Got the collective thumbs up. I liked it and didn't see a problem with it either. My husband finds it puzzling--he doesn't understand the point of it. I like it and don't need him to like it, especially since I'll wear it to work mostly and not so much on date night, so it's all good.</div><div><br /></div><div>I should wear it on a date and see if he says anything, though :P<br /></div></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---more-pants-than-dresses#post-2038790 Fri, 28 Jun 2019 14:54:40 +0000 JAileen 2038790@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m sorry to hear of your husband’s grandmother. </p> <p>All of your outfits look good, but I think the grey jumpsuit looks fab.

My husband's family is sparing with their updates (they're all on the West Coast right now, and we're on the East). I don't know how her husband is doing but this is the worst part of this, honestly. She lived a great long life and went quickly at the end, which is all anyone can ask for. But that her husband is still around to try to bear this is seems cruel.</div><div><br /></div><div>As of now we're not traveling out there; we expect a memorial service down the road.</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Christie</b>- the pineapple dress is awesome. My mom loved it on me. Boden does a good jersey. Go for it.</div><div><br /></div><div><b>suntiger </b>- this is true. They must use poorer fabric for linings than for the shell. I'm trying to get in shape so I'll hold it for now; I keep a very limited holding zone for standout items. Essentials are typically easier to replace when they stop fitting.<br /></div><br /><b>shevia </b>- I did win that scavenger hunt, too!</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---more-pants-than-dresses#post-2038760 Fri, 28 Jun 2019 13:00:10 +0000 RobinF 2038760@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfits, I particularly like the first few because they are similar the my summer work outfits :)&nbsp; New sandals are fun.</p> <p>Sorry for your loss, it'll be super tough on her husband.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---more-pants-than-dresses#post-2038751 Fri, 28 Jun 2019 11:35:07 +0000 lyn67 2038751@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love all&nbsp; your outfits-and am so am sorry for your loss!:-( </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---more-pants-than-dresses#post-2038710 Fri, 28 Jun 2019 01:22:52 +0000 Jaime 2038710@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm sorry about your family's loss. <br />You look smashing in the red trench but nothing beats picture 8 for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---more-pants-than-dresses#post-2038706 Fri, 28 Jun 2019 01:14:17 +0000 Anonymous 2038706@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So sorry to hear about your granny in law -hugs!<br /> Re skirt linings: they always shrink in my experience.

I hope the lovely outfits gave you some cheer as you hoped. <br /></div><div><br /></div><div>You have a cheerful, optimistic wardrobe which always makes me happy to see. This collection of sprightly prints, colors and cute shoes is just great. My absolute favorites are your two sassy jumpsuits! Also kills me how great you look in your sunhat, and I would love a Pride T and sandals like yours. <br /></div><div><br /></div><div>Cool pineapple dress...do you enjoy wearing it? I've considered Boden maxis but not bitten the bullet yet...<br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---more-pants-than-dresses#post-2038565 Thu, 27 Jun 2019 14:44:49 +0000 Christina F. 2038565@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>Hi everyone. It's been a sad time here as my husband's beloved Grammy passed away yesterday, at the age of 95. She was a remarkable human being. She and her husband were married 73 years or so, and his health has been even more fragile than hers (her illness was sudden). So we're worried about him too, naturally.<br /> </div><div><br /> </div><div>Anyway, I figured a spot of fashion would cheer me up a little.<br /> </div><div><br /> </div><div>I haven't totally failed at the dress challenge, but some days it was a simply question of whether I  had time to shave my legs in the morning. (My leg hair comes in pretty dark - my coloring is pretty light but I <i>am</i> Portuguese. I'm just glad my arm hair is light.) My pants came out more this month, as a result.<br /> </div><div><br /> </div><div>1-3 - Outfits worn earlier in June, when the weather was cooler. Funny to think about that now.</div><div><br /> </div><div>4. A skirt outfit. Sadly, the lining on the skirt was tighter than I remember it being, and I wasn't comfortable sitting down. I don't think I've gained much weight - could it have shrunk? Anyway, it's in the holding zone for now.</div><div><br /> </div><div>5. Kimono with a linen tee and my new Naturalizer sandals. The latter are a godsend this year - so comfy.<br /> </div><div><br /> </div><div>6. Another pants outfit, with waterfall cardigan.</div><div><br /> </div><div>7. Jeans and a striped top</div><div><br /> </div><div>8. Jumpsuit number one. Worn on a very hot day to do a scavenger hunt.<br /> </div><div><br /> </div><div>9. Another pants outfit</div><div><br /> </div><div>10. The jumpsuit my husband deemed "not sexy"</div><div><br /> </div><div>11. Finally a dress!</div><div><br /> </div><div>12-13. Today - my outfit for a pride celebration at work. Check out the leopards! I'm going to switch into a Pride tee (find below) for the party. I also have a rainbow hair clip to wear, plus I have on my oil slick Birkenstocks, which have a rainbow sheen.<br /> </div><div><br /> </div><div>Not shown: I did wear another dress when my mom was in town this past weekend (find below- pineapples!) but I didn't get to take a pic.</div><div><br /> </div><div>Photos to follow<br /> </div> </p>
