Feet changing - job changing needing lower heels. I have added the born boots</p> <p>Suz- yes i guess it is my uniform. I love the wool coat look but it is not my wheelhouse style at all. I am pretty well known for my leather jackets. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-ordered-3#post-1936857 Sat, 14 Jul 2018 13:32:47 +0000 Angie 1936857@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>NICE</p> <p>Three top picks:&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-ordered-3#post-1936750 Sat, 14 Jul 2018 01:19:04 +0000 Suz 1936750@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>FrannieB, it's always so great to see you post and I adore your choices. Can't wait to find out how they work out for you. I was thinking of LisaP when I read your description of in/out. She <b>does</b> wear coats (in Winnipeg) but I think tends to wear stylish wool coats with only one layer beneath (a light sweater?) and people see the coats. In a place where most are wearing puffers, this probably makes a big impression. Your leather jackets would do the same.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-ordered-3#post-1936748 Sat, 14 Jul 2018 01:04:34 +0000 Joyce B 1936748@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You got such nice items. I love your shoe collection, it will be very useful for sure.<br /> It is great to see you again. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-ordered-3#post-1936581 Fri, 13 Jul 2018 18:48:47 +0000 Berkeley Girl 1936581@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm so impressed with your toughness re the Minnesota weather! One of my sisters lives there and I've always had to bundle up when visiting in the winter. Once I was there in February with our other sister for a family event and the dash from the parking garage to the hotel lobby, which took all of two minutes, was the coldest I've ever been in my life. But we're from Berkeley as indicated. As a recent article in the San Francisco Chronicle said, we Bay Areans all complain if temps dip below 60 degrees here (and also they go above 75. We're so fragile.) You must be a native!&nbsp;</p> <p>The waterproof sneaker booties are way cool, and seem very useful and versatile. And I agree that the dress will be great with a leather jacket.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-ordered-3#post-1936563 Fri, 13 Jul 2018 17:43:05 +0000 KnittingGene 1936563@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I always love seeing what you’re wearing. And, as mentioned above, your thought process is really helpful. Also, waterproof sneakers! I had missed those - thanks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-ordered-3#post-1936561 Fri, 13 Jul 2018 17:32:11 +0000 frannieb 1936561@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Diana -<br />I thought the Blondo's were great<br />they Ticked a couple boxes for me<br />A. I feel in love with the dress tennis shoe look last year - so a casual look black shoe<br />B. Wanted a high top<br />C. Waterproof<br />D. I'm lazy and like slip on shoes - they didn't have laces<br />and&nbsp;<br />They felt great on my feet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-ordered-3#post-1936536 Fri, 13 Jul 2018 16:46:48 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 1936536@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just wanted to say hi, Frannie - good to hear from you and hear you're doing well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-ordered-3#post-1936527 Fri, 13 Jul 2018 16:21:20 +0000 Diana 1936527@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great choices! &nbsp;This all looks very cohesive to me, like you've just made a perfect mini-capsule, albeit with a few extra shoes. &nbsp;;) &nbsp;</p> <p>I ordered the caslon jacket too, so I'm glad to hear that you loved it. &nbsp;So far, all reports seem to suggest it's amazing!<br />What are your thoughts on the Blondo Giselles? &nbsp;I was quite tempted but didn't order because I don't really know if I need them. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-ordered-3#post-1936520 Fri, 13 Jul 2018 16:01:42 +0000 Toban 1936520@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love your picks. Thank you also for providing insight into the why’s of your choices. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-ordered-3#post-1936513 Fri, 13 Jul 2018 15:54:36 +0000 Kathie 1936513@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very nice capsule, and great thought process. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-ordered-3#post-1936510 Fri, 13 Jul 2018 15:52:18 +0000 Barbara Diane 1936510@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice items, well thought out shopping plan. I’m a bit jealous as I ordered the dress and other items yesterday morning but I haven’t received any shipping confirmations yet, and the order confirmation mentioned that they would let me know as soon as possible if they couldn’t fulfill the order. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-ordered-3#post-1936507 Fri, 13 Jul 2018 15:46:15 +0000 frannieb 1936507@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks to YLF over the years, I have a wardrobe I adore and not to many holes.<br />I don't post much anymore, continue to be an avid follower reader of the blog.<br />Sharing my sale pics because it is always fun to see what people get.<br />&nbsp;<br />First goal stock up on shoes. I switched jobs and travel between 13 buildings. This was tough on my shoes and I need to retire some shoes that barely made it through the winter. Parking lots in the winter are tough on shoes.<br />The key is waterproof, I live in MN and while zipping around to buildings I do not have time to be switching out of boots into shoes. </p> <p>3 pair are waterproof and perfect for winter<br />1 pair loafers because I have some sort of sick black loafer obsession<br />1 pair of black Sandals because comfort is my friend </p> <p>Second goal was adding another leather jacket -<br />Again new job. I zip in and out of buildings and unless it is brutally cold (like -10F or below) I don't wear a winter jacket - no time to track down someplace to put my jacket and then retrieve said jacket. So instead I just layer a light sweater then a topper/leather jacket. My love of my leather jacket collection grew exponentially last year<br />Caslon - I tried on in store and it is a dream - I told myself I would not get another black jacket but I did. At least I got a Burgundy one last year. ( my collection includes a Green, Burgundy, faux white, plus with new clack one&nbsp; 3 black in completely different styles</p> <p>EF black and white topper because it is my basic uniform - black pants/black skirt/dress and a topper or leather jacket.</p> <p>The Angie dress of the sale because I have never ever ever gone wrong with an Angie pic - will look great with my leather jacket</p> <p>And some pants because plaid pants seems fun and I don't need anymore jeans or black pants</p> <p>And I always get the silk EF tee that is on sale during the sale - This year I got black and navy.</p> <p>Overall it makes me really really happy - it is super cohesive&nbsp; with what I already own. Had I not killed a bunch of shoes last year it would have been a small sale for me. </p>
