I struggled with making it work in my weather. I gave up and passed it on. Glad that velvet tees have good homes in other locations Love your Anthro duster ❤️ You rock statement pieces! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/w-i%e2%80%99ve-been-w#post-2252458 Sat, 19 Feb 2022 17:47:32 +0000 Jonesy 2252458@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful! Bring on the patterned dusters, I say! These black and statement looks really suit you and your fabulous hair (I love your specs too, from what I can see). Northern light is no one's friend this time of year--I have been meaning to take some WIWs but the light is just too pale--so I admire your posting and sharing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/w-i%e2%80%99ve-been-w#post-2252435 Sat, 19 Feb 2022 15:42:27 +0000 LaPed 2252435@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the matchy mug in #4. And the bold b/w florals in 6 and 7 are gorgeous. I struggle with north-facing windows and grey light too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/w-i%e2%80%99ve-been-w#post-2252434 Sat, 19 Feb 2022 15:39:32 +0000 missvee 2252434@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have really nailed your style by buying &nbsp;good, versatile pieces and remixing them in interesting ways. &nbsp;These are all great looks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/w-i%e2%80%99ve-been-w#post-2252432 Sat, 19 Feb 2022 15:33:47 +0000 Nadya 2252432@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The way you remix is inspirational! I love that you wear velvet just because. I have a pair of velvet shoes I’ll wear with jeans on dry spring or autumn because &nbsp;they’re &nbsp;cute and I love them. And that dress in 6 is amazeballs.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/w-i%e2%80%99ve-been-w#post-2252429 Sat, 19 Feb 2022 15:28:49 +0000 kkards 2252429@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bummer on the EF pants in #4, love the color and they seem so you. the dark florals are fab, and I love the bedspread outfit. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/w-i%e2%80%99ve-been-w#post-2252423 Sat, 19 Feb 2022 15:17:02 +0000 Carla 2252423@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry to learn that the EF wide legs are being retired (but understand the reasons). &nbsp;That colour perfectly picks up the highlights in your hair. &nbsp;Really liking the floral dresses and long duster vests. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/w-i%e2%80%99ve-been-w#post-2252404 Sat, 19 Feb 2022 11:17:53 +0000 Minaminu 2252404@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>fantastic! cohesive, stylish, varied and cosy!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/w-i%e2%80%99ve-been-w#post-2252403 Sat, 19 Feb 2022 11:12:11 +0000 Brooklyn 2252403@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Haha! I also live in a place where velvet t-shirts make sense. Along with sleeveless turtlenecks. You look wonderful. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/w-i%e2%80%99ve-been-w#post-2252402 Sat, 19 Feb 2022 10:26:05 +0000 Star (Lise) 2252402@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your style is always inspirational for me.&nbsp; The final outfit is awesome. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/w-i%e2%80%99ve-been-w#post-2252390 Sat, 19 Feb 2022 09:01:23 +0000 Bijou 2252390@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>California Dreaming!</p> <p>I love these outfits and how you look in them, just gorgeous. If these photos are bad quality, I can only imagine how fabulous they are in real life. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/w-i%e2%80%99ve-been-w#post-2252384 Sat, 19 Feb 2022 06:55:33 +0000 Sloper 2252384@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>2, 4, and 8 are my favorites.</p> <p>Hope you didn’t get caught in that thunderstorm we just had (#7). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/w-i%e2%80%99ve-been-w#post-2252380 Sat, 19 Feb 2022 05:12:20 +0000 Zaeobi 2252380@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your 60s rocker inspiration is really coming through with this cohesive collection of rich fabrics. </p> <p>Love how the hair plays well with the textures too - long wavy hair twins </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/w-i%e2%80%99ve-been-w#post-2252377 Sat, 19 Feb 2022 04:57:37 +0000 Evie 2252377@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just love how you restyle the same items (such as the velvet tee) and make them look like a completely new and different piece in each created outfit. You inspire me to be more creative and play around with my wardrobe items more intentionally. My favourites here are probably #3, 4, and 8. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/w-i%e2%80%99ve-been-w#post-2252374 Sat, 19 Feb 2022 04:48:34 +0000 Anonymous 2252374@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WOW! &nbsp;You look amazing in each of these outfits. They all look like they would work for your life. &nbsp;I’m happy that you found that EF black silk button down. &nbsp;Mine is not EF, but I will snap it up if one appears. &nbsp;I did find an EF warm pink jacket for $5 that I am wearing today inspired by Angie’s blog spring looks.