Perfection! Love the Dries top, naturally, and the boots are really spectacular! I love the fisherman's sweater too--it looks like a perfect version of one. In #2, the two sets of prominent pockets kind of compete, IYKWIM. I would probably style that jacket open with a t-shirt and some rugged, dropped crotch pants. Maybe with #3, add a layer underneath the jacket that peeks out a few inches from the jacket?</p> <p>Love your hair, and the pic with your daughter is delightful. Please keep sharing your WIWs--I find them inspiring. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/well-why-not-more-thrift-store-selfies#post-2255360 Thu, 17 Mar 2022 23:54:44 +0000 The Cat 2255360@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#1 is my favourite.

It is looking better and better every day! How is that even possible?&nbsp;</p> <p>But I also love that first outfit, especially. So cool with the top and bookended booties!&nbsp;</p> <p>Also, what a delight to see DD in photo 2. That's a fun outfit, too. I like the combo of the jacket with the pants.&nbsp;</p> <p>Sob-- Mr. Suz is on his way to Israel in a few days and I can't go because I am teaching....(well, and $, too, plus staying home with child.) But it is his first visit in years due to Covid and he is excited (if a bit nervous) to go.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/well-why-not-more-thrift-store-selfies#post-2255138 Wed, 16 Mar 2022 15:23:04 +0000 slim cat 2255138@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous haircut and fun outfits - #1 pic as a favorite but all are super nice.

A lot of my courage in wearing whatever I want comes from your supportive and kind comments and each one is truly appreciated.<b><br />pirouette</b> Thank you! I should say my hair looks different depending if the picture is before a morning shift (still damp) or after an afternoon shift (dry).&nbsp;<br /><b>kellygirl</b> - Yes, I had forgotten all about those items!<br /><b>rachylou</b> - I want to see the shoes!<br /><b>Mirjana</b> - You always say something lovely!<br /><b>Jessikams</b> - I never thought I would make it through their teen years so well .<br /><b>Brooklyn</b> and <b>merwoman</b>- Thanks you! Good suggestions. That outfit didn't quite work for me.<br /><b>lyn67</b> - :)<br /><b>Laurie</b> - I am lucky!<br /><b>nuancedream</b> - These are the relatively tamest pair in my MG collection :).<br /><b>Angie</b> - You are so nice! Will try the jacket with something else next time. Love the idea of a Sergeant Pepper look. Yes, when I started following YLF that young woman was around 2 years old. Hard to believe! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/well-why-not-more-thrift-store-selfies#post-2255125 Wed, 16 Mar 2022 14:04:47 +0000 nuancedream 2255125@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So gorgeous, Jamie.

Your haircut is sublime, and the bookended snake boots match beautifully! So do your fab brows, and the stripey blouse. Mega yummy harmony and textural pattern mixing :)</p> <p>DD is adorable! And this once tiny baby twin gal is now towering over her Mama! Fab layering, and has Mama's fab brows to match.&nbsp;</p> <p>I think the jacket in #2 is begging for a skirt or blue jeans to befriend it ;)</p> <p>#3 has a delightful Sergeant Pepper look to it, and #4 is a classic. Always wonderful to see your looks, <b>Jaime.</b> This new job comes with perks for YLF!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/well-why-not-more-thrift-store-selfies#post-2255122 Wed, 16 Mar 2022 13:14:21 +0000 Laurie 2255122@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, really love #1 and 4 - you look just fab.

First, all outfits are beautiful on you , lovely pieces.

They’re all wonderful - love your jacket in 2 and sweater in 4, but 3 is probably my favourite because I always loved Marithe Francois… I should go find my Marithe shoes… </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/well-why-not-more-thrift-store-selfies#post-2255096 Wed, 16 Mar 2022 04:58:18 +0000 kellygirl 2255096@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Omg, you are a treat!

Your hair is beautiful. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/well-why-not-more-thrift-store-selfies#post-2255094 Wed, 16 Mar 2022 03:15:23 +0000 Jaime 2255094@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It is still "winter" here, surprisingly as this batch of selfies attest.<br />I went to Tel Aviv last week for my 6 week haircut and naturally stopped into a charity shop there. Imagine my delight to find a black and white striped Dries van Noten top. I think it is men's but of course I had to wear it asap:<br />#1 Said top with black jacket and jeans and a little pattern smash with the boots.<br />#2 DD2 came by the shop an graciously agreed to be in my selfie. Wearing a newish to me, very old Israeli jacket (ATA). Not sure if this is a keeper.<br />#3 Speaking of DDs they have recently cleaned out their closets and returned a few things to me. These are vintage Marithe Girbaud jeans - a label I have found a surprising lot of in Israel.&nbsp;<br />#4 Vintage wool cable knit sweater was another return from DD. Just the thing in a cold shop with a broken heater.<br />All comments always welcome. I am not sure about #2 and #3, #4 is total comfort zone, and I like #1 but might tweak it a bit next time I wear something similar.</p>
