But I thrift shop so I don't<br /> have to. Here is something I really am craving. Saw a version in plaid perhaps on<br /> a blogger and I love this version that I wonder if I can engineer myself from a<br /> thrifted shirt. Even if I were willing to make an investment in clothing, I'm much too<br /> fickle in my desires to want to do so.</p> <p><a href="http://www.luxist.com/2010/05/10/alexander-wang-front-tie-shirt-skirt/" rel="nofollow">http://www.luxist.com/2010/05/.....irt-skirt/</a></p> <p>I would not mind finding some mustard/ochre shooties or that golden camel color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-still-on-your-fall-wishlist#post-393800 Fri, 29 Jul 2011 09:23:16 +0000 Lynne 393800@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sparky, I am with you on non-black handbags. There are so many lovely colours to choose from at the moment! I bought this lady-like Picard one in the sales, and have it put aside for my birthday:</p> <p><a href="http://www.picard-lederwaren.de/cms/en/spring_summer_2011/woman/fashion/victoria/4890.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.picard-lederwaren.d.....a/4890.htm</a></p> <p>do check out the rest of website, these bags are lovely IRL! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-still-on-your-fall-wishlist#post-393789 Fri, 29 Jul 2011 06:02:33 +0000 RandomThoughts (Andrea) 393789@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I want a soft, warm, non-itchy hat like the one MPJ posted recently. I think that really covers my current wants. I might like to replace my sweater coat too - the one I have currently is starting to look kind of worn. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-still-on-your-fall-wishlist#post-393783 Fri, 29 Jul 2011 05:10:42 +0000 Elly 393783@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really have a ton of needs this year, so many of my "wants" are going to have to sit on the sideline (probably many of my perceived "needs" too, unless I become employed somewhere decent soon!). I'm joining the workforc (hopefully!) and have been on a 2+ year SYC, so my already small casual wardrobe was pretty decimated too. I have two pair of casual jeans in good shape, my version of a puffer, and some gear-type shoes. Everything else is in "rag" to "halfway gone" condition. I have a couple of warm weather dresses and a pair of dressy/casual wedge sandals that are ok too (but I live somewhere with a very significant fall and winter). </p> <p>Currently I am concentrating on UNDERWEAR. I need to purchase 3 new bras and at least 14 pairs of new undies. Socks and tights could use some updating.</p> <p>I also need INTERVIEW wear. That means a suit or a pair of slacks or pencil in a nice fabrication to wear with a couple of blouses or button fronts. Also, need closed toe shoes or boots to wear. </p> <p>BOOTS-- at least one pair that I can wear in small amounts of snow without destroying-- I have heavy duty snowboots and waterproof hikers taken care of. I would love more than one--- either something lace up and something pull on, something high or mid calf and something ankle, or something really rugged and something more dressy. </p> <p>I need to find a PURSE or BAG to replace my coed-looking backpack. </p> <p>I also need LAYERING Ts, TOPS that can go to WORK, SWEATERS or JACKETS for work and at least one more pair of JEANS (something DRESSIER, DARKER, SKINNY maybe?). </p> <p>STYLEwise I'm still craving---</p> <p>A chambray/denim shirt or denim jacket<br /> A boyfriend jacket<br /> Frye sabrina boots or docs<br /> A jean skirt<br /> A silver pendant necklace<br /> turquoise earrings<br /> A wool coat<br /> cowlnecks<br /> a rugged leather "jeans" belt<br /> red<br /> a elastic belt for my natural waist<br /> leopard </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-still-on-your-fall-wishlist#post-393704 Fri, 29 Jul 2011 01:58:09 +0000 Sparky 393704@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great minds must think alike. </p> <p>Since last fall, I have been looking for:</p> <p>* the perfect knee-high cognac boot<br /> * the just-right knee-length wool coat<br /> * handbag that sings to me, that's not black</p> <p>And since December, I have been looking for the perfect cropped leather jacket. I had really hoped to find it at NAS, but it just wasn't meant to be. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-still-on-your-fall-wishlist#post-393700 Fri, 29 Jul 2011 01:50:38 +0000 Sveta 393700@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have to go pick up and try on my order form Nordies first to see what is left but...<br /> -knee-length wool coat in color (cobalt blue or indigo would be my preference);<br /> - great fitting bootcut or trouser jeans </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-still-on-your-fall-wishlist#post-393616 Fri, 29 Jul 2011 00:16:41 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 393616@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>On my list:<br /> black ankle boots<br /> black knee-high boots (eternally on the list, sigh, thanks long legs and chunky calves)<br /> brown boots<br /> black ponte skinnies or similar<br /> white knit top with short sleeves, nicer than a t-shirt<br /> white button-front shirt</p> <p>I think that's it, thankfully, but I won't know for sure until I pull out my fall clothes in September-ish. