After viewing it I was bemoaning the state of my love life. She had a very apt observation, "<span>Rodolfo was an a**."</p> <p>Nice outfit. I like the pants.</span> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---la-boheme/page/2#post-1241226 Sun, 04 May 2014 02:08:37 +0000 Jaime 1241226@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yikes! Am I the only one that starts a bit to see their own post? Ok weirdness aside, the pants are back in the closet and will be reconsidered. They are by the Israeli designer <a rel="nofollow" href="http://http://www.mayanegri.com/">Maya Negri</a> (second hand) by the way. Thank you all for providing the objective eyes I clearly lack when I see myself.&nbsp;</p> <p>Beth Ann it is such a delight having you comment on operas.

Love those killer trousers - with pleats I see. Yuuuuuumy.&nbsp;Blue and black is a great combination, especially with your funky salt 'n pepper 'do.&nbsp;</p> <p>And you with your kids in your hat is simply delightful. xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---la-boheme#post-1239822 Fri, 02 May 2014 14:33:00 +0000 Jaime 1239822@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My goodness what a lovely surprise! I did think the trousers looked ok in the mirror&nbsp;but somehow did not like how they looked in&nbsp;the pictures. I will certainly reconsider based on all of your sweet comments.</p> <p>The second outfit was a PPL failure - they are too wide to be as long as they are on me, but I think will work fine shorter.&nbsp;</p> <p>Ornella and Aubergine it is very reassuring to know I am not the only one with shoulder bag issues! Ornella thank you for your sweet comments about our home - you are invited to visit any time!</p> <p>Viva, Krishnidoux&nbsp;and Ceit thank for the hair boost!&nbsp;</p> <p>Suz, that bag literally fell on me at the thrift store - I picked it up and did a double take.&nbsp;</p> <p>April the opera was fantastic. We bought three tickets this season and hope to buy a bigger subscription next year.</p> <p>Thank you everyone, I&nbsp;truly appreciate each of your lovely&nbsp;comments about me and my kids. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---la-boheme#post-1239812 Fri, 02 May 2014 14:17:02 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1239812@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Are you sure you want to purge these trousers Shevia? They look incredible on you. I don't see these outfits as fails AT ALL. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---la-boheme#post-1239724 Fri, 02 May 2014 12:15:17 +0000 missvee 1239724@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, I love the trousers, and I hope you reconsider purging them. What about trying them with a denim jacket, plain white tee, and casual sandals? The backdrops to your photos are wonderful, btw. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---la-boheme#post-1239723 Fri, 02 May 2014 12:10:40 +0000 Anonymous 1239723@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't see any fails!

They look interesting and also emphasize your small waist in an ultra-flattering way. And my bags always do that with my shirts too.</p> <p>#4 is just such a fun picture! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---la-boheme#post-1239690 Fri, 02 May 2014 10:58:42 +0000 April 1239690@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Che gelida manina...</p> <p>:)</p> <p>So envious. &nbsp;I love La Boheme, and you look smashing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---la-boheme#post-1239678 Fri, 02 May 2014 10:34:23 +0000 Ornella 1239678@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For me the star of the show are the pants, they look so interesting and perfect for occasions that call&nbsp;dressing up. The high wide waist has me drooling basically.</p> <p>The top you chose is lovely (a bit boheme-ina vibe ?)&nbsp;and goes great with your hair. Bags always pull my tops too, so you have my sympathy - but at least I've really noticed it on&nbsp;my WIW photos so now at least sometimes remember to straighten things before being photographed - all while posing as spontaneously as possible :-D</p> <p>Your entourage is charming as usual (looks like one DD's hand is injured, I hope nothing serious), you look great and it's once to see the hat.</p> <p>Btw, the shadows in the last photo make a nice graphic background too. And since I'm on the home decorating ideas kick at the moment, I must add how warm, homely and inviting&nbsp;your home looks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---la-boheme#post-1239672 Fri, 02 May 2014 10:21:12 +0000 viva 1239672@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not sure about the purge either -- those pants look great.
