Sometimes Zara has beautiful pieces, this is one of them and it could not fit or look better, I prefer it without the belt.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1217-casual-holiday-party#post-1869775 Tue, 19 Dec 2017 12:52:48 +0000 Chris987 1869775@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fabtastic! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1217-casual-holiday-party#post-1869774 Tue, 19 Dec 2017 12:37:31 +0000 lyn67 1869774@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous 5 minutes perfection, including the case, art and scarf! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1217-casual-holiday-party#post-1869763 Tue, 19 Dec 2017 11:14:36 +0000 rachylou 1869763@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Super cute! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1217-casual-holiday-party#post-1869741 Tue, 19 Dec 2017 06:30:29 +0000 columbine(erin) 1869741@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous!

Your wardrobe is working so well for you. The scarf and near-match phone case are really fun. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1217-casual-holiday-party#post-1869578 Mon, 18 Dec 2017 20:25:44 +0000 Amy Isabella 1869578@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Absolutely stunning Janet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1217-casual-holiday-party#post-1869548 Mon, 18 Dec 2017 19:23:33 +0000 Katerina 1869548@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful outfit! Perfection. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1217-casual-holiday-party#post-1869522 Mon, 18 Dec 2017 18:05:34 +0000 Janet 1869522@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Haha! Thanks, Liz. When I got this blazer home, I remembered that I have a deep teal velvet blazer, but it has a completely different vibe -- it's very tailored and has a much more subtle velvet texture, not that shiny type. I've had it for ages! I seem to be stocking up on the velvet trend while it's around, because I've always liked it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1217-casual-holiday-party#post-1869516 Mon, 18 Dec 2017 17:53:57 +0000 approprio 1869516@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>haha I was getting ready to fight Suz for the blazer then realised I have two velvet blazers already. Don't need another. Looks fab on you though. I like the festive hair too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1217-casual-holiday-party#post-1869511 Mon, 18 Dec 2017 17:34:47 +0000 Janet 1869511@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, ladies! Carla, thanks for noticing the hair — I just got it cut and colored a couple of days ago and it hasn’t settled in yet. There are always those first few days after a haircut when it seems unruly and the color is a little too dark, but it will fade a bit and relax a bit with time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1217-casual-holiday-party#post-1869499 Mon, 18 Dec 2017 17:13:43 +0000 Jazzy Dance 1869499@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yep, I love it! The jacket is so luxurious looking! And your boots are definitely attention getting and fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1217-casual-holiday-party#post-1869489 Mon, 18 Dec 2017 16:59:26 +0000 Bonnie 1869489@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both outfits are wonderful. That jacket is lovely and the camera case matches you scarf perfectly.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1217-casual-holiday-party#post-1869486 Mon, 18 Dec 2017 16:45:51 +0000 Carla 1869486@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great hair, too! I like the length and the wave. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1217-casual-holiday-party#post-1869478 Mon, 18 Dec 2017 16:25:04 +0000 Angie 1869478@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER Casual Holiday look. (Like I said - you have never looked better, <b>Janet)</b>.&nbsp;</p> <p>Love that your phone matches that scarf. SOOOO fun.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1217-casual-holiday-party#post-1869475 Mon, 18 Dec 2017 16:23:05 +0000 Janet 1869475@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I lucked out on that blazer! It was one of only two left, seriously marked down, and they were both size S, which is right on the cusp of being too tight on me. But it's the kind of cut that I'm not going to wear closed, and the fit across the shoulders is fine, so I went for it. It helps that it has a little stretch.&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks for the kind words! A holiday outfit that has a little sheen but still reads a bit casual is the best kind for the type of events I attend. :-)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1217-casual-holiday-party#post-1869470 Mon, 18 Dec 2017 16:16:32 +0000 Elizabeth P 1869470@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG I WANT THAT BLAZER TOO!!!</p> <p>Although it appears to be gone :(<br />This is absolute perfection Janet, I hope you get to wear it often. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1217-casual-holiday-party#post-1869460 Mon, 18 Dec 2017 15:31:14 +0000 MsMary 1869460@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good grief. You are ridiculously fab!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1217-casual-holiday-party#post-1869458 Mon, 18 Dec 2017 15:26:14 +0000 Suz 1869458@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG I WANT THAT BLAZER!!!&nbsp;</p> <p>You look absolutely stunning, Janet. Love the silvery velvet with the touches of gold and the fab floral boots!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1217-casual-holiday-party#post-1869457 Mon, 18 Dec 2017 15:23:56 +0000 Janet 1869457@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I literally threw this outfit together in five minutes — proof that my wardrobe is working really well for me right now. I have enough special pieces that I can dress up jeans and a top with little effort. </p> <p>I started with the COH straight leg jeans that I altered by slitting the hems to make them more wearable. Added a basic black sleeveless wrap top as an underlayer and the Zara velvet blazer I got for a ridiculous price because the belt was missing (I cut the belt loops off). The Hispanitas boots finished it off. I am wearing the necklace I bought in San Miguel last month and a cuff I’ve had for years. With bold necklace and cuff, I went more subtle with earrings and ring (both of those gifts from hubs). </p> <p>Had a great time at the party and the jacket and shoes always get compliments! </p> <p>Bonus, you get to see my new phone case, made from one of my art pieces. On Saturday I realized that it matched my scarf (from JCrew a few years ago)! </p>
