And I forgot to comment on your cat. What a regal presence and beauty! Roberta on "WIW - thrifts!" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---thrifts#post-2379890 Fri, 07 Feb 2025 16:23:52 +0000 Roberta 2379890@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Angie, you're right, a camisole is a great idea! I must buy one. :-) Sharan, I had cataract suurgery in November, and now I only need glasses for reading. It is completely amazing to look out the window and see for miles so clearly. Joyce, they're Camper Twins from a few years ago. Still in stock <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.shooos.com/camper-twins-multicolor-k201175-012">here</a> at a great price if you are interested. Dee and Suz, my Boop has eyes like opals, doesn't he? SarahD8, he IS sort of thrifted! My son had two cats when he moved back to Illinois; they didn't get along and I was sadly without a pet, so I nabbed him. Thanks everyone! I really appreciate the support from this group.

Your longer hair looks terrific too Also love your kitty's eyes in the photo 7.

(I like this expression that I learned from YLF - I am not English mother tongue). I cannot pick a favourite. Maybe the furry accessory in # 7 .  Star (Lise) on "WIW - thrifts!" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---thrifts#post-2379856 Fri, 07 Feb 2025 08:14:23 +0000 Star (Lise) 2379856@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Your handsome beast steals the show.  What a beauty!  Love your finds.  Especially the green and pink sweaters, and the dress. Suz on "WIW - thrifts!" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---thrifts#post-2379842 Fri, 07 Feb 2025 04:08:54 +0000 Suz 2379842@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Oh my -- that IS a handsome beast! What gorgeous eyes!  I also LOVE the green sweater in #1. It looks so fab on you! It's great with the grey and the boots. I like the pink EF sweater also.  The burgundy dress is also amazing. What beautiful boots those are -- they definitely deserve to be showcased.  And the Uniglo vest is also great.  I also see the appeal of printed sweaters especially ones you can layer under something if need be, and I really love the pattern and colours on the one you got.  Lisa on "WIW - thrifts!" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---thrifts#post-2379826 Fri, 07 Feb 2025 00:42:54 +0000 Lisa 2379826@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ What a fun collection of new to you items, you've got an excellent eye for picking flattering colors and prints! *pets handsome beast* #1 - Great lime color on you and it's lovely paired with the grey pants and patterend boots! #2 - Beautiful printed sweater and fun colorblocked sneakers. #3 - Dress is a perfect match with the burgundy boots, which are also lovely, you should wear them more often! #4 - Pretty pink and white combo, perfect for spring. #5 - Puffer vest is a perfect fit and looks very versatile. #6 - Drapey blue top is another great color, and worked so well with the vest.

I really like the rich, bright color palette you are developing here -- feels happy-luxe. Is the handsome beast also "thrifted"? <3 <3 <3 Jaime on "WIW - thrifts!" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---thrifts#post-2379816 Fri, 07 Feb 2025 00:03:44 +0000 Jaime 2379816@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Great finds! Your hair is looking particularly nice too! The pink sweater and burgundy dress are some of my favorite colors and look wonderful on you. The puffer vest is bound to be a workhorse! Angie on "WIW - thrifts!" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---thrifts#post-2379801 Thu, 06 Feb 2025 20:06:49 +0000 Angie 2379801@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ WOW! You did splendidly, Roberta!  Hello handsome beast! Gorgeous markings. First of all, I am loving your longer and darker short hair :) Those burgundy boots are KILLER, and work beautifully with the new sweater dress!  The patterned sweater is AWESOME! Have you tried a camisole and necklace instead of the tee?  You look fab in teal, and the vest is a great layering piece over it. You rock the wide pants and snakeskin booties with the apple green sweater in #1! You are ready for Spring in #4! Lovely pieces. ENJOY!

My favorites are #1 &4.  Firecracker (Sharan) on "WIW - thrifts!" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---thrifts#post-2379794 Thu, 06 Feb 2025 19:36:01 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2379794@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <div>Wow, what a fab bunch of outfits, Roberta. You are rocking every single look. I love the patterned sweater, and your red Converse to coordinate with it. The dress, scarf, and boots outfit is especially gorgeous on you--yay for a find that lets you showcase those chic boots! </div><div>Do you wear contacts? Missing your statement specs, but you also look great without them. Can't go wrong (unless you're running into furniture, as I would be, without mine--hahaha!) </div> Cookie on "WIW - thrifts!" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---thrifts#post-2379792 Thu, 06 Feb 2025 18:55:03 +0000 Cookie 2379792@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Thrifting high five! I actually really like the cuffs on that print sweater. Also love the texture on the pink sweater … and the hilarious expression on your cat’s face! Roberta on "WIW - thrifts!" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---thrifts#post-2379791 Thu, 06 Feb 2025 18:36:26 +0000 Roberta 2379791@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I am REALLY TRYING not to buy (much) new this year. I haven't had much success in thrift stores, but I have found nice used items on eBay and Poshmark. I am very cautious about measurements and buying familiar brands. <ol> <li>Pale green Talbots cashmere sweater. The color looked more acid on my screen, but I still like it. </li> <li>Talbots merino sweater. Not as keen on the cuffs and waistband, but I love the print and colors. Thin enough to wear under another layer. </li> <li>I really needed a winter dress, and this Limited sweater dress goes perfectly with my burgundy boots, which never get enough love. </li> <li>Hot pink Eileen Fisher wool pullover. VERY happy with this! </li> <li>My favorite! A Uniqlo herringbone puffer vest that is like wearing warm air. Kudos to RunCarla, my influencer.</li> <li>The under layer - a drapey Lucky Brand cotton/rayon pullover. And a different blue from all my navy tops.</li> </ol> Oh, and my handsome beast. Thanks for reading, friends!
