Each thing fits in-and fits you, and coloring! Being also an ash blonde I&nbsp; love a medium taupe (like your tee here) which suits me-but along the years was very hard to find and I&nbsp; had to implement to my office wear (as I mainly dress for work)-and my not so pristine neck of woods which so blended together in one was harder than&nbsp; you'd think. 15yrs ago I had a taupe&nbsp; 3 pieces, midi skirt+straight pants designer suit from Taifun by Gerry Webber which was a very special, fabric- never met before and neither ever again.<br />It was sort of linen with invisible metallic fibres in the wave not only for an added subtle surface metallic shine, but for added crisp on holding&nbsp; some&nbsp; subtle vertical wrinkles in the fabric (was not supposed to be ironed!). Remember the waist&nbsp; of my short tailored jacket could be tucked&nbsp; even more closer to my body and out on hips and the lapels could hold their shape any possible arangement...that was a trouly fab suit-but too dressy all in one. Instead wore the jacket to the ground with other things. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taupe-wiw/page/2#post-2237885 Thu, 11 Nov 2021 09:13:28 +0000 Jenni NZ 2237885@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another here who was really taken with the bun! Love it. Great outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taupe-wiw#post-2237878 Thu, 11 Nov 2021 08:13:18 +0000 The Cat 2237878@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you for the tip, Synne. I will look for them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taupe-wiw#post-2237876 Thu, 11 Nov 2021 08:08:19 +0000 Synne 2237876@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks sweethearts!<br /> Yes, I felt the 'do was a nod to the 60's, but it could easily also just be "washing lady" :-D</p> <p>How cool that you like the rain jacket. I am always on the lookout for fun and interesting rainproof outerwear. This is from a local consignment shop. The golden rule for me is that the shell fabric should be nylon, not polyester. Much more weather proof.</p> <p>The cat: I just recently noticed these. They can be found in the larger grocery stores, by the detergents and cleaning products. White sponges. They are truly magic!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taupe-wiw#post-2237868 Thu, 11 Nov 2021 06:36:20 +0000 Sally 2237868@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice combination of colours.&nbsp; The coat is lovely and mixes well with the rest of the colours. You look extremely well styled for your walk.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taupe-wiw#post-2237865 Thu, 11 Nov 2021 06:24:01 +0000 Suz 2237865@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great outfit for rainy weather! You look fantastic! I love the white boots with the white detail in the raincoat. Fresh looking. I'm also a huge fan of taupe. I don't wear it as much any more now that my hair is grey but when I had dark blonde hair it was one of my main neutrals. I still wear it now, just not as often.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taupe-wiw#post-2237850 Thu, 11 Nov 2021 02:40:46 +0000 Jaime 2237850@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful photo and outfit!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taupe-wiw#post-2237848 Thu, 11 Nov 2021 02:38:37 +0000 kellygirl 2237848@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Lisap said! Cool bun and gorgeous outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taupe-wiw#post-2237831 Thu, 11 Nov 2021 00:40:58 +0000 Zaeobi 2237831@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maybe it's the hand placement &amp; the earrings, but the top bun feels very Audrey Hepburn. Funny you say that your hair feels thin, because it looks thick &amp; luscious here! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taupe-wiw#post-2237829 Thu, 11 Nov 2021 00:00:58 +0000 Sloper 2237829@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your hair up that way!&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>That jacket is something special - at first I thought it was polka dots, but it looks like stars(?).&nbsp; Anyway - a great combination from you as always! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taupe-wiw#post-2237826 Wed, 10 Nov 2021 23:25:48 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2237826@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The Cat, in case it’s any help, in German it’s Schmutzradierer. Mr Proper is one brand that sells them here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taupe-wiw#post-2237825 Wed, 10 Nov 2021 23:22:37 +0000 The Cat 2237825@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love your taupe &amp; white rain jacket. Your hairdo has cute 1960s vibes. :-)</p> <p>What are "magic eraser sponges" called in Scandinavia? And where did you purchase them? I am all ears. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taupe-wiw#post-2237752 Wed, 10 Nov 2021 19:34:58 +0000 RobinF 2237752@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are cute, love the rain jacket! I have often thought I'd like a "like" button but then I would probably be more tempted to hit that instead of actually comment. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taupe-wiw#post-2237747 Wed, 10 Nov 2021 19:28:48 +0000 Jonesy 2237747@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a fabulous look! I love the coat and the boots, especially, and agreeing with others that your hair look great like that :). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taupe-wiw#post-2237722 Wed, 10 Nov 2021 18:21:09 +0000 Katerina 2237722@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Super cute and fun look!

