Anonymous on "WIW While Humid" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-49#post-1021316 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 23:14:29 +0000 Anonymous 1021316@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You look wonderful Lisa! Look at all those great denim bottoms. I love your new crossover shirt. And yes, let's blow all the humidity away. I want to see your gorgeous glossy hair worn down! Hey, have you ever tried wearing sandals with jeans for transitional weather? It might not be practical for work, but it's a fun look for the weekend.  Lisa on "WIW While Humid" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-49#post-1021266 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 22:29:40 +0000 Lisa 1021266@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ CocoLion-Thanks!  I used to avoid shorts because they never fit well.  Then came YLF and opening my eyes to tailoring.  I only own two pairs of shorts and they start out cheap but end up pricey by the time I am done with them.  I have to go up a size then have them shortened and the waist taken in, but then they fit nicely. Pawprints-Thanks!  Gosh, 7 months of humidity, oh my!

I love the long column effect of 1 and 4 and tonally in 5. The green blazer is so fresh and flattering with the blue (and I don't think it would be just as good as a fall color if you still like wearing it. And you do shorts very well. 15 pounds. LOL. So true. Come visit me 7 months of the year! CocoLion on "WIW While Humid" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-49#post-1021239 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 22:09:18 +0000 CocoLion 1021239@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Oh and I think the referee top would look best with the jeans, the pants look to light to go with the top.  JMO though. CocoLion on "WIW While Humid" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-49#post-1021236 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 22:06:30 +0000 CocoLion 1021236@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ What a great set Lisa!  The cross-over blouse style I have shied away from but you make it look easy to look good in.  So glad to see you in short, they look amazing on you.  And the jeans in #5 are the perfect shape and length. Lisa on "WIW While Humid" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-49#post-1020913 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 13:25:43 +0000 Lisa 1020913@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Isis-Thanks!  It's funny, I didn't realize this set was probably the most color I've worn in a while.  Usually I am very heavy with neutrals. :) Suz-Thanks!  Top twins, yay!  I'll admit I've seen this top on Sveta and yourself, so when it went on sale, I had to snatch it up.  I figure it is a nice change up from my very heavy knit top wardrobe. Angie-Thanks!  I would be very happy to send the humidity to you.  It keeps my skin from drying out, but my hair, oi vey!  It is one gaint, frizz balled mess for weeks already.  And it's too hot to blow dry it out straight, so up it goes.  I think it will be fun to put the green blazer on the side for winter and then pull it out again in the spring, I'm hoping by then I can figure out some new ways to style it. Pil-Thanks!  The pink top is one of my favorites, I'd like to add more pink to my wardrobe, but it's tough to find the right shade. Karie and Shevia-Thanks! Joy-Thanks! Day Vies-Thanks!  I hope you will chime back in and let us know how to work to weekend transitioning works for you.  Since my job is casual it helps me keep my wardrobe smaller because my clothes are dual purpose. Diane G-Thanks!  Anonymous on "WIW While Humid" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-49#post-1020794 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 08:27:38 +0000 Anonymous 1020794@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Lots of great looks Lisa. I like the transition from weekend to work; both are looking good. The green tones suit you so well too in your tiered top and 'workhorse blazer. You have a fab style groove going on. Day Vies on "WIW While Humid" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-49#post-1020745 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 04:42:39 +0000 Day Vies 1020745@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Referee indeed! I know what you mean going outside in humid weather feeling as if you gained 15 lbs in the process. All of these look great. I love your use of pattern and color. That green jacket is fabulous! #2 is probably my favorite with #4 coming in a close second. I also really like your formula for weaving work and play clothes together (I've been working on that). I'm marking as a favorite for that reason. Thanks!

Angie on "WIW While Humid" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-49#post-1020615 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 01:26:04 +0000 Angie 1020615@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ (Please send the humidity my way. My skin loves humidity). That green blazer will go down as *thee* workhorse of your wardrobe, Lisa. And with good reason because it looks so smashing on you. I think Mary does the same "weekend to work to weekend" outfit transition, and it's quite clever. I like the concept. Aren't you adorable in your shorts. And #4 is just my best. Great looks. xo Suz on "WIW While Humid" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-49#post-1020580 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 00:47:24 +0000 Suz 1020580@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Hey, Top Twin! We can referee together. I haven't actually worn mine. Poly is too hot in the humidity for me. But I will wear it soon.  These are great outfits, and look at you in the bootcuts! (As per Angie's blog post today.) Your weekend look is super cute.  Isis on "WIW While Humid" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-49#post-1020567 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 00:38:20 +0000 Isis 1020567@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Wow, I love all of these Lisa!  I see that you are branching into color, and I likey!  YLF!

Comments/suggestions are welcomed and thanks for looking!
