Not sure a teen would like them though, they are kind of a loose style like this one (nice to cover the jiggly bits!), and I got them a few years ago so they may not be available. The shorts were actually intended for volleyball but work great as swim bottoms.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-wins#post-2251992 Tue, 15 Feb 2022 19:38:30 +0000 Helena 2251992@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>0h Robin, what brand? My daughter needs a new top and it's hard to find her size at the best of times; Amazon might be just the thing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-wins#post-2251989 Tue, 15 Feb 2022 17:23:58 +0000 RobinF 2251989@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the black and white with pop of pink!&nbsp;</p> <p>Yay for vacation, ugh for swim suit shopping. I actually got my last two from Amazon, of all places (lots of try on and return), two tankini tops with bike shorts bottoms. Love them.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-wins#post-2251986 Tue, 15 Feb 2022 17:12:46 +0000 Suz 2251986@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You. had me at "vacation."&nbsp; &nbsp;WOWOWOWOWOWOW!!&nbsp;</p> <p>In all seriousness, though, I fully understand the joy of an actual <i>working</i> wardrobe. It's gratifying to know we're wearing our clothes and purchases were not a waste in any way.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-wins#post-2251979 Tue, 15 Feb 2022 15:59:40 +0000 Zaeobi 2251979@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Haha nothing like money to give you a reality check Glad the black jumper worked out for you though! </p> <p>I've seen some similarly knitted balloon sleeved jumpers in 'white' online, but can never tell if they mean cool white or ivory or off-white or warm cream - so frustrating! I'll brave in-person shopping again soon... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-wins#post-2251773 Mon, 14 Feb 2022 02:37:23 +0000 Sal 2251773@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great work Helena - lots of tops!!</p> <p>I have only made one 2022 purchase, an essential as well.&nbsp; I have worn it three times so far, about once a week since buying it.</p> <p>And yes a swimsuit that you love is a wonderful purchase- cheeky bikinis are very very popular here at the moment.&nbsp; Finding one you love is important...and getting the right coverage level for your tastes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-wins#post-2251700 Sun, 13 Feb 2022 11:02:14 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2251700@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Carla, i don’t think there are Esprit stores in the US either, but think some department stores include pieces from Esprit in their inventory. That’s how I thought it might be available in Canada. But then, I’m not even sure about what I said about the US. I’m not there now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-wins#post-2251695 Sun, 13 Feb 2022 03:21:58 +0000 Jaime 2251695@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well done! I am glad you are pleased - that is really the most important part.

The fuchsia sweatshirt is fantastic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-wins#post-2251652 Sat, 12 Feb 2022 17:21:31 +0000 Helena 2251652@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks all! Zaeobi, the sweater was found at an outlet store, so unfortunately there weren't many options; it was just a lucky find really that they even had the right size. However, I did spot a very similar style at a different store, in winter-white,&nbsp; which I admit was super-tempting (but it was twice the price, which kept the temptation in check!!) It's a REALLY warm sweater so I've worn it easily twice a week since I purchased as it's been freezing out! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-wins#post-2251651 Sat, 12 Feb 2022 16:21:26 +0000 slim cat 2251651@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks great - love bright pink sweater for you!<br />Vacation - yay! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-wins#post-2251650 Sat, 12 Feb 2022 16:10:41 +0000 Zaeobi 2251650@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh that cropped balloon sleeved cable knit jumper is great - does it come in other colours? </p> <p>Glad they're all working out for you - B&amp;W &amp; pink sounds like a good colour scheme for you.

Ope. </p> <p>You know I want that pink/fuchsia/magenta sweatshirt! Enjoy wearing for me ,) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-wins#post-2251629 Sat, 12 Feb 2022 14:01:29 +0000 Helena 2251629@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi there, just updating my Finds this a.m. and am really pleased to note that it's been a workhorse-heavy year so far! Not that this has to be the goal for every piece, but generally speaking it makes me very happy to find that purchases are being frequently worn.&nbsp;</p> <p>My "colour" this year is "black &amp; white" and it has unintentionally played out in my purchases - but there is also a nice pop of bright pink in the mix too.&nbsp;</p> <p>I had a goal of adding some winter sweaters and thin underlayers since I habitually neglect the 'deep winter' portion of my wardrobe, and I think I've achieved it, having added several sweaters which layer nicely over thin base layers since last early fall (so no more of those needed for a while).</p> <p>As we move towards later winter/early spring, I will have to assess my warm weather clothing needs for an upcoming vacation (yay!), especially a bathing suit (I have my eye on the Athleta two pieces, which are modestly cut which I really like in a two piece). No other major 'needs' on my radar at the moment, but open to organized-emotional finds :D</p> <p>Posting for reflection and accountability; feedback welcome as always, thanks for reading </p>
