I'm loving the graphic contrast on you --- kudos to hubby! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---nye-christmas-presents-casual#post-807358 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 03:03:26 +0000 JulieJohn 807358@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sara - here's a link showing one way to tie a scarf as a vest, though the scarf isn't as large as yours.<br /> <a href="http://www.lovemaegan.com/2012/09/how-to-turn-scarf-into-vest-in-2-easy.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.lovemaegan.com/2012.....-easy.html</a></p> <p>I can't find a picture of another way, which is knotting two nearby corners to each other, then the other two to each other, and that makes sleeves that you can slip your arms into, with the majority of the scarf blousing out behind you.</p> <p>Have fun! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---nye-christmas-presents-casual#post-807289 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 01:25:51 +0000 Day Vies 807289@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really love #5. The scarf makes it pop -- especially with the painterly/organic pinks and yellows, such a nice contrast to the b/w graphic stripe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---nye-christmas-presents-casual#post-807081 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 22:18:30 +0000 Sara L. 807081@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for all the comments on wearing skinnies although I have a practical reason for wearing them so much. I have several pairs of bootcut jeans but I don't wear them very often on casual days when I know I'll be at home mostly. The reason being that they're all hemmed to wear with boots and I don't like the hems dragging when I walk around the house in socks. Skinnies scrunch up and don't drag.</p> <p>JulieJohn - I'm intrigued by your comment on making a topper out of the scarf. Do you have an example or a link?</p> <p>MaryK - Yes, I think we are scarf twins since this one is from Target too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---nye-christmas-presents-casual#post-806890 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 19:41:04 +0000 Transcona Shannon 806890@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Adore your NYE outfit - just the right amount of sparkle IMO! Your gifted scarf is just gorgeous - it has kind of a vintage vibe to it - looking forward to seeing how you incorporate it into your wardrobe. Love you in the striped BR sweater too. Great looks Sara! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---nye-christmas-presents-casual#post-806886 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 19:30:47 +0000 MsMary 806886@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are all just stellar! You really hit the sweet spot between festive and practical with your NYE outfit! And your sister really hit it out of the ballpark with your Christmas gift!</p> <p>I think we are scarf twins! I have the same one you are wearing in #5! Target, right? I love their scarves! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---nye-christmas-presents-casual#post-806859 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 18:54:42 +0000 Isis 806859@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great week! I really love #5---the pattern mix and color mix takes this outfit up to the next level! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---nye-christmas-presents-casual#post-806851 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 18:51:22 +0000 Kirti 806851@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The NYE outfit is so perfect! I love the winter white </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---nye-christmas-presents-casual#post-806768 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 16:53:44 +0000 JulieJohn 806768@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely outfits and I love your BR striped sweater. That Christmas scarf is huge! You should have fun finding ways to use that throughout the year. It could make a great faux-jacket topper in summer, with a few carefully placed knots! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---nye-christmas-presents-casual#post-806760 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 16:50:55 +0000 Susie 806760@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your casual looks! That scarf is so pretty and the BR sweater looks great on you. I agree with the others that you really rock the skinnies! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---nye-christmas-presents-casual#post-806753 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 16:43:54 +0000 Carole 806753@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All great outfits, Sara! We are BR sweater twins, just love mine and have been wearing it to death. I think I have the scarf you are wearing with it, too! How crazy is that?! Anyway, love that outfit on you and agree with Suz that you look fantastic in skinnies! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---nye-christmas-presents-casual#post-806752 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 16:39:47 +0000 RunnerChick 806752@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice outfits, all of them. I think the party outfit is my favorite as it looks simple and elegant without being too plain. And Suz is right; you look amazing in them skinnies. Nice! the scarf looks gorgeous - thanks for showing us the detail. Also, I like that you paired the stripe sweater with a colorful scarf - I would not have thought to do that, but now I will :-)</p> <p>Happy new year! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---nye-christmas-presents-casual#post-806733 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 15:58:02 +0000 Suz 806733@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love you in the BR sweater! That is such a favourite here. And you look super in everyone of these looks. You rock skinnies like nobody's business. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---nye-christmas-presents-casual#post-806706 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 15:33:00 +0000 rute 806706@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love outfit one! Perfect with a small dose of shine! Love the mix of patterns of 5! Great style! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---nye-christmas-presents-casual#post-806702 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 15:31:12 +0000 Sara L. 806702@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I"ve been mostly absent from the forum recently due to family obligations and general holiday busy-ness. Things are calming down again now. </p> <p>#1 - I hosted a small NYE party at my house and this is what I wore. I liked the sequined shirt for some festive sparkle but needed a casual outfit since half the guests were under the age of 7 :)<br /> #2 - The scarf was a Christmas present from my sister.<br /> #3 - Same scarf, hopefully you can see the picture on it.<br /> #4 - Casual outfit with oversized sweater for a cold day.<br /> #5 - Striped BR sweater that was a gift from my hubby.</p> <p>Thanks for looking and any comments or suggestions are more than welcome! </p>
