Fall clothes are more interesting, and I've picked up a few casual jackets I want to wear. It sounds like a lot, but I'm revamping my color scheme because I went grey last year and beige is really bad now.</p> <p>I love red and turquoise together. Just like Native American jewelry. I love the Burberry scarf - cute plaid and cashmere - wow! I just don't like the price. I also love the monochromatic look of #6. I have some penny loafers, but can't figure out how to wear them. Maybe I should try this look, when it cools off. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-im-thinking-about-these-days-for-fall-while-i-wait-for-it-to-actually-happen#post-1344491 Mon, 01 Sep 2014 14:24:43 +0000 Anonymous 1344491@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>jules -&nbsp;</b>the Burberry plaid was off of Net-a-Porter. &nbsp;Love this new version of their iconic plaid.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>alana -&nbsp;</b>thanks - ! &nbsp;we'll see what comes into stores here in the next month or so; might just succumb to ordering online if nothing bright and crazy appears </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-im-thinking-about-these-days-for-fall-while-i-wait-for-it-to-actually-happen#post-1344484 Mon, 01 Sep 2014 14:06:01 +0000 jackiec 1344484@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the bright colours.

The bright blues are so interesting and would be gorgeous with your hair. I have a deep pink JCrew peacoat that makes me very happy in the winter, and this year I need to a new longer coat. I'm not sure if I want a plaid, a camel, or a navy military-inspired look. I will be watching you!</p> <p>I also love the muted traditional palette of pic 6 -- I could put together something similar from my closet, although probably with BFs or straights instead of skinnies. I really hope the Zara loafers work for me now that I see this!</p> <p>I love the glossy brogues and dark leather sneakers, too. And those Acne boots are lovely - I have similar ones from Zara last year. </p> <p>I am intrigued to see all the scarves in your pics. I'm a mess when it comes to scarves other than true wool ones. Please post some looks with scarves and show me what to do. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-im-thinking-about-these-days-for-fall-while-i-wait-for-it-to-actually-happen#post-1344048 Sun, 31 Aug 2014 21:06:50 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 1344048@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it all but especially the deep aqua coats. &nbsp;I have the sweetest of sweet eyes for that color. &nbsp;Those booties are gorgeous too. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-im-thinking-about-these-days-for-fall-while-i-wait-for-it-to-actually-happen#post-1344043 Sun, 31 Aug 2014 20:57:41 +0000 Anonymous 1344043@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Loving you choices and colors.

I also have a cobalt blue leather puffer and true red long puffer coat. I like wearing these bright and cheery colors. When we're wearing our winter coats for 6+ months we better like them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-im-thinking-about-these-days-for-fall-while-i-wait-for-it-to-actually-happen#post-1344011 Sun, 31 Aug 2014 20:08:09 +0000 Sal 1344011@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lots of gorgeous picks here. I love the coats. I agree having a stunning coat or two is important,; if the coat is great you can be quite simple underneath. And while there is the look of the season, they are slower to date than other pieces.</p> <p>I love the navy look in pic 6, very classy and sophisticated. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-im-thinking-about-these-days-for-fall-while-i-wait-for-it-to-actually-happen#post-1343997 Sun, 31 Aug 2014 19:21:50 +0000 Suz 1343997@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I am in love with every one of your photos and finds! Gorgeous.&nbsp;</p> <p>I'm a huge fan of the bright coat. I own one cranberry red wool coat and hope to find another bright coat this season at a decent price point. If I could find a wonderful, bright puffer, I would be happy. I am tired of my grey one.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-im-thinking-about-these-days-for-fall-while-i-wait-for-it-to-actually-happen#post-1343993 Sun, 31 Aug 2014 19:15:42 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 1343993@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ah, color! I've been thinking about a pair of bright driving moccasins, too. But it's not really in my style wheelhouse - more preppy than I usually go - so I'm debating with myself whether they'd get worn or not. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-im-thinking-about-these-days-for-fall-while-i-wait-for-it-to-actually-happen#post-1343988 Sun, 31 Aug 2014 19:03:29 +0000 Anonymous 1343988@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I've held true to my promise not to go all crazy and buy a bunch of new clothes after joining this wonderful group. &nbsp;It has been so hard not to though: &nbsp;looking at all the NAS buys and styling ideas, looking at all of the wonderful WIW's - so inspiring and it has me chomping at the bit to wear some new things.</p> <p>The trouble is (and maybe it's a good thing), I've been out looking around in stores a lot over the past two weeks, and am not finding ANYTHING inspiring. &nbsp;There has been surprisingly little of true fall out there (only in the juniors' stores for back-to-school) and none of the gorgeous greens, blues and dark reds I've been hoping to see. &nbsp;So I'm biding my time until the real stuff appears - and hopefully it will.</p> <p>I went a little nuts yesterday and did some on-line ordering - a pair of navy patent booties from Zara, a wine coloured sweater, also from Zara, an interesting pair of cropped black pants from Aritizia, and some slingback booties from Bluefly (Dolce Vita). We'll see what happens with it all. &nbsp;</p> <p>So in the meantime I have been entertaining myself with ideas for a new coat I'll add to my collection this fall. &nbsp;In my climate and in my job, It's not unusual for me to have a coat on all day - so it's often&nbsp;&nbsp;more of my look that the pieces underneath are. &nbsp;All of a sudden I'm craving a crazy bright coat - and it started with the streetsnap in pic 1. Of course I'm not going to wear it with reds and yellows etc - but that colour! &nbsp;So, once you spot one coat in a bright colour, others beg to be noticed too - pics 2 and 3. &nbsp;I want to be wearing all of the pieces on pic 6 right now - and am hoping to replicate the sweater, bag and loafers in my price range. &nbsp;Other pics are added here for a total look inspiration. &nbsp;Wish I could have figured out how to add pics into the body of the post for easier viewing but couldn't! &nbsp;Sorry &nbsp; Footwear, scarves and a navy bag - all on my looking list - those plaid coats are another consideration.&nbsp;</p> <p>I'm not a fan of real red - but this J Crew coat looks so gorgeous with the fray pieces underneath , I may have to actually buy this one. We'll see!&nbsp;</p> <p>*disclaimer - the finds are mostly from Net-a-Porter and only for colour and style inspiration. No, I didn't win the lottery. &nbsp; </p>
