I love the versatility of your capsule and the variety of colors. You are excellent at remixing them and for trying different color combinations. I really liked the olive top on you. The Burgundy necklace was also fantastic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-3-30x30-challenge/page/3#post-1881300 Sun, 21 Jan 2018 18:18:01 +0000 Anonymous 1881300@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lynn, I kept adding to this thread all week. Today I start a new one for week 4 of the challenge, which gets even more challenging as we get nearer the end of the month. I am finding that what I've NOT added to my 30 is just as telling as what I have worn.<br /> I hope that your knee is healing well. Be sure to do the PT faithfully when you get to that point. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-3-30x30-challenge/page/3#post-1881286 Sun, 21 Jan 2018 17:20:06 +0000 Lynn 1881286@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy- I thought I have commented earlier on your thread but apparently not :(. &nbsp;You have a fabulous wardrobe and a great sense of style. I have enjoyed seeing all of your outfits. I particularly liked day 17. The scarfs are just beautiful.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-3-30x30-challenge/page/3#post-1881272 Sun, 21 Jan 2018 16:53:26 +0000 Anonymous 1881272@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have worn those winter hiking boots only 3-4 times this season so far, sometimes for warmth because I can wear thick wool socks with them. This snow should help the drought a little. The viability is such that we cannot see the mountains today but they have been dry most of the winter. Everyone here is hoping for lots of March snow.<br /> View of deck pillar below. It looks like it has another inch on it now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-3-30x30-challenge/page/3#post-1881267 Sun, 21 Jan 2018 16:29:05 +0000 JAileen 1881267@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy, I love your red vest outfit. Have you been wearing your ice grip boots much? We haven’t had any snow to speak of. I wore my winter hiking boots yesterday because it was so chilly. But it’s been very dry, unfortunately. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-3-30x30-challenge/page/3#post-1881250 Sun, 21 Jan 2018 15:35:01 +0000 Anonymous 1881250@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, Debbie and Katerina, for your ideas. Since I do not have a scarf in yellow, a did shop my closet and found a long necklace with aqua and a taupe that looked olive with this outfit. I was still wearing the aqua loafers so it was not bad and made me want to experiment with olive and aqua/turquoise. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-3-30x30-challenge/page/2#post-1881201 Sun, 21 Jan 2018 09:42:51 +0000 Katerina 1881201@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The olive jeans and sweater look excellent together and they fit you perfectly. Having seen your other outfits and your style, I agree that I something might be “missing”. Some yellow accent would be perfect - maybe a scarf or a necklace? A long or chunky necklace might also be nice to this outfit. I think that red would look very good with olive colours too - perhaps a brighter tone of red? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-3-30x30-challenge/page/2#post-1881181 Sun, 21 Jan 2018 05:03:12 +0000 Debbie 1881181@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love everything. I agree that the olive top needs a longer necklace. You have excellent style and I can’t wait to copy some of these. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-3-30x30-challenge/page/2#post-1881171 Sun, 21 Jan 2018 04:28:32 +0000 Anonymous 1881171@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, those are excellent ideas, Sarah. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-3-30x30-challenge/page/2#post-1881116 Sat, 20 Jan 2018 23:50:11 +0000 SarahD8 1881116@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the light olive and dark olive combination very much! Yellow sounds like a great idea. Maybe a long pendant necklace with a yellow stone? The cross seems a bit small but would be great as part of a layered necklace look. I think that solid tunic sweaters often need a necklace with some oomph. Or a scarf? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-3-30x30-challenge/page/2#post-1881095 Sat, 20 Jan 2018 22:45:55 +0000 Anonymous 1881095@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Day 20: Saturday casual. Dark olive jeans ( look black in photo), light olive EF merino wool sweater. I am wearing aqua loafers to decide if they are keepers or not. That will be a separate K/R post. Please over look the unruly hair which was washed but not styled.<br /> I am liking the olive sweater more than I thought I would and I want to add some yellow (besides the yellow underwear I am wearing today). I feel comfortable but feel that this outfit needs something. Suggestions? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-3-30x30-challenge/page/2#post-1880768 Sat, 20 Jan 2018 02:24:59 +0000 Windchime 1880768@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Day 18--What a stylish and fun grandma you are! (even your underwear).<br /> I'm very impressed with the variety of outfits and silhouettes you have created with 30 pieces. </p> <p>Also, thanks for the smile when picturing your grandson attempting to milk the dog! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-3-30x30-challenge/page/2#post-1880765 Sat, 20 Jan 2018 02:04:24 +0000 Anonymous 1880765@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Katerina, I have one other piece that my niece made and hope for one of her beaded creations. She makes things mostly for herself. I am happy that you like the sweater. I love these assymetrical hems and hope they stay in style and do not look dated. