And the penguin story is a hoot (mixed bird references intended!)--I'm thinking like Thistle that someone is getting an extra big kick out of it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-31-sorta-seventies#post-1449879 Mon, 02 Mar 2015 03:06:19 +0000 Sara L. 1449879@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the penguin story!

I know I would. :)</p> <p>You look fabulous. Great take on the 70s look, and I like an A-line skirt on you better than a pencil. I think it feels more spunky and less corporate.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-31-sorta-seventies#post-1449717 Sun, 01 Mar 2015 20:40:12 +0000 harmonica 1449717@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Super cool!

How<b> FUN</b> that you kind of turned full circle, Anna. (I really miss your outfits here on YLF).&nbsp;</p> <p>Much prefer your version to the pin - and I always do, don't I. The socks peaking out from the boots are divine, and the outfit makes your already long legs look extra long.&nbsp;</p> <p>A great A-line skirt shape - better than pencil in that length. FABULOUS, and nicely done.&nbsp;</p> <p>Say hi to Dad for me.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-31-sorta-seventies#post-1449705 Sun, 01 Mar 2015 20:19:41 +0000 Greyscale 1449705@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That penguin just made my day.</p> <p>I like the outfit a lot, and the sweater is such a good match for the skirt.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-31-sorta-seventies#post-1449702 Sun, 01 Mar 2015 20:15:05 +0000 rabbit 1449702@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>nice look!&nbsp;love the hand-me down sweater, a great color on you.</p> <p>that penguin and his travels are awesome</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-31-sorta-seventies#post-1449700 Sun, 01 Mar 2015 20:12:53 +0000 CocoLion 1449700@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>See, this is why I miss cities which have an overall higher IQ and creativity level. &nbsp;'Round here the penguin would have gone to the dump…</p> <p>I love that skirt and 15 years ago it would have been mine. &nbsp;I'm glad to see someone got it, it's a great look for you and I noticed the scrunched socks right away as the perfect effortless detail. &nbsp;Both practical and picking up the warm oatmeal color of the turtleneck.</p> <p>I just read on one of my favorite blogs, <a rel="nofollow" href="http://carolinesmode.com/caroline/art/321667/the_beiges/">Stockholm Street Style</a>, that it's all about the beiges this Spring!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-31-sorta-seventies#post-1449695 Sun, 01 Mar 2015 20:03:33 +0000 annagybe 1449695@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So I really liked the whole vibe of the Alexa Chung for AG Jeans collection and decided to keep the dress. About two weeks ago I found the skirt version at Anthropologie, I wasn't sure.&nbsp;<br />Then I saw this blogger's take on it<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.pinterest.com/pin/371758144216552865/">https://www.pinterest.com/pin/371758144216552865/</a></p> <p>I decided this would be a good transition piece to wear with sweaters, etc. I went back for it about a week later. I also read a review saying that it ran small, which helped me figure out the sizing. I don't know if the sizing is exclusive to this collection or also part of the overall shift in denim sizing that Angie talked about.</p> <p>Wearing with ancient Scottish cashmere sweater from the 70's, that had a convoluted path through my family. Alexa Chung for AG Kety skirt, smart wool socks and dark brown Frye boots.&nbsp;<br />The socks are above the knee, but I didn't like how it looked, so I scrunched them down.<br />I'm trying to remember how do all the settings on my camera, so lighting isn't the best.<br />Bonus shots of steampunk penguin in my neighbor's yard.&nbsp;It has a story. He was left in a park near me&nbsp;with a letter attached it to. It said his jet pack ran out of fuel so this was safest place to land. He did notice that there some friends nearby and hoped to be with them.&nbsp;My neighbor has three penguins on his front step, so he was added to the group. </p>
