I have been missing you. And you look terrific. If I had looked even one tenth this great when my daughter was a toddler, I would have been grateful. You are dressing for the life you lead and doing it with style. There will be lots of time in a few years for photos of the more fancy-dancy outfits.&nbsp;</p> <p>You look spectacular in the cobalt so my favourite is probably 3/4 but it is awfully tough to resist 5!&nbsp;</p> <p>Love your hair, too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-very-casual-motg-wiws#post-1063319 Fri, 25 Oct 2013 21:03:58 +0000 Helena 1063319@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks great, and # 7 is awesome, can't believe that's Joe Fresh!

I'm a grad student (in the sciences), and this is about the level of casual I need/use on a day-to-day basis. Thanks for giving me some style ideas!&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-very-casual-motg-wiws#post-1062673 Fri, 25 Oct 2013 07:59:07 +0000 anne 1062673@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great to see you posting pics again. I wish I was that hip when I was a MOTG.</p> <p>10 and 11 are my faves and 7 is quite like what I wear! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-very-casual-motg-wiws#post-1062648 Fri, 25 Oct 2013 05:33:36 +0000 Makrame 1062648@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great! &nbsp;I love your blue blouse in #10, and the drapey sweater in #11. &nbsp;Great layering in #7. &nbsp;And, of course, the pumpkin patch snapshot is magazine-perfect! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-very-casual-motg-wiws#post-1062647 Fri, 25 Oct 2013 05:28:11 +0000 Ariadne 1062647@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I haven't posted many WIWs for a lot of reasons, including a photobombing toddler, lack of time, and horrible photo-taking conditions. &nbsp;I've also been held back by some of the things Ornella mentioned in <a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/outfits-worth-posting">this post</a>. &nbsp;I always dress carefully everyday, but as a stay-mostly-at-home mom to two small kids,&nbsp;life is extremely casual*. &nbsp;Like, kneeling-on-the-bathroom-floor-cleaning-up-preschooler-pee-accidents-level casual. &nbsp;My outfits aren't polished, showstopping or head-turning. &nbsp;But what the heck. &nbsp;I know some of you are in the same boat.&nbsp;And the new photo restrictions make me feel more comfortable showing my 'face' here again. &nbsp;So here are some recent WIWs, including candid shots and a fail. &nbsp;I was happier with some &nbsp;of these&nbsp;outfits than others, and&nbsp;ALL of them looked much better in the mirror than in the photos. &nbsp;I'm not sure if i have an unrealistically fantastic mirror or unrealistically bad photo taking skills!</p> <p>*I do work part-time outside the home and have a supremely minimal&nbsp;but tenacious evening social life. I&nbsp;wear some of my favourite outfits on those days/nights, but I never seem to manage to photograph them! &nbsp;Like last weekend, when I went to a fashion show with a girlfriend at a local consignment store and wore leather leggings, a chunky oversized sweater, high-heeled&nbsp;ankle booties, a leopard clutch and scarf and a navy peacoat. No photos. Sigh.</p> <p>Photo 1: Linen striped tee, military jacket, skinny jeans, white cons.<br />Photo 2: Not happy with this outfit--pants look too bunch, shoes look awkward. &nbsp;Same shoes and jacket with skinny mini Gap khakis and striped cowl tee.<br />Photos 3-4: Beloved Danier leather jacket, Paige skinny cargo pants, Gap mesh-sleeve sweater, Anthro metallic fishscale belt, cognac booties and diaper bag + outfit sans bag and jacket.<br />Photo 5: Candid at the pumpkin patchw with my family. &nbsp;Same old jacket, skinnies, old shiny black rain boos, leopard scarf (not visible). &nbsp;Bonus preschooler in hot pink and black leopard-print leggings and grey fleece moto jacket that I wish came in adult sizes.<br />Photo 6: Club Monaco "fancy pants", old belt, grey sweatshirt with silver lurex threads, suede Petty booties. &nbsp;How do you all keep your semi-tucks semi-tucked?! &nbsp;Mine always come un-tucked.<br />Photo 7: Probably my favourite. &nbsp;Danier jacket, Joe Fresh sweatshirt dress, plaid scarf, leggings, old Frye chocolate brown boots (waving at boot twin Annagybe)<br />Photo 8-10: Black skinnies, cobalt tee, Danier jacket, leopard scarf, Cognac boots, beloved Rebecca Minkoff blood red bag throwing off the line of my jacket, hence photo #9 sans bag. &nbsp;Photo 10 is the same sans outerwear/bag.<br />Photo 11: Today. &nbsp;Same black skinnies with grey tee, chunky open cardi&nbsp;from Dress for Success fundraiser sale, black Clarks tall boots. Bonus&nbsp;photobombing toddler. &nbsp;("Mommy, takee picture toooo?")</p> <p>Whew! &nbsp;I promise I'll break these up more from now on. </p>
