You’re exactly right about when pieces have some extra detail, it really help with fewer layers. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-wiws-9#post-1925630 Tue, 05 Jun 2018 00:28:41 +0000 Aida 1925630@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfits! And good for trying to wear favorites. Especially loving #2 (WOW good!!), #3, #5 and #6. Your pieces all have interesting elements on their own, which I know comes in handy with the hot weather you've got. I see similar to Rachy, pretty without being overly frilly. Just enough romance. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-wiws-9#post-1925467 Mon, 04 Jun 2018 16:27:42 +0000 delurked 1925467@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Texstyle- I do like white with cognac too. I am wearing that tee with denim cutoffs today, but will swing out the cognac accents. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-wiws-9#post-1925455 Mon, 04 Jun 2018 16:10:56 +0000 texstyle 1925455@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfits all around but the all white #6 is my absolute favorite!&nbsp; I love all white. I also love mostly all white with cognac accents in summer (shoes and handbag or shoes and a tan ;-)). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-wiws-9#post-1925389 Mon, 04 Jun 2018 13:52:07 +0000 delurked 1925389@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Also wanted to mention, the print pants are from Soft Surroundings, not a place I’ve ever bought pants from before. I’m pleasantly surprised at the quality and fit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-wiws-9#post-1925265 Mon, 04 Jun 2018 05:39:36 +0000 delurked 1925265@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I haven’t purchased any new sandals this year. It’s my goal to get through my long summer and fall with what I’ve got. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-wiws-9#post-1925223 Mon, 04 Jun 2018 02:06:22 +0000 delurked 1925223@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>3style - I think I have slightly better shades of burgundy/purples/browns, but there are a lot of small variations that make a big difference. I’ll take a look at the website. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-wiws-9#post-1925200 Mon, 04 Jun 2018 01:41:26 +0000 3style 1925200@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Delurked, if you haven’t checked out the stylist David Zyla’s website I would encourage you to do so. It’s marginal whether the book he wrote “color your style” adds value beyond the website, at least for regular people. I enjoyed it but he is also a costume designer and his ideas definitely makes sense for that purpose and can be a bit literal for more everyday occasions. </p> <p>Anyway, he has a useful personal color palette plan. Two of the colors are your “tranquility” color (which I think for you might be that shade of brown) and your “dramatic” color, which I think for you is Cobalt. </p> <p>He has a system for defining the properties of a bunch of other personal palette color names. This is something which I have found useful.He calls them: Essence color, romantic color, energy color, and the top three shades of most common neutral Base colors. For example I’m good in dark mushroom colors for my shades of brown, and your brown top would be too red-toned for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-wiws-9#post-1925178 Mon, 04 Jun 2018 00:58:02 +0000 delurked 1925178@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mainelady - I’m glad I got some winners last year and prior that I can add to this season. </p> <p>3style - I’m drawn to both prints and colors, though yellow is an exception. Cobalt and blues are my favorite. I also like the color in 8,and it’s an outfit that exemplifies my casual lifestyle in the summer. </p> <p>Jussie -I’m happy to hear it looks cohesive. </p> <p>Brooklyn - I didn’t even think about the floral in the sandal. That teal top is one of my favorites I tend to save.</p> <p>JAileen- I like the pattern mix too. Thx. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-wiws-9#post-1925171 Mon, 04 Jun 2018 00:27:56 +0000 JAileen 1925171@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like these. The bold colors, bold florals, florals with stripes, really nice! If I were to pick a favorite it would be 9. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-wiws-9#post-1925169 Mon, 04 Jun 2018 00:10:51 +0000 delurked 1925169@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sterling - I agree listening to when we feel our best is important. It’s almost criminal not to wear those clothes then, as saving them then doesn’t allow us to feel good. </p> <p>Thanks Angie. I never would have tried that white BR top if not for your reco. I find it an interesting piece. </p> <p>Thanks SF. I’m enjoying adding the white in and didn’t even realize I had such a black and white theme going. </p> <p>Suz - another long short enthusiast. I totally agree bold colors and patterns help finish an outfit that doesn’t have a 3rd piece. I will ponder the long over lean. I see it when you say it. </p> <p>Rachy - I mean this in a good way, but sometimes I feel Amazonian, and frills don’t really work for that vibe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-wiws-9#post-1925153 Sun, 03 Jun 2018 23:20:29 +0000 Brooklyn 1925153@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great looks DL. You look stylish in the heat. My favourites are the black and white pattern mix and all the white shorts outfits. I especially like the one with the teal (?) top (no 10). And cute shoes in no 5. Are they floral? