I was going to say 1 and 2 are my favourites, but to be honest I think they are all pretty faintworthy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-42#post-972524 Sun, 07 Jul 2013 14:50:23 +0000 Karie 972524@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sveta, you know I love #3! I ordered the KUT Catherine's, they are due to arrive Tues. Fingers crossed for a good fit! If they look half as amazing as yours I'll be happy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-42#post-972357 Sun, 07 Jul 2013 03:23:04 +0000 Transcona Shannon 972357@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>At least my A/C at home is working and I can cool off here after being in my sweaty office all day. Wouldn't it be nice if we could have some sort of consistency in temperature??? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-42#post-972353 Sun, 07 Jul 2013 03:21:17 +0000 Sveta 972353@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry Shannon, I was not bragging I was complaining!;-)<br />Firecracker, I cannot believe it either! It required Angie's prodding to show me the way! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-42#post-972346 Sun, 07 Jul 2013 03:11:08 +0000 Transcona Shannon 972346@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>There's no need to brag about your A/C Sveta - lol! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-42#post-972345 Sun, 07 Jul 2013 03:10:03 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 972345@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All fab outfits! I would not change the fit of your short crops/long shorts one iota. You look smashing in them. I saw that photo and thought, gee, you didn't wear trousers pre-YLF? You do look like a model in them. I love the ink and yellow combinations in 1 and 2 on you, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-42#post-971999 Sat, 06 Jul 2013 17:33:42 +0000 Sveta 971999@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, I don't know if they technically long shorts or short crops - they are rather longer than yours - but I like wearing them. I only wish thery were a tad slouchier...maybe I should lose some weight to make them so... :-)<br />Suz, I work in A/C office and unlike Shannon our AC is working full blast: I had to wear a wool cardi over outfit #3 because it was too cold! In the morning and in the evening when I commute it is not as hot. Weekends are a different story...<br />Shannon, I think small wardrobe is a very relative term: comparing to Claire's mine is positively bursting Let's see that yellow blazer in more&nbsp;action!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-42#post-971922 Sat, 06 Jul 2013 15:07:46 +0000 Transcona Shannon 971922@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What I find so amazing with your style Sveta is that you have a relatively small wardrobe over all and yet your outfits do not seem like repeats - you change things up with small tweaks here and there and your outfits always seem new and fresh. Very impressive!</p> <p>I love #1 and once again, you are giving me ideas on how to wear our yellow blazer.</p> <p>Love the son &amp; kitty pics :)</p> <p>What time is the pool party? I'll bring the white wine spritzers. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-42#post-971893 Sat, 06 Jul 2013 14:20:41 +0000 Suz 971893@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love them all, Sveta! Am amazed you can look so fresh in the heat. My special favourite is #3, of course, but I also love #1 and #2.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-42#post-971888 Sat, 06 Jul 2013 14:06:33 +0000 Angie 971888@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Woooooohhhooo! You bat for Team LOOOOOOOOONG shorts too! That's a KILLER look, Sveta. The fluidity of those shorts is just perfect. </p> <p>I'm predictable. #3 makes me faint. But of course you look stunning in the skirts and dresses too. </p> <p>*faints with white crash helmet* </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-42#post-971882 Sat, 06 Jul 2013 13:49:02 +0000 Sveta 971882@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy, my hair has a mind of its own and we are not always on the best terms :-(<br />Beth Ann, pop in any time for a little pool time! It is really a lifesaver on hot humid days...<br />Lyn D. and Ceit- thanks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-42#post-971842 Sat, 06 Jul 2013 09:49:23 +0000 Anonymous 971842@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love these Sveta! The yellow works great with the ink blue. I think the blouse works great with the pencil too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-42#post-971835 Sat, 06 Jul 2013 08:35:35 +0000 Lyn D. 971835@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the bright jacket in pic 1 looks FAB with the ink shirt- a pop of sunshine! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-42#post-971792 Sat, 06 Jul 2013 04:38:28 +0000 Beth Ann 971792@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Loving the colors in #1 and #2.&nbsp; these are so fresh and sophisticated.&nbsp; All the outfits are stellar, and more amazing than ever given your workload and the challenges of hot weather dressing.</p> <p>Love the plaid "deck building" shirt.&nbsp; You have a pool!&nbsp; Hey, everyone:&nbsp; YLF pool party at Sveta's! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-42#post-971773 Sat, 06 Jul 2013 03:36:30 +0000 Sveta 971773@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Runcarla, yes, it is my son petting the cat.

I find that post-YLF me is fussy when it comes even to&nbsp;gardening&nbsp;gloves.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-42#post-971761 Sat, 06 Jul 2013 03:12:59 +0000 Anonymous 971761@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look like a model. These are wonderful outfits, and I'm loving your hair slightly mussed.<br /> My favorites are #1, which works beautifully to my eye, and the Angie copy #3. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-42#post-971759 Sat, 06 Jul 2013 03:09:48 +0000 Sveta 971759@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This was a short work week as we had&nbsp; holiday Monday. I am not posting the weekend outfits: it was all deck building so I will spare you :-)</p> <p><b>pic 1</b> <b>Yellow and Ink</b><br />Inspired by <a href="http://youlookfab.com/2013/07/01/tin-tin-in-long-shorts-and-lace/" rel="nofollow">Angie's long shorts post </a>I decided to wear mine too! They are not as cool as hers &nbsp;and I don't have that amazing strict and playful top so I tried to make do with what I have.<br />I usually pair this yellow blazer with white, grey or faded denim because I fell it is such a statement piece it has to be toned down. This time however I decided to try it with ink blue - what do you think? Too much? Instead of high-contrast white I opted for low-contrast black shoes and belt.<br />Yellow blazer - Gap<br />black/white micro-check crops - Winners<br />Ink blue shirt - Le Chateau<br />black belt and silver tote - Danier<br />black open-toe shoes - Ros Hommerson</p> <p><b>pic 2 Yellow and dark blue - again!</b><br />Looks like yellow and blue was a recurring theme this week! This is my attempt to de-bombshell a pencil skirt - with cats! The shirt is pretty loose on me (on top anyway) so it really balloons over this skirt.&nbsp;<br />Halogen yellow seamed pencil skirt - NAS<br />Navy / cream cat shirt - Gap<br />Nude cage sandals - Franco Sarto<br />Monty's cousin tote - Winners</p> <p><b>pic 3 Back to white<br /></b>After my foray into colors I am back enjoying white this summer. As always this outfit was inspired by Angie's one from <a href="http://youlookfab.com/2013/06/28/my-phone-and-me/" rel="nofollow">here</a>. OK, let's be honest - not just inspired but basically copy-catted up to the leopard belt! :-)<br />Black tunic shirt - Le Chateau<br />Kut white BF jeans - Nordstrom<br />MK leopard belt - Rack<br />Silver Isaac Mizrahi flats - Nordstrom<br />Red Chromia bag - Winners</p> <p><b>pic 4...and more white</b><br />The day was humid and hot so my lightweight coral lace dress came out to play. We planned to go to the park after work to listen to the music so flat oxfords were just right for the comfort level. I also decided to pull out my old tan hobo bag which I have not used for a while.<br />Coral lace dress - Banana Republic<br />White denim jacket - Old Navy<br />Yellow / white flat oxfords - Hush Puppies<br />Tan leather hobo&nbsp; - Luce via Winners </p> <p>As usual&nbsp; any comments and suggestions are very much appreciated.<br />Thanks for looking and have a great weekend! </p>
