Love all the clothes you made, but the outfit with white pants and pewter shirt is especially sharp.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sneaker-and-jeans-refresh#post-2322655 Sat, 13 May 2023 03:26:25 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2322655@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ha! Thanks, Vicki. That's a much better way of looking at it than how much the return cost me! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sneaker-and-jeans-refresh#post-2322638 Sat, 13 May 2023 01:59:53 +0000 Vicki 2322638@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wonderful fit and pairing in every photo and I’d say that return paid handsome dividends. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sneaker-and-jeans-refresh#post-2322572 Fri, 12 May 2023 21:24:39 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2322572@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>Thank you, everyone! You are so kind and supportive. <br /></div><div>&nbsp;<br /></div><div><b>RobinF</b>, I would say, yes, they are true to size. I wear a 7 or 7.5--most often the latter, and 7.5 is what I bought in this style. I could wear the 7, but the 7.5 allows room for a little more sock or foot-swelling. <br /></div><div><br /></div><div><b>Minaminu</b> and <b>Angie</b>, thank you for the hair compliments. As I grow it out a bit, I feel it has been most challenging since the last haircut. Not sure how to style it these days. So the compliments are extra reassuring!</div><div><br /></div></p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sneaker-and-jeans-refresh#post-2322489 Fri, 12 May 2023 14:27:09 +0000 Angie 2322489@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Woohooo!

I agree that Madewell sizing of pants and shorts can be very inconsistent. So these are a lucky find.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sneaker-and-jeans-refresh#post-2322437 Fri, 12 May 2023 11:24:14 +0000 Brooklyn 2322437@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love mauve too.

At Madewell, I tried on two pairs of jeans and a pair of shorts, and I bought the <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.madewell.com/on/demandware.store/Sites-madewellUS-Site/en_US/Product-Multisell?source=multisell&amp;externalProductCodes=NL011,NJ245,N4318">Perfect Vintage Wide-Legged Jean</a> in tile white. (If anyone can create a Find, I'll add it.)</div><div><br /></div><div>And I found a pair of sneakers at Nordstrom, the Cole Haan Topspin style in Roccia Pearly Snake. To my eye, the color has a little bit of mauve to it, so these fit the bill for sneakers with a blush pink element to them, for which I have been on the lookout. (I was interested in getting an update to my blush slip-on Mephisto sneakers that are getting kind of worn looking after several seasons.) Curiously I tried on this Cole Haan style in a different color a couple of years ago and the back edge bugged me. But they seem to work fine now. I'll wear them around the house for a while to be sure.</div><div><br /></div><div>Pics below: <br /></div><div>1) What I wore shopping. White Levis Icon jeans, navy and aqua print peplum-back blouse (made by me), gray waffle-weave cotton jacket (made by me), gray leopard print sneakers (Mephisto Yael), and metallic pewter crossbody bag (Kurt Geiger). <br /></div><div>2) showing the new jeans and sneakers</div><div>3-5) new jeans and sneakers with a boxy asymmetric metallic top (made by me) to show more of the top of the jeans.</div><div>6) new sneakers with a mauve sporty A-line dress (Zella) that I bought at the end of the season last year and look forward to wearing this summer.</div><div><br /></div><div>Any comments and suggestions are welcome! <br /></div></p>