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-3-30x30-challenge/page/2#post-1880715 Fri, 19 Jan 2018 23:00:30 +0000 Katerina 1880715@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, that sweater is gorgeous, I would really love to have one just like that. The outfit is beautiful, you look fantastic.<br /> Your niece is very talented. Do you have other pieces she has made? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-3-30x30-challenge/page/2#post-1880708 Fri, 19 Jan 2018 22:49:50 +0000 Anonymous 1880708@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Photos of today's outfit have been added to my post for today. I will try to get better lit ones and included a close up of the sweater bottom in 4.<br /> Katerina, the necklace was made by my talented niece. She has moved on to intricate beaded items.<br /> Sterling, I learned from the last 30x30 challenge that I needed variety, and adding items as I go has helped. I found that I am really depending on the floral top and plaid shirt for some relief from plain pieces. My original thought was to go all dark neutral with lots of texture like including my furry vest. Is does not look like that will happen, as I don't think there will be room for it.<br /> Sarah, I will try to get a picture of the coat with this outfit.<br /> Tanstaafi, I added a photo find of the orange under things for you. What fun to try to match them to your outfits! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-3-30x30-challenge/page/2#post-1880696 Fri, 19 Jan 2018 22:10:24 +0000 tanstaafl 1880696@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m glad to hear I’m not the only one who gets happiness out of wearing pretty underthings. I actually try to match them to my outfits, even when there is no chance that they will show. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-3-30x30-challenge/page/2#post-1880670 Fri, 19 Jan 2018 20:28:56 +0000 SarahD8 1880670@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those different shades of burgundy together are just divine!</p> <p>I love the idea of an olive coat with this.

It was a bit crazy at work these past few days.&nbsp;The outfit&nbsp;is fab as your outfits always are! Lovely bag! Fun with pretty underwear.</p> <p>Your day 19 outfit&nbsp;is also wonderful. Asymmetrical black sweater sounds great - look forward to see it. Lovely combination&nbsp;of the necklace, jeans and belt - perfect with a&nbsp;black sweater. The necklace is really, really&nbsp;chic.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-3-30x30-challenge/page/2#post-1880642 Fri, 19 Jan 2018 18:55:25 +0000 Anonymous 1880642@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, Mainelady, Sarah and Angie, for your helpful comments.<br /> Day 19: The plan is Babysitting, Dogwalking, washing clothes, ironing, straightening up the house. I am adding another piece to my 30 just because I wanted to wear it now. Black merino wool EF assymetrical sweater. Today I am wearing it with dark burgundy jeans, burgundy stone necklace, burgundy and metallic socks, my olive coat, dark grey ankle boots. I need to make some finds later. Photos of outfit. I will still try for one with the olive coat. Sorry they are so dark. It is hard to see the black cardigan. I tried s close up of the bottom in 4. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-3-30x30-challenge/page/2#post-1880638 Fri, 19 Jan 2018 18:42:02 +0000 LaPed 1880638@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE that asymmetrical colour-blocked sweater on you.

I bought them for summer clothes in case bra straps show but am happy to wear them for color, though hidden, in winter. Besides, the bright colors do not show through the heavier fabrics. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-3-30x30-challenge/page/2#post-1880543 Fri, 19 Jan 2018 15:10:52 +0000 SarahD8 1880543@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That red looks fantastic with your hair, and I love that you’ve picked up the blue in the plaid with your handbag! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-3-30x30-challenge/page/2#post-1880464 Fri, 19 Jan 2018 10:26:17 +0000 Mainelady 1880464@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy, of course day 18 is a fab outfit! You have found one of your happiness factors! Pretty underwear! I have a friend who only wears colorful matching bras and panties, because they make her so happy. Go Team Underwear! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-3-30x30-challenge/page/2#post-1880436 Fri, 19 Jan 2018 05:53:18 +0000 Anonymous 1880436@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Day 18 was a repeat of the earlier outfit of blue jeans, plaid shirt, and red vest. This time I wore black wool socks and old LeCanadienne booties, oh, and red underwear. It worked well for the stock show and lots of walking. I am learning from this challenge that bright underwear sets make me happy.<br /> DGS was more impressed with the heavy machinery than the animals, although the milking demonstration was memorable enough that at home he tried to milk the dog! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-3-30x30-challenge/page/2#post-1880060 Thu, 18 Jan 2018 07:10:20 +0000 Dianna 1880060@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy, I loved all 4 outfits, but my favorite one is the with the "pot of chili" sweater.&nbsp; You look amazing in light grey. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-3-30x30-challenge/page/2#post-1880044 Thu, 18 Jan 2018 03:59:53 +0000 Anonymous 1880044@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Windchime, this challenge is forcing me to find new ways to wear this skirt other than just with whites. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-3-30x30-challenge/page/2#post-1880034 Thu, 18 Jan 2018 03:33:05 +0000 Windchime 1880034@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love all your outfits here, Joy!