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-still-on-your-fall-wishlist#post-393533 Thu, 28 Jul 2011 21:06:40 +0000 Carole 393533@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>you guys are giving my ideas............. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-still-on-your-fall-wishlist#post-393528 Thu, 28 Jul 2011 21:03:36 +0000 Queen Mum 393528@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would really like to find:</p> <p>*a pair of sleek, chic, mid height heel (2 1/2 in), dressy shooties (like the blue suede ones)<br /> *a couple more long sleeve blouses<br /> *a couple of cold weather sweaters that don't make me look like the michelin man<br /> *animal print pumps (have some on order :-)... we'll see what my feet say!<br /> *a new bag... I'll probably use birthday money</p> <p>and I won't actively search for, but if I stumble upon them...</p> <p>a red coat<br /> black leather jacket<br /> red dress</p> <p>I really do think that between last years finds and NAS (so far) I am very well set to survive the fall and winter. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-still-on-your-fall-wishlist#post-393485 Thu, 28 Jul 2011 20:04:50 +0000 Scarlet 393485@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would love a colorful wool coat.

Yes, we have a couple months of hot weather left as well, it'll get into Autumn sometime in October. I need my list revisited and taken care of because I'll be already in Fall climate in about 1 month- going to Europe and they've been having temps in the mid 60's to 70's and rainy for a while! But I hope it'll warm up, I definitely need to address my Fall wardrobe holes:</p> <p>*comfortable everyday 'dressy smart' flats that won't kill my fussy feet, so far I tried the Ara Bella (courtesy of barkingdogshoes blog) but they are not that comfy. I found a pair of the highly spoken of AGL brown ballet flats on sale for 99 so I hope they'll work out!</p> <p>*few cardigans as I always lack in that department and am very picky, basics like leggings and layering tops (I don't wear camis or tanks in summer) so I need to get some for layering under the cardis. Some scarves.</p> <p>*dark denim jacket, the one I have is a little big.</p> <p>I do have knee high cognac boots (Miz Mooz King) that I loove from last winter, and a pair of black boots and a pair of short black booties, seems like I'm all set in the winter boot department! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-still-on-your-fall-wishlist#post-393421 Thu, 28 Jul 2011 18:25:46 +0000 Lisa 393421@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gray cashmere sweater<br /> Sheath dress in black or gray<br /> Long sleeved blouses (these are so hard to find I always see shirts so I am open to colors and prints here)<br /> Work tote bag<br /> Black skinny pants </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-still-on-your-fall-wishlist#post-393416 Thu, 28 Jul 2011 18:22:26 +0000 Anonymous 393416@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Still on the list from last year are:<br /> * grey (or possibly red or cobalt) wool coat that's knee length with a revere collar and a bit fitted so that it doesn't require a belt.<br /> * a sweater dress that's not grey or black and knee length<br /> * light grey leather boots with low heels that aren't suede or Western and fit a 13" calf or are booties.<br /> Knit long-sleeved top in cobalt<br /> * In addition, I've craving some navy, warm brown (maybe camel), and olive items. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-still-on-your-fall-wishlist#post-393396 Thu, 28 Jul 2011 17:54:08 +0000 Marley 393396@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am enjoying our summer weather so much that I really don't even want to think about fall or winter. I just want summer to last year round. HowEVER, if I am forced to think about what I would put on my list, it would be a black leather jacket, a teal/turquoise handbag, a red handbag, and cream boots. Unless things change dramatically in the economics department of our household, none of these items will come home to live with me this winter! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-still-on-your-fall-wishlist#post-393383 Thu, 28 Jul 2011 17:35:18 +0000 celia 393383@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm really over summer and thinking about Fall/Winter.<br /> I'm still considering new silhouettes for winter but already have a longish list.</p> <p>Still on my list from previous years:</p> <p>Cognac knee high boots<br /> Non black long sleeved dress.