Love the jeans! Love the navy sandals. I find when I wear navy I much prefer navy shoes over black. Worth hanging on to for those occasions.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oldies-also-for-a-casual-dinner-out-8622#post-2276273 Mon, 08 Aug 2022 08:54:15 +0000 Bijou 2276273@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hope you had a great evening out, I've been finding it quite a thrill to be out again!</p> <p>This is a great outfit and you look elegant and comfortable, I know that there are many items in my wardrobe that I would not buy again, but it does not mean that they are no longer worth keeping. I have quite a few pairs of heels that I hold onto on the basis that at least I will never have to buy heels for a special occasion again. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oldies-also-for-a-casual-dinner-out-8622#post-2276182 Sun, 07 Aug 2022 20:00:46 +0000 Star (Lise) 2276182@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fab Lisa.&nbsp; I too have quite a few pieces in my wardrobe that I would not buy now but there is nothing wrong with them and they feel good when I wear them occasionally.&nbsp; Sometimes they even become stars again.&nbsp; Hence I am not too quick to cull. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oldies-also-for-a-casual-dinner-out-8622#post-2276180 Sun, 07 Aug 2022 19:24:37 +0000 Sal 2276180@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great look- crop flares are brilliant on you.</p> <p>Your hair colour is fabulous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oldies-also-for-a-casual-dinner-out-8622#post-2276158 Sun, 07 Aug 2022 15:52:30 +0000 LJP 2276158@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all ! &nbsp;I loved that outfit so much I wore it all day - haha. &nbsp;Just felt so comfortable and not self-conscious about anything fitting properly or being unflattering. &nbsp;</p> <p>Kelly - I know what you mean about the Fly London signature wedge . Although I'm now mad at myself for passing along a black pair that had an ankle strap after deciding they were "not me" (worn maybe 5-6 times) . &nbsp;They may not be trendy or current-looking but they are absolutely perfect for me for work. &nbsp;I can stand and walk forever in them, and they give me a bit of height which I love. &nbsp; I hope to make them part of my style going forward . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oldies-also-for-a-casual-dinner-out-8622#post-2276154 Sun, 07 Aug 2022 15:40:21 +0000 Angie 2276154@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>FAB! &nbsp;</p> <p>I like the way the sandals perfectly match the tunic. &nbsp;Cropped flares are a classic essential for you, and you wear them with panache. Same with olive pants </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oldies-also-for-a-casual-dinner-out-8622#post-2276153 Sun, 07 Aug 2022 15:38:26 +0000 kellygirl 2276153@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look chic as ever! You must have a great closet to shop. Your hair, jewelry and make up are impeccable. I wish I could had that attention to detail. So perfectly done--not too little and not too much. You skin looks radiant! I can see why you love those cropped flares too--they are perfection! More love for the FL - I've always wanted a pair but they just don't fit my feet. I'm kind of over their signature style wedge but I love this model. So sleek! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oldies-also-for-a-casual-dinner-out-8622#post-2276142 Sun, 07 Aug 2022 13:57:55 +0000 Mirjana 2276142@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thumbs up from me! You always made the black outfit so interesting, Queen of black styling outfit. Adorable! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oldies-also-for-a-casual-dinner-out-8622#post-2276118 Sun, 07 Aug 2022 09:27:39 +0000 Jaime 2276118@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Pretty and polished. Just shows it is not the pieces (referring to the tunic you would not buy right now) but the styling. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oldies-also-for-a-casual-dinner-out-8622#post-2276108 Sun, 07 Aug 2022 05:00:28 +0000 Brooklyn 2276108@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looking good! Crop flares are a classic and a signature look for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oldies-also-for-a-casual-dinner-out-8622#post-2276104 Sun, 07 Aug 2022 04:16:25 +0000 LJP 2276104@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>40C ?? I would die. I know I would . It was 30C here yesterday and that was bad enough - and then dropping to 18C ….crazy weather . And now hazy from the forest fires in BC too . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oldies-also-for-a-casual-dinner-out-8622#post-2276102 Sun, 07 Aug 2022 03:18:00 +0000 CarolS 2276102@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great, Lisa! The tunic is really lovely and I can see why you love those crops. You wear them sooo well! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oldies-also-for-a-casual-dinner-out-8622#post-2276101 Sun, 07 Aug 2022 02:15:45 +0000 Jenn 2276101@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So agree with the difference it makes to show a little arm and ankle. You look great, but more importantly, it makes me happy to see you feeling comfortable and at ease with an outfit that even if not a perfect representation of your vision, makes use of why you have and suits the weather, the activity, and the moment. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oldies-also-for-a-casual-dinner-out-8622#post-2276100 Sun, 07 Aug 2022 02:02:25 +0000 Indigoprint 2276100@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it alot! I agree denim is the best choice for your evening. I love the juxtaposition of the tops print with your darkish denim and cross band sandal.<br /> It looks composed. Well done </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oldies-also-for-a-casual-dinner-out-8622#post-2276088 Sun, 07 Aug 2022 01:08:58 +0000 merwoman 2276088@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That jacket is a great piece to have on hand, instant outfit elevation and more polished with the dark denim. I hear you about the crops!!<br />Please send your cooler temps east! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oldies-also-for-a-casual-dinner-out-8622#post-2276085 Sun, 07 Aug 2022 00:47:51 +0000 catherine 2276085@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look very pretty, feminine, and cool.

