Yes, the WWII episodes are our favorites too! Plus they have a little more fun with it, such as having the Nazis be very sarcastic with each other, and making the Amazon queen a bit head-in-the-clouds. Imagine a comic teaching us something about how to be great women! Thanks for your feedback. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---ode-to-wonder-woman#post-667358 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 03:41:53 +0000 Nadya 667358@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the story! I was a huge fan of the show and the WWII episodes were the best. I love how you've interpreted the look into a modern outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---ode-to-wonder-woman#post-667249 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 01:25:22 +0000 JulieJohn 667249@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Victoria! And thanks for the link. That should work to mix things up. I'm interested in trying as many scarf looks as possible. Loved your wrist scarf today, super fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---ode-to-wonder-woman#post-667244 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 01:20:12 +0000 Victoria 667244@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the outfit looks great! By the way, if you feel that scarf is too bulky tied under the collar, try to tie it inside the collar<br /> <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-buttondown-with-scarf-is-this-an-older-look" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....older-look</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---ode-to-wonder-woman#post-667213 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 00:15:03 +0000 JulieJohn 667213@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Rae! I am flattered because I admire your style so much!</p> <p>Maybe the equestrian scarf gave me a bit o' the military, or at least regimented feel. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---ode-to-wonder-woman#post-667207 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 00:10:52 +0000 rae 667207@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ah, I love it! Go femininspiration! I am impressed that you captured the vibe without the full on military jacket look. The new skirt looks great, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---ode-to-wonder-woman#post-667198 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 00:01:13 +0000 JulieJohn 667198@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Sarah. It's a handkerchief-weight blouse, which sometimes looks terrible without a bra, and untucked, which is how I usually wear it. I guess I have to fall in love with it now that I've figured out how to wear it well. ha ha on me </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---ode-to-wonder-woman#post-667195 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 23:59:30 +0000 sarah 667195@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your inspiration ; )</p> <p>That blouse is gorgeous! I adore it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---ode-to-wonder-woman#post-667172 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 23:23:37 +0000 JulieJohn 667172@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lyn D - your reply boosted me right to the moon! My pattern mixing was scary at first but I embraced it and now I'm glad I did. Wow, sex_bomb? That comment is kindness itself, and warms my heart. THANK YOU! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---ode-to-wonder-woman#post-667162 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 23:10:06 +0000 Lyn D. 667162@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>JJ- great pattern mixing with the scarf and blouse!<br /> AND a SEX_BOMB skirt to boot! You will get lots of wear from this black skirt, and I love the way you have tucked the top for a FAB silhouette! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---ode-to-wonder-woman#post-667146 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 22:29:17 +0000 JulieJohn 667146@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My husband and I were watching Wonder Woman, Season 1, and she was looking crisp and cute in her WWII US Navy Waves uniform. He said, "you should try to come up with an outfit like that" Great inspiration!</p> <p>That night I laid in bed planning it out in my head. I drifted to sleep with dreams of a pencil skirt in a dark color, preferably in a mid-weight that could camouflage my less than perfect hiny. But where would I find such a treasure?</p> <p>I kid you not, the next day velvetychocolate posted about an Ellen Tracy pencil skirt at Costco ($12). I went, I shopped, I styled. I give you "Yeoman Diana Prince, circa 1942".</p> <p>Shirt - Talbot's<br /> Scarf - Vintage family thing from the 60s<br /> Skirt - Ellen Tracy Ponte Knit from Costco ($12 yay!)<br /> Shoes - Payless I believe<br /> Bun Diddly - Of unknown provenance</p> <p>What you can't see:<br /> * The scarf actually sports dark navy and the skirt is black. Yikes!<br /> * Bike shorts underneath for comfort<br /> * Scarf is safety-pinned to my blouse, not tied around my neck cause it was too chunky under the collar.</p> <p>Sorry, can't find a great pic of Lynda Carter / the uniform, sigh. Just take my word it's the bee's knees.</p> <p>Thanks for looking, comments welcome! Enjoy your day you fabulous femmes! </p>
