It has definitely been a fun challenge and I am really learning a lot about using the minimal amount of pieces in different ways.&nbsp; &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-ending-1106#post-2202477 Mon, 14 Jun 2021 07:49:27 +0000 Bijou 2202477@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the tunic dress on you too, there are lots of layering opportunities with that piece. It is funny with the challenge, I have also been thinking "I wish I had picked a different item" too. I am finding the less statement pieces easier to style differently. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-ending-1106#post-2202476 Mon, 14 Jun 2021 07:43:52 +0000 Sally 2202476@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you <b>Shevia.&nbsp;</b><br />Thank you <b>Sal</b>, but I have been struggling with 2 pieces too...the shoes.&nbsp; I chose shoes with heels on them and as I rush around a lot and especially with this rainy winter weather, I have no opportunity to wear shoes with a heel to work so I'm just going to have to forgo that part of the challenge.&nbsp; There are a couple of evening events related to work and I might put the shoes on then...kind of day to night transition.&nbsp; &nbsp;I am really looking forward to seeing your outfits.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-ending-1106#post-2202458 Mon, 14 Jun 2021 02:43:28 +0000 Sal 2202458@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are doing very well Sally!&nbsp; I have been going great guns but wish I had picked a couple of different pieces - there are a couple I am struggling with!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-ending-1106#post-2202293 Sun, 13 Jun 2021 02:25:56 +0000 Jaime 2202293@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The dress and white shirt is fantastic!

Try a Breton stripe shirt or polka dots. You look comfortable yet dressed up a bit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-ending-1106#post-2202047 Sat, 12 Jun 2021 02:44:52 +0000 Sally 2202047@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you <b>Runcarla</b> and <b>Rachylou</b>.&nbsp; I will definitely wear the dress again.&nbsp; I'll try some other shirts with my other coloured dresses (same style) and see if you like it as much.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-ending-1106#post-2202045 Sat, 12 Jun 2021 02:40:38 +0000 rachylou 2202045@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh, the tunic is neato keen! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-ending-1106#post-2202037 Sat, 12 Jun 2021 02:31:42 +0000 Carla 2202037@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The tunic dress and white shirt may be a formula, but the avant-guard shape of the dress, and your styling with the tights and menswear style shoes I anything&nbsp;<i>but&nbsp;</i>formulaic. &nbsp;Wear on repeat and feel confident about your choice. &nbsp;Stylish indeed!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-ending-1106#post-2202030 Sat, 12 Jun 2021 02:07:34 +0000 Sally 2202030@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you everyone for your kind words.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />The tunic dress is a favourite for me.&nbsp; I have 3 of the same style and have been buying them for about 7 years now. Sadly I think they are not making this style anymore as I can't see them on the site.&nbsp; I like how I can wear them across seasons and across sizes.&nbsp; I have added a pic of me at my heaviest wearing one of them and 3 sizes down, I still feel comfortable in them.&nbsp; I might try one of them with my oversized denim shirt this week for a different vibe.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />@<b>katerina.</b>&nbsp; The jacket was a gift from my mum.&nbsp; She would have bought it online at ezibuy an online shop in NZ and Australia.&nbsp; I also like the column of black and am going to try different scarfs.&nbsp;<br />@<b>Tanya</b> I do like the shape of the tunic and it covers a multitude of sins as my Aunt used to say.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />@<b>slim cat </b>Thank you!<br />@<b>kellygirl</b> - That pleases me so much as&nbsp; as my grandmother's family were Danish and I love Nordic crime.&nbsp; If you have any to recommend please let me know the names.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />@<b>Jonesey</b> Thank you. I will wear the dress more now.&nbsp;<br />@ <b>Angie</b> that is the only way I know how to tie a scarf.&nbsp; A sales lady in s shop showed me years ago and it only takes 20 secs, so I always tie like that.&nbsp; &nbsp;<br />Thank you<b> Nikki</b> and <b>Irina.&nbsp;</b> I always get compliments on those dresses.&nbsp; I am tempted to get a tailoress to make me some more if I ever run out.&nbsp;<br />Thank you <b>suntiger.</b> Yes I am definitely going to stick to the formula but think of ways to make it slightly differently...at least during this challenge.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-ending-1106#post-2201957 Fri, 11 Jun 2021 20:37:22 +0000 Anonymous 2201957@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #4 most, and nothing wrong with having a formula!

That dress is really fantastic on you and I love how you've styled it with the crisp white shirt and denim jacket!

What an interesting shaped tunic. It looks terrific with and without the topper. Great pant outfits too. You look sleek and polished and make me think of those characters in nordic crime dramas. YLF! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-ending-1106#post-2201873 Fri, 11 Jun 2021 14:37:20 +0000 slim cat 2201873@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fun looks - especially the tunic dress! #1 is my favorite but all are great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-ending-1106#post-2201847 Fri, 11 Jun 2021 12:27:41 +0000 Tanya 2201847@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You wear black so well, and all the outfits great.&nbsp; &nbsp;Having said that, the first one is amazing, the unusual shape of the dress/tunic truly brings it up a notch. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-ending-1106#post-2201824 Fri, 11 Jun 2021 10:47:15 +0000 Katerina 2201824@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I love the tunic dress and the way you have styled it. Excellent both with and without the denim jacket. And what a great denim jacket. I do not have any blue denim jacket at the moment- this would be a one I would want :-)<br /> I like the black outfits on you. The last one with the silver scarf is great! Nothing beats a well working formula. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-ending-1106#post-2201819 Fri, 11 Jun 2021 07:39:33 +0000 Sally 2201819@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>thank you Fashintern.&nbsp; I have always worn a lot of black.&nbsp; The only problem with this is that it can stop you from experimenting and using more colours in your outfits.&nbsp; Having said this I love black as a colour for clothing.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-ending-1106#post-2201818 Fri, 11 Jun 2021 07:33:36 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2201818@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can’t believe how well you wear black. These all look lively and pulled together. I like the tunic with the jacket. 3 is also really nice. A formula for work is a good idea. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/week-ending-1106#post-2201811 Fri, 11 Jun 2021 07:22:21 +0000 Sally 2201811@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have stuck to my resolution not to wear jeans to work.&nbsp; Thats the easiest part.&nbsp; The hardest part is making things look interesting and devising different outfits.&nbsp; I find myself getting into a habit of repeating formulas etc.&nbsp; There was a 4 day work week this week but I have only photographed 3 outfits.&nbsp; 1 of them was nearly a repeat from the first week except for a change of shoes and I was really tired that day so forgot to take a photo.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />pic one and two.&nbsp; A tunic dress from city chic.&nbsp; This dress is actually supposed to be a tunic for someone bigger than me but I like wearing it as a dress.&nbsp; I put my white shirt underneath and wore it with a denim jacket to tone down the formality of it.&nbsp;<br />pic 3 - my ponte pants and my ponte jacket with one of my challenge shirts.&nbsp; The grey at the bottom is part of the shirt and is a bit of bling at the bottom.&nbsp; &nbsp;My son said it looks like I'm wearing my yoga pants.&nbsp;<br />pic 4- country road trousers, black betty basics top, black cardigan and silver scarf....starting to get into a rut but I like the formula.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
