I’m glad you have lots of support in your decision to wear the new knit pants. I agree! I think they look great and do not read as too casual at all! Enjoy them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sufficient-style-for-work#post-2336994 Wed, 30 Aug 2023 04:27:05 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2336994@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>I'm late, because I see you've already made your decision--which I would have endorsed as well! I just had to say those pants are dynamite on you, and I love them with the smashing work tops/jackets and footwear. <br /></div><div>And I can empathize with that mid-winter boredom, dressing for the cold day after day. Having fun footwear helps at least a little bit!<br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sufficient-style-for-work#post-2336987 Wed, 30 Aug 2023 03:01:20 +0000 Jenni NZ 2336987@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hey another quick thanks to all commenters. I did wear the new pants to work with cream knitwear yesterday. No comments on the pants but one compliment on the cream, and I was nice and comfortable all day. Can’t wait until it warms up a bit here. Spring is on its way… </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sufficient-style-for-work#post-2336690 Mon, 28 Aug 2023 14:47:14 +0000 quietloud 2336690@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the pants are great, and you look polished and professional in all the combos! Dress codes where I live are pretty much non-existent, but even so I can't imagine this being inappropriate anywhere. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sufficient-style-for-work#post-2336642 Mon, 28 Aug 2023 02:03:01 +0000 Suz 2336642@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Brooklyn said! These look good and especially so with the new top!&nbsp; I think they are absolutely professional enough.&nbsp;</p> <p>My new family doctor is a young(ish) -- i.e. young-to-me, LOL -- Muslim woman who wears hijab that matches her outfit. She wears modest (i.e. maxi-length) skirts/ dresses and a comfortable blazer or cardigan and sometimes a lab coat over this -- and flat shoes. She looks terrific, and relaxed.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sufficient-style-for-work#post-2336632 Mon, 28 Aug 2023 00:36:08 +0000 Jaime 2336632@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well I can't say anything about dressing like a doctor - anything goes here - but I do love the pieces, especially the sparkly peplum. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sufficient-style-for-work#post-2336577 Sun, 27 Aug 2023 18:23:44 +0000 lyn67 2336577@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Of course you can wear (all!) these to work, or anywhere wanted!!!! Very nice updated and flattering smart looks here ALL! It has to do with your polished shoes, PPL and fab silver hair, too! YLF!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sufficient-style-for-work#post-2336566 Sun, 27 Aug 2023 16:56:56 +0000 Carol 2336566@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You pull off tones of grey and black great. And though the asymmetrical top is not my style, the colors and graphic quality look great on you.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sufficient-style-for-work#post-2336556 Sun, 27 Aug 2023 16:09:18 +0000 Janet 2336556@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks perfectly appropriate to me! </p> <p>I’m weary of hot weather dressing. Trade you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sufficient-style-for-work#post-2336553 Sun, 27 Aug 2023 15:55:17 +0000 Angie 2336553@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice to see you, <b>Jenni</b>!&nbsp;</p> <p>Your silver pixie is looking extra fab!&nbsp;</p> <p>I echo<b> Brooklyn </b>and<b> bj11111.</b></p> <p><b></b>YES to the smashing length of the pants, fun shoes in #5, and KILLER asymmetrical top in #2. Can absolutely wear all these looks to work!&nbsp;</p> <p>What doctors wear here in Seattle runs the GAMUT. Some are well dressed. Our fab physician friend is very well dressed! My own GP is a good classic dresser. Our dermatologist too. Some wear scrubs. Most wear lab coats. I've had a GP who did not wear a lab coat and looked like she was going to gym. Leggings, sneakers and a tight athletic zip top.<b></b> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sufficient-style-for-work#post-2336545 Sun, 27 Aug 2023 15:12:42 +0000 Anonymous 2336545@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes from me too! I like outfit 4 most! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sufficient-style-for-work#post-2336544 Sun, 27 Aug 2023 15:05:29 +0000 Carla 2336544@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The end of winter is a hard time to feel inspired when it comes to dressing, and especially if it’s cold and light levels are low due to rain, etc. &nbsp;I’m with the rest of the gang in giving a ‘thumbs up’ to wearing the pants for work. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sufficient-style-for-work#post-2336528 Sun, 27 Aug 2023 12:48:13 +0000 Helena 2336528@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look very polished in all of these ... I think this is perfect for a professional who also has to be ready to move rather than sitting at a computer all day. These shades of gray are fabulous on you. YLF! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sufficient-style-for-work#post-2336527 Sun, 27 Aug 2023 12:44:23 +0000 The Cat 2336527@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your shoes in #5 would add interest to many outfits, and they suit your sophisticated professional style very well</p> <p>. