Mary K, every word that lady said is true. </p> <p>My favourite compliment of the last 24 hours was not actually in relation to my appearance. I, however, like to think that it still counts because when I heard it I felt absolutely fabulous! It was my (sometimes rather difficult to get along with) Father in Law excitedly telling me last night over the phone that I'm the BEST Daughter in Law he has ever had! [Background - I managed to get him and my MIL last minute free tickets to go to a Bee-Gees concert last night. They both love the Bee-Gees and were so very excited to have the opportunity to go, hence his ultra enthusiasm - he actually rang me from the stadium after he picked up the tickets to say thank you again. :-)] </p> <p>Of course, I am the ONLY daughter in law he has (and ever will!), but hey, a compliment from him is still something to treasure, right?! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/received-the-nicest-compliment-today#post-241756 Sat, 30 Oct 2010 07:10:02 +0000 MsMary 241756@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Are you kidding me? I think a "you look hot" from the husband is the best compliment there is! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/received-the-nicest-compliment-today#post-241755 Sat, 30 Oct 2010 07:08:28 +0000 AJ 241755@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh yay for unexpected compliments...especially when it comes from a stylish person!</p> <p>I got a nice compliment...my husband told me that I looked "hot." Does that still count? : ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/received-the-nicest-compliment-today#post-241724 Sat, 30 Oct 2010 05:24:06 +0000 Michelle 241724@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>AWW! How fabulous! Everyone else's stories, too.<br /> I got two recently that make me smile even now. One was actually several weeks ago when a woman in my building held the door for me and said "I love your dress, you always look so good." Yesterday I ran into her again and she introduced herself as "the one who said I like your clothes." :)<br /> And just yesterday, a stylish and gorgeous colleague said much the same thing, complementing first my specific outfit and then my overall fashion sensibilities. Absolutely made my day. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/received-the-nicest-compliment-today#post-241720 Sat, 30 Oct 2010 05:18:14 +0000 marianna 241720@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A well deserved compliment! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/received-the-nicest-compliment-today#post-241699 Sat, 30 Oct 2010 05:00:30 +0000 Kari 241699@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is sweet - I hope that the compliment makes you feel great about the way you have been dressing yourself. (Keep her words in mind if you ever have a down day when you *don't* really love your clothes!) It's always nice to receive a compliment from a colleague whose style you admire too, isn't it? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/received-the-nicest-compliment-today#post-241602 Sat, 30 Oct 2010 03:31:07 +0000 Lisa 241602@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Now that is fab!

I got one today too. I went to vote early and one of the poll workers told me that she just loved my outfit, that it was perfect for a fall day. I had on Lucky slight boot cut jeans, a dark brown knit top under a print cardi of dark brown, cream, tomato red, burnt orange and gold in a modern pattern of varied sized dots. Accessories were snakeskin pattern loafers, red orange bag with brown leather trim, gold hoops and several strands of Zulu grass beads in browns, creams, and golds.<br /> Another rather unusual compliment I had last week was when my class was leaving and a 12 year old girl showed me a drawing and asked if I recognized myself. She'd liked my outfit and drew it down to the little square mother-of-pearl buttons on the blouse. I wasn't quite sure how to react since we both knew she was supposed to be doing other work, but felt flattered that she'd noticed. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/received-the-nicest-compliment-today#post-241566 Sat, 30 Oct 2010 01:51:23 +0000 MNsara 241566@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice compliment, MaryK! I hope it was a ray of sunshine to you :-)</p> <p>It always catches me off guard to receive a compliment from out of the blue, but I am doing better at just smiling and saying a sincere "thank you!" (as opposed to some self-deprecating comment I used to make. . .) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/received-the-nicest-compliment-today#post-241554 Sat, 30 Oct 2010 01:24:19 +0000 celia 241554@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That was a nice compliment. You totally deserve it </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/received-the-nicest-compliment-today#post-241516 Fri, 29 Oct 2010 23:54:10 +0000 Isabel 241516@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beside the fact that someone gave you a very kind compliment, it sounds as if you bring a bright spot to someone's day just because of the way you put yourself together. What a wonderful thing to give to the world !!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/received-the-nicest-compliment-today#post-241501 Fri, 29 Oct 2010 23:14:41 +0000 taylor 241501@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They say you can live a month off a compliment like that....I milk them for much longer:)</p> <p>Very FAB! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/received-the-nicest-compliment-today#post-241491 Fri, 29 Oct 2010 23:05:11 +0000 MsMaven 241491@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just gave a compliment. I went to the cleaners to pick up and drop off, and while the clerk had her back turned I noticed she had a pretty top on. It was shades of purple to almost a rust-pink, and when she turned around I saw it had a pretty draped neckline. She had shoulder-length curly red hair and I told her she looked outstanding. She was very pleased and said she just had her roots done and said I'd made her day with the compliment. </p> <p>Driving home I wondered how she would have reacted if I had whipped out my phone and taken a picture and asked her if I could post it on YLF. Probably better I didn't.</p> <p>I'm trying to pay more attention to what others are wearing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/received-the-nicest-compliment-today#post-241489 Fri, 29 Oct 2010 23:04:39 +0000 catgirl 241489@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How nice to get a straightforward compliment with a smile, and one that you so deserve! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/received-the-nicest-compliment-today#post-241478 Fri, 29 Oct 2010 22:51:12 +0000 Mo 241478@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very nice. I think sometimes when someone says a nice thing when they absolutely don't have to makes us smile all the more. The last sort of compliment I got was yet again a backhanded one. The tailor when I went to pick up a MK pencil skirt I had dropped off said he didn't recognize me because I looked so different. Well, I'd just come from swimming laps at the pool with a bright orange sundress coverup on, no makekup and drenched hair piled on my head. The first time I had hair and makeup done and a cute coordinated outfit with heels on. I can only assume he meant, geez you look really bad today compared to how pulled together you were yesterday. LOL. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/received-the-nicest-compliment-today#post-241461 Fri, 29 Oct 2010 22:32:27 +0000 Dawn 241461@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is really sweet!

I can tell!"</p> <p>Made me feel all warm and fuzzy! :)</p> <p>Anybody else had a nice compliment lately? </p>
