You weren’t cool back then if you wore crops , now I’m glad anything goes as far as jeans shapes and lengths. &nbsp;You nailed it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---jeanspiration#post-2303112 Thu, 19 Jan 2023 19:50:15 +0000 RobinF 2303112@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks great! Love the slouchy sweater!</p> <p>I can't wear wool against my skin, especially my neck, but can sometimes wear with another layer. I agree, when I get hot then they feel itchier.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---jeanspiration#post-2303111 Thu, 19 Jan 2023 19:40:06 +0000 MsMaven 2303111@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I became sensitive to wool, then cashmere, in my 50s. High quality, and expensive cashmere does work better. I wear long cotton or silk layers next to my skin and I'm ok.&nbsp;</p> <p>Scientists need to study this and find a solution! In the meantime, I'm working on adding more good quality cotton knits when I can find them. I'm going to check out Kotn.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---jeanspiration#post-2303108 Thu, 19 Jan 2023 19:08:11 +0000 LJP 2303108@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Really nice Helena !

I can't either, but cotton and velvet are fine- and the coats can do the heavy lifting on cold days! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---jeanspiration#post-2303097 Thu, 19 Jan 2023 18:20:46 +0000 Helena 2303097@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>AHhh Vildy, that might be it then ... as my internal thermometer is all over the place!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---jeanspiration#post-2303094 Thu, 19 Jan 2023 18:16:28 +0000 Vildy 2303094@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't have a wool allergy but do find that if I get the slightest bit too warm then the wool prickles. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---jeanspiration#post-2303092 Thu, 19 Jan 2023 18:11:36 +0000 slim cat 2303092@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Perfect- love the your look!

Angie, and the ends <i>just </i>miss the floor at the back so they won't get dirty.&nbsp;</p> <p>Yes, the wool thing is super-annoying - as I had put an effort into buying some decent quality merino wool pieces that were made to last (ironically enough I suppose *sigh*) ... it's not a true allergy I don't think, just a textural annoyance that I didn't used to have, and I just feel itchy in them. I have them tucked away for easy access as, in a pinch, they are wearable, but not really super-comfy, especially for working at home, etc. My skin seems to change constantly so hopefully at some point they'll be fine *crosses fingers* </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---jeanspiration#post-2303086 Thu, 19 Jan 2023 17:36:08 +0000 kkards 2303086@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>lol you even that the accessories down pat!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---jeanspiration#post-2303078 Thu, 19 Jan 2023 17:16:25 +0000 Cardiff girl 2303078@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is the perfect slouchy sweater!Charcial,non wool ,slouchy sweaters are hard to find.I have a wool sensitivity as well,life long ,means l can’t tolerate much other than cotton or cashmere jumpers which has become astronomically expensive this year.It’s a complete pain so l sympathise.l hope that yours clears up.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---jeanspiration#post-2303077 Thu, 19 Jan 2023 17:16:17 +0000 Angie 2303077@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER</p> <p>There's that on trend floor sweeping scrunch on the baggy jeans!&nbsp;</p> <p>Hope your skin irritation resolves itself.

You look great.&nbsp;</p> <p>I'm a HUGE fan of charcoal. It can be difficult to find, but it works really well on me, also.&nbsp;</p> <p>I'm sorry about your skin situation. So frustrating to have it happen in the midst of winter! But hopefully with layers you will be ok.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---jeanspiration#post-2303074 Thu, 19 Jan 2023 17:00:10 +0000 Carla 2303074@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a&nbsp;<i>really&nbsp;</i>great look! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---jeanspiration#post-2303073 Thu, 19 Jan 2023 16:51:20 +0000 CarolS 2303073@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nailed it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---jeanspiration#post-2303071 Thu, 19 Jan 2023 16:46:25 +0000 Irina 2303071@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>And this is a way to go!

Today looking to my style muse (queen neutrals and queen jeans in my book) Jennifer Aniston for simple styling inspiration (aka shameless lemming alert). How'd I do?</p> <p>This turtleneck is one of my new purchases from Kotn, and I'm delighted with the quality! As I've mentioned elsewhere, my merino wool capsule is in the holding zone due to a new and annoying skin sensitivity to wool So the Kotn sweaters, which are thick and cozy, I think will be workhorses. It's also the perfect deep charcoal which is a nice softer alternative to black while being just as versatile imo. Yay! </p>
