But I'm not entirely sure what I want to wear, yet. </p> <p>Opera capsule is easy, dress with sleeves, heels, BAM! done.</p> <p>Commuting I got mostly sorted.</p> <p>It's the inbetween stuff that I'm struggling with right now.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-shopping#post-1030333 Sun, 15 Sep 2013 20:33:04 +0000 Jenava 1030333@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I love the skirt! &nbsp;I'm such a sucker for this color, as well. &nbsp;Will your work schedule settle down a little more this winter? &nbsp;I could see this with black tights and booties...FAB!</p> <p>The whole days sounds fantastic! &nbsp;So glad you had fun, and your new items sound great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-shopping#post-1030284 Sun, 15 Sep 2013 19:31:42 +0000 MsMary 1030284@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my gosh!&nbsp; That skirt is gorgeous!&nbsp; If I had the money I would totally buy it and wear it to work!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-shopping#post-1030108 Sun, 15 Sep 2013 14:52:04 +0000 Isabel 1030108@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It is so wonderful to hear you describe your day as "glorious" :-)</p> <p>THe skirt is amazing. &nbsp;Would it be longer on you ? &nbsp;They always seem so short on those really, long legged models. &nbsp;If it falls lower on you, then yes if you can find the time to wear it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-shopping#post-1030107 Sun, 15 Sep 2013 14:51:07 +0000 Vildy 1030107@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jayne, thanks for this: " It is amazing how few pieces are needed to make it almost impossible to<br /> wear them all in one season. I say take a look at what you really have<br /> versus really want to wear and when the possibilities match free time<br /> and see if it fits. This has helped me limit my jacket obsession. I<br /> really cannot fit another blazer in without losing the possibility to<br /> wear something else.<br /> "</p> <p>I keep having to relearn this over and over.&nbsp; Am putting it on a note on my desktop.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-shopping#post-1030089 Sun, 15 Sep 2013 14:29:43 +0000 donnat 1030089@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous skirt, love the color </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-shopping#post-1030041 Sun, 15 Sep 2013 12:21:43 +0000 Suz 1030041@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh - I remember you linked to this skirt earlier, or one in this colour. It's gorgeous. I'm sure it will look great on you and it might turn out to be more wearable than you think.&nbsp;</p> <p>Loved your other purchases and am glad you had some fun time with Amy! It's good for the soul.&nbsp;</p> <p>The enforced shopping ban has probably also been good for your style. Helps you refine where you really want to go next.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-shopping#post-1029991 Sun, 15 Sep 2013 08:27:04 +0000 jayne 1029991@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the skirt and its length...you go girl&nbsp; But I think there is some wisdom in thinking if you have time to wear it with all the other great options already in your closet.&nbsp; It is amazing how few pieces are needed to make it almost impossible to wear them all in one season.&nbsp; I say take a look at what you really have versus really want to wear and when the possibilities match free time and see if it fits.&nbsp; This has helped me limit my jacket obsession.&nbsp; I really cannot fit another blazer in without losing the possibility to wear something else. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-shopping#post-1029986 Sun, 15 Sep 2013 08:17:23 +0000 Lyn D. 1029986@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can see you wearing this, and I am guessing that the model is taller, so length probably won't be an issue? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-shopping#post-1029955 Sun, 15 Sep 2013 05:38:12 +0000 Wendi1984 1029955@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The skirt color is gorgeous! But it is very short. Do you wear skirts that short regularly? To me, it seems impractically short. But your lifestyle may be different than mine. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-shopping#post-1029946 Sun, 15 Sep 2013 05:16:25 +0000 rachylou 1029946@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't suppose you could commute to work in the skirt? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-shopping#post-1029916 Sun, 15 Sep 2013 04:05:40 +0000 Marley 1029916@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very cute skirt!&nbsp; My only question about it is the length.&nbsp; It looks really short! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-shopping#post-1029915 Sun, 15 Sep 2013 04:01:42 +0000 annagybe 1029915@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I spent a glorious afternoon with Amy having lunch and wine at a great French bistro then some shopping.<br />We stopped at Barneys to return the calf hair pumps, but I did order a 1/2 size up. I think they will upgrade my winter opera capsule.<br />We went to Rack, wear I found that MSGM striped dress. I also bought a coat that was camo with pleather sleeves and lined in a quilted fabric. I think it'll be a great upgrade to my fall commuting look.<br />I trolled all the shoes of the Rack. I was surprising practical about what I looked at. I think, and I can't believe I'm saying this, but except for the opera and equivalent dressy events I'm over heels. This is a major shift for me.<br />My only questionable purchase was at All Saints. I adore the bottle green&nbsp;color. Amy said it looked good on me. But now I'm wondering if I have enough free time to wear it&nbsp;to make it worthwhile.<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.us.allsaints.com/women/skirts/allsaints-flore-leather-skirt/?colour=197&amp;category=502">http://www.us.allsaints.com/wo.....tegory=502</a></p> <p>Also I wasn't particularly impressed with the current J Crew offerings. Also I couldn't find any Cameron's at the True Religion store.</p>