Love ear cuff and your spiky hair ( envy - since mine just go flat ). Everything works and looks fresh! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oldies-also-for-a-casual-dinner-out-8622#post-2276080 Sun, 07 Aug 2022 00:09:19 +0000 Suz 2276080@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit, Lisa! I love the cropped flares on you. What is it about that style that is so great on you and especially you? I think you have very lovely ankles or something, or maybe the whole lower calf. Whatever, it just works, so definitely don't give up on that style!&nbsp;</p> <p>Looks like a really nice outfit for the purpose -- I like the dynamism of the pattern on the tunic.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oldies-also-for-a-casual-dinner-out-8622#post-2276074 Sat, 06 Aug 2022 23:02:42 +0000 Janet 2276074@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m sweating just thinking about jeans here, but love them on you!

Cropped flares look especially good in summer I feel…that small bit of ankle/leg just works to lighten up dark denim. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oldies-also-for-a-casual-dinner-out-8622#post-2276058 Sat, 06 Aug 2022 20:56:47 +0000 Sloper 2276058@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>thumbs up from me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oldies-also-for-a-casual-dinner-out-8622#post-2276056 Sat, 06 Aug 2022 20:47:47 +0000 LJP 2276056@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gee, we've now been out twice this summer!  Two more times than last year, I think.   Social occasions have taken a back seat for the past few years, for obvious reasons , so it's kind of exciting to have invitations out to see old friends.  In past years, I'd have kept up with new clothes  to wear out, but I'm now literally <b>shopping my own closet for social occasions.  </b></p> <p>I've owned this <b>linen tunic for about 5 years</b>, and it gets worn once or twice a summer.  Would I buy it again now? Probably not, as it doesn't represent where I want to go with my style, but there also isn't anything "wrong" with it, so I'll certainly hang on to it and wear it when the mood strikes. I don't wear much blue, which is why it doesn't get worn, but <b>today was unseasonably chilly (</b>18C I think) so perfect weather for it today - errand running and a bbq dinner tonight with friends.  I usually wear it with white jeans, but I'm really not feeling white denim at all now. I'm happy with these cropped flared jeans here as it makes the outfit a little less country-club-ish than white denim would .I also like showing ankles and forearms in an outfit like this -adds a bit of polish and feminity to a shirt/jeans combo (at least I hope it does!).</p> <p><b>Jeans </b>are 2 seasons old, and you will have to pry my <b>cropped flares</b> out of my cold dead hands as I will never stop wearing them. Ever. Lol. </p> <p><b>Sandals are also 5 years old </b>and standing up remarkably well. They get worn maybe 3-4 times a summer - again, I don't wear a lot of blue so they are just extras in my closet. I tried on a pair of black/white stitching ones today (same brand, same style) and am going to see if I can hold out for a further reduction in price before buying them. It's a great platform height that is so easy to walk in.</p> <p>Comments and thoughts always welcome! </p> <p>linen tunic - White Stuff UK<br /> jeans - JAG<br /> sandals - Fly London<br /> fragrance - Tom Ford Eau de Soleil Blanc<br /> makeup - Seint/Nars </p>
