It was an experiment, I'm not a fan of columns of colours, esp in pale colours, in general. It was interesting to hear they give a soft, soothing, calm vibe.</p> <p>Jane : thank you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sorbaria-kirilowii#post-1691274 Fri, 08 Jul 2016 20:45:25 +0000 Jane 1691274@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So stylish and easy. It is a beautiful tree. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sorbaria-kirilowii#post-1691249 Fri, 08 Jul 2016 20:05:14 +0000 Beth Ann 1691249@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the soft colors on you --- the simplicity keeps it modern, rather than overtly "girly." &nbsp;The raglan sleeve if particularly fab -- along with the fancy tree, of course! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sorbaria-kirilowii#post-1691097 Fri, 08 Jul 2016 16:01:37 +0000 Maneera 1691097@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful, soothing, calming palette. I can't pick a favourite at all, but I do love the 1st &amp; 2nd outfits ALOT! </p> <p>You do a tree pose very well. I can't believe you've never taken a yoga class at all!!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sorbaria-kirilowii#post-1691094 Fri, 08 Jul 2016 15:52:48 +0000 Suz 1691094@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>ETA you have the perfect body type for fluid knits with trousers. It is a signature look. (I love this look myself even with shorter legs but a similar rectangular type top shape). &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sorbaria-kirilowii#post-1691093 Fri, 08 Jul 2016 15:51:47 +0000 Suz 1691093@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Isabelle, look what I saw on my walk last night. It is a different tree, but turns the same colour. We call this a tree lilac or Japanese lilac tree, but the Latin name is&nbsp;<i>Syringa reticulata. &nbsp;</i>It reminded me of yours, but not spilling over in the same way. More upright. These ones do look a little different from usual because we are having an extremely dry spring and summer; you can see how the grass is all brown here.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sorbaria-kirilowii#post-1690986 Fri, 08 Jul 2016 11:51:35 +0000 skylurker 1690986@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you for your nice comments.</p> <p>It's funny how this outfit creation process works. I didn't think of the colours as soothing...still yoga came to mind when I took pictures (and I've never been to a yoga class in my life, I don't even know how I know about the tree pose!)</p> <p>Suz : I like your "overspilling" description - so accurate.<br /> I do have a soft spot for fluid knits overspilling over trousers.</p> <p>Jaime : I took a photograph of the tag, that's how. No way I could remember that name all the way back home at my advanced age ;)<br /> I didn't even recollect the colours correctly!</p> <p>Diane : thank you for your detailed comment.<br /> Yes, please come to Paris to see my tree and steal my sweaters, I'll offer you cake </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sorbaria-kirilowii#post-1690984 Fri, 08 Jul 2016 11:18:21 +0000 Anonymous 1690984@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok, with such a weird post title I just had to take a look... I was thinking you'd taken up talking Klingon or something!</p> <p>Now I know what you mean, I'm in awe of how pretty that tree looks. No wonder it's your favourite. The colours are gorgeous....as are the colours you chose for your outfits. You have some fabulous knitwear, you know Isabelle. I may have to steal some of your sweaters :)&nbsp;The lovely pale peachy tones and soft grey really appeal to me. I agree with Angie about the raglan sleeve shape on you too,&nbsp;it's very flattering.&nbsp; As per usual, your shoes are fab too.</p> <p>Nice tree pose BTW!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sorbaria-kirilowii#post-1690968 Fri, 08 Jul 2016 08:56:23 +0000 Jaime 1690968@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I showed my family Isabelle's&nbsp;tree on our way out! My favorite is the first one - you have captured the serene beauty of the tree itself. </p> <p>ETA and how is it that you are suddenly naming trees ?</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sorbaria-kirilowii#post-1690728 Thu, 07 Jul 2016 20:30:23 +0000 Anonymous 1690728@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You always strike me as effortlessly elegant. I love that. I also love the tree and I adored your recent tribute to 'Uncle Bob'. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sorbaria-kirilowii#post-1690727 Thu, 07 Jul 2016 20:29:17 +0000 Sara L. 1690727@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the story behind your inspiration photo.&nbsp; Nice set of outfits - very calm and soothing color combinations.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sorbaria-kirilowii#post-1690715 Thu, 07 Jul 2016 19:54:35 +0000 crazyone 1690715@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the tree inspiration idea! &nbsp;I especially love the shape of the sweater in #3. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sorbaria-kirilowii#post-1690695 Thu, 07 Jul 2016 19:05:02 +0000 Angie 1690695@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Smashing inspiration with a fun social memory attached to it too. The gift that keeps on giving. </p> <p>What a delightful set of simple and soothing outfits, Isabelle. The calm jumps off my phone screen. #2 and #3 are my best. I love that style of top on you. Raglan sleeves look good on dainty shoulders. </p> <p>Great tree pose too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sorbaria-kirilowii#post-1690673 Thu, 07 Jul 2016 18:05:43 +0000 Suz 1690673@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So beautiful -- both the tree and your outfits. The blousey blush sweater &nbsp;echoes the shape of the tree, overspilling itself. Your shoes in #4 echo the now-orange.&nbsp;</p> <p>You do a terrific tree!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sorbaria-kirilowii#post-1690665 Thu, 07 Jul 2016 17:56:23 +0000 skylurker 1690665@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorbaria kirilowii : that's the name of a tree planted in the botanical garden where I met Shevia last week.</p> <p>I love that tree, and its beige/tan/white flowers - turning into brown/orange very fast though - and I took it as inspiration for my outfits this week, by wearing tonal pale colours. </p>
