Spring-y, bright, cheerful and matches your smile.</p> <p>The title made me laugh really loud. When I started posting WIWs I had a week when I was styling my cardigans, which I then posted for comments. </p> <p>You know what Una said? I reminded her of Mrs. Clinton! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---barbara-bush-impersonator#post-870027 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 09:55:44 +0000 Ingunn 870027@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love that color on you, Thistle! The title made me expect something quite different. You look great in this, and the shoes are a fab accessory. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---barbara-bush-impersonator#post-869945 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 04:19:24 +0000 columbine(erin) 869945@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hang onto this sweater, you can make it work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---barbara-bush-impersonator#post-869941 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 04:16:10 +0000 unfrumped 869941@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Where's Bar? You loom great. I like the idea of adding a necklace in a darker color.but maybe still tonal in the blue family.. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---barbara-bush-impersonator#post-869862 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 03:29:29 +0000 Nicole D 869862@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agree with other members: No pearls plus animal print shoes = no Babs. You look fresh and pretty in mint. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---barbara-bush-impersonator#post-869858 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 03:28:48 +0000 Kalli 869858@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Barbara Bush would be copycating your look vice versa. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---barbara-bush-impersonator#post-869853 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 03:25:13 +0000 Debora 869853@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---barbara-bush-impersonator#post-869849 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 03:20:54 +0000 Day Vies 869849@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>There are no signature pearls! I love this mint tonal look. Very spring. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---barbara-bush-impersonator#post-869836 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 03:10:20 +0000 missvee 869836@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thistle, check out the blog District of Chic. Today she's wearing a similar sweater over a LBD and it's a great look.<br /> I love this colour on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---barbara-bush-impersonator#post-869753 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 02:28:18 +0000 Beth Ann 869753@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hear Barb was tough -- no one messed with her!</p> <p>That said, you bear little resemblance, and you're missing the pearls! I love the footwear and the soft, on trend color.</p> <p>I could see this with light bottoms, too. I think you could wear them really well, but I wouldn't have dared until my kids were school aged --- I so understand the "little fingers" years! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---barbara-bush-impersonator#post-869741 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 02:23:19 +0000 Thistle 869741@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aida- you are right. I guess I have been nervous about looking too young or too old doing it. Still, it is a great idea and my magpie gene is singing happily in response! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---barbara-bush-impersonator#post-869740 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 02:22:53 +0000 Angie 869740@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look GREAT! And do yourself short. Really. The footwear kicks the whole outfit up a notch and I am very proud of you. Well done! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---barbara-bush-impersonator#post-869711 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 02:11:08 +0000 Aida 869711@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very pretty! Thistle you wear a lot of camisoles for those deeper necklines, I bet you'd get some good use out of having a few with embellished tops. Say lace, or beads, or sequins etc. They could add some punch to outfits without cluttering up necklines! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---barbara-bush-impersonator#post-869659 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 01:51:55 +0000 Tina.b 869659@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stunning colour on you Thistle, beautiful for spring. Love the contrast edging on the sweater. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---barbara-bush-impersonator#post-869651 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 01:47:40 +0000 Jaime 869651@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The color is so pretty on you that I will forgive you for making me almost spit out my coffee with your post title! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---barbara-bush-impersonator#post-869648 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 01:45:42 +0000 Suz 869648@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thistle, you look great. And you get the YLF award for sunniest, funniest attitude today!!! </p> <p>This colour is so pretty on you and I really think you've done a great job on the outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---barbara-bush-impersonator#post-869625 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 01:25:06 +0000 Thistle 869625@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>hehe, I actually put a real pearl necklace on (a gift from DH when we got married), but I couldn't pull off the irony. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---barbara-bush-impersonator#post-869621 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 01:22:13 +0000 Marley 869621@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was totally expecting to see you wearing a faux pearl necklace when I read your thread title! LOL<br /> This color is great on you and I love the tonal element! I'm wondering if you tried a necklace with it - instead of the darker cami underneath? - it might fill up some of the chest/neck space. I LOVE those shoes - you need to wear them all the time! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---barbara-bush-impersonator#post-869616 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 01:18:44 +0000 Deborah 869616@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You many not have actually replicated the pinned outfit, but you have definitely made the outfit 'yours'. Thistle the colours are lovely and the leopard flats are just so perfect here. Very chic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---barbara-bush-impersonator#post-869598 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 01:05:11 +0000 JulieJohn 869598@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ha, your title made me giggle. Your outfit is not matronly in the least, no Barb in sight. </p> <p>You look lovely in this color, your smile is contagious, and I adore the leopard flats mixed with the robin's egg blue. Nice touch having a matching wall handy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---barbara-bush-impersonator#post-869587 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 00:51:56 +0000 Krista 869587@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's a 10 in my books! That color is awesome on you and I love the peek of leopard flats on your feet! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---barbara-bush-impersonator#post-869584 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 00:49:47 +0000 Anonymous 869584@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I think you almost nailed it. I think you can definitely make that sweater work! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---barbara-bush-impersonator#post-869565 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 00:30:36 +0000 Mona 869565@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful tonal outfit. I really like the leopard shoes with this pastel blue. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---barbara-bush-impersonator#post-869563 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 00:28:13 +0000 Thistle 869563@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So, on this thread I asked for some help styling a beautifully colored cashmere cardi. <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kt-any-hope" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kt-any-hope</a></p> <p>AJ gave me a great pin I tried to replicate:<a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/18225573462139254/" rel="nofollow">http://pinterest.com/pin/18225573462139254/</a></p> <p>I wore dark trousers instead of dark wash jeans. My tonal top did not have embellishment, so I wore another cami underneath in a darker shade. </p> <p>While I definately did NOT capture the cool chic of the woman in AJs pin, I at least learned I really like tonal combinations. Until YLF, I would have thought I didn't match.</p> <p>I might try again with the sweater. It is so soft and comfy and I both love the color and feel like it is flattering. </p>
