I really like #3 and 4 the most, but all look great! I think "arty" also means something different to so many - I see arty as sort of that New York stereotype look, lots of black with deep red lipstick, or as you mentioned in the SW it can also mean loads of turquoise/silver jewelry and those skirts. In rural Texas, I think it means bling on the pockets of your jeans and flip flops with rhinestones ;-).</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---casual-outfits#post-1238759 Thu, 01 May 2014 14:52:47 +0000 rachylou 1238759@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the new stuff What colour are your loafers in #3?</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---casual-outfits#post-1238649 Thu, 01 May 2014 10:39:16 +0000 Joyce B 1238649@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looking great!

And what an interesting point about Domino. I really like the top in #1/2. And of course I am a sucker for the colour of the last top. I can imagine the silver clutch really popped in that outfit.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---casual-outfits#post-1238505 Thu, 01 May 2014 03:18:32 +0000 Sara L. 1238505@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thistle - These outfits were weekend outfits and taken later in the day then my normal work week photos. &nbsp;Domino is much needier first thing in the morning (even though she sleeps on the bed with me and sits on my lap when I'm up nursing the baby at 2 am)&nbsp;then she is later on. &nbsp;She's probably sleeping in a sunny spot somewhere.</p> <p>Annagybe - semi-tucking is an option that I usually forget about. &nbsp;I don't like to tuck much although I've been trying to do it more often...although, obviously, not with any of these outfits.&nbsp;</p> <p>Alaskagirl - playful may work. &nbsp;Since I live in the Southwest, Arty brings up visions of boho artists with large turquoise jewelry and&nbsp;colorful broomstick skirts with birkenstock sandals (one reason I will probably never see birkenstocks as fashionable). &nbsp;And lots and lots of patchouli, can't forget that.</p> <p>Aubergine - I'm happy you think I look effortless, although I don't really feel effortless. &nbsp;I guess I'm doing something right though since that is usually what I'm aiming for with my outfits.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---casual-outfits#post-1238476 Thu, 01 May 2014 02:55:13 +0000 Jaime 1238476@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice outfits!

You look happy and so put together in all of these. You have great casual style. Feminine and polished! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---casual-outfits#post-1238457 Thu, 01 May 2014 02:28:11 +0000 annagybe 1238457@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Do you semi-tuck? Especially for #4 and #5. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---casual-outfits#post-1238454 Thu, 01 May 2014 02:26:02 +0000 Deborah 1238454@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your outfits!&nbsp; And those oxfords look really good.&nbsp; Great choice. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---casual-outfits#post-1238452 Thu, 01 May 2014 02:21:24 +0000 Anonymous 1238452@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think playful definitely works! Or maybe effortless?</p> <p>Really like the crochet oxfords and the orchid top in #5 is a wonderful color for you. And I know what you mean about jewelry. Most of mine isn't really large or dramatic enough to show up well in pictures even though I wear at least earrings every day.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---casual-outfits#post-1238339 Thu, 01 May 2014 00:29:18 +0000 catgirl 1238339@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Playful?

Love the new jacket and the fun oxfords. But I think 3 is my favorite! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---casual-outfits#post-1238313 Thu, 01 May 2014 00:14:53 +0000 jackiec 1238313@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice casual outfits! My favs are 1 &amp; 4. I think that's a great utility jacket, and really love the scarf in 4! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---casual-outfits#post-1238227 Wed, 30 Apr 2014 23:35:00 +0000 Glory 1238227@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wonderful outfits Sara! I love the chevron black and white! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---casual-outfits#post-1237955 Wed, 30 Apr 2014 18:42:37 +0000 Aida 1237955@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very nice casual outfits Sara! I adore those crochet oxfords, I hope you get lots of use out of those cuties. #1-3 are great layered looks, and really like those color combos as well. #4 and 5 are simpler looks with great details that make each look, like the footwear, pants roll, and jewelry. Nice! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---casual-outfits#post-1237863 Wed, 30 Apr 2014 17:25:00 +0000 Alassë 1237863@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I always like seeing the two-tone shoes in #5. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---casual-outfits#post-1237811 Wed, 30 Apr 2014 16:22:05 +0000 Anonymous 1237811@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You're right, I do se a nice cohesion through your outfits and I do get a little bit of preppiness. I think 1,2 and 4 are my favorites. Great oxfords in 1. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---casual-outfits#post-1237808 Wed, 30 Apr 2014 16:19:12 +0000 Thistle 1237808@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look terrific! I especially like #2 and #3. </p> <p>Where is kitty?!?&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---casual-outfits#post-1237776 Wed, 30 Apr 2014 15:50:31 +0000 Sara L. 1237776@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here's a roundup of some casual outfits I've worn in the past several weeks.&nbsp; I&nbsp;think I'm really starting to get a feel for my style.&nbsp; My casual style is definitely different from my workday style although the two descriptors Sleek and Feminine apply to both.&nbsp; I haven't come up with a good third descriptor yet.&nbsp; Angie says Arty but that doesn't have good connotations for me.&nbsp; After some posts back and forth I understand&nbsp;what she means by the term - sort of a whimsical quality that I think is accurate but I need a term that resonates with me.&nbsp; My casual style is more preppy and incorporates more color than my workday style.&nbsp; I also almost always wear flat shoes with casual outfits.</p> <p>#1/2 - new light jacket from H&amp;M and new crochet oxfords.&nbsp; Usually I find oxfords too masculine but the crochet and light color keep these feminine enough for me.</p> <p>#3 - Tank with tiny florals, lavender cardigan, and blush clutch (worn with cross-body strap here.&nbsp; I liked the spring feel of this outfit.</p> <p>#4 - Crochet oxfords with patterned scarf.&nbsp; </p> <p>#5 - Bright tee with white jeans and wrap bracelet.&nbsp; I was using a silver leather&nbsp;clutch with this but forgot to get a picture with it.</p> <p>Unfortunately, most of my jewelry doesn't show up in photos very well.&nbsp; It's not quite dainty but not statement making enough to show up well in a full-length photo. I wear bracelets a lot in the summer but not a whole armful of them.</p> <p>Any comments or suggestions are more than welcome.&nbsp; Thanks for looking!</p>
