I am enjoying the chance to pull out some lighter colors and fabrics to wear.<br /> Hahaha Cee! I never thought of that, but you are right. Bangles are so much more attractive than a can of mace.<br /> Oh Angie, thank you so much for your kind and generous comments. They warm my heart. If I saw you strolling down a street, checking out the window displays, of course, I would introduce myself. I would love a chance to meet you and chat with you. Perhaps we would opt for tea and popovers, which is a seasonal tradition here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-wiw/page/2#post-1916573 Sat, 05 May 2018 17:18:39 +0000 Mainelady 1916573@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Style Fan, a Samoyed! They are such beautiful dogs! Alaska is a Siberian Husky. She does love the outdoors, especially when it is cold, but she is fussy about wet feet. She tries hard to avoid going out if it is raining and won’t step in a puddle. She loves our family frolics and walks and trots right up the steps with us when we come in. Her first stop is at the treat bin. Second stop is either her bed, or one of the couches.....which ever is closest to us. Her brother, Forest, lives with us, too. He is a big goofy guy who is happiest when he has a paw resting on one of us. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-wiw/page/2#post-1916500 Sat, 05 May 2018 15:31:34 +0000 Freckles 1916500@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really love the tan pants and top on you.&nbsp; The shoes are awesome as is that utility jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-wiw#post-1916484 Sat, 05 May 2018 15:03:12 +0000 Style Fan 1916484@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love all your outfits Mainelady.&nbsp; My favourite is the one with the field jacket in the second set of pictures.&nbsp; I have a sweet eye for utility jackets.&nbsp; I like the skirt that your sister gave you and the fact that it is made of sweatshirt material makes it even nicer.&nbsp; How cozy.&nbsp; You always have such nice jewellery and layer your pieces so beautifully.<br />Alaska is a beauty.&nbsp; What kind of dog is she?&nbsp; A Siberian Husky or Alaskan Malamute?&nbsp; I have a Samoyed.&nbsp; She spends the entire day outside. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-wiw#post-1916466 Sat, 05 May 2018 14:11:54 +0000 SarahD8 1916466@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great, Mainelady. I really like the simplicity of the tan/field jacket outfit (and the floral detail on the shoes!!!). The long back hem f the top two n the last outfit looks modern and kicky to my eye. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-wiw#post-1916462 Sat, 05 May 2018 14:05:41 +0000 Angie 1916462@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>New England Casual Glam, <b>Mainelady. </b>You are pretty, polished, current, adorned and&nbsp;adorable.

