You look great. I would wear that outfit in a heartbeat.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-colors/page/2#post-2193790 Sun, 09 May 2021 08:23:48 +0000 Zaeobi 2193790@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh cool, I can't remember the last time I went to London lol - possibly 2017, as a connecting train stop </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-colors/page/2#post-2193787 Sun, 09 May 2021 07:55:03 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2193787@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Z, we popped over to London just before Covid—Feb 2020. Thanks for mentioning the nail colors. Good to know </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-colors/page/2#post-2193772 Sun, 09 May 2021 02:13:09 +0000 Zaeobi 2193772@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like how it all comes together - you pull off the pinks &amp; purples in your accessories well, because of the colour of your hair &amp; jacket </p> <p>The swans are cute - I find them to be more tolerable than geese. I've never been to Berlin - kept meaning to do a Europe trip before Brexit but, we all know what happened instead </p> <p>As for the nail polish, I know that many non-toxic brands now exist too. Olive &amp; June is one I've heard lot about but never tried - apparently their manis usually last a good 2-3 weeks:<br /> <a href="https://oliveandjune.com/products/the-poppy" rel="nofollow">https://oliveandjune.com/products/the-poppy</a> </p> <p>Many Muslim brands in particular are also popping up that offer water permeable polishes (i.e. that water can pass through to the nailbed, making them more breathable. They don't tend to last as long as a result, though). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-colors/page/2#post-2193770 Sun, 09 May 2021 01:54:28 +0000 rachylou 2193770@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lol. See that’s awesome because I had a Swiss-German French teacher, but I actually had her for knitting not French... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-colors/page/2#post-2193711 Sat, 08 May 2021 20:36:36 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2193711@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Merci vielmal.

In the 90s, I was in grad school, with an Esprit outlet between where I lived and where I grew up. When I visited, I was often late for dinner. When they came to see me, they were often amazed at how little traffic there was to slow them down </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-colors#post-2193305 Fri, 07 May 2021 13:12:55 +0000 Rosie 2193305@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the cropped brown suede jacket! So impressed that you still have it saved from the 90's. I used to love and covet Espirit in the 90's! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-colors#post-2193292 Fri, 07 May 2021 12:30:23 +0000 Helena 2193292@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This look really suits you to my eye FI.

