It’s a fun mix of classic and edge all in one and the swing is a delightful feature. The addition of a scarf levels up this casual outfit. Your mom is lucky to have you help her! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw%e2%80%a6for-an-afternoon-of-paperwork#post-2408655 Sat, 21 Mar 2026 11:05:18 +0000 ChristelJ 2408655@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just love your new trench! Also love the fact that you dressed in such a stylish outfit for such a mundane task. Your mom is lucky to have you take that on. I have taken over my mom’s paperwork too but it is not my superpower. Maybe dressing better would help me, ha ha.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw%e2%80%a6for-an-afternoon-of-paperwork#post-2408647 Sat, 21 Mar 2026 05:29:40 +0000 Star (Lise) 2408647@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I see the swing!

All her life, she has let the men-folk in her life deal with household financial matters. &nbsp;When she became a widow, I did the tax stuff, and a trusted friend of my mother’s who did bookkeeping for a church, helped with the day to day - for a modest fee. &nbsp;</p> <p> <div><br /></div><div>Last spring mom relocated from a retirement home in a Big City to a retirement home in the town where I live, and now I get to be her secretary. &nbsp;Fortunately, organizing and managing paperwork is my superpower. &nbsp;</div><div><br /></div><div>Today was ‘part 2’ of tax time - ‘part 1’ having occurred 2 weeks ago. &nbsp;I knew I would likely be sitting on the floor, sorting papers - so dressed for comfort! &nbsp;Joggers, a cozy sweater, my new cropped trench, a beanie, and the LePliage to contain the files! </p> <p>I can report that I&nbsp;<i>was&nbsp;</i>comfortable - and that the afternoon was a success!</p> <p>Note: I tried to capture the ‘swing’ silouhette of the trench (see pic #4) but my outfit photos don’t do it justice. &nbsp;It’s styled to be oversized, and looks very cool in motion! &nbsp;</p> <p> </div><div><br /></div><div><br /><div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div></div></div></p>
