You look great—very pulled together, but not as if you’d then been set on a shelf like a China doll. Three cheers for actually living our lives! You make the dusty color of that sweater look good. Love the low contrast plaid lurking quirk in those pants. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---linen#post-2204895 Fri, 25 Jun 2021 10:07:20 +0000 lyn67 2204895@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeay, for aiming/doing ordinary&nbsp; in a positive way!

You look gorgeous. </p> <p>Shevia's response reminded me of a time when I was in Kyoto and had the very rare opportunity to see two Geisha's walking along the street. Not wanting to be obvious about taking a photo of them, I posed my young son, with them in the background. Just as I was taking the shot DH photobombed with a big smile "Don't you want me in it too?" and I missed the real target! I should of been gracious, but I think I said something like "Noooo".</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---linen#post-2204862 Fri, 25 Jun 2021 02:06:02 +0000 Irina 2204862@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, kellygirl!<br />Wow, Shevia, I didn’t expect anyone might want to take a picture of me!<br />Now I feel like I’m one of those fab ladies on IG.

If I were in a coffee shop watching people go by, you would be one I noticed. I might even take a picture of you using one of my family members as props in the foreground. (Yes, I do that when we travel.) So I agree with your principle, but you are not giving yourself enough credit. Love both outfits, if that is not clear! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---linen#post-2204850 Fri, 25 Jun 2021 00:58:21 +0000 kellygirl 2204850@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agreeing with everyone that this is elevated ordinary for sure!

Sorry about wrinkled clothes.&nbsp;<div>These are old linen pants from Massimo Dutti, very old linen shirt and a linen mix sweater from the last year BR collection. Not exactly a fashion statement. I looked at the pictures and thought: “I wish I looked more sophisticated “. Well, if I were more sophisticated woman, I would’ve had that kind of clothes. But I’m not. :)&nbsp;<br />So, this is an ode to ordinary - an ordinary, middle aged woman in ordinary clothes going about her ordinary business. I think we all should feel better about our ordinary outfits, including me. :)</div><div><br />Linen pants - old, Massimo Dutti<br />linen shirt - &nbsp;very old Gap<br />linen mix sweater- BR, 2020<br />red shoes - Everlane, 2021<br />light shoes - Massimo Dutti</div> </p>