They fit my criteria when I was shopping for light colored footwear and they are soooo comfortable! The olive jacket is J Crew and 5-6 years old. Today was a jeans day! I am glad the top worked. I am willing to try new styles, but find I second guess myself and need time for my eyes to adjust.<br /> Thank you Windchime! My spring and summer footwear is so much more colorful than what I wear in the winter. The older I get, the more I love flats. One of my goals this spring was to update and replace footwear. I did get lucky in my search. Oh, I am flattered to think you might copy one of my outfits. You have no idea how big my smile is right now!<br /> Thank you, Aida. I like th tan and white and it seemed to work with my hair. I was afraid it would be too pale. Thanks for the vote for the top. Perhaps classic old me can use a good dose of drama every once in a while! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-wiw#post-1916308 Fri, 04 May 2018 22:35:20 +0000 Aida 1916308@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Next set of outfits looks great too! Particularly fond of the first. The low back hem in the last is fab, adds some fun extra drama ^^ </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-wiw#post-1916296 Fri, 04 May 2018 21:49:37 +0000 Windchime 1916296@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>More love from me for your floral loafers—how fun! Actually, you have wonderful footwear choices in all of your outfits. Your coral sweater in #1 is a gorgeous color on you, and your gold shoes add such a nice sparkle to the outfit. And I might copycat your outfit in #2. I think I have the items to do so, including the navy and white striped scarf. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-wiw#post-1916295 Fri, 04 May 2018 21:41:20 +0000 ChrisM 1916295@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m in love with the flower loafers! What brand are they?</p> <p>All of these outfits look lovely. So classy. Love the olive jacket with your coloring. Bangle love, here. IMO you need the length of the floral top in picture 9 because of the skinny jeans.</p> <p>Like many threads going, I struggle with warm weather wear. I want to stay covered, but cool. You seems to have it down! Well done! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-wiw#post-1916290 Fri, 04 May 2018 21:25:14 +0000 Mainelady 1916290@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lisa P, Cindysmith, freckles and Sal. I have only worn midi skirts with boots so this look is new to me. Freckles, you may be right. I may need to give my eyes time to adjust.<br /> Thank you Joy. I have a lot of fun mixing up my bangles.<br /> That’s a good suggestion Barbara Diane. I will happily try a patterned top next time.<br /> Aida, I might try tucking with the skirt. It has a fold over waist, so a belt might be tricky, but it is worth a try.<br /> Hahaha, Angie. For a working breed and one that usually loves the outdoors, Alaska thinks she is a Princess Lap Dog.</p> <p>Ok, Fabbers. You continue to support me and guide me so I am adding a couple of other outfits for you perusal. Offer up your ideas, please!<br /> #1-3 calling Spring! Tan with a cargo jacket for warmth.<br /> #4-5 Black, blue and bangles. Is the top too voluminous?<br /> #6-10 Floral fest (the first of a few floral numbers for a Plant Kindness and Gather Love Musical I am working on......more about that in another post. Stay tuned.). Is this top ok? Too long in th back? It is the first time I have worn it. Maybe my eyes need to adjust?</p> <p>Thanks for looking! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-wiw#post-1915968 Fri, 04 May 2018 03:23:48 +0000 Freckles 1915968@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfits!&nbsp; I love long skirts and this one is fab on you.&nbsp; Maybe you're eye just needs to get used to the look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-wiw#post-1915923 Fri, 04 May 2018 01:15:17 +0000 Aida 1915923@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both nice outfits! For the first I don't know that tucking+belting is <i>necessary</i>; it would add some polish, but this version has a relaxed classic vibe to it. The shoes in the second look good to me; you've got the stripey scarf and denim jacket which add enough other casual elements. Did you try tucking with that outfit? Might be nice with the lines of the skirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-wiw#post-1915873 Thu, 03 May 2018 20:50:38 +0000 Sal 1915873@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice looks and wonderful bracelets!!</p> <p>I like 1 with the sweater out - but I would also be interested to see it tucked with a belt.&nbsp; I think either will work.</p> <p>I do like the skirt in 2 - with the flats and the scarf.&nbsp; I think the proportions work well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-wiw#post-1915809 Thu, 03 May 2018 18:16:03 +0000 Barbara Diane 1915809@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like both outfits. I might try varying the second with a lighter color or lighter print sweater with some black in the print. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-wiw#post-1915733 Thu, 03 May 2018 14:38:55 +0000 Anonymous 1915733@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wonderful outfits and you are the bracelet queen.

Thank you all for your kind comments and observations.<br /> Thank you Jussie. The Keds were fun. Wearning sneakers to work (unless on a Jeans day or field trip) is new for me. I have always worn a more professional look. My feet were so happy and my students thought I was cool.<br /> Suzanimal, the skirt is from Max Weekend and actually a very soft sweatshirt type material. The inside of the skirt is a blue and white variegated stripe, which doesn’t show well in the picture. I think I will like the skirt with sandals, to lighten the look.<br /> Angie, thank you! When I get a Killer from you, I immediately stop second guessing myself. That is a huge gift and time saver. The photo bomber is Alaska. She is a sweetie and always likes to be near her mama. She is usually on her bed just out of the camera range.<br /> Thank you Cardiff Girl! My daughter left the scarf here last weekend and I decided to keep it company until she picks it up.<br /> Thank you Sara L. I do like the length of the pants and of course I love my bracelets. I am so happy arms were designed with length. I can stack a whole bunch before I have to worry about bending my elbows.<br /> Thank you toronotogirl. It makes me happy to wear some brighter colors after a long winter.<br /> Katerina! Thank you! Compliments about my scarf and jewelry from an icon!<br /> Krishnidoux you have a good idea. Framing the skirt with a belt and wearing stacked heels (I have a couple of great pairs of sandals) hit really help with the longer length.<br /> Thanks, efbgen. My little photobomber brings even more happiness than my bangles. If only she could join me at work....<br /> Suz, thank you so much! My furry friend sees you waving and is wagging her tail and hoping you have treats with you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-wiw#post-1915501 Wed, 02 May 2018 19:56:51 +0000 Suz 1915501@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like #2, actually, and think it works perfectly as is. I also think you look amazing in red/ coral!

My favorite is #2<br />I see how you want the skirt to love you back! I wonder if it could be a tad too long? Otherwise, I recommend framing it with a belt. Pointy flats or stacked heel sandals? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-wiw#post-1915443 Wed, 02 May 2018 17:16:22 +0000 Katerina 1915443@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful outfits!
