Velvet any time. Why not? I loved your title. We have also had third winter and could easily have a fourth winter in May. I can't put away boots yet or wool. Blush to the rescue! Now to find some blush weatherproof booties. nemosmom on "WIW - for third winter" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---for-third-winter#post-2017680 Wed, 03 Apr 2019 18:52:00 +0000 nemosmom 2017680@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ NOOO GO AWAY WINTER!!

Thought you'd get a laugh out of the exact same streetscape from my porch today - literally two mornings later. Birds are chirping and skies are blue. I don't rule out fourth winter though! Canadian weather is RIDICULOUS.

Boo  I have packed away all of my wools and winter fabrics - weather be damned. I just can't do it at it this time of year, regardless of the temps.  Whatever works to get us through this last push 'til spring  though   RainB on "WIW - for third winter" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---for-third-winter#post-2017536 Wed, 03 Apr 2019 03:41:44 +0000 RainB 2017536@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ The weather seems so strange to me as I sit here feeling hot and sweaty You look so lovely and polished.

Exactly so. The blush is a good way to lighten up for the longer days.

Your list of seasons makes me shudder though! jussie on "WIW - for third winter" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---for-third-winter#post-2017438 Tue, 02 Apr 2019 20:20:24 +0000 jussie 2017438@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You look beautiful and the velvet pants are perfect.

I quite like this time on the forum when we are all in transitional seasons so we can all wear a bit similar weights of clothing. In NZ it is well into autumn but still fairly warm so our summer clothes are having their last gasps! I got a tiny bit cold out at a meeting last night though.

Seems appropriate to the weather, but the satchel lightens things up considerably.

We are now in Spring of Deception I think. Two years ago I bought a linen Spring coat which has been worn exactly twice. I looked at it this morning and thought maybe I could put a cashmere turtleneck under it. Delusional, I know.... kkards on "WIW - for third winter" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---for-third-winter#post-2017378 Tue, 02 Apr 2019 16:32:30 +0000 kkards 2017378@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ love a little velvet to dress up an ordinary day!

Spring and Fall are a blink of an eye. You look very nice for such a wintery day. Velvet? Perfect. taylor on "WIW - for third winter" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---for-third-winter#post-2017370 Tue, 02 Apr 2019 15:21:39 +0000 taylor 2017370@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ The little fashionista was right on about the blush bag !

I think they are perfect  for your velvet!

Australia is like you, just swap winter for summer. I am still wearing my summer gear. I love the burgundy velvet pants and would be wearing multiple toppers given the weather. smittie on "WIW - for third winter" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---for-third-winter#post-2017339 Tue, 02 Apr 2019 13:16:56 +0000 smittie 2017339@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Oh I like your pants! Love the dark colours. I’m a fan of the darkness as it relates to clothes :-) Haha! I am suffering through Third Winter with you. If it’s any consolation (probably not) it’s a few degrees colder here! Anonymous on "WIW - for third winter" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---for-third-winter#post-2017338 Tue, 02 Apr 2019 13:10:53 +0000 Anonymous 2017338@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I think we have those seasons in the US too-but your snow makes me sad! I like the blush with the burgundy, and think velvet is fine anytime Maybe a blush coat? Helena on "WIW - for third winter" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---for-third-winter#post-2017334 Tue, 02 Apr 2019 13:00:06 +0000 Helena 2017334@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ If you can't beat it, get out your wintery pieces and enjoy them one last time! DD suggested using my blush satchel to lighten things up - I'll wear my blush winter scarf to match when I head out. What do you think? Too much for a regular day with the velvet? Too dark? How could I have added some contrast to this dark column. Please forgive my gray roots! Pic 2 - what we woke up to yesterday on my street - starting the melt a little thank goodness! Talk about an April fool's joke!
