I hadn't felt the love for the last couple of winters but I'm glad I put them away rather than let go of them :)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/realityfantasyim-late#post-1488544 Thu, 07 May 2015 22:01:14 +0000 Lyn D. 1488544@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Caro, I am 'late' to your 'late' post- and you made a FAB entrance to this challenge- the audience gasps :)<br />Your jackets and footwear are second to none and always make a statement.<br />The old fav in #3 seems very much on-trend now with the poncho and cape knits we are seeing here in Oz.<br />I am glad that you are feeling better! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/realityfantasyim-late#post-1487507 Wed, 06 May 2015 08:46:52 +0000 Anonymous 1487507@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I definitely see coherence too. Your fantasy outfit in #1 is wonderful! But top marks from me go to that fab jacket in #3. I love the footwear and hair in all iterations too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/realityfantasyim-late#post-1487462 Wed, 06 May 2015 04:27:54 +0000 Meredith 1487462@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a rough week! Glad you're feeling better. Love seeing these looks. Very cohesive and I so admire how the casual looks have so much visual interest. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/realityfantasyim-late#post-1487459 Wed, 06 May 2015 04:25:53 +0000 Caro in Oz 1487459@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone. I'm so much better today - nearly back to my sparkling best </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/realityfantasyim-late#post-1487454 Wed, 06 May 2015 04:19:40 +0000 catgirl 1487454@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fashionably late, I'd say! These are my fantasy outfits too... So cool! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/realityfantasyim-late#post-1487426 Wed, 06 May 2015 03:32:40 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1487426@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, wow--I really like #3. That Annette Goertz jacket is amazing, and you wear it so well. I see coherence across these looks, too. Relaxed, artful shapes, the dark neutral palette. You look more dressed up in #1 for sure, so I'd say the differences have to do with level of formality. I hope you're feeling better and the storms are passing, too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/realityfantasyim-late#post-1487276 Tue, 05 May 2015 22:46:34 +0000 Style Fan 1487276@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I looked Annette Gortz up.&nbsp; I really like her designs.&nbsp; Casual luxe indeed. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/realityfantasyim-late#post-1487274 Tue, 05 May 2015 22:40:53 +0000 Style Fan 1487274@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry to hear that you were sick.&nbsp; I like all 3 outfits but #3 is my fav.&nbsp; Your fantasy and reality seem to be coherent to me.&nbsp; Great to find a designer that gets you.&nbsp; Love it when that happens.&nbsp; I will have to look her up. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/realityfantasyim-late#post-1487271 Tue, 05 May 2015 22:27:15 +0000 Caro in Oz 1487271@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks so much for responding everyone. You have made me feel MUCH better :)&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Lucy </b>- yes the storms have been terrible. Where are you?</p> <p><b>Suz</b> - the denim is thick but not stiff (if that makes sense) &amp; slightly stretchy. I don't usually wear any of my jackets done up but, for the photo, I wanted to show the shape of the hem &amp; the "tucks" in the sides. No problems when I sit or move :)</p> <p><b>Joy </b>- I have worn it out, for dinner &amp; the theatre It felt pretty good.</p> <p>Thanks <b>Angie </b>- I love #3 too. Many of the European designers seem to get me They are great at casual luxe too which is the direction I am moving towards with my wardrobe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/realityfantasyim-late#post-1487026 Tue, 05 May 2015 15:10:18 +0000 harmonica 1487026@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So good to hear you're feeling better. I see coherence, too. Interesting, flattering and gorgeous all over. Love the jacket in #3 (and the white brick wall in the background). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/realityfantasyim-late#post-1487020 Tue, 05 May 2015 15:05:32 +0000 shedev 1487020@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They look coherent to me. I like them all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/realityfantasyim-late#post-1487019 Tue, 05 May 2015 15:04:04 +0000 Angie 1487019@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry you were ill. Good you're feeling better.