You put your own spin on it and it's perfect for you! I didn't even notice the zippers - totally works! Love the green bag! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0607-from-yardwork-to-errands#post-1273164 Mon, 09 Jun 2014 01:30:27 +0000 Jaime 1273164@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay hat!

Great outfit, and I like how you switched out parts for different activities. I do that a lot, too. But I don't do yard work--haha! Fun hat, and the jacket just totally makes the look for me, for your grocery run. </p> <p>Oh, and I didn't notice the zippers, either, so they seem to work just fine rolled.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0607-from-yardwork-to-errands#post-1273146 Mon, 09 Jun 2014 01:11:13 +0000 Windchime 1273146@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I enjoyed reading how you turned your gardening outfit into an errands outfit without needing to completely change your clothes. I do a lot of gardening and know how grubby my clothes can become out there! Your hat and crop jacket look super cute on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0607-from-yardwork-to-errands#post-1273142 Mon, 09 Jun 2014 01:03:23 +0000 Aida 1273142@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks ladies! This is one of the few hats I have, and I don't wear it as much as I probably should. Also, great observations on the light and soft colors --&nbsp;that probably played a big role in my happy factor.</p> <p>Gracie, I don't mind horizontal lines much. The laces need to be left loose like that because I have very high insteps, if it were any narrower the shoe would pinch. It's more an issue of the thick white soles; same issue I have with platform shoes for myself. I just like my&nbsp;shoes to be as low profile as possible.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0607-from-yardwork-to-errands#post-1273136 Mon, 09 Jun 2014 00:51:30 +0000 Gracie 1273136@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fresh and fabulous and what a great hat!&nbsp; Sneakers don't look chunky at all, they look a bit loose at the top, maybe lacing them a bit snugger would narrow them? Maybe your looking down at the horizontal lines of the laces are giving you the impression of more width? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0607-from-yardwork-to-errands#post-1273120 Mon, 09 Jun 2014 00:26:29 +0000 Kristin L 1273120@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great relaxed capsule. You look great in those softer colors! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0607-from-yardwork-to-errands#post-1273112 Mon, 09 Jun 2014 00:17:21 +0000 Karie 1273112@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this! That hat is all kinds of fabulous! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0607-from-yardwork-to-errands#post-1273087 Sun, 08 Jun 2014 23:34:05 +0000 Diana 1273087@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Perfect for your weekend capsule! The soft colors are really lovely. </p> <p>Love the hat! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0607-from-yardwork-to-errands#post-1273056 Sun, 08 Jun 2014 23:01:47 +0000 Suz 1273056@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is all kinds of wonderful!! You look so adorable in that hat with your mischievous smile. Love it!&nbsp;</p> <p>Also love the soft blues and greys. The sneakers look terrific to my eye.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0607-from-yardwork-to-errands#post-1273051 Sun, 08 Jun 2014 22:58:48 +0000 Aida 1273051@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Whoops didn't mean to yay/nay, was trying to show in blog ^^ Thank you Angie, I just need to wear them more I think. The pale yellow slip-on pair below&nbsp;should arrive tomorrow morning which I really hope works, too.</p> <p>Thanks Mona!</p> <p>Gigi, ah yeah I know&nbsp;there are certainly actual chunky sneakers out there but I always wear super low-profile refined shoes so even a little bit of that wide white sole feels like a whole lot on me. Proper athletic shoes really give me trouble! But I only wear those for exercise so it's not too bad ;)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0607-from-yardwork-to-errands#post-1273045 Sun, 08 Jun 2014 22:53:31 +0000 Gigi 1273045@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looking good, Aida! I don't think the tennis shoes look chunky at all, but I suppose it will take your eye time to adjust. I own only one pair of tennies, and they are chunky ones with lots of support for exercising, not simply for walking around. So I can understand that you would feel the change in shoe silhouette keenly!</p> <p>I don't think the zippered ankles look strange rolled. I didn't even notice it until you mentioned it, in fact.</p> <p>I love the cropped jacket! I think that really takes the outfit to a dressier level. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0607-from-yardwork-to-errands#post-1273039 Sun, 08 Jun 2014 22:50:41 +0000 Mona 1273039@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit for yardwok and errands. Glad that the sneaks are seeing a lot of use. Thanks for sharing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0607-from-yardwork-to-errands#post-1273025 Sun, 08 Jun 2014 22:44:08 +0000 Angie 1273025@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote there is no end to your super cute adorableness. My word - I can eat you up, Aida.&nbsp;</p> <p>You'll soon love sneaks on your feet - promise. xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-0607-from-yardwork-to-errands#post-1272993 Sun, 08 Jun 2014 22:09:23 +0000 Aida 1272993@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello ladies, hope you are having a great weekend! Most of Saturday was spent doing mucky yardwork, but I did need to run out briefly to the hardware and grocery. Another good test of my still-developing&nbsp;<a href="http://aida.lookfab.com/post/as-threatenedpromised-thoughts-and-plans-for-extra-casual-weekend-wear-xxl" rel="nofollow">active-casual weekend capsule</a>&nbsp;(thanks for the name, Mo!).</p> <p>Out in the yard I was wearing the hat and tank along with basketball shorts and sandals; to run the errands I popped on the denim&nbsp;jacket and swapped out the bottom half, which wasn't too much additional work because I had to wash my legs and feet off before heading out anyway. These new faded skinnies are sibling to the <a href="http://aida.lookfab.com/post/wiw-0603-plaid-and-white" rel="nofollow">white pair I wore last week</a>, but a size up for an even further relaxed fit. Is it odd looking to roll with the ankle zips? The zippers are really flexible so they roll up quite easily. I'm getting a bit more used to seeing my feet in sneakers, though even this rather slim low-profile&nbsp;pair feels chunky to me. And I don't have a good really casual bag for my weekend capsule yet, so out came my big emerald tote. Minimal accessorizing here, just my white leather-band&nbsp;watch and a swipe of cherry lip gloss. Felt sufficiently polished casual ^^</p> <p>Available items collected below.