I love "perfectly casual".</p> <p>Taupe is my favourite colour to wear. And metallic grey (heh, guess that would be silver... ) I knew this intuitively long before I learned that I in fact AM cold coloured (?). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taupe-wiw#post-2237696 Wed, 10 Nov 2021 17:30:56 +0000 rachylou 2237696@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is great. The deeper shade adds a lot! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taupe-wiw#post-2237680 Wed, 10 Nov 2021 16:56:06 +0000 Anonymous 2237680@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You’re the cutest ever , which I know sounds obnoxious coming from one adult woman to another - but the jacket and the hair and the boots and ……it’s all so perfectly casual . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taupe-wiw#post-2237678 Wed, 10 Nov 2021 16:46:04 +0000 slim cat 2237678@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So pretty! You wear that color so well! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taupe-wiw#post-2237624 Wed, 10 Nov 2021 13:38:46 +0000 Irina 2237624@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love your outfit, especially the rain coat! You look so good in taupe! I’m in love with this color and it wasn’t on my radar for so long, don’t know why. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taupe-wiw#post-2237623 Wed, 10 Nov 2021 13:26:21 +0000 CarolS 2237623@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the polka dot jacket and the repetition of white in the boots, jacket, and I think also earrings (?). Another fan of the high bun, too. </p> <p>Thanks for sharing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taupe-wiw#post-2237622 Wed, 10 Nov 2021 13:11:55 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2237622@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>2&gt;0 </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taupe-wiw#post-2237621 Wed, 10 Nov 2021 12:57:15 +0000 Synne 2237621@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Janet, too funny! I never know what to do with my hair; it is thin, uncooperative, uninspiring. Hence why I love hats... This style is one of my very small repertoire that looks like I tried, that looks done. Lol!</p> <p>ST, thank you! I will be chiming in with more 2 word sentences from now on too! Hehe.</p> <p>Bijou, merci sweetheart! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taupe-wiw#post-2237618 Wed, 10 Nov 2021 12:52:49 +0000 Bijou 2237618@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this outfit and it is great to see you post. Like Janet, I am envious of how the high bun hairstyle looks so good on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taupe-wiw#post-2237604 Wed, 10 Nov 2021 12:25:48 +0000 Anonymous 2237604@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Taupe is great on you- and you match your surroundings!<br /> Guilty of the 2 word comments </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taupe-wiw#post-2237603 Wed, 10 Nov 2021 12:22:39 +0000 Janet 2237603@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You do tonal/monochrome so well! And rainwear too. I also think you are the one in a hundred women on which the high bun hairstyle actually looks really good! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taupe-wiw#post-2237600 Wed, 10 Nov 2021 12:19:27 +0000 Synne 2237600@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you! Yes, those two words are sufficient to be those little "I got you, fam" comments so true. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taupe-wiw#post-2237594 Wed, 10 Nov 2021 11:50:00 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2237594@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think of the little 2-word comments as the equivalent of “likes”. They don’t say much, but do let you know someone looked &amp; responded favorably to something or other. </p> <p>Your ability to make great looks out of “found objects”—everyday perfunctory items—continues to be great. And I love the site for this little photo shoot. You blend in, but only in a very good way </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taupe-wiw#post-2237592 Wed, 10 Nov 2021 11:37:37 +0000 Synne 2237592@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, so true. Don't add any new buttons!</p> <p>The wellies are several years old and clean up easily with magic eraser sponges (Angie tip). But I'm out of them!! Need to get a hold of more. Those are the best. </p>