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sufficient-style-for-work#post-2336525 Sun, 27 Aug 2023 12:28:59 +0000 Jules 2336525@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the fit and the ‘pleat’ detail take them into proper pants territory for sure! I love #2, the top really looks great with your hair. In fact I would add more contrast to #4 in the form of a white or grey top underneath perhaps? Or you could do bright pink or turquoise for that 80s vibe you love. The peplum outfit is my least favourite, but perfectly fine too.</p> <p>I think we are both colour lovers, but this black/grey direction might be interesting to explore more for you, it’s reading sophisticated. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sufficient-style-for-work#post-2336524 Sun, 27 Aug 2023 11:40:30 +0000 JamC 2336524@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A very good look! I wouldn’t hesitate to wear these to work. And you already have tops and shoes that work with them. Great choice. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sufficient-style-for-work#post-2336521 Sun, 27 Aug 2023 11:17:21 +0000 Olive Green 2336521@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look &nbsp;fine untucked and wearing the knit pants, and any topper instantly boosts the formal factor. The asymmetrical tunic is my favourite.&nbsp;<br />Most of the doctors I see here are wearing jeans and cowboy boots or sneakers, with scrubs tops or bottoms mixed in. Very informal.&nbsp;<br />You do look reassuring! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sufficient-style-for-work#post-2336518 Sun, 27 Aug 2023 10:56:18 +0000 Dee 2336518@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your new pants look totally professional to my eye. I'd say enjoy wearing them to work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sufficient-style-for-work#post-2336514 Sun, 27 Aug 2023 08:40:30 +0000 Jenni NZ 2336514@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Awesome thanks everyone! I thought from the pics it probably would be OK but don’t usually wear knit pants I guess, although the ponte/leather patch ones are partly knit fabric.<br /> Peri, I don’t ever wear a white coat in my community practice, left those behind in the hospital in 1986!<br /> Thank you Pirouette for such a kind thought! I do try to be warm and caring, it mostly goes well except for the occasional very demanding person! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sufficient-style-for-work#post-2336512 Sun, 27 Aug 2023 08:24:48 +0000 Sal 2336512@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I say yes! Looking good.</p> <p>The winter has been uninspiring - the election year, economy, rain etc have made things very flat…. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sufficient-style-for-work#post-2336509 Sun, 27 Aug 2023 08:14:32 +0000 The Cat 2336509@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look professional and fab. #2 is gorgeous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sufficient-style-for-work#post-2336506 Sun, 27 Aug 2023 07:16:20 +0000 pirouette 2336506@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you look very smart in your work outfits and very appropriate for a GP. If you don’t mind me saying I think you would make patients feel very comfortable you radiate warmth and caring. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sufficient-style-for-work#post-2336503 Sun, 27 Aug 2023 06:46:04 +0000 Star (Lise) 2336503@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I say you can definitely wear them for work with the appropriate shoes and top, especially as in pic 4.&nbsp; The asymmetrical top is an interesting piece, very nice. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sufficient-style-for-work#post-2336499 Sun, 27 Aug 2023 05:23:31 +0000 slim cat 2336499@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very nice! Love the zippers - fun details. The asymmetrical top and printed jacket are both great - fab additions! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sufficient-style-for-work#post-2336496 Sun, 27 Aug 2023 04:10:47 +0000 rachylou 2336496@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Way fancier than my doctor! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sufficient-style-for-work#post-2336484 Sun, 27 Aug 2023 02:39:23 +0000 bj1111 2336484@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love them in #2. The longer jacket with the tapered pants feels especially on trend.</p> <p>I wear jeans to work so I would wear these in a heartbeat</p> <p>Horses for courses </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sufficient-style-for-work#post-2336481 Sun, 27 Aug 2023 02:14:11 +0000 Brooklyn 2336481@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they look good. And professional. I think the fact that there is ease in the fit makes them look dressier than fitted pants. Love the outfit with the asymmetrical top! Good purchases Jenni! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sufficient-style-for-work#post-2336480 Sun, 27 Aug 2023 02:12:23 +0000 Sally 2336480@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also have to add I have had the most boring winter ever too in terms of dressing.&nbsp; It's just too cold and wet.&nbsp; I have been wearing two merinos and a coat most days with pants/jeans boots and a scarf.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sufficient-style-for-work#post-2336478 Sun, 27 Aug 2023 02:07:52 +0000 Sally 2336478@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think absolutely they look professional.&nbsp; I don't know about length as I am not an expert on that.&nbsp; But as someone who has visited health clinics in NZ, I would say you look totally professional and no one would think you were looking too casual.&nbsp; You could even wear sketchers with them as long as they weren't worn and scruffy.&nbsp; &nbsp; </p>
