I got them because of the white rather pearlized frames but sometimes wear a similar white-framed Tiffany pair that are not cat-eye shape.<br /> Nemosmom, I am glad the poncho with crochet work looks ok. I wondered if if was overpowering. Thank you for the compliment on my jewelry. I enjoy wearing it most in warm weather when one does not need to worry about coat sleeves and catching things on sweaters or knit scarves.<br /> Lyn67, thank you for your uplifting comment. I have tried to fit into other style boxes but my eclectic preferences win out.<br /> A new thread for my challenge outfits has been started beginning with July 4th. I will post the next few outfits there. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sal%e2%80%99s-july-challenge-we-begin/page/2#post-2040290 Fri, 05 Jul 2019 11:52:54 +0000 lyn67 2040290@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>3xgreat look, love the first as your maximal (all the golds, the pattern and&nbsp; floral embroidery) then the animalic softness of the second:-) with the lantern pants and&nbsp; the ethnic/boho/cargo&nbsp; vibe in 3-you're really our Eclectic Queen! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sal%e2%80%99s-july-challenge-we-begin/page/2#post-2040043 Thu, 04 Jul 2019 13:16:00 +0000 nemosmom 2040043@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>More great looks, Joy!

It really is helpful when making outfits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sal%e2%80%99s-july-challenge-we-begin#post-2039940 Wed, 03 Jul 2019 19:33:09 +0000 Anonymous 2039940@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am really enamored with the shoe/bag complement from Day 2. &nbsp;That is exactly what I want to build in time. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sal%e2%80%99s-july-challenge-we-begin#post-2039936 Wed, 03 Jul 2019 18:56:46 +0000 Anonymous 2039936@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>July3: consignment olive utility crops and poncho. I am wearing an olive tank under the poncho, Munro flats (#4), bead bracelets made-by-me (#5), gold hoop earrings, Bison bag from an art show(see #2) and thrifted small gauzy olive scarf used twisted and knotted as a necklace. Ted Baker sunglasses. ( not sure about this shape on me.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sal%e2%80%99s-july-challenge-we-begin#post-2039881 Wed, 03 Jul 2019 15:52:34 +0000 Anonymous 2039881@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you so much, Angie. This is what I need to know. The lantern pants are worn full length here but could be easily shortened. I often roll up the legs to several inches above the ankle. I will add today’s olive outfit later this morning as I still need to walk and exercise. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sal%e2%80%99s-july-challenge-we-begin#post-2039877 Wed, 03 Jul 2019 15:30:42 +0000 Angie 2039877@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Outfit #1 - LOVE the gold<b> Joy,</b> and vote pass on the jeans and jacket.

I think it's fab. The ruffles are super fun. You look fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sal%e2%80%99s-july-challenge-we-begin#post-2039663 Tue, 02 Jul 2019 16:25:15 +0000 Anonymous 2039663@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Day 2: mostly consignment pieces, all but EF very old blush topper, scarf, silver bracelet (all gifts), and pink glass earrings from the Denver Botanical Garden shop. The consignment grey silk EF lantern pants are favorites for warm weather. They are light and airy to wear yet the styling creates some structure. What do you think of the zebra top? Are the ruffles too much? On a really hot day, the V neck is high enough to wear the top without the cami under it.<br /> The photos start with the outfit with topper and color block scarf. Others show details, especially accessories.<br /> It the pattern mix of scarf and blouse too much. Too much jewelry? ( I usually stick to bracelets alone or just with earrings in summer). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sal%e2%80%99s-july-challenge-we-begin#post-2039662 Tue, 02 Jul 2019 16:18:28 +0000 Bonnie 2039662@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like those embroidered jeans and the fab way you have accessorized your outfit.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sal%e2%80%99s-july-challenge-we-begin#post-2039657 Tue, 02 Jul 2019 15:55:00 +0000 Anonymous 2039657@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suntiger, I can see what you mean about the length of that jacket. I will see if I need it with any dresses. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sal%e2%80%99s-july-challenge-we-begin#post-2039629 Tue, 02 Jul 2019 14:38:24 +0000 Anonymous 2039629@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Delurked, the gold espadrilles were found by a shopping frien on the sale rack at DSW. They may still have them. They are comfortable all day. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sal%e2%80%99s-july-challenge-we-begin#post-2039621 Tue, 02 Jul 2019 14:15:05 +0000 delurked 2039621@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like this a lot, and have some similar elements to recreate for myself. Wishing I could steal the shoes (and then make them several sizes bigger for my own foot ). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sal%e2%80%99s-july-challenge-we-begin#post-2039618 Tue, 02 Jul 2019 14:07:48 +0000 Anonymous 2039618@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YAY Joy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sal%e2%80%99s-july-challenge-we-begin#post-2039617 Tue, 02 Jul 2019 14:04:33 +0000 Anonymous 2039617@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Anchie, I like these jeans better than I ever thought I would. I plan to wear them a lot and probably then pass them on. I suspect I will tire of them.<br /> Nemosmom, I suspect you are right about wearing a longer topper. The rise is not really low and they stay up pretty well.<br /> Mainelady, your wonderful bracelets have inspired me to make sets. I am on a hunt for orange ones, but they are hard to find.<br /> Jane, the embroidery is what convinced me that I needed these jeans. It is well done and has not come undone at all. Thank you all for your lovely comments and ideas. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sal%e2%80%99s-july-challenge-we-begin#post-2039605 Tue, 02 Jul 2019 13:25:47 +0000 nemosmom 2039605@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the scarf with your jeans, and wonder if the rise won't bother you as much with a longer topper. I do like how the red brings out the red in the embroidery. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sal%e2%80%99s-july-challenge-we-begin#post-2039563 Tue, 02 Jul 2019 10:26:18 +0000 anchie 2039563@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love patterns mixing and colors in this outfit. And fun gold accessories. I am curious to know what have you learned from this outfit- are you passing on the jeans? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sal%e2%80%99s-july-challenge-we-begin#post-2039558 Tue, 02 Jul 2019 10:10:31 +0000 Mainelady 2039558@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy, you, your style and accessories are all so fab! I LOVE this combination and if you hadn’t mentioned the rise of the jeans, I doubt I would have noticed. My eyes are drawn to your fab accessories (of course they are)! I’ll look forward to your upcoming posts. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sal%e2%80%99s-july-challenge-we-begin#post-2039520 Tue, 02 Jul 2019 05:58:49 +0000 Jane 2039520@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Super!
