I like the colour palette too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-tweaking#post-2408343 Sun, 15 Mar 2026 15:39:03 +0000 kkards 2408343@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great tweaks. &nbsp;Cuffing is such a simple yet effective way to make an outfit to look different/current/casual. The other trick that I use to “casaulize” an outfit is to add a layer underneath my sweater but the shirt hanging out. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-tweaking#post-2408340 Sun, 15 Mar 2026 14:04:57 +0000 Carla 2408340@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’ll second what&nbsp;<b>LJP&nbsp;</b>wrote in her first post. &nbsp;I feel she identified what is successful about ypur tweaks.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-tweaking#post-2408336 Sun, 15 Mar 2026 12:16:49 +0000 Dee 2408336@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>IRINA- Happy you like the cuffing, and I find hair projects always exciting.<br /> LJP- Excellent endeavor for your milestone 65th.<br /> JAIME-Glad to hear the tweaks made a difference.<br /> Yep, socks are such a fun and effective way to tweak outfits.<br /> LISA- Thanks, you really know how to put together wonderful casual and whimsical combinations.<br /> SHARAN- Thank you, and the heart sweater is my "new to me" favorite at the moment.<br /> SLIM CAT- Appreciate your kind feedback. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-tweaking#post-2408332 Sun, 15 Mar 2026 06:42:40 +0000 slim cat 2408332@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love cuffed jeans - looks fresh and energetic!

I noticed the cuffs right away and really like the look on you. I can see how the other elements that you mention add playfulness as well. The new heart sweater is fantastic on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-tweaking#post-2408316 Sun, 15 Mar 2026 02:20:45 +0000 Lisa 2408316@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like your undone look, as a person with very casual style myself, these tweaks really speak to me. Lovely way to tweak your outfits!</p> <p>I also really like the striped top peeking out from the teal layer. Lovely idea to showcase a stripe with the solid paired together. Bravo! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-tweaking#post-2408306 Sat, 14 Mar 2026 23:46:44 +0000 Jaime 2408306@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great tweaks and they make a big difference. I think my biggest spring tweak will involve socks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-tweaking#post-2408298 Sat, 14 Mar 2026 21:37:35 +0000 LJP 2408298@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As to your question about tweaking style ? I’m also not sure about any direction yet . I’m on more of a “ personal development “ mission for the next while as I’m determined to slide into my 65th bday in June as my best ( looking and feeling self ) . I’m also considering letting my hair return to its natural colour ( whatever that is ) . Style will follow . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-tweaking#post-2408277 Sat, 14 Mar 2026 17:16:08 +0000 Irina 2408277@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like how you cuffed your pants &amp;jeans! Looks effortless and modern.&nbsp;<div>I’m looking at different silhouettes this year but nothing definite yet. And as I often do, I’m on another hair “project” :)</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-tweaking#post-2408276 Sat, 14 Mar 2026 16:58:42 +0000 Dee 2408276@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>ANGIE- Thanks so much, you made my day with "You look extra youthful". Enjoyed watching your style shift, the toffee, whiskeys and browns look so wonderful on you.</p> <p>LISE- Thanks, yes, you got it. It is that little "undone" which I'm after at the moment. Haha, I guess you jumped the gun a little wearing your sneakers this soon, I too, have a whole parade of footwear on the ready as the weather keeps changing its mind.</p> <p>LJP- Thanks. I like this change of pace too and cuffed straight jeans somehow feels fresh to me again. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-tweaking#post-2408257 Sat, 14 Mar 2026 15:07:05 +0000 LJP 2408257@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like this look for you . It’s more styled yet still casual and suitable for your lifestyle . The cuffed pants make such a big difference in terms of adding interest . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-tweaking#post-2408253 Sat, 14 Mar 2026 14:28:37 +0000 Star (Lise) 2408253@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can see it! A little 'undone', in a good way. I'm all for undone :).</p> <p>I doubt I can call it tweaking but I tried swapping my heavier coat for lighter jackets, wearing my cargos instead of cords and sneaks instead of boots, and I FROZE! So clearly I am going to have to get more creative, like you have done, to deal with my Deep Winter Wardrobe Doldrums. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-tweaking#post-2408252 Sat, 14 Mar 2026 14:28:25 +0000 Angie 2408252@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><i>To answer your question:&nbsp;<u></u></i></p> <p>I tweaked my style in a big way by adding toffees, whiskeys and browns to my outfits the last few years - to match my darker hair. Much enjoying the style shift! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-tweaking#post-2408251 Sat, 14 Mar 2026 14:25:19 +0000 Angie 2408251@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>(I hear you on Winter. It snowed in Seattle yesterday...)</p> <p><b>Dee</b>, I love the heart tee! Looks KILLER perfect on you. Fun with the matching necklace. The cuffed cords look super cute too!</p> <p>501's - of which I have a few pairs too! - were MEANT to be cuffed or rolled, to my eye! You wear the vibe with panache. Modern (and rero)! The sentimental cardigan looks dead right in every way.</p> <p>Successful style tweaks! Amps up "the current". You look extra youthful :)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-tweaking#post-2408248 Sat, 14 Mar 2026 13:59:39 +0000 Dee 2408248@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sadly, the winter weather here is still hanging on, so I decided to do some experimentation to tweak my winter style slightly. I wanted less structure and refinement, so I flirted with adding more of a relaxed, outdoorsy, whimsical vibe that still has my style essence. It’s pretty subtle but I think its almost there.</p> <p><b>Photo 1</b>- Burgundy Gap cords, newly thrifted Gap coloured heart sweater and my black string heart necklace. Dug out my old black leather Fossil crossbody bag.</p> <p><b>Photo 2</b>- Levis 501 jeans, striped Breton long sleeve tee under a pine green zipped cardigan that once belonged to my mom. Added the pendant heart necklace and Fossil crossbody once again. </p> <p>Some of the tweaks attempting to achieve this vibe were:</p> <ul> <li>Cuffing my jeans and cords so they read more casual and expose the ankle boots more.</li> <li>Added a less structured leather crossbody bag with some brown leather details on the trim</li> <li>Wore a woodsy green coloured ribbed knit zipped cardigan</li> <li>No obvious tucking or belting.</li> <li>Charcoal Gap sweater has a subtle fuzzy knit texture and a multi-coloured heart graphic along with the metal heart pendant necklace for some additional playfulness.</li> </ul> <p><i>How did I do with my tweaked up versions? </i></p> <p><i>Anyone else feel the need to tweak their style a little differently?<br /> </i> </p>