<br />What Helena and Angie said. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/w-i%e2%80%99ve-been-w#post-2252373 Sat, 19 Feb 2022 04:24:58 +0000 Jenn 2252373@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks,&nbsp;<b>Helena!&nbsp;</b>I aspire to that.</p> <b><br /> </b> <p><b></b><b>Angie</b> #4 is a favorite for me. I have really had my ups and downs with those Eileen Fisher widelegs but, in the end, I'm going to miss them.&nbsp;<br /><b><br /></b><b>rachylou</b>, isn't it crazy how close that match is? Totally different companies and one is woven while the other is knit. The texture difference shows better in real life. &nbsp;<br /><b><br /></b>And yes, gotta have clothes to do normal life stuff in.<br /><b><br /></b><b>Laurie,&nbsp;</b>I'm not saying I choose my coffee cup based on my outfit, but I'm also not saying I don't.</p> <p><b>Jenna,&nbsp;</b>limiting my colors makes mixing and matching a lot easier!</p> <p><b>pirouette,&nbsp;</b>thank you! I've been using Curly Girl techniques and it makes a difference!</p> <p><b>Sally,&nbsp;</b>I feel like black and denim is my home base, if that makes sense. It's a FFBO, but also a place where I feel really comfortable and like myself. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/w-i%e2%80%99ve-been-w#post-2252370 Sat, 19 Feb 2022 03:30:41 +0000 Sally 2252370@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I find your wardrobe and styling an inspiration as I love black essentials and denim and aspire to have such a well-planned wardrobe.&nbsp; Love all of the outfits but the denim and black are my favourite.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/w-i%e2%80%99ve-been-w#post-2252349 Fri, 18 Feb 2022 22:05:11 +0000 pirouette 2252349@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Outfits are lovely but your beautiful hair steals the show it’s amazing.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/w-i%e2%80%99ve-been-w#post-2252345 Fri, 18 Feb 2022 21:41:06 +0000 Anonymous 2252345@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow. Great recycling of pieces. 3, 4 &amp; 8 are stellar. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/w-i%e2%80%99ve-been-w#post-2252344 Fri, 18 Feb 2022 21:37:02 +0000 Laurie 2252344@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good to see you, Jenn. I really like 4 and 7 a whole lot. Extra credit for matching the coffee cup! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/w-i%e2%80%99ve-been-w#post-2252343 Fri, 18 Feb 2022 21:26:51 +0000 rachylou 2252343@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I feel that I could really live my life in these outfits. And I’m very intrigued by the ‘matching’ dress and duster vest - what finds! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/w-i%e2%80%99ve-been-w#post-2252340 Fri, 18 Feb 2022 21:17:23 +0000 Angie 2252340@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your hair is SOOO AWESOME! And your outfits very beautifully <b>“Jenn”</b>! </p> <p>#3 and 4 are my KILLER faves </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/w-i%e2%80%99ve-been-w#post-2252337 Fri, 18 Feb 2022 20:48:15 +0000 Helena 2252337@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great collection Jenn ... cohesive, modern, casual-ish, give the right amount of edge. You look awesome. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/w-i%e2%80%99ve-been-w#post-2252335 Fri, 18 Feb 2022 20:44:01 +0000 Jenn 2252335@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Some WIWs from so far in 2022. Apologies for the varying photo quality. My balcony faces north and the light is just awful. Sometimes I try to fix it and sometimes I just accept looking like a blue person. </p> <p>Anyway,&nbsp;I think these are pretty good examples of my recent balance between a) wearing very minimalist outfits with a lot of black and b) not being scared of big statements on occasion. Lots of repeats here as I wear my essentials over and over.</p> <p>#1 Skinny jeans (these have a hole in the thigh after 62 wears and will be replaced shortly with straight legs), suede booties, and velvet tee. &nbsp;I live in a place where short sleeve velvet makes sense and I love it!</p> <p>#2 Eileen Fisher silk button-down found secondhand to replace the one that was worn to shreds. Warp&amp;Weft jeans.It's been warm and I often just go barefoot at home.</p> <p>#3 Affectionately thought of as my "bedspread" outfit. Elizabeth Suzann dress and Anthropologie duster.</p> <p>#4 Same EF button-down and EF&nbsp;wide legs with Cariuma sneakers. Sadly, I also decided to retire these pants after 110 wears because of a hole and stretched-out knees. Sometimes, you match your coffee cup to your outfit.</p> <p>#5 Velvet tee again, layered over slip dress</p> <p>#6 Floral dress, with (different) floral duster vest.</p> <p>#7 Vest from #6 over jeans from #1 and EF button-down from #2/4.</p> <p>#8 Velvet tee AGAIN, with linen/wool pants, bandana, and cashmere duster. A tiny foray into dark academia.&nbsp;</p>
