It's not a groundbreaking outfit, but there is something comforting in familiar items and silhouettes this time of year. I thought I'd post it in the spirit of keeping it real. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---in-with-the-mostly-old#post-1418379 Sat, 03 Jan 2015 21:48:28 +0000 catgirl 1418379@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the scarf! I've debated one from Shadowplay on Etsy - I may cave now. Nice to see older items - I'm in that kind of mood too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---in-with-the-mostly-old#post-1418371 Sat, 03 Jan 2015 21:24:27 +0000 Kristin L 1418371@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a fun print!

I've admired the wares from Slow Factory for a while, especially the series of scarves incorporating images from the Hubble. Well, I'm on their email list, so when they announced a 50% off sale, I bought myself a Christmas gift. </p> <p><a href="http://slowfactory.com/products/mystic-mountain-in-infrared" rel="nofollow">http://slowfactory.com/product.....n-infrared</a></p> <p>So here you have my old outfit, but with a new accessory (and recent purchase Coach bag). Democracy skinnies from 3+ yrs ago, Trouvé batwing sweater (3 yrs old), and Frye boots (6+ yrs). I tried wrapping my double-strap watch around my sleeve for a bit more bracelet-like effect. And the new scarf. Its a pretty simple outfit, but suited my low-key mood nicely. </p> <p>Feedback always welcome. </p>
