I love the white with your black and can't wait to see the grey version of the jersey drape top. I think you would look amazing in a tonal outfit of grey and white for your spring/summer </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-day-of-eating#post-1343040 Sat, 30 Aug 2014 03:15:03 +0000 Caro in Oz 1343040@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looking good &amp; a great save Deborah :)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-day-of-eating#post-1342946 Sat, 30 Aug 2014 00:48:14 +0000 Angie 1342946@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>*smiling* </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-day-of-eating#post-1342898 Fri, 29 Aug 2014 23:47:17 +0000 Sarah A 1342898@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love your crossover top over the white silky blouse. Great layering concept. Am I seeing right your boots look suede in front and leather in back? I really like the interest that brings to the monochrome. Brilliant and inspiring </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-day-of-eating#post-1342849 Fri, 29 Aug 2014 22:43:47 +0000 Deborah 1342849@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you ladies and Angie, the white is all for you:).

Love the white top's clever appearance here. I always struggle whith black and white (big blocked) outfits, but this topper is so clever. It is completely different&nbsp;from a common&nbsp;a black bottom and white top, or black suit with a white shell fromula, and I just love it. Taking notes:-). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-day-of-eating#post-1342360 Fri, 29 Aug 2014 06:32:14 +0000 karymk 1342360@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Deborah! I like your idea of a silky top when you have a jersey jacket. &nbsp;I will try that with my new Metallicus jacket for sure.</p> <p>Having a great time in Melbourne, love the styles though haven't bought much because I am spending so much cash on meals out, wine, and transport.</p> <p>Just got back from Koonwarra, where I saw just about all the animals I wanted to see on ONE bush walk!!! Didn't get to see a wombat, but I heard about Patrick the 29 year old virgin wombat!</p> <p>I tucked into the new Emporium in the CBD twice already, have been to CHadstone with Imogen for a shop, been up and down Chapel and Acland Streets. &nbsp;It's all fab but I really like Life With Bird and Seed. &nbsp;</p> <p>Have a great weekend! We are going to the footy tomorrow and have a fancy dinner out tonight. &nbsp;On Sunday we are going to the Vic market in town and then preparing a big family lunch for my friend's extended family. &nbsp;I think Monday I will go see some more animals at the zoo or aquarium, or perhaps get in one more shop before I leave for home on Tuesday.</p> <p>K </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-day-of-eating#post-1342358 Fri, 29 Aug 2014 06:29:27 +0000 catgirl 1342358@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What an amazing top! And great save. i like the touch of white under. They have something very similar at AllSaints right now. Fortunately it looked terrible on me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-day-of-eating#post-1342356 Fri, 29 Aug 2014 06:21:44 +0000 Deborah 1342356@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Ladies,</p> <p>Friday here and my weekend has started. Met a girlfriend for breakfast, met DH for lunch and then MIL for a cuppa...it will be a very small dinner for me tonight;)</p> <p>I have been struggling to get this top (and another in light grey) into regular rotation. But last night I had a bit of an epiphany. The top is a jersey and if I layer say a jersey tank underneath it catches on the fabric under it and doesn't drape at the back. Realised that I need a silky top underneath so the jersey just flows over it, not sure why it took me that long to work it out?:)</p> <p>So black cross over drape top worn over a white silky tank, and black jeggings and OTK boots. Wore my new silver earrings and a silver cuff, wedding rings and silver mesh ring. </p> <p>I am happy with this and pleased I have worked out how to make the top work comfortably. You will probably be seeing the grey one soon;)</p> <p>Styling ideas and thoughts always much appreciated.</p> <p>xxxDeborah </p>
