I think the pointy shoes make them both current. So much fun shopping the wardrobe! And cheap:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-orphans-get-some-wear#post-1254292 Sat, 17 May 2014 20:03:54 +0000 Anonymous 1254292@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look so current and fresh in both outfits. I love the pant width and the pointy toes peeking out in #1. The design on your top in #2 is lovely, a kind of lace overlay? You look great in the slim legs and what fab shoes!</p> <p></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-orphans-get-some-wear#post-1254070 Sat, 17 May 2014 15:16:08 +0000 dustt 1254070@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>kkards those are some really nice orphans!! pants awesome - it's especially nice to have a pair of pants to wear when it's scorching!! and the blazer in that longer length is a good look on you. I'd like to see another pic of that blouse - I'm really intrigued by it and I agree that it has some serious possibilities!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-orphans-get-some-wear#post-1254064 Sat, 17 May 2014 15:03:28 +0000 Angie 1254064@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good job, KK. You look splendid in both outfits. The flares are fab with the pointy shoes</p> <p>I find that items <i>can</i> fall out of favour, especially if I wore them to death the season before. But I still keep them if I love them. That's okay. Often, they fall back into favour. I don't consider those items orphans.&nbsp;</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-orphans-get-some-wear#post-1254057 Sat, 17 May 2014 15:00:51 +0000 kkards 1254057@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>gracie, i think the reason i wasn't wearing the white blazer as much as in the past was/is the shape. it felt longer than what i was looking for. in fact, i bought a shorter BR blazer that i think will become my go to white blazer this summer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-orphans-get-some-wear#post-1254048 Sat, 17 May 2014 14:52:25 +0000 Gracie 1254048@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both looks are fab, I'm glad you're wearing your orphans. The top in 3 is very flattering, maybe now it well get into regular rotation. BTY I love both your pointy toe shoes and you look fantastic in skinnies, no wonder you wear them often.</p> <p>I have several orphans that I need to play with. One is a beautiful white, cotton Zara blazer and I'm wondering if it's too " bright" for me... I'm curious why you were not reaching for your white blazer last year, might give me some clue on mine. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-orphans-get-some-wear#post-1254012 Sat, 17 May 2014 14:02:13 +0000 kkards 1254012@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i wasn't deliberately trying, but for some reason, I've been reaching for some of my closet orphans. i think part of it is trying to bring silhouettes other than straight/skinny pants back into my look. part of it is just trying to mix up my uniform.<br />#1/2 --when i bought these pants 4 years ago, i wore them a lot. but then last year i don't think i wore them at all, but i wasn't ready to let them go. then on the 1st hot day we had this year (these pants are a linen blend), they were my 1st choice. the white knit blazer was also a past workhorse that last summer had moved to occasional wear. not sure it will be more than that this year, but it definitely still has a place.<br />#3 --the pants and blazer are workhorses. but the shirt is one that i had only wear once. not sure why i didn't wear this more often, but i loved this look, and i can see this shirt getting a lot of wear this summer.</p> <p>anyone else finding orphans getting more wear this year?&nbsp;</p> <p>as always, thanks for looking, all comments welcome.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p>
