I think I am going to L O V E this simple dress that the BF pooh pooh'ed at first glance.<br /> Una, Lol at being plugged in. And Denise, thanks for the jazzy cool shout out :)<br /> I would get the bear, but I already have a bunch of smiley face pillows and a purple velvet frog crowding the bed ha ha. We have a whimsical side in our household ;)<br /> Marianna, a happy birthday to you as well! I am celebrating turning 21 two times over . . . but I'm going running before dinner, as opposed to hitting the bars twice as hard hee hee. Might be getting smarter as I get older </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---a-pile-of-bears-a-paper-bag-dress-and-hardware-galore#post-618177 Sat, 12 May 2012 14:33:26 +0000 marianna 618177@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aww cute action shots!

Well, at least you looked fab in your red shirt - and the ruching adds nice textural interest to the bear fur ;-)</p> <p>Sorry to hear about your job postponement Gah! I hope there are no additional delays, but smart of you to keep up the search -- and looking wonderful in your new dress. You look smartly appropriate for the occasion! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---a-pile-of-bears-a-paper-bag-dress-and-hardware-galore#post-617930 Sat, 12 May 2012 01:47:25 +0000 ManidipaM 617930@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aw, Mo, have another bear hug! Those are some awesome pics, by the way. And an awesome outfit too --- love the femininity of the top, toned down by the khaki shorts.</p> <p>So glad you got that dress. It looks like it has the makings of a great transitional item too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---a-pile-of-bears-a-paper-bag-dress-and-hardware-galore#post-617915 Sat, 12 May 2012 01:37:33 +0000 velvetychocolate 617915@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Too cute! I and I love the olive-y "paper bag" dress on you - it looks fabulous, especially with that belt you've paired it with. I still can't believe you got it for a mere $8. Excellent buy! </p> <p>Are you going to get one of those bears? I've seen them in Costco myself (not lately, but in the past) and been tempted to get one. &lt;--stop laughing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---a-pile-of-bears-a-paper-bag-dress-and-hardware-galore#post-617866 Sat, 12 May 2012 01:00:40 +0000 Transcona Shannon 617866@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fab Mo - that is indeed a bummer about the job though. Love the pic with you hugging the bear! I bet he wanted to come home with you... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---a-pile-of-bears-a-paper-bag-dress-and-hardware-galore#post-617816 Sat, 12 May 2012 00:01:53 +0000 rae 617816@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bears, oh my! Wow, and they are big 'uns... good thing you tamed them with a hug. :)</p> <p>Love the red with olive, as well as the overall utility vibe here. And I must say I'm kinda jealous of your town - I'd love to wear your dress on business meet &amp; greets! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---a-pile-of-bears-a-paper-bag-dress-and-hardware-galore#post-617810 Fri, 11 May 2012 23:54:51 +0000 Angie 617810@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the bears and I just love #3 and #6! </p> <p>Sorry to hear about the job disappointment. Hang in there. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---a-pile-of-bears-a-paper-bag-dress-and-hardware-galore#post-617804 Fri, 11 May 2012 23:47:12 +0000 CocoLion 617804@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love you in #6! That's my fave, I tried on a dress like that at Target last year and still kicking myself that I didn't buy it.</p> <p>You look like a jazz musician in #4, so cool and grooving to the downbeat. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---a-pile-of-bears-a-paper-bag-dress-and-hardware-galore#post-617799 Fri, 11 May 2012 23:41:16 +0000 christieanne 617799@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know the pushback on work must be stressful for you - hope you continue to handle that with the grace and humor you ares showing today! The bear hug is very cute. </p> <p>I like your take on casual - still fairly dressed up for "dressed down". Perfect. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---a-pile-of-bears-a-paper-bag-dress-and-hardware-galore#post-617791 Fri, 11 May 2012 23:26:40 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 617791@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know you are just itching to get back to work but you look so relaxed that I an khaki with envy. I love the khaki shorts with the red top. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---a-pile-of-bears-a-paper-bag-dress-and-hardware-galore#post-617783 Fri, 11 May 2012 23:09:47 +0000 catgirl 617783@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mo, you look very casual chic! I love that you look plugged in in the 4th photo. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---a-pile-of-bears-a-paper-bag-dress-and-hardware-galore#post-617770 Fri, 11 May 2012 22:39:17 +0000 Jonesy 617770@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those are some enormous bears! Wow! I love all of these outfits, especially the black jacket (very chic and sharp). I love the mix of the bright tops with the more neutral bottoms, and the paper bag dress is fab.</p> <p>I am sorry that your start date has been delayed, but it is nice to see you :). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---a-pile-of-bears-a-paper-bag-dress-and-hardware-galore#post-617767 Fri, 11 May 2012 22:34:07 +0000 Mo 617767@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So I'm a big fat liar - here I still am! In all fairness, the job postponement is a huge bummer but I'm trying to stay light hearted.<br /> So here we have a few WIW from this week. Yesterday we went to Costco (and I was supposed to train for an hour at work, but that has been delayed - boo). I was attacked by a pile of bears, but then they let me bear hug them (note to self, the overhead sun shadows are not a good look with ruched clothing!)<br /> The previous day we headed to a casino for $1 tacos. I also had my black Guess jacket on, but got no pic, so here's a prior shot of it (pic 5). So, hardware of some kind on each and every item (including the zippered pants pockets) but it doesn't read as overload to me. Maybe I'm delusional, though :P<br /> And lastly, today I wore the 'paper bag' dress to drop off and pick up job applications. No, it's not interview attire, but it is appropriate enough in our town for meet and greet type of situations. So glad I went back and spent my $8 on it! </p> <p>Thanks for looking and any comments! </p>
