I always feel overwhelmed in oversized items but love how they look on others - I may need to play with proportions. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--obg-1/page/2#post-2151634 Tue, 03 Nov 2020 07:15:21 +0000 Sal 2151634@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a lovely luxe casual outfit, and your rules are interesting and wise.

The sweater works beautifully I'm so impressed that so many of the OBGs being posted are from stores like Zara and H&amp;M. Wardrobe longevity is the ultimate in sustainability. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--obg-1#post-2151526 Mon, 02 Nov 2020 23:56:19 +0000 Irina 2151526@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, Suz and Lisa P, you are too kind. These pants were my “fashion forward “ purchase, they are not everyone’s cup of tea :)<br />Glad I found much support for this outfit here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--obg-1#post-2151510 Mon, 02 Nov 2020 22:43:23 +0000 Anonymous 2151510@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I want the sweater and the pants ! Both look like classic winter pieces to me - and so luxuriously cozy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--obg-1#post-2151486 Mon, 02 Nov 2020 21:32:54 +0000 Suz 2151486@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh -- what a treat! I <b>love </b>this outfit on you. Very fashion-forward, intelligent elegance -- it's superb!&nbsp;</p> <p>I know what you mean about some colours not working quite as well once the hair changes colour. I found that brighter hues tend to work better than pastels...but this is a delicious sweater and well worth keeping. You've showed you can style it to perfection! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--obg-1#post-2151461 Mon, 02 Nov 2020 19:52:13 +0000 Kate 2151461@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a beautiful outfit!

Interesting and modern. You took good care of that sweater. It would make a perfect cold spring coverup with pastels like aqua or ivory. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--obg-1#post-2151427 Mon, 02 Nov 2020 18:39:51 +0000 JAileen 2151427@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think your outfit is lovely. &nbsp;I have grey hair and like pale clothes. &nbsp;But our coloring could be quite different, of course. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--obg-1#post-2151426 Mon, 02 Nov 2020 18:34:44 +0000 Irina 2151426@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>FashIntern, I just don’t like pale colors on me. And yet, I buy one a year. &nbsp;:)<br />I’m good with sticking to my color palette: black, navy, whites, some caramel and olive. Nevertheless, I like to add some unexpected color once in a while to keep boredom away </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--obg-1#post-2151423 Mon, 02 Nov 2020 18:21:48 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2151423@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's a wonderful look. Seems like it would be great with grey hair. Maybe you could post in a way that your head is turned or face covered? The sheer overlayer is a great way to do oversized without being swamped by it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--obg-1#post-2151421 Mon, 02 Nov 2020 18:15:52 +0000 nemosmom 2151421@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a cozy looking sweater, and I love it with the column of black! You should definitely post more! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--obg-1#post-2151418 Mon, 02 Nov 2020 18:03:55 +0000 Irina 2151418@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, kkards, I actually never wore this before I usually wear these very warm, lined pants with a navy cashmere sweater. Glad I found a new way to wear an old sweater. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--obg-1#post-2151409 Mon, 02 Nov 2020 17:38:16 +0000 kkards 2151409@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>oh, this outfit has an easy elegant vibe. i love that its dressy but not. its casual but not. this is that kind of outfit that works when you don't know how others will be dressed and you're walking the line between being over and under dressed!&nbsp;<br />and how fab that you used a sweater from 2012 to create it&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--obg-1#post-2151403 Mon, 02 Nov 2020 17:11:58 +0000 Angie 2151403@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wise, <b>Irina</b>, THAT is the way to do it. I have a 4ft 9 (145cm) friend who wears the COS avant-garde look sometimes.... and whacks it out of the ballpark.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Liesbeth</b>, HIGH FIVE on creating shoulder neck-point structure for our narrow shoulders :)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--obg-1#post-2151401 Mon, 02 Nov 2020 17:08:26 +0000 Irina 2151401@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, Angie. Standing proudly at 160 centimeters, I adore styles that are intended for tall people &nbsp;Had to make it work for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--obg-1#post-2151400 Mon, 02 Nov 2020 17:06:46 +0000 Liesbeth 2151400@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Irina, that totally makes sense. I use the 'structure around the shoulder-neck point' by Angie when in doubt nowadays :). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--obg-1#post-2151399 Mon, 02 Nov 2020 17:04:20 +0000 Irina 2151399@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Carla Originally I wore the sweater with bootcut jeans, then with slim pants and jeans and now with wide pants :)<br />the sweater is in OK shape, for years I wore it only on weekends, it was too casual for an office wear. Now, everything goes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--obg-1#post-2151398 Mon, 02 Nov 2020 17:01:56 +0000 Angie 2151398@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Irina</b>, I'm TOTALLY high fiving your "personal rules", or<i> personal figure flattering priorities</i> as I like to call them!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--obg-1#post-2151396 Mon, 02 Nov 2020 16:59:20 +0000 Carla 2151396@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>❤️ I can’t believe that sweater is 8 yo! &nbsp;Outfit looks very contemporary. &nbsp;<div><br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--obg-1#post-2151395 Mon, 02 Nov 2020 16:52:35 +0000 Irina 2151395@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you for your kind words. I don’t take pictures of my outfits, most of them are rather boring :)</p> <p>Liesbeth, I must have slim sleeves in my tops and refined footwear to feel comfortable in oversized clothes, which I wear a lot. These are my rules </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--obg-1#post-2151394 Mon, 02 Nov 2020 16:46:40 +0000 kellygirl 2151394@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh yes, post more! That sweater is divine. I can see why you love it. Beautiful outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--obg-1#post-2151393 Mon, 02 Nov 2020 16:44:51 +0000 Liesbeth 2151393@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my god I adore this outfit! This is the kind of thing I wish I could wear but I end up looking short and dumpy. I cannot imagine this shade not working with greying hair too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--obg-1#post-2151390 Mon, 02 Nov 2020 16:36:42 +0000 slim cat 2151390@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Pale mint sounds like my dream color in light colored sweaters - great find. Tank top versus plain camisole always wins in my book.<br />I'd love to have something similar for myself - I've got light grey sweater and I'm still looking for perfect wide legged pants &nbsp;. </p>
