I have put away most woolens and often wear sleeveless tops with toppers but notice that the toppers stay on all day, for Fathers Day I wore a skirt suit with jacket. The jacket came off for about an hour in the hot sun then was put back on as clouds covered the sun.<br /> Your sweater looks perfect for the weather snd season… light colored yet warm. This week highs will be in the 70’s and 80’s F with lows in the 40’s F. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/somethings-gotta-give#post-2327116 Mon, 19 Jun 2023 03:00:16 +0000 JP 2327116@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both outfits look great.&nbsp; The striped dress is beautiful. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/somethings-gotta-give#post-2326580 Wed, 14 Jun 2023 22:47:03 +0000 Anonymous 2326580@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Adore the cream and white color combination!

I wore mismatched shoes once on purpose for a black and white party- similar shapes, one black one white. And some people I worked with remembered this for over 3 decades!<br /> I feel a bit annoyed that none of the “coastal grandmother” photos ever have women with grey hair! A lot of grandmothers would have grey hair surely? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/somethings-gotta-give#post-2326442 Wed, 14 Jun 2023 03:53:10 +0000 slim cat 2326442@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice neutral/relaxed look and comfy dress -perfect for beginning of summer! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/somethings-gotta-give#post-2326437 Wed, 14 Jun 2023 03:33:54 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2326437@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your sweater and chinos outfit, and I had a good laugh at your story of mismatched loafers! So glad you got to pull out the dress, though--that's a super look with your sneakers! I know that feeling of just being done with dressing for colder weather. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/somethings-gotta-give#post-2326434 Wed, 14 Jun 2023 03:16:32 +0000 Nadya 2326434@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great coastal vibes with both of these!

And your shoe story made me smile. That is something that could definitely happen to me! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/somethings-gotta-give#post-2326415 Wed, 14 Jun 2023 01:06:25 +0000 L'Abeille 2326415@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's been cool here till recently. So on a recent Saturday, I said to myself, "If not now, when?" and pulled on the white turtleneck one more time, with light coloured chinos. (This is the quintessential Coastal Grandmother.) Worn on a rainy day, with tan trench coat and duck boots, to buy raspberry plants at a nearby farm.</p> <p> Later in the day, changed to loafers for a grocery run. Trying to stick with a lighter theme, I pulled out the oxblood loafers. But, apparently, only one of them. Looking at my feet in the parking lot, the other foot was shod with the black loafer in the photo. Oops!</p> <p>Today it finally got hot. This is the first wear of a thrifted Lands End striped<br /> dress. It's a solid knit with beautiful seams -- I think I'll add a belt next time -- and it HAS POCKETS. </p>
