It looks really nice with the light gray walls, white trim, and black doors. cheryle (Dianthus) on "WIW 8/14: Biz cas in a new-to-me shirt" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-814-biz-cas-in-a-new-to-me-shirt#post-1331274 Fri, 15 Aug 2014 01:45:52 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 1331274@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Mary I forgot to ask what color you are having the floor finished.  It looks like it was in the lighter range before.   Sveta on "WIW 8/14: Biz cas in a new-to-me shirt" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-814-biz-cas-in-a-new-to-me-shirt#post-1331270 Fri, 15 Aug 2014 01:44:13 +0000 Sveta 1331270@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ MAry, you rock it! Yay for Carter - this periwinkle shirt looks amazing! But the house, THE HOUSE! You found contractors after your own heart: none of you allow grass to grow under your feet!

I love you in the lighter neutrals & that lilac is perfect with them/on you. Your curls are so flattering too. You look light & bright but still serious & powerful. Awesome. I'm impressed with how quickly the remodelling's going!  cheryle (Dianthus) on "WIW 8/14: Biz cas in a new-to-me shirt" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-814-biz-cas-in-a-new-to-me-shirt#post-1331061 Thu, 14 Aug 2014 22:46:26 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 1331061@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Love the outfit.  Windowpane pattern and lilac together = fab to me.

That is my goal for this fall/winter, sand box shades ^^ Looks super with the lilac shirt (how lovely of Carter to send your way!). Would also be fun paired with tomato red and French blue, when you get more of your wardrobe back of course. Go house go!

Trust Ms. Mary to hire the most efficient contractor in town! You do not mess around, lady.  Love your new top, and love Carter's generosity in sending it! Super nice. YLF is just the greatest place.  If I may venture it, would that top not look amazing with your orange Sloan pants? Make it a complete YLF slam dunk!   MsMary on "WIW 8/14: Biz cas in a new-to-me shirt" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-814-biz-cas-in-a-new-to-me-shirt#post-1330704 Thu, 14 Aug 2014 15:03:13 +0000 MsMary 1330704@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I received a box in the mail yesterday from my YLF buddy Carter, who sent me a whole bunch of button-front shirts that don't work for her any more!  Woo-hoo!  I'm wearing one today and I just love it!  Let's hear it for YLF hand-me-downs!! Windowpane pants:  Banana Republic Lilac shirt:  DCC via Carter Tan blazer:  Olivia Moon White pumps:  Bandolino White satchel:  Banana Republic I kind of like the range of neutral tones from bright white to oatmealy tan.  What do you all think? House update:  The gaps in the floor where we knocked down the wall between the living room and dining room have been patched, and the floor is getting sanded in preparation for the new finish!  Big fun!!