&nbsp;</p> <p>When I look at #3, I think "CARO", and it's a Reality look. Killer outfit. Fantasy and Reality is TOTALLY coherent in your style life.&nbsp;You lucky fish.</p> <p>FABULOUS looks all round. Your hair is amazing. Much love to you.&nbsp;<b></b> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/realityfantasyim-late#post-1486969 Tue, 05 May 2015 13:21:52 +0000 Anonymous 1486969@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm glad that you are feeling better. I love your fantasy outfit! You must wear this out. The contrast of tough and soft is very appealing. It meshes beautifully with your daily outfits, especially 3. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/realityfantasyim-late#post-1486964 Tue, 05 May 2015 13:11:24 +0000 Ledonna N. 1486964@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry you were under the weather.&nbsp; 1&amp;3 align to me for your fantasy vs reality. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/realityfantasyim-late#post-1486954 Tue, 05 May 2015 12:47:55 +0000 Suz 1486954@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Question about the denim jacket -- is it stiff? Do you wear it buttoned all the time? When you sit, how does it behave? It's a unique and interesting piece that I love.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/realityfantasyim-late#post-1486953 Tue, 05 May 2015 12:47:07 +0000 Suz 1486953@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So glad you are on the mend! Sick is no fun, ever.&nbsp;</p> <p>These outfits are all 100% fantastic and 100% you. They include your signature "third piece" topper, they include fab footwear, and they are flattering and interesting. I love them all, for different purposes, of course.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/realityfantasyim-late#post-1486931 Tue, 05 May 2015 12:21:13 +0000 Jaime 1486931@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Coherent and fabulous in all three! I can't even pick a favorite they are all so good. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/realityfantasyim-late#post-1486927 Tue, 05 May 2015 12:19:25 +0000 donnat 1486927@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like all of the outfits. Fantasy is more dressed up, the other more casual. All of them are cool looking. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/realityfantasyim-late#post-1486926 Tue, 05 May 2015 12:19:16 +0000 Lucy 1486926@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, I think your fantasy and reality meld very nicely indeed! I love that jacket in #3, YLF.&nbsp;<br />Hope you are on the mend, and the power is back on. We have had crazy storms in Oz this last week or two haven't we??&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/realityfantasyim-late#post-1486916 Tue, 05 May 2015 11:41:12 +0000 approprio 1486916@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like all of these. Two sides of the same coin.&nbsp;Fantasy Caro is killer. Reality Caro is just plain cool. Hope you're feeling better. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/realityfantasyim-late#post-1486880 Tue, 05 May 2015 09:09:57 +0000 Staysfit 1486880@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry you were feeling ill. Your outfits are lovely, and they do look coherent to me. Your fantasy outfit is maybe dressier than the reality. I like all three. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/realityfantasyim-late#post-1486876 Tue, 05 May 2015 08:59:35 +0000 Summer 1486876@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They seem coherent to me, too. &nbsp;It's just practicality that separates them.<br />You look lovely in all the outfits, Caro.</p> <p>I hope you are feeling better. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/realityfantasyim-late#post-1486869 Tue, 05 May 2015 07:42:36 +0000 Deborah 1486869@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Caro so sorry you were not well. &nbsp;Hope you are ok now. &nbsp;Love these outfits. &nbsp;I think there is a great deal of coherency between your real life and fantasy outfits. &nbsp;Love that jacket/topper in #3 so stunning and such an interesting garment. &nbsp;Looking good. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/realityfantasyim-late#post-1486865 Tue, 05 May 2015 07:17:45 +0000 Caro in Oz 1486865@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>There was way too much reality for me last week. I was very busy early in the week &amp; very sick at the weekend. Better today, but we had a huge storm last night &amp; the power went off at just after six this morning.</p> <p># 1 is my fantasy outfit which includes a silk under-piece, heeled booties &amp; more jewellery. Bad photo sorry.</p> <p>Photo #2 is my rust denim jacket which is one of my everyday jackets.</p> <p>#3 is how I'm dressed today, an old Annette Gortz piece that I still love.</p> <p>I'm wearing the same pants in all the photos.</p> <p>Do my fantasy self &amp; my daily outfits feel coherent to you? </p>
