I think Monki is pretty good for the price. It's priced similarly to Zara but is better quality in my opinion. They use more natural fibres. Admittedly the bronze top is synthetic (because it's metallic) but a lot of their stuff is cotton or a cotton blend, such as the green top in pic 6. I love it when retailers use natural fibres.</p> <p>And thanks Lyn, Cheryl, CG, Cee, Shevia and Windchime!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ready-for-2019/page/2#post-1985825 Wed, 26 Dec 2018 12:09:50 +0000 anchie 1985825@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have a great style. Whenever I see your outfits I start to think that I should wear more skirts myself. But then I remember that I don’t look that great in them as you :)<br /> We just got the Monki store - how is the quality? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ready-for-2019/page/2#post-1985754 Tue, 25 Dec 2018 20:23:58 +0000 lyn67 1985754@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Missed You, too, Brooklyn, hope you are&nbsp; going to charge up in the New Year!

I know people here say that they find skirts hard to style but not pants. I am exactly the opposite. I have yet to figure out why!</p> <p>Suz, thanks. I think I am improving in the wardrobe planning department. I am far less impulsive than I used to be. I am pretty confident all these items will be winners for me. (Gotta drive down my mistake count - mistakes really bother me.)</p> <p>FT, that’s my favourite skirt. It’s a great basic. And what you said is really nice. Thank you.</p> <p>Thanks Jenni. High five for bronze. It’s very Aussie to be bronzed :)</p> <p>Merry Xmas/happy holidays to all! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ready-for-2019/page/2#post-1985190 Sat, 22 Dec 2018 19:48:12 +0000 Jenni NZ 1985190@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have missed you Brooklyn. You and Bijou are like my personal little Aussie tag-team to cheer me on, with cute dogs to match. I'm so sorry you have had some challenging times. Hopefully you get some revitalisation time over January.<br /> As for the outfits- stunning! Especially METALLIC BRONZE! ( sorry, had to shout). I am still looking at the metallic bronze boots on Styletread- think I will get for next autumn, just waiting for Boxing Day sales in case price drops further x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ready-for-2019#post-1985185 Sat, 22 Dec 2018 19:25:03 +0000 Suz 1985185@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Brooklyn,</b> so sorry to hear you've been facing some setbacks. I hope the new year brings peace and renewed energy.&nbsp;</p> <p>You have never looked better -- just <b>WOW </b>to these fantastic wardrobe additions. I so admire the considered way you shop and how everything you add is indelibly "you" and works cohesively in your closet. And that you do a lot of it "off season" is even more remarkable. Your thoughtfulness really pays off.&nbsp;</p> <p>That velvet coat looks made for you! Wow. Just stunning. I love the 70s vibe. And the Anthro skirt is super fun and looks versatile. That's a great find. I also adore the dress on you. I can't pick a favourite and can only say, please post again! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ready-for-2019#post-1985103 Sat, 22 Dec 2018 15:58:55 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 1985103@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>You find such great items! I love the lining on the green coat. It's like a little secret just for you, to whisper to you how special you are. I know it isn't new, but I really like the skirt you have on in the first pictures, with the double row of buttons. I'm a sucker for anything remotely sailor-suited. <br /></div><div>You are beyond kind and decent. Here's wishing you connections irl who reflect that. <br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ready-for-2019#post-1985098 Sat, 22 Dec 2018 15:50:55 +0000 kellygirl 1985098@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry to hear about the setbacks but it's not affecting your stellar style one bit. You look as amazing as ever. Those greens and browns make you glow. Love the long duster and that skirt in 5 is to die for on you. You make separates look so easy--I envy your ability to wear a skirt. It must be your waist! Absence of one makes them tricky--which is my problem. The Boden dress is boho fab on you too--my second fave. Sending positive thoughts your way! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ready-for-2019#post-1985049 Sat, 22 Dec 2018 11:11:38 +0000 Brooklyn 1985049@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone for the shopping validation and the good vibes for 2019. I wish everyone in my “real life” were as kind and decent as the people here on this forum. It is a special place. </p> <p>Smittie and Jussie, I kind of regret not getting the matching Maeve top. I thought about it, but decided that I might not like it as a set (a bit too much chevron, if that’s possible) and I already have so many patterned tops I thought I could do without another. But it is super cute. Ha ha on the mini-me Smittie! You should try the velvet coat.</p> <p>Sally, hopefully that Boden dress will be going to Queenstown for the cool weather next year :)</p> <p>Taylor, Jill, JAileen, UF, Janet, Sara, robin, Bijou, I actually had a brown velvet coat about 15 years ago that I totally loved and wore for years and years. Until it was literally in tatters. Hopefully this green one will suffer the same fate :)</p> <p>Karen13, that is so flattering. Thank you.</p> <p>Suntiger, Style Fan, Staysfit, runcarla, bronze is so fresh after years of grey! I’d love a bronze skirt. Sorry the top is sold out Style Fan :(</p> <p>Thanks for the kind words TG, Elizabeth, Jessi, nemosmom, Rachy, Chris, vildy and Sterling.</p> <p>Angie, thank you for your support as always </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ready-for-2019#post-1985027 Sat, 22 Dec 2018 06:40:43 +0000 Style Fan 1985027@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Brooklyn, I am so sorry to hear that life has been challenging.&nbsp; Good to see you posting.&nbsp; Your wardrobe additions are amazing.&nbsp; I love everything.&nbsp; I would also like a copper/bronze top.&nbsp; I checked out the one you bought.&nbsp; Sold out.&nbsp; The Free People coat with paisley lining is perfect for your climate.&nbsp; Love those cognac boots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ready-for-2019#post-1985013 Sat, 22 Dec 2018 04:36:08 +0000 Jessikams 1985013@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>SO GOOD!

DROOL-Worthy! I saw that Anthro top and skirt set and was quite tempted by the top. The skirt is beautiful on you!<br /> Sorry to hear you’ve been having a hard time, xx </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ready-for-2019#post-1984935 Fri, 21 Dec 2018 20:33:27 +0000 Sal 1984935@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look wonderful in all these looks - you have a knack for finding just the right pieces. I love the dress- great for a Sydney winter! And the coat is a stunner. The skirt is so Brooklyn too - love it!</p> <p>Here’s to a safe happy Christmas season and a better 2019! These challenging times are so draining on energy- I can identify.</p> <p>And we need to swap climates for a bit- you would have so many chances to wear these lovely pieces in my climate and I will thrash my summer items in yours:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ready-for-2019#post-1984893 Fri, 21 Dec 2018 17:45:50 +0000 taylor 1984893@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Really love your style .

If it is any consolation there is no slump showing! You look wow. DH and I were looking for "fashion icons" when we visited San Francisco last week &nbsp;and I am official declaring my search over. I adore ever single thing you are wearing. I wish I had a life to wear your wardrobe. And that velvet green trench is officially the best thing ever. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ready-for-2019#post-1984872 Fri, 21 Dec 2018 16:09:04 +0000 nemosmom 1984872@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow!

The green coat is a great find; the type of thing one might not think of as being “ necessary “ but will make outfits so much fun rather than just another coat or jacket. </p>
