Lots of bigger silhouettes at Zara these days. Not a slamdunk fit for me anymore. Oh well. There is still plenty for me to enjoy. I am having the BEST Fall seasonal refresh. And I can enjoy the scratchy blouse on you. *smiling* </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-cos/page/2#post-1848581 Wed, 27 Sep 2017 02:16:44 +0000 Anonymous 1848581@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So stylish, so sophisticated. <br />I gravitate towards more masculine styles and fabrics because the quality often seems better and the lifespan of the item longer. I'm so impressed by how you've got the fit of your clothes and the fitting together of the pieces just right for a final feminine look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-cos/page/2#post-1848484 Tue, 26 Sep 2017 17:50:20 +0000 skylurker 1848484@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you Jane, I like the idea of a "loyal bag" </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-cos/page/2#post-1848244 Mon, 25 Sep 2017 17:16:34 +0000 Jane 1848244@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your shoe collection is stunning! I love the oxfords with the colour (pinkish?). Your suits are similarly stunning. You wear them so well. Great hair and what a loyal bag! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-cos/page/2#post-1848231 Mon, 25 Sep 2017 16:26:22 +0000 skylurker 1848231@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz : thank you, you're always so kind and make every one feels special.<br /> I'm new to this game, but I sense there's an art to mixing high with low : you buy plenty of low and you end up looking cheap because there's no money left to buy a good coat, a good suit, or good shoes...</p> <p>Angie : well, it's a rather scratchy viscose with seams all askew = Zara.<br /> But I tell myself to stop being such a snob, I can't afford it :)<br /> Pleasantly surprised that it's not scratchy to wear (esp as it's so close to my neck). Not washed it yet, curious to know how it will hold up.<br /> Oh, and I was amazed to discover I'm a XS in Zara, aren't delicate you sized out of all their stuff???</p> <p>Scarlet : thank you, I doubt my black bag goes with everything, but I just don't care about bags.<br /> Can't "Find" things on my ipad but here's the link :<br /> <a href="https://www.cosstores.com/fr/Women/Knitwear/Oversized_jumper_with_draped_neck/46889-75852545.1#c-22755" rel="nofollow">https://www.cosstores.com/fr/W......1#c-22755</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-cos/page/2#post-1848201 Mon, 25 Sep 2017 14:05:55 +0000 Suz 1848201@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look amazing in each and every one of the suits. I love your style, full stop. You wear your clothing with confidence, a bit of humour, and grace. (Angie said it better with "panache," but there you go.)&nbsp;</p> <p>Love the new pullover and blouse. Fast fashion -- guilty pleasure, perhaps, but also a useful resource!&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-cos/page/2#post-1848198 Mon, 25 Sep 2017 13:58:51 +0000 Angie 1848198@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Trinny is your new style muse - apparently. *smiling*</p> <p>I had my eye on that blouse too. Great minds.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-cos/page/2#post-1848173 Mon, 25 Sep 2017 13:31:34 +0000 Scarlet 1848173@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I enjoyed this series of WIWs so much. You have such a cohesive, strong, well-thought out look. It's simple and yet still visually rich. I secretly wish I could figure out how to get by with only one bag, but I am not disciplined about color schemes. </p> <p></p> <p>ETA: do you have a find for the COS jumper?</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-cos/page/2#post-1848151 Mon, 25 Sep 2017 11:54:19 +0000 skylurker 1848151@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Lyn, what a lovely thing to say : I've always wanted a strong personality </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-cos#post-1848134 Mon, 25 Sep 2017 09:50:38 +0000 lyn67 1848134@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If not a bag lady... but surely a suit lady!!! &nbsp;AND that coat in nr 5 is a(nother) piece of art!

