LeDonna, the scarf is from Nordstrom.com and is bigger than I prefer for my short neck. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/throwing-out-a-challenge#post-1685959 Mon, 27 Jun 2016 14:48:05 +0000 kimlee 1685959@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a fun challenge! I may have to join in - we have several events over the course of the 4th of July weekend - including a wedding, a cookout and our 2nd daughter's 2nd birthday! &nbsp;I wonder if I can create look that will meet for all occasions while having a patriotic nod. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/throwing-out-a-challenge#post-1685929 Mon, 27 Jun 2016 14:09:01 +0000 Ginger 1685929@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've already been planning outfits for Sunday the 3rd and for the 4th!

I combine them all for patriotic holidays like July 4th and Memorial Day.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/throwing-out-a-challenge#post-1681339 Sun, 19 Jun 2016 10:26:23 +0000 Chris987 1681339@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lucy - my sympathies on having ugly national colors, not much you can do about it I suppose. &nbsp;I personally think the US National Anthem is a pretty awful song, there are&nbsp;much better ones that could have been chosen.&nbsp; Unfortunately once national colors, flags, songs, etc are set there seems to be absolutely no way to change them, so we go along as proudly as we can </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/throwing-out-a-challenge#post-1681337 Sun, 19 Jun 2016 09:57:14 +0000 Ledonna N. 1681337@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Donna f where did you get that scarf?

It's why we have the ugliest fashions at the Olympics too! So many talented designers here, but it's hard to make that look good.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/throwing-out-a-challenge#post-1681210 Sat, 18 Jun 2016 23:47:04 +0000 MTBGirl 1681210@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd love to join but I'm not sure I have any red items any more either. More to the tomato-red/coral end of the spectrum with lots of white and blue. Would that count?</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/throwing-out-a-challenge#post-1681208 Sat, 18 Jun 2016 23:40:43 +0000 DonnaF 1681208@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sure, why not?&nbsp; Especially since I bought the scarf below.&nbsp; Some outfits might be What I'd Like to Wear since I'll still be wearing that darn boot. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/throwing-out-a-challenge#post-1681023 Sat, 18 Jun 2016 13:08:17 +0000 El Cee 1681023@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fun challenge!
