You wear taupe so well and your style is seemingly effortlessly cohesive and chic. I love a classic topcoat, and it looks so good with the cropped pants, sneakers, and tote. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---modern-classic#post-2344475 Thu, 16 Nov 2023 15:25:27 +0000 Anonymous 2344475@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fabulous, Irina.

Very arty/louche to my eye. Extends to the oversized glasses and the great pearl hoops.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---modern-classic#post-2344442 Thu, 16 Nov 2023 09:00:56 +0000 lyn67 2344442@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanx for showing us how to do a true trendy classis outfit(as Suz said). And, thanx for your last sentence in your last comment, too.&nbsp;<i>&nbsp;"Dress pants plus sneakers</i> (but these particular sock sneaker boots make all the BIG difference, though),<i>&nbsp;jeans and oxfords, these sort of things.</i>"&nbsp; It makes so much sense and so easy all. I do these sometimes unconsciously--as per some kind of&nbsp;<i><b>unexpected juxtaposition</b>.&nbsp;</i><i></i>But is is always great to have a formula on hand!:-) BTW loved your outfit head to toe and to be sure the pearl earings are really a statement and a staple there-so a great signature for You now! Enjoy!:-)<i></i> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---modern-classic#post-2344429 Thu, 16 Nov 2023 04:01:34 +0000 Irina 2344429@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Suz</b>, thanks! &nbsp;I see only one true classic piece here - a coat. The turtleneck is too loose, pants are cropped and too wide, a scarf is a scarf.&nbsp;<br /><div>When I get dressed, I don’t think classic plus trendy classic. For my comfort, an outfit should combine “business” attire with casual items. Dress pants plus sneakers, jeans and oxfords, these sort of things.&nbsp;</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---modern-classic#post-2344427 Thu, 16 Nov 2023 03:51:24 +0000 Suz 2344427@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous outfit and to my eye a mix of true classic with trendy classic and I would call the outfit overall trendy classic!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---modern-classic#post-2344423 Thu, 16 Nov 2023 03:17:24 +0000 Irina 2344423@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Sharan, SarahD8, Jaime, kkards, thanks!<br /></b></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---modern-classic#post-2344420 Thu, 16 Nov 2023 02:19:08 +0000 Jaime 2344420@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stunning! Classic but also very modern. The silhouette of the trousers, and the scarf, earrings and glasses make the classic coat completely current. Just beautiful. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---modern-classic#post-2344412 Thu, 16 Nov 2023 00:21:00 +0000 kkards 2344412@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just want to say the easy yet sophisticated way you’ve worn the scarf is just sooo good. &nbsp;</p> <div>Modern and classic and totally fab&nbsp;</div></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---modern-classic#post-2344402 Wed, 15 Nov 2023 23:47:43 +0000 SarahD8 2344402@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I echo Firecracker -- elegant! For me the pieces in order from most to least classic are turtleneck, coat, pants, scarf, shoes. But the overall effect is as ever on point. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---modern-classic#post-2344401 Wed, 15 Nov 2023 23:32:58 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2344401@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a beautifully elegant outfit.

You, ladies, are too kind!<br /><b>Angie, thanks!&nbsp;</b>the coat’s cut is classic, straight, one hidden button.

Urban cool is definitely a goal!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---modern-classic#post-2344393 Wed, 15 Nov 2023 20:46:55 +0000 Carla 2344393@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don’t know if you’ve adopted the 3 word fashion descriptor, but I would submit: trendy classic minimalist. &nbsp;You are the epitome of urban cool,&nbsp;<b>Irina!</b> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---modern-classic#post-2344391 Wed, 15 Nov 2023 20:36:11 +0000 BlueJay 2344391@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You always look fashion forward and chic, <b>Irina!</b> I like <b>Angie's analysis</b> of your outfit to understand today's post better.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---modern-classic#post-2344387 Wed, 15 Nov 2023 19:59:01 +0000 Dee 2344387@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looking good in your trendy classics as Angie has suggested. You’ve got a nice mix of true classics and trendy items. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---modern-classic#post-2344386 Wed, 15 Nov 2023 19:48:40 +0000 Roberta 2344386@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your style and features remind me so much of the actress Camille Cottin (star of Call My Agent), who I think is so strong and beautiful. And funny! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---modern-classic#post-2344382 Wed, 15 Nov 2023 19:26:34 +0000 Angie 2344382@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>FABULOUS! Soooooo <b>Irina </b>!&nbsp;</p> <p>I vote Trendy Classic :)&nbsp;</p> <p>Sweater is classic, pants are on trend, palette is classic, sneakers are on trend, tote and scarf are classic, eyewear is on trend, and can't see the coat well enough to determine its classic or trendiness!</p> <p>My mirror needs dusting too....</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---modern-classic#post-2344376 Wed, 15 Nov 2023 19:07:35 +0000 Helena 2344376@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love love love your chic and minimal style. So good! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---modern-classic#post-2344373 Wed, 15 Nov 2023 19:05:26 +0000 Irina 2344373@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nothing special or interesting but I thought I’d post my today’s office outfit since it’s on point with Angie’s post. Modern classic is still very much the backbone of my wardrobe.&nbsp;<div>A warmish day today, so I was “airing out” my wool coat. It’s fits well but maybe a bit too classic for my current preference, so I don’t wear it as often as I should. Still, I like it.&nbsp;</div><div>Other pieces: thin wool pleated, cropped pants - pants and a coat are from COS. A taupe cashmere turtleneck - Uniqlo. Black, navy and grey colorblock cashmere scarf is also from COS. Black sock boots - Acne Studios.&nbsp;</div><div>Two things I noticed:<br />1. I don’t take many selfies now and forgot to look straight!<br />Also forgot to dust off mirrors in our spare bedroom! :)</div> </p>
