My loved-but- seldom worn piece is also seasonal. It is a leather skirt in a reddish brown mostly worn in fall. &nbsp;I should get a sweater and tights and wear it in winter.even though it is brown, a fall color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---pants#post-2338716 Fri, 15 Sep 2023 21:05:24 +0000 Angie 2338716@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You rock this, <b>Roberta</b>!</p> <p>It's actually quite a hard silhouette of blouse to look fab in - I've had it on many clients over the years and it's a tricky one! It's KILLER on you! Much better than on the model.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---pants#post-2338252 Mon, 11 Sep 2023 03:15:22 +0000 Zaeobi 2338252@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your new Zara linen blouse is lovely - YLF in that colour &amp; curved hem! Though I may be biased (as you'll soon see) </p> <p>My own 3 items would be:<br /> 1) <b> a Zara coppery chainmail top </b> (the slinky cowl drape makes the mesh feel 'elevated' - but perhaps too elevated for my casual lifestyle? lol)<br /> 2) <b> Peruvian Connection Dynasty Velveteen jeans </b> (I wear them more at the end of the year, since I don't own much red - or denim - so they're more cold weather appropriate).<br /> 3) <b>these Clarks bronze Pure Tone loafers </b> (useful as slip-on mules for house visits, but impractical in HK's current floods...) </p> <p>I do pull these 3 out occasionally to admire them (as per @sloper's teal shearling, which sounds divine btw!) but really I'm just patiently waiting for less flooding/ humidity &amp; more dressy winter events so that I can wear them again already </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---pants#post-2338120 Sat, 09 Sep 2023 23:16:45 +0000 Carol 2338120@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>cute outfit! I know Chicago--are you in Chicago proper? If you're like my relatives, you don't&nbsp; *need* a lot of winter layers--they throw on some jeans and a jacket and use their windshield scrapers with their bare hands!&nbsp;</p> <p>The pieces that I love, that don't get a lot of wear, are my scarves. Mostly because I don't take the time to iron them or tie them properly.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---pants#post-2338007 Fri, 08 Sep 2023 21:24:42 +0000 Barbara Diane 2338007@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>We’re having pleasant weather here-high 70’s to low 80’s, low humidity, cools off at night. I’m not looking forward to winter clothing, although, again, it doesn’t get that cold here either. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---pants#post-2338005 Fri, 08 Sep 2023 20:45:03 +0000 Dee 2338005@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay for some cooler weather just to change things up a bit. Nice casual combo <b>Roberta</b>, love how the shoes match your hair and your top.&nbsp;</p> <p>Sadly I have a few dresses that I love, but don’t really get the chance to wear much. I mean I could just go ahead and wear them anyways but the people around me would be asking me why I’m so dressed up, which kinda bothers me. They aren’t even that dressy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---pants#post-2337999 Fri, 08 Sep 2023 17:51:06 +0000 kellygirl 2337999@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this look--you have perfected polished casual! The golden mustard color is one of my faves and it looks spectacular on you. The proportions are just right!&nbsp; I don't know how you cold weather people do it. I could live with summer weather year round - layering is too much work.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---pants#post-2337997 Fri, 08 Sep 2023 16:39:06 +0000 Roberta 2337997@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A friend once told me her Aunt had a coat for every ten degree change in the weather - that's me. As Suz said, "the right weather AND occasion are required."</p> <p><b>Irina</b>, I adore that coat! It looks chartreuse on my screen, a fabulous color with denim. i have pants in that color, I must try them with a denim jacket.</p> <p><b>Suz</b>, both coat and vest are striking! Have you posted a pic in the vest?</p> <p><b>Olive Green</b>, the top is a few years old. I had to stitch up the front because it was so low and wearing a cami underneath defeated the linen aspect. I like Zara's fashion, but their cycle moves way too fast for me, as I have to debate every purchase for weeks. By the time I decide on something, it is long gone at Zara. But that is another post.</p> <p><b>Sisi</b>, I only have a few outliers myself. But I like the idea of a few things that are a universe unto themselves. Everything else is on regular repeat.</p> <p><b>Fab Nation,</b> thank you for the lovely compliments! They are very much appreciated. (heart eyes)</p> <p><i></i> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---pants#post-2337988 Fri, 08 Sep 2023 12:23:13 +0000 RobinF 2337988@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm in Michigan, so not far from you, and am not yet ready to give up my shorts. Luckily I think it is supposed to be a nice weekend so maybe a few more weeks of my summer clothes. </p> <p>Anyway, love your outfit. The top is a great color and the shoes still give it summer vibes. I struggle with the in-between season, especially since it is so short that I don't buy for it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---pants#post-2337987 Fri, 08 Sep 2023 12:05:58 +0000 Mirjana 2337987@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely outfit, beautiful Zara top. I love the color great on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---pants#post-2337984 Fri, 08 Sep 2023 11:44:08 +0000 lyn67 2337984@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love cognac so very rich for us blondes! A great and easy outfit esp that is linen-looks great with the jeans! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---pants#post-2337981 Fri, 08 Sep 2023 11:15:45 +0000 Olive Green 2337981@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love that top and went looking for it on Zara, I have never ordered from them and don’t recall being in one of their stores. Is their linen and cotton stuff pretty good?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---pants#post-2337976 Fri, 08 Sep 2023 07:31:57 +0000 Sisi 2337976@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like this outfit, it's modern and funny. I like the cut and the color of the blouse and the bi-color shoes are so interesting! YLF!&nbsp;<br />To answer your question, at present all my clothes are worn rather regularly. I probably have a boring wardrobe made of essentials! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---pants#post-2337970 Fri, 08 Sep 2023 03:39:23 +0000 Suz 2337970@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That top is smashing on you! No wonder you love it. Though I can see how, in your climate, it might not see a lot of action except at specific times of the year.&nbsp;</p> <p>I wear (or have worn) most of what I own quite regularly. But two items I love and only wear on occasion are below. The gilet is one of my absolute most beloved items -- but it requires just the right weather and situation to work. The trench has a tailored fit that isn't comfortable with the current oversized jackets and tops. I'm. hanging onto it though because the quality is great and so is the colour.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---pants#post-2337969 Fri, 08 Sep 2023 03:06:37 +0000 Irina 2337969@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m feeling exactly the same about coming winter - dreading it and a tiny bit excited to open bins with sweaters.&nbsp;<div>Love this color on you and how it works with denim.&nbsp;</div><div>I like my special occasion clothes that I don’t get to wear often. I also have this cotton coat It is in style and color that is not really me but I love it anyway. Posting an old photo without a head :)<br /><div><br /></div></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---pants#post-2337966 Fri, 08 Sep 2023 01:56:12 +0000 Jaime 2337966@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit - and terrific smile! I have more coats and jackets than days to wear them, or so it seems! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---pants#post-2337964 Fri, 08 Sep 2023 01:14:45 +0000 ChristelJ 2337964@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>Oh how wonderful to be able to wear pants, and tops that have sleeves!&nbsp; That top is indeed a great color, and the shoes bookend your hair so nicely. Well done, and enjoy the reunion!</div><div><br /></div><div>I miss all my sleeved tops and my beloved girlfriend jeans.<br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---pants#post-2337958 Thu, 07 Sep 2023 23:10:32 +0000 Helena 2337958@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh I love this ... simple, great fits, great colour. Perfect! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---pants#post-2337957 Thu, 07 Sep 2023 23:10:05 +0000 Sloper 2337957@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I live in Southern California - so very temperate (usually). &nbsp;<div>I adore sweaters and coats and hats and scarves - but rarely have the opportunity to wear them! &nbsp;I’ve sold and donated many items since I don’t need the dressier things anymore, and Covid (and other health issues) still keep me home-bound.</div><div><br /></div><div>I have a beautiful leather moto with teal shearling lining. &nbsp;A well-considered splurge. &nbsp;If the temps are low enough, and I have a reason to go anywhere - I certainly enjoy it. &nbsp;And frankly, I sometimes peak inside its garment bag and gaze adoringly at it.</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---pants#post-2337954 Thu, 07 Sep 2023 22:07:51 +0000 NancyW 2337954@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great, it is challenging to dress in those temperatures, especially as there may be a big difference between the high and low for the day. The shoes are wonderful! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---pants#post-2337953 Thu, 07 Sep 2023 22:04:21 +0000 Janet 2337953@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m jealous. I’m wearing my lightest dresses and skirts because it’s near 100 every day the last few days, and humid. I’m so over it! </p> <p>But more importantly — you look great! That top looks so good on you — it’s a great color and has a lovely minimalist vibe. The jeans fit is nice too.</p> <p>I have too many things that I love but need more wearing opportunities. I am glad I invested in one more floaty skirt this summer because that’s becoming my summer jam, more so than shorts. But I wish I was getting more wear from my fab jackets! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---pants#post-2337951 Thu, 07 Sep 2023 21:34:48 +0000 Roberta 2337951@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The exclamation point is because I have not had pants on for MONTHS. It felt weird.</p> <p>It has cooled off, and I'm torn between dreading all the layers one must put on in a Chicago winter, and looking forward to opening the bins of sweaters to see what I have forgotten about.</p> <p>My main point is that these are items that don't get out often, but that I would never give away. The Kelsi Dagger espadrilles, which are a little big, are perfect with a few outfits (and cool-ish weather). The Zara linen top is a little too long with shorts, but is a great color, and again, just right in the low 70s. The only Zara item I own!</p> <p>What do you own that doesn't get much wear but you love to death? Show and tell! </p>
