On our first day everyone had on all sorts of fun dresses too.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1st-two-days-of-school#post-1348522 Sat, 06 Sep 2014 14:06:56 +0000 Staysfit 1348522@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Scarf tie: I folded the scarf in half across its length. Then wrapped it around my neck once so there was one loop around my neck and two even loose ends hanging. Take the inside corners at the bottom of the loose ends and tie them together in one single tie like when you start your shoe laces. Then play around with the placement of everything until it lays how you like it. I like this way of of tying my scarf because it seems to reduce some of the bulk.</p> <p>I hope this is clear. If not, I can see if I can find directions for it somewhere online. I don't know where I learned it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1st-two-days-of-school#post-1348491 Sat, 06 Sep 2014 12:37:37 +0000 SW 1348491@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the way you tied your scarf in the last photo. How did you do that? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1st-two-days-of-school#post-1348477 Sat, 06 Sep 2014 11:52:46 +0000 Staysfit 1348477@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No that particular shade of red would not be a good one in my work place. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1st-two-days-of-school#post-1348424 Sat, 06 Sep 2014 04:29:04 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 1348424@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm a matchy matchy girl, so maybe a white cardigan or a navy one? Of course a denim jacket would look great - on the weekend if not to work.</p> <p>You can't wear red to work? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1st-two-days-of-school#post-1348353 Sat, 06 Sep 2014 01:49:10 +0000 Staysfit 1348353@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Aquamarine, looking back at the picture again, I think I like the line the topper makes with the dress also. &nbsp;It's a boxy topper and I like how it balances out the skirt. &nbsp;It's so different looking in the mirror compared to a picture. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1st-two-days-of-school#post-1348333 Sat, 06 Sep 2014 01:29:39 +0000 Aquamarine 1348333@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I actually prefer the tan topper. It keeps the whole outfit light and does seem more approachable than the red one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1st-two-days-of-school#post-1348330 Sat, 06 Sep 2014 01:23:16 +0000 columbine(erin) 1348330@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a fun dress- I like the red topper and shoes, and you could wear any color, really, with this dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1st-two-days-of-school#post-1348317 Sat, 06 Sep 2014 01:10:25 +0000 Staysfit 1348317@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It has been hot here so picking what to wear for the weather was key. &nbsp;Keeping it fun was also important, especially because the students I work with were mostly unhappy about returning from their summer break (which was only 2 weeks long unlike most traditional students). &nbsp;It felt like much longer though. <br />&nbsp;<br />1. &nbsp;I went for comfort with an Ivory and Navy striped dress from J Crew, plus my red AGL flats for the fun factor.&nbsp; I kept the rest of the&nbsp;accessories small, only small layered necklaces, and two bangles.</p> <p>2. &nbsp;I added a tan topper to help with the A/C. &nbsp;Not too excited about this topper but it is ok. &nbsp;Maybe I could have found something better if I hunted.</p> <p>3/4. &nbsp;I briefly&nbsp;considered my beaded red cardigan as a topper. &nbsp;I like it, but didn't walk out the door with it on. &nbsp;This &nbsp;is the wrong color red for my work. &nbsp;It can evoke too many emotional reactions from people, and I am not sure it is an <b>EASY</b>/approachable color.</p> <p>5. &nbsp;All linen for the second day. &nbsp; J Crew tee, herringbone linen pants, and scarf from 1 year ago. &nbsp;Also used multiple bangles and glass earrings to add some color. &nbsp;Naot platform sandals.</p> <p>I ended up with a partial tuck of the tee, not the look that is here, but I couldn't get the picture to load for some reason. &nbsp;Once again, this is my uniform. &nbsp;I didn't need a topper because the scarf worked to keep me warm enough indoors. &nbsp;It was close to 90 degrees outside. &nbsp;</p>