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-wiws-9#post-1925148 Sun, 03 Jun 2018 23:07:29 +0000 jussie 1925148@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My favorite is number 3, a gorgeous dress. My next favorites are 1,2,4,5 and 9. I think your look is fairly cohesive, fwiw. Kind of classic with a relaxed, cheerful twist. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-wiws-9#post-1925145 Sun, 03 Jun 2018 22:58:13 +0000 3style 1925145@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m liking #8 which compliments (what I can tell) in terms of your personal coloring. Idle speculation here, but I’m wondering if you are choosing some of the bolder cooler colors and patterns because they have become ubiquitous, and not because you love them. I like you in either style and palette in terms of flattering you. Yet, somehow, that’s the one outfit that feels the most like your home base to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-wiws-9#post-1925137 Sun, 03 Jun 2018 22:28:00 +0000 Mainelady 1925137@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You do have great mix of solids and prints. Those pants are fantastic! You seem to prefer fluid tops over fitted bottoms and they look great on you! I like that you are mixing old and new pieces. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-wiws-9#post-1925127 Sun, 03 Jun 2018 22:16:51 +0000 rachylou 1925127@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very interesting! I feel you have a lot of pretty going on, but it’s not frilly. </p> <p>... I like to say I’m frilly with true grit, because it still annoys my little brother, who says I’m just frilly... Lol ... you have more sense </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-wiws-9#post-1925119 Sun, 03 Jun 2018 22:01:35 +0000 Suz 1925119@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Long shorts for the win! :)&nbsp;</p> <p><b>LOVE</b> the pattern mix in #9, too.&nbsp;</p> <p>The print pants are really great -- I especially like them in #2 with the light coloured top and shoes.&nbsp;</p> <p>It appears that (for summer at least) you enjoy loose over lean (makes sense in hot weather and it suits you). You also gravitate to strong colours (cobalt, yellow) and contrast in your outfits at lot of the time. I identify with this because in hot weather colour and pattern takes the place of accessories that feel too sticky to wear.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-wiws-9#post-1925117 Sun, 03 Jun 2018 21:51:35 +0000 Style Fan 1925117@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great style delurked.&nbsp; I love the black and white theme. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-wiws-9#post-1925110 Sun, 03 Jun 2018 21:37:24 +0000 Angie 1925110@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have cute hectic hot weather casual style,<b> delurked</b>.

Those patterned pants were an unexpected find I couldn’t pass up when I tried them on. </p> <p>Cardiff girl - I do favor florals over striped tops or other patterns. They call to me. I’m already considering this the year of long shorts. I find them an easy length to wear. </p> <p>Sterling - I’m convinced that stripe skirt matches everything, and it was fun to mix it with a pattern. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-wiws-9#post-1925072 Sun, 03 Jun 2018 20:31:37 +0000 Anonymous 1925072@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I love these WIWs. &nbsp;My favorites are numbers 4, 7, 9, 10, and 11. &nbsp;You do have a nice selection of solids and patterns. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-wiws-9#post-1925070 Sun, 03 Jun 2018 20:30:47 +0000 Cardiff girl 1925070@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Floral seems to be a theme.l really like all those knee length shorts on you and the dress and stripy skirt are cute. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-wiws-9#post-1925069 Sun, 03 Jun 2018 20:29:13 +0000 Becky 1925069@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice selection.

You have a nice mix of solids and patterns. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-wiws-9#post-1925065 Sun, 03 Jun 2018 20:25:11 +0000 delurked 1925065@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’ve been trying to wear my favorites, both old and new. </p> <p>It may be helpful for future shopping to find a cohesive theme to my looks, but I’m not exactly sure what that is. </p>
