Modern and polished. Simplicity with interesting details. Very LJP. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/putting-it-into-practice--recent-wiws#post-2412616 Sat, 09 May 2026 01:44:03 +0000 Aquamarine 2412616@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love seeing how you put your ideas/vision into practice. I always learn something from your posts. Great bomber, definitely a hero piece as Sarah says. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/putting-it-into-practice--recent-wiws#post-2412615 Sat, 09 May 2026 00:46:56 +0000 LJP 2412615@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all ! </p> <p>Dee : if I had a different /*better* body I’d tuck tops into bottoms but I get a very poochy effect when I do . I am quite short waisted and not thin anymore and it’s not a good look . Plus , this top has side slits and a finished bottom which allows it ti sit nicely overtop jeans . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/putting-it-into-practice--recent-wiws#post-2412614 Sat, 09 May 2026 00:40:57 +0000 kkards 2412614@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow love the way you’ve &nbsp;styled the YaYa jacket! So good! And the chocolate brown is chic and modern and love the jeans.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/putting-it-into-practice--recent-wiws#post-2412613 Sat, 09 May 2026 00:29:53 +0000 avicennia 2412613@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All excellent! You look very put together! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/putting-it-into-practice--recent-wiws#post-2412611 Sat, 09 May 2026 00:27:43 +0000 elena 2412611@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think both outfits are good - I love the printed jacket - and I agree the second is better: it definitely captures the elegant, modern, and sophisticated vibe you’re going for. Old Navy jeans are really good, aren’t they? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/putting-it-into-practice--recent-wiws#post-2412610 Sat, 09 May 2026 00:23:10 +0000 slim cat 2412610@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfits ! I love your printed bomber - fabulous piece ( unique and perfect on you ). <br />I can see what direction you are going - sleeker and more polished style altogether.&nbsp;<br />Very interesting necklace! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/putting-it-into-practice--recent-wiws#post-2412607 Sat, 09 May 2026 00:01:38 +0000 Indigoprint 2412607@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well done! I love the bomber too! much fun.<br /> I am going to look for that Zara T...<br /> I like the sleeve length. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/putting-it-into-practice--recent-wiws#post-2412604 Fri, 08 May 2026 23:13:04 +0000 Dee 2412604@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looking terrific LJP, modern and elegant.<br /> That silk bomber jacket is da bomb, no way I'd get rid of it either. You've done well with incorporating your colour palette and accessories, love the refined footwear and your Fish pendant is a wonderful colour accent. How do you feel about a half tuck or a belt with the longer jeans? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/putting-it-into-practice--recent-wiws#post-2412599 Fri, 08 May 2026 22:08:55 +0000 SarahD8 2412599@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>oooh very nice!</p> <p>I really like your use of chocolate brown as a dark neutral, and the new necklace is to die for -- absolutely worth building your color palette around.</p> <p>This:</p> <p>"I have a soft spot for the crazy silk printed bomber and will never get rid of it. It comes in handy in the most unexpected ways."</p> <p>Strikes me as an extremely important data point. Sounds like the jacket is really a hero piece in a way that transcends trends (unlike, say, barrel jeans which you are tiring of...). That speaks to your "fashion-forward" style word, which I actually thought was right on the money, in the sense that fashion-forward can sometimes be about trends (which you are *sometimes* interested in) and sometimes about transcending trends (e.g., avant garde items...I'm not sure if the bomber exactly qualifies as avant garde but it does seem to have that trend-transcending quality).</p> <p>I see your new palette in the bomber's print, too.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/putting-it-into-practice--recent-wiws#post-2412598 Fri, 08 May 2026 21:32:54 +0000 pirouette 2412598@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfits. I have an almost identical coat from Cos. I like both jeans and I love the brown flats and bag. I use the Cos coat as my trench coat from my list of essentials. Well done you are so focused you see a problem make a plan and begin the plan straight away. Keep going I can’t wait to see your journey as you progress the plan.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/putting-it-into-practice--recent-wiws#post-2412597 Fri, 08 May 2026 21:15:11 +0000 LJP 2412597@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I much preferred the second look, although the first one was fine. I have a soft spot for the crazy silk printed bomber and will never get rid of it. It comes in handy in the most unexpected ways.  The new longer jeans make me feel so much more "elegant" and put together than the barrels, which do have their place but are no longer my favourites.  Sometimes trendiness isn't always the answer .  </p> <p>#1 barrel jeans - Dear John<br />      tshirt - Zara <br />    sandals (dark brown ) Miz Mooz<br />      bag - (dark brown) Louenhide<br />      jacket - YaYa Woman </p> <p>#2 jeans - my new favourite item in my closet - Old Navy!<br />    same tshirt<br />    treated cotton  lined  car coat - Cos <br />      suede ballet flats - H&amp;M Premium<br />      necklace - Etsy - my other new favourite thing which has inspired my     recent colour palette project .</p> <p>My god I can't wait until my hair is fixed up next week. </p> <p>All comments and rooster hair jokes welcome.  And sincere apologies for flooding the forum . </p>
