 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 05:18:12 +0000 rae 892233@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ A long, hard day at work was made easier with the slouchy Joie pants from <a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoptoberfest-loot-pic-heavy">Shoptoberfest</a> and the YLF Fab Find <a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/2012/01/27/seventeen-fab-finds/">Gold Button Sweater Jacket</a>. The jacket has been on the DL for a while because the buttons started gaping (no guess as to why, since my bust size has not changed). I just now got around to sewing up the front opening - I like it best done all the way up like a pullover, anyway, so I figured that would be an appropriate fix. Paired with cognac belt and booties, because earth tones help mitigate the 80s influence of the pants in my eye.&nbsp;<br /><br />Banana republic cardigan - Banana Republic<br />Men's belt - flea market<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://cache.theoutnet.com/product/363791">Joie microplaid pant</a>s - Rack<br />Report Marks booties - Amazon<br />Ted Baker bag - flea market
