Why avoid it? Actually the earth tones in the first one also look great on you! Your hair is beautiful! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-week-3#post-2095072 Sun, 26 Jan 2020 00:24:46 +0000 rachylou 2095072@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your olives are great! I think the shoulder on the sweater in 1 is a little wide. Calls for something frilly to offset that... a scarf, dainty shoes... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-week-3#post-2095056 Sat, 25 Jan 2020 21:31:37 +0000 Anonymous 2095056@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@nemosmom Tucking girl, if you are comfortable with that will eliminate any snagging Belts go great with tees too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-week-3#post-2095055 Sat, 25 Jan 2020 21:31:04 +0000 kellygirl 2095055@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are so lovely!! I actually really love the vibe of one. It's like refined work wear. Totally fab in my opinion. The second outfit is just polished casual perfection. Fit and palette are perfect!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-week-3#post-2095038 Sat, 25 Jan 2020 19:48:05 +0000 nemosmom 2095038@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, <b>Sarah</b>! One more week to go!

I agree it has great work-from-home potential.</p> <p>Re: outfit #1, I think a bit more value contrast could help add structure to an outfit with a slightly baggy silhouette. Maybe light/mid-wash jeans instead of the burgundy pants?</p> <p>Oh and solidarity on the crazy-work-week-joggers-and-slippers phase. I'm right there with you. Just gotta push through till Thursday... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-week-3#post-2095016 Sat, 25 Jan 2020 17:40:30 +0000 nemosmom 2095016@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div><b>slimcat</b> and <b>Cardiffgirl </b>- thank you!

The snowflake was so unusual - curls on one side, feathers on the other. Very cool.</div><div><br /></div><div>Thanks, <b>Jess! </b>I have belts, but just not into them these days.

Like seeing outfits with strappy high-heeled sandals, joggers, and a thick wool coat thrown over the shoulders as a cape - it LOOKS amazing, but it's SO impractical....<br /></div><div><br /></div><div><b>LaPed</b> - those are great ideas. The burnt orange looked better with the boot in the closet... the hem is too low and cuts me in half. I'll play with it.<br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-week-3#post-2095013 Sat, 25 Jan 2020 17:30:26 +0000 Cardiff girl 2095013@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Olive suits you so don t fight it.love the snakeskin boots as well.Groovy snow flake. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-week-3#post-2095011 Sat, 25 Jan 2020 17:26:08 +0000 Angie 2095011@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YOU HAVE BEAUTIFUL HAIR. WOW :)</p> <p>I can't look at anything but #2. KILLER.</p> <p>Why can't you work at home like that! Perfect unless you have to traipse in the snow....</p> <p>(Palette in #1 is gorgeous on you, and very pretty snowflake).&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-week-3#post-2095010 Sat, 25 Jan 2020 17:24:20 +0000 slim cat 2095010@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Olive is your color - go with it! Love your colors in #1, oversized sweater can be reworked like @La Pedestrienne and others were saying ( just a pendent can add visual interest ). <br />You look great in #2 - love your smile! Snowflake is a beauty. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-week-3#post-2095003 Sat, 25 Jan 2020 17:04:23 +0000 LaPed 2095003@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The olive sweater, flares and snakeskin boots are all so fab on you!! Wow! </p> <p>I love the autumn colours in #1; maybe lose or tuck in the t-shirt underneath (do you have another burnt orange accent you could add? Scarf, jewelry, etc?), cuff the pants, and scrunch up the sweater sleeves a bit. There are probably lots of ways to add a bit of structure but those are the ones that jump out to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-week-3#post-2095000 Sat, 25 Jan 2020 16:51:18 +0000 Carla 2095000@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The palette in #1 is lovely, but the fit of the top is a size or two too large (boyfriend sweater fit ) so that might be what makes you feel ‘sloppy’. &nbsp;The intentional oversized garment looks great in posed photographs where it collapses against the model’s body or is reigned in by a tucked elbow or carefully posed arm clutching a fab bag, but seems to loose something in translation to RL. &nbsp; Of course olive loves you! &nbsp;‘Milk It’ as Angie says. &nbsp;<div><br /></div><div>I love looking at beautiful things, so thank you for sharing the snow flake.<br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-week-3#post-2094999 Sat, 25 Jan 2020 16:45:07 +0000 Helena 2094999@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can see why you have a hard time staying away from olive - it is absolutely the perfect neutral for you! I see no silent bob haha - but I hear you on the drapier vibe; when it's not your style, it feels 'off'.&nbsp; What a cool snowflake, although it makes me think it must be pretty cold!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-week-3#post-2094994 Sat, 25 Jan 2020 16:32:20 +0000 Anonymous 2094994@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The first outfit does look comfy and relaxed, is there a reason you chose to wear the orange shirt under, I think it might look better without that sticking out the rest of the outfit looks good.</p> <p>Second outfit is a nice casual look, do you have a nice leather belt to go with those snakeskin boots in black,white, or brown? Olive color suits you and matches your hair. Its a very Irish look and I don’t know if you are but it works!</p> <p>Pretty snowflake </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-week-3#post-2094993 Sat, 25 Jan 2020 16:31:22 +0000 kkards 2094993@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOL...if you have a color that works for you, it works for you, and you should wear it when ever and where ever you can!<br />love #2 so much! and the snow flake is beautiful. we seem to be having rain, rain, rain and no snow </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-week-3#post-2094991 Sat, 25 Jan 2020 16:24:31 +0000 nemosmom 2094991@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This week I tried a week of no olive. I made it to Wednesday It snowed most of the week, and was also a crazy work week, so I spent three days in joggers, a hoodie, and slippers. I did not photo those... </p> <p>With the exception of intentionally loungey at-home outfits, I am feeling that outfits I put together lean either *really* sloppy or *way* too buttoned-up/stuffy. I need to figure out how to achieve better balance here.</p> <p>Two photos for the week: sloppy Silent Bob (I like the palette, but not the slouchy 90s/Mall Rats feel). Happy olive sweater with snake boots. Kind of a cheat, given I bought the boots in November. </p> <p>Bonus photo of a cool snowflake that formed on my office window. </p>
