I think the green blazer is the most you- and I think the color is fab. &nbsp; I think, as you’ve noted, the blouse is the least you. &nbsp;And only you can decide if that’s what you want…as you note, it’s hard to layer over, as a person who needs/wants to layer, I would not discount that, but YMMV. &nbsp; I’m neutral on the cardi, it’s nice, color is good, but it’s not a wow.&nbsp;</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-refresh-kr#post-2309247 Mon, 20 Feb 2023 09:33:10 +0000 Bijou 2309247@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the blouse because it will be a useful summer piece - providing sun protection even on the hottest days and looks light and airy.</p> <p>So sorry to hear that your Dad is not well and you have health issues too. Thinking of you at this time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-refresh-kr#post-2309239 Mon, 20 Feb 2023 05:06:46 +0000 Angie 2309239@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes! You can wear items in high Summer that are hard to layer over. You won’t need another layer. Remember how much hotter Summers are these days…..</p> <p>And change is good. The blouse is a fab change </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-refresh-kr#post-2309217 Mon, 20 Feb 2023 01:12:22 +0000 Jaime 2309217@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a terribly tough time - I completely understand how fashion challenges would be a welcome distraction. My favorite is the white blouse in terms of adding something different.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-refresh-kr#post-2309190 Sun, 19 Feb 2023 22:55:46 +0000 Echo 2309190@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am so sorry to hear about your and your father's health. So much on your plate so soon after such a tremendous loss.</p> <p>I adore the white shirt and the green jacket, and both are extremely flattering with the jeans you are wearing with them. I am normally not a huge fan of short jackets with pants, but this really works, IMO. I'm not as fond of the blue sweater.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-refresh-kr#post-2309179 Sun, 19 Feb 2023 21:12:41 +0000 Suz 2309179@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Anchie, I'm so sorry you are going through these challenges. It is touch when a parent is unwell and especially so if your own hormones are out of whack.&nbsp;</p> <p>These are all lovely but I especially like the jacket and the blouse. Yes, the blouse is a bit unexpected but could be so useful with skirts or jeans on its own in summer. Romantic. I like the sweater, too, but I would try another size to see if you prefer the fit.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-refresh-kr#post-2309174 Sun, 19 Feb 2023 20:25:05 +0000 Irina 2309174@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the color of the cardigan very much but I suggest to try one size up, it might look more relaxed and modern.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-refresh-kr#post-2309165 Sun, 19 Feb 2023 17:38:37 +0000 SW Ann 2309165@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>I am so sorry to hear about your father. The stress of all that you have been dealing with is undoubtedly affecting your thyroid.&nbsp; Wishing you strength and wisdom through this difficult time in your life.</div><div>As for the 3 items...I liked them all! I like the blue sweater because the color is gorgeous, and a soft cashmere is infinitely comforting.&nbsp; Comfort might be just the thing right now....I liked the white blouse because it is different, and pretty.&nbsp; And I love the green jacket for its spring color.&nbsp; You will have to judge the fit and "fitness" with your current wardrobe needs. <br /></div><div><br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-refresh-kr#post-2309158 Sun, 19 Feb 2023 16:59:58 +0000 Star (Lise) 2309158@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the green jacket.&nbsp; I think the colour suits you but impossible to tell from a computer screen. The white blouse is cool although not something I would wear, I realise I don't have to :).&nbsp; The blue colour of the cardi is stunning with your hair but the fit is very ordinary.&nbsp; Maybe a different piece in that colour?&nbsp; Wishing you strength in these tough times. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-refresh-kr#post-2309152 Sun, 19 Feb 2023 16:45:47 +0000 Kyle 2309152@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them all, but I LOVE the green jacket. A classic but modern style, and the green is very fresh and on trend. I think you will have fun styling it, too. The cardigan is my next favorite.it’s a great color with your hair and, again, offers many styling options. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-refresh-kr#post-2309144 Sun, 19 Feb 2023 16:12:51 +0000 Jules 2309144@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah I’m not sure about the fit of the cardigan either, although maybe more a matter of cut? It’s looser in the arms with the trendy dropped shoulder but then a bit fitted in the body and maybe an awkward length? But I can’t tell if it’s because it’s not the more trendy oversize cut, and maybe I just don’t have an eye for classic cuts right now (and I do see classic fit as part of your style). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-refresh-kr#post-2309142 Sun, 19 Feb 2023 15:55:58 +0000 slim cat 2309142@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cardigan and white blouse - not sure about green jacket.&nbsp;<br />Best wishes to your dad and hugs to you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-refresh-kr#post-2309141 Sun, 19 Feb 2023 15:51:06 +0000 anchie 2309141@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all for valuable feedback and for good wishes for my dad’s and my health. It means a lot. </p> <p>Here is my thinking about this 3 items. When I first put the blouse on, I thought it is definite no, similarly as many of you noticed, not really my style. But it started growing on me. Maybe something different is good? Not sure how practical it is, it doesn’t layer well, but it is spring summer piece, maybe I don’t need to layer everything and i can have something that is stand alone? Blazer is more my style and I wanted to get something green for spring, but not sure that it is right green. Also, maybe collar is too costumy? And cardigan is great quality, softest cashmere but not heavy weight, so it can be worn in summer evenings too. I love this blue color and think it goes well with my coloring but looking at the photo, not sure that I like how it fits. I would probably need to play more in my closet to see how well everything goes together. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-refresh-kr#post-2309136 Sun, 19 Feb 2023 15:42:48 +0000 Angie 2309136@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A tough and hard situation with Dad, and I greatly empathize, <b>Anchie</b>. Sending healing thoughts, good vibes, and hope your hormones feel better too.&nbsp;</p> <p>I echo everything <b>Tanya</b> said!