</p> <p>Needs:</p> <p>Warm styllish boots<br /> Light weight blouses to wear under my vest and cropped jacket</p> <p>Wants:</p> <p>Trouve shrunken blazer<br /> Black skinnies<br /> cape(maybe the GUESS one) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-still-on-your-fall-wishlist#post-393365 Thu, 28 Jul 2011 17:08:26 +0000 Suz 393365@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'll be building almost from the ground up, post weight-loss. So I'll have to set some priorities. Shoes, for one. Believe it or not, I haven't owned a decent pair of fall/winter not-especially-dressy shoes (as opposed to boots) for YEARS. Mostly because I haven't found the combination of fit/comfort/style that will work for me, but partly because I was such a minimalist that I imagined I should be able to get by with ONE pair of shoes for all circumstances that weren't super-dress up or boot-worthy. And never could find that pair. I now understand that it is really okay to treat myself to a couple of pairs of shoes. </p> <p>So...shoes...a new and stylish winter coat that is not a puffer...preferably red or navy. Several woven blouses or shirts. A cropped jacket in some interesting colour. Probably can't afford all of these this year, but I'll be on the lookout. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-still-on-your-fall-wishlist#post-393363 Thu, 28 Jul 2011 17:06:25 +0000 Angie 393363@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's a nice list, Khris! </p> <p>And nice wish list wants for everyone else too. </p> <p>I have had these two items on my Winter wish list forever: </p> <p>- Dressy cream low heeled knee-high boots</p> <p>- Tomato red knee-length coat</p> <p>And I am always looking for blouses and knitwear because I am very hard to please in that department. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-still-on-your-fall-wishlist#post-393357 Thu, 28 Jul 2011 16:49:13 +0000 Mo 393357@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was lucky to find my cognac boots this spring but I still have a leather jacket on the wish list. It's been 5 years now, so that's a recurring item. I'm sure the trouble is my budget vs what I like I'm going to have to someday forego other goodies to plunk down some $$$ for a jacket I really love.<br /> Random other wants: red cashmere scarf and grey booties </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-still-on-your-fall-wishlist#post-393355 Thu, 28 Jul 2011 16:47:40 +0000 Anonymous 393355@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>gray wool coat<br /> red jeans<br /> pattern blouse-y top<br /> black cardi </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-still-on-your-fall-wishlist#post-393351 Thu, 28 Jul 2011 16:45:42 +0000 rae 393351@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are the most elusive:<br /> - Red non-patent, non-peep-toe, covered-heel, platform pumps at a good price<br /> - The Perfect red wool coat<br /> - The Perfect citron/chartreuse scarf/hood </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-still-on-your-fall-wishlist#post-393336 Thu, 28 Jul 2011 16:30:18 +0000 Mamapicklejuice 393336@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would LOVE to find:</p> <p>* cognac knee high boots<br /> * a soft sweater jacket that is not frumpy<br /> * short jacket/coat that is fab not frumpy</p> <p>(see a theme??) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-still-on-your-fall-wishlist#post-393334 Thu, 28 Jul 2011 16:28:51 +0000 Sarah 393334@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Like you, I still have months of summer to get through before I can think about fall.<br /> But of the things I know for sure, I need:</p> <p>Replace Gap Really Skinny pants (with the same ones, or something different...they're just worn to the ground)</p> <p>Sleeker black boots (my only ones are scrunchy)</p> <p>Black shirtdress (I have one in mind, but it reallyreally needs to go on sale)</p> <p>I'm sure things will pop up, like sweaters etc but these have been on my list for awhile.</p> <p>Something new that popped up are the mustard yellow wool crop pants at JCrew.

Other than that I am not really looking for anything specific at this point. We still have several months of extremely hot weather. I may change my tune once the real cold weather starts in Jan or Feb. </p> <p>My favorite cognac boots are the Target Kachiri. They are real leather, fit my wide calf and they are only $50!! Love them boots! I liked them so much I got them in two colors. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-still-on-your-fall-wishlist#post-393330 Thu, 28 Jul 2011 16:24:17 +0000 chewyspaghetti 393330@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Even though we still have months of summer weather left here, I am really thinking about fall/winter. I'm sure that as time goes on, my wishlist will change- but it's already forming in my head. I am realizing that I still have several items from last year (or the year before) that I want to find-</p> <p>cognac knee high boots</p> <p>fuzzy vest</p> <p>flat oxfords</p> <p>Which items have been on your list since last fall or longer? Or have things fallen off your list? </p>