Saw it on Trinny Woodall and wanted it. Also bought the navy coat she tried on - I had not set foot in Zara in 20 years - I'm very susceptible to insta videos, apparently </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-cos#post-1847953 Sun, 24 Sep 2017 18:34:00 +0000 skylurker 1847953@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Harmonica : thank you. I love when sleeves are extra long so I can do the peeking out trick, rarely happens with my long arms unfortunately :)<br /> I enjoy the routine of the suits, esp. in winter when I dress in the dark and cold, and I have zero interest in styling stuff. But I understand it's not for every one.</p> <p>Stylefan : thank you, glad the COS sweater works, esp. as I didn't think of doing a K/R post before I cut off the tag...</p> <p>Mirjana : thank you. The "trendy" part is all Angie's fault. I was never called trendy before YLF </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-cos#post-1847948 Sun, 24 Sep 2017 18:25:09 +0000 Angie 1847948@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Isabelle</b>, is that a new Zara blouse in #4?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-cos#post-1847936 Sun, 24 Sep 2017 17:48:39 +0000 harmonica 1847936@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look amazing! Especially love how the white shirt peeks out at the sleeves. Your style is so chic and stylish!! I wish my style was so coherent, though I know I crave variety.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-cos#post-1847803 Sun, 24 Sep 2017 08:27:26 +0000 Style Fan 1847803@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great suits.&nbsp; I love your hair.&nbsp; My favourite look is #6.&nbsp; That top was made for you.&nbsp; I also love #3.&nbsp; I wear that earthy brown colour when I can find it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-cos#post-1847802 Sun, 24 Sep 2017 08:22:47 +0000 Mirjana 1847802@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Prefect and trendy, I love suits and you wear them extra, so stylish. Gorgeous COS jumper, soft look, I like it very much. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-cos#post-1847796 Sun, 24 Sep 2017 07:35:19 +0000 skylurker 1847796@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jaime : thank you. No, 4 different suits #2 is black, #4 is blue, I know, light's not great in my place and it will only get worse in winter :)<br /> Actually #3 and #4 are the same suit, in different colours (I didn't want to duplicate, but suit choices are so scarce...) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-cos#post-1847760 Sun, 24 Sep 2017 02:34:08 +0000 Jaime 1847760@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#2, #4 are perfection. Are they the same suit? Your hair is excellent also. And the coat in #5. And your shoes...ok I'll stop. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-cos#post-1847638 Sat, 23 Sep 2017 17:58:04 +0000 skylurker 1847638@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks all for your comments. I'm glad the new sweater works.</p> <p>AndiB : I find oxfords super comfy for my narrow feet. Beware they turn outfits into mannish territory, though, you have to be at peace with that.</p> <p>Anchie : I think it's a good strategy if<br /> 1-you like simplicity, clean lines<br /> 2-you don't mind the routine (I'm the kind of person who eats the same thing every day, I don't mind wearing the same suits every week, with just a change of tops)<br /> 3-you don't mind the menswear/tomboy vibe. You have a waist, so I would look towards Tanya's sheaths and skirts suits rather than my mannish suits, for inspiration.</p> <p>Tanya : I'm glad there's another suit wearer (and a very stylish one) to help me out on the forum :)</p> <p>UmmLila, Angie : oh, thank you very much. I often have doubts about hair, beauty stuff is not my forte :)</p> <p>Angie : waving back at you, I do like high collars - I can't rock turtlenecks as you do though.</p> <p>Mntsofthemoon, Karen : thank you, I love that burnished gold colour too, not easy to find though </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-cos#post-1847637 Sat, 23 Sep 2017 17:53:02 +0000 karen13 1847637@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow - so clean and stylish! You are a suit wearer to perfection. I love them all, but the color combo and oxfords in #3 is just wow. And that topper - your pic makes me want one, even though I am completely unsuited for it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-cos#post-1847527 Sat, 23 Sep 2017 12:07:40 +0000 Tanya 1847527@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Isabelle, you look amazing in suits!&nbsp; All the four of them look great, as does the overcoat.&nbsp; The choice of tops, shoes, etc. to go with the suits is perfect and really suits your style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-cos#post-1847525 Sat, 23 Sep 2017 12:01:41 +0000 Carla 1847525@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I want to be you when I grow up, skylurker! #5 and #6 *sigh* so fab.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-cos#post-1847519 Sat, 23 Sep 2017 11:47:21 +0000 anchie 1847519@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This seems like a very good strategy, to have a suit for every day of the week. It simplifies the things, isn't it? Guys do it all the time. And you look great in them. I am thinking now if I should do something similar. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-cos#post-1847517 Sat, 23 Sep 2017 11:41:11 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1847517@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love suits -- and I'm really liking how your hair looks, especially in the first photo. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-cos#post-1847450 Sat, 23 Sep 2017 03:03:27 +0000 Anonymous 1847450@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fabulous in pants suits! I also love the top in #6 and the coat in #5 </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/suits-cos#post-1847445 Sat, 23 Sep 2017 02:38:51 +0000 Greyscale 1847445@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok, now I have to start wearing suits. #2 is sublime. </p>