I hope fashion brings a bit of joy to your days. I like the blouse and the green jacket both very much. However, you should keep whatever makes you feel good when you wear it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-refresh-kr#post-2309129 Sun, 19 Feb 2023 14:35:34 +0000 Jules 2309129@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ugh my post got eaten… so I’ll keep it brief<br /> Green jacket - love and great fit for your style<br /> Blouse - gorgeous, not something I would have guessed for your style<br /> Cardigan - ho hum. I’m possibly biased due to not liking that blue personally but I don’t think it’s special enough to keep so early in the season? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-refresh-kr#post-2309127 Sun, 19 Feb 2023 14:25:57 +0000 Carla 2309127@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The blouse! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-refresh-kr#post-2309123 Sun, 19 Feb 2023 13:58:35 +0000 Tanya 2309123@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am so sorry about your Dad and everything else going on, Anchie.</p> <p>All the three pieces are lovely and fit you well, they are just very different and would likely serve different purposes, so I would decide based on that.</p> <p>The jacket is relatively typical for your style, but also very current.  It would work great for work, but could also be dressed down with wide jeans for other activities.</p> <p>The blouse is pretty and softer than what you usually do for tops.  It would make for a nice little change/update, if that is what you'd like.</p> <p>The cardigan had a beautiful color and would be more flexible with expected weight fluctuations.  I can also see it both dressed up and down. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-refresh-kr#post-2309119 Sun, 19 Feb 2023 13:16:33 +0000 Irina 2309119@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So sorry, Anchie! Wishing your father fast recovery.&nbsp;<div>I love the white blouse on you.&nbsp;</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-refresh-kr#post-2309118 Sun, 19 Feb 2023 13:07:42 +0000 phoebe 2309118@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The sweater fits very well overall, the low stance might make wearing it with t shirts a little awkward if it's buttoned but not with a blouse.</p> <p>The white blouse is beautiful and the only drawback might be over fullness of the sleeves, which could be altered. It's been very difficult for some time to find sleeves with ease rather than billow.</p> <p>The jacket is also a great fit, I might shorten the sleeves a bit to match the cropped style of the body.</p> <p>The pieces are all good and answer different needs but the standout might be the jacket for freshness and greatest opportunity for wear. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-refresh-kr#post-2309117 Sun, 19 Feb 2023 13:06:53 +0000 Janet 2309117@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m sending you good vibes — you’re dealing with a lot, and I’m impressed you have any energy at all for a fashion challenge at the moment! It’s probably a pleasant distraction. </p> <p>My favorite is the white top — it looks so good on you and the lightness and texture are really pretty as we move into spring. I’m guessing this would be for summer for you too? Can you layer over or under it?</p> <p>The green jacket is great too, especially if you need another for work. The cardigan is ok but not amazing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-refresh-kr#post-2309115 Sun, 19 Feb 2023 12:57:05 +0000 Dee 2309115@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh such a challenging time with your dad in hospital and your own health concerns too, I hope everything will be okay.<br /> If I were choosing I think the green blazer is a total stand out and the white flowy blouse is very pretty and would be a lovely casual piece for the spring and summer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-refresh-kr#post-2309106 Sun, 19 Feb 2023 11:48:08 +0000 Olive Green 2309106@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Anchie, we all feel for you. A sad and tough time. And your own health to look after. I hope you get the physical balanced soon.&nbsp;<br />I love the bright blue cardigan, and the blouse is extremely pretty. A real spring item.&nbsp;<br />Beauty is always a healing.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-refresh-kr#post-2309105 Sun, 19 Feb 2023 09:45:26 +0000 Jessikams 2309105@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh Anchie, what a difficult time. It’s so hard to try to take care of your own health while also trying to take care of your parents (and your kids…and spouses…. Sigh). Fashion is a nice easy escape in times like these.</p> <p>I love the white blouse, it’s super pretty but I’m not sure it fits your style? I think it’s a bit sweeter and more “relaxed” than what you usually post. I think of you as more sophisticated or elegant/formal. However I do remember that you might be seeking some weekend casual items….. in that case the blouse might do well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-refresh-kr#post-2309103 Sun, 19 Feb 2023 09:31:34 +0000 Jenni NZ 2309103@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So sorry about your Dad too. I think the green blazer stands out as easily the best of these 3. I am not sure the other two are as good, given that most of your looks are amazing and those two look a bit more ordinary? Nothing actually wrong with them of course. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-refresh-kr#post-2309102 Sun, 19 Feb 2023 08:45:24 +0000 Sisi 2309102@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Anchie, I am so sorry to hear about your Dad ! I hope everything will turn out fine. Best, best wishes and hugs.<br /> Nice pieces, I especially like the cardi and the blouse. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-refresh-kr#post-2309101 Sun, 19 Feb 2023 08:23:54 +0000 anchie 2309101@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ordered couple of items to refresh my spring wardrobe and my mood.<br /> My budget allows to keep maximum 2 of those 3, but I don’t have to keep any of course. What do you think? Any keepers or I should keep looking? There is no urgency to get anything. I don’t want to disclose my own thinking at this point, don’t want influence your opinion. </p> <p>Apologies for being not so active on the forum even though I am still trying to complete my February challenge. Have lot on my mind, my father is in hospital in critical condition after less than 2 months since my mom passed away. And my thyroid hormones are feeling out of control again, should get blood test results back tomorrow. </p>