I may have to steal that jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-colors#post-2193265 Fri, 07 May 2021 10:02:02 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2193265@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>RoseandJoan, what a lovely way to “meet” someone. Thank you! </p> <p>Bijou, I get to walk by that area every time I go to the grocery store. There are tulips, daffodils and hyacinth planted in the most whimsical patterns, just big curves and spirals, right in the middle of the grass. </p> <p>Today I have to look at these pictures to have hope, because it is SNOWING. Big, wet flakes. They’re not going to stick but oy vey, what a day! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-colors#post-2193262 Fri, 07 May 2021 09:49:52 +0000 RoseandJoan 2193262@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well this is my first outfit of yours that I have seen and I'm getting a strong Lauren Hutton, Ralph Lauren vibe from the look.</p> <p>The jacket is such a rich shade of brown and the fun boots and belt stop the look from veering too classic.</p> <p>I think you look fab. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-colors#post-2193256 Fri, 07 May 2021 09:31:30 +0000 Bijou 2193256@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fashintern - a great outfit and such beautiful photos of spring. I especially love photo #3 - a beautiful background for your portrait. The swans are very sweet too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-colors#post-2193228 Fri, 07 May 2021 07:50:55 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2193228@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suntiger, the color inspiration came from your “plain” outfit. I’m unlearning my training that black and browns don’t go together. Soft white/ cream like the top wasn’t worn with black either. </p> <p>Sally, this is Berlin. The pond used to be part of a canal, but it backed up. Then they made it a garden. After the war, it was part of the border. In the 90s, the garden was restored and the pond put in. We love the trains too. My son is angry the the USA doesn’t have them. </p> <p>Thanks Cardiff! Crop tops came around just so I could wear the jacket, right? </p> <p>Style fan, it’s a new kind of color coordinating for me. I think you do it well. </p> <p>Lyn67, I love me some brocade, and the belt lets me slip it in there. </p> <p>Katerina, it’s always the simple ones I don’t work on that turn out best. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-colors#post-2193226 Fri, 07 May 2021 07:22:25 +0000 Sally 2193226@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit FashionIntern, the pieces compliment each other and I like how you bookended the shoes with your hair.&nbsp; Beautiful scenery.&nbsp; Where is this in Germany?&nbsp; I travelled by train around Germany once with my mother...It was a fantastic place.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-colors#post-2193084 Thu, 06 May 2021 22:09:23 +0000 Style Fan 2193084@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree that this is one of your best looks.&nbsp; I love the colour of your jacket with the denim. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-colors#post-2192842 Thu, 06 May 2021 11:32:31 +0000 Anonymous 2192842@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aww swans! The outfit looks great, love the belt especially! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-colors#post-2192839 Thu, 06 May 2021 10:25:21 +0000 lyn67 2192839@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great almost all neutral big contrast outfit which probably&nbsp; can be used in fall, too- but here the&nbsp; white top, nail color and the patterned belt screams Spring-to me! (love the blooming tree behind you!).&nbsp; Also the white top and metallic booties&nbsp; bookend your hair well- so it all has a calm, relaxing vibe-YLF and really edgy with your long salt-and pepper hair!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-colors#post-2192832 Thu, 06 May 2021 09:50:52 +0000 Katerina 2192832@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, FashIntern! This must be the best ever! I love the whole thing! Very chic and fun outfit. The jacket is super fab. And the pants and belt and shoes and the styling.<br /> I am amazed that the nail polish still works - looks great. Enjoy the spring in Berlin! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-colors#post-2192828 Thu, 06 May 2021 07:44:47 +0000 Cardiff girl 2192828@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am loving the nail varnish on you ,great colour,and the proportions of that jacket really suit you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-colors#post-2192821 Thu, 06 May 2021 06:34:22 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2192821@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, everyone! </p> <p>Sal, changes of season are just wonderful, aren’t they? </p> <p>Smittie, the color on my nails won’t be a regular feature, but i had fun with it that day. </p> <p>Slim cat, interesting take. Except for the placement of pattern, I see this as very much in line with my usual style, classic lines with lurking quirk if you look more closely. </p> <p>Angie, such high praise—thanks! And the blog post you mention—the one I linked to in the original post here?</p> <p>Thanks Jenn! Appreciate you taking a look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-colors#post-2192805 Thu, 06 May 2021 04:13:18 +0000 slim cat 2192805@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice look - more restrained ( neutral solid colors ) with great accessories ( nice jewelry! ) - works great for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-colors#post-2192759 Wed, 05 May 2021 22:29:56 +0000 Jenn 2192759@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Angie. This is one of your best! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-colors#post-2192753 Wed, 05 May 2021 21:54:11 +0000 Sal 2192753@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like this look a lot on you Fashintern.&nbsp; Your hair looks really great - very sleek and I do like it pulled back like this.&nbsp; The proportions and mix of interesting boots and belt with a classic hairstyle and jeans look sharp.</p> <p>I am pleased you can enjoy touches of Spring in Berlin. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-colors#post-2192750 Wed, 05 May 2021 21:47:17 +0000 smittie 2192750@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very nice.

KILLER proportions. Sleek, flattering, good lengths and widths, and nice neutrals. WELL DONE.&nbsp;</p> <p>And look at how great the white is with your greying hair - blog post two days ago. You match the blossoms and swans perfectly too!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-colors#post-2192735 Wed, 05 May 2021 20:46:43 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2192735@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Sloper, glad you like the color combo &amp; the belt. If I knew about a drop off for the polish, I wouldn’t be able to rationalize wearing it, so shhhhh—don’t tell me. </p> <p>LaPed, wow—Stevie Nicks is cool! I remember being amazed by her in high school (Bella Dona) and she is still kick-ass. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-colors#post-2192727 Wed, 05 May 2021 20:16:30 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2192727@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ophelia, you are so observant and full of compliments—thank you! The ring and pendant are opals, given to me by my parents when I was a young woman. The jacket is a good measure of my arms—there were years when the sleeves were like sausage casings, so I’m glad I can wear it now. The bottom of my tush is round enough, I guess, but I want the top—the gluteus medius—to be rounder too. Thanks for the compliment on my hair! I’m forever trying to decide what, if anything, I should do with it. Summer is supposedly the time to get it chopped, but if I do that, I won’t be able to put it up, so I’ll have to go all the way to really short. Then I wouldn’t have much variety in what I could do with it, but it’s not like I change it up a lot now, so I go full circle.</p> <p>ETA the swans! I forgot to mention the little cygnets I circled. </p>
