And you guys are like *4* Charlie's Angels... Looks like y'all had a blast. Love the orange handbag! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pics-and-purchases-from-yesterdays-gathering#post-520764 Wed, 25 Jan 2012 23:26:23 +0000 CocoLion 520764@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks all of the swooning over the pets, I am completely nuts about animals; when I stay with my sister I don't miss my own dogs/cats/horses/cows so much because I have company.</p> <p>Regarding the Cons, I have come to the conclusion that there are some categories of attire that are almost all Made in China; I think it's due to the high quality of labor there! These categories are: sweaters, athletic shoes, lingerie. Also, many leather goods such as shoes and bags are made there, the alternative being Italian goods which I do own and purchase but they are so much more expensive. So, ladies, I am starting to accept that buying domestically is a goal, not an absolute. </p> <p>The coral jeans ARE Made in USA. It is easy to find knit tops and jeans made here! (Yay)</p> <p>The sweater is a size M, too big for my upper half, but still too tight around my thighs/hips. When life hands you a pear, don't wear stripes across your hips or thighs. Good thing I didn't buy it but I may go back and get the skinnies. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pics-and-purchases-from-yesterdays-gathering#post-520758 Wed, 25 Jan 2012 23:22:47 +0000 Mochi 520758@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful, radiant women! What a fun night; I'm vicariously enjoying it. I love the handbag. I love the coral jeans. I think I like the sweater. Too bad about Converse but it's almost impossible to find things not made in China these days. </p> <p>Meow! My own kitty is sitting across my lap as I write this </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pics-and-purchases-from-yesterdays-gathering#post-520745 Wed, 25 Jan 2012 23:13:18 +0000 rae 520745@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh, Siamese and a marble tabby! I have one of each of those! &gt;^..^&lt;</p> <p>Ahem, okay, back to the matter at hand: I really like both the skinnies and the sweater. One possible concern is that the sweater is pretty long. Do you wear long pants/skinnies in the summer? Or would you wear this sweater into winter? I can't remember what the weather is like in NorCal, so I may be completely off the mark. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pics-and-purchases-from-yesterdays-gathering#post-520689 Wed, 25 Jan 2012 22:21:12 +0000 Carole 520689@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a gorgeous bunch of gals! You all look fantastic and like you are having a blast together.</p> <p>Love the coral skinnies!!!!! perfect with the gray cons. I'm not a huge fan of horizontal stripes, but you are so tiny you can get away with it. Fab bag, too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pics-and-purchases-from-yesterdays-gathering#post-520685 Wed, 25 Jan 2012 22:16:11 +0000 Inge 520685@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh thank you so much for posting these pics, Denise. I just know it was a magical day. Each and everyone of you has such a distinctive style, all just as stunning!</p> <p>Your new bag is gorgeous, I love the coral skinnies and the Converse too (I know you want to buy locally made products though). I love stripes, so the idea of the cardigan definitely appeals to me, but there's something about this one, I can't put my finger on it. Perhaps it's the hem that looks a little stretched? How did it look unbuttoned?</p> <p>*waving to those cute lounging pets* </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pics-and-purchases-from-yesterdays-gathering#post-520679 Wed, 25 Jan 2012 22:12:35 +0000 Sylvie 520679@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aww, looks like you had a fantastic time. And now after seeing Marley's I *want* a pair of lace up boots.</p> <p>I like the skinnies but am not as much a fan of the cardigan. The bag is great though - I know I would have never noticed it walking by in a store but you have a good eye. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pics-and-purchases-from-yesterdays-gathering#post-520677 Wed, 25 Jan 2012 22:09:28 +0000 Suz 520677@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What fantastic pictures! Thank you for sharing these, Denise. You all look so amazingly stylish and wonderful. </p> <p>I love the jeans on you. I can see these getting lots of play come spring. I like the cardi, too. As for the bag, I almost swooned. The shape of that and the colour and only $33???? Talk about a bargain! </p> <p>Your sister's kitties and dog are adorable. And now that there is pet fur all over your purchases, there is no taking anything back. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pics-and-purchases-from-yesterdays-gathering#post-520624 Wed, 25 Jan 2012 21:28:05 +0000 Jem 520624@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm glad you got to have so much fun together! It sounds like it was a great night. I love the jeans on you. Not completely sold on the cardigan and yay for converse! (I just got some, too). And, yay, for sleeping kitties (and dogs), so cute! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pics-and-purchases-from-yesterdays-gathering#post-520614 Wed, 25 Jan 2012 21:14:51 +0000 MsMary 520614@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>SO FUN!!! Denise, thank you so much for instigating such a great day and evening! You are just as fab in person as you are in cyberspace!</p> <p>That photo of the four of you at the gallery is just priceless -- look at you all rocking the neutrals!</p> <p>LOVE the coral skinnies and LOVE the striped cardi!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pics-and-purchases-from-yesterdays-gathering#post-520609 Wed, 25 Jan 2012 21:02:09 +0000 modgrl 520609@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Waves to happy YLF girls! I am so happy that you shared these shots with us. The converse are great, sorry to hear that they are not made in the USA. Can you make an exception? The skinnies are amazing, are they made in the USA? I love the little tig bag, that shape is one of my favorites. Of course the lounging out fur babies are so adorable. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pics-and-purchases-from-yesterdays-gathering#post-520585 Wed, 25 Jan 2012 20:39:11 +0000 Transcona Shannon 520585@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a gorgeous group of ladies! I hope one day to attend a YLF gathering!</p> <p>I LOVE LOVE LOVE you in those coral skinnies Denise - they fit perfectly and I adore the colour...speaking of colour, I'm also loving the sweater on you. Not too many could pull of the length of the cardi and the width of the stripes, but you look fantastic in it!</p> <p>Extra photos of fur babies always appreciated! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pics-and-purchases-from-yesterdays-gathering#post-520579 Wed, 25 Jan 2012 20:31:55 +0000 CocoLion 520579@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YLF gatherings are the best! I highly recommend attending as many as you can! Thank you Khris, Marley, Vicki, Rae and Maryk for making it happen.</p> <p>#1 -- picture from gallery on La Brea.<br /> #2 -- beautiful Marley<br /> #3 -- beautiful Marley and beautiful Mary<br /> #4 -- some coral skinnies I was contemplating at Nordstom. From Citizens of Humanity, what do you think? I would not style them like this, I would wear lighter shoes and a different top, obviously, this is a cami.<br /> #5 -- a sweater I was contemplating at Nordstrom. What do you think?<br /> #6 -- my new Converse. Oh no! I saw they are Made in China.(!) Are there any athletic shoes still made in the US?<br /> #7 -- new orange-y bag from Macy's Tignanello. Leather, $33.<br /> #8 -- WIW today, I'm covered in my sisters pets! Yellow Lab Mick's head is falling off the side of the bed. </p>
