I didn’t even notice the geometric link! You have a good eye for detail.<br /> Lyn67, thank you! I think I will order a cream top in the same style.....wonder if it might become a work horse?! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-new-neckline-widw-much-make-up#post-2026123 Fri, 10 May 2019 06:25:38 +0000 lyn67 2026123@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, loved the&nbsp; story behind that necklace!:-)) That particular neckline and your make up is great, too! Your accessories are always&nbsp; amazing me, love the pastel outfit, too! Very put together but still approachable, I think! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-new-neckline-widw-much-make-up#post-2026054 Thu, 09 May 2019 23:13:31 +0000 The Cat 2026054@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful lady, beautiful makeup. The ruffle makes a chic frame, and the blouse colours look so harmonious with your colouring. I also like how the shapes of the necklace parts harmonize with the blouse pattern (small geometrics). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-new-neckline-widw-much-make-up#post-2026045 Thu, 09 May 2019 21:47:45 +0000 Mainelady 2026045@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>JenniNZ, thank you. I appreciate the compliment about my hair. It is very light on the top but underneath and in some sections I have quite a bit of brown/ gray and then other sections of white. Quite the hodge podge when the wind blows it around.<br /> Thank you Style Fan. Medium brown eyebrow pencil and brownish black mascara.<br /> Angie! Cheers to blind dates that lead to a lifetime of happy! HIGH FIVE!<br /> Thank you Suntiger! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-new-neckline-widw-much-make-up#post-2025935 Thu, 09 May 2019 16:27:05 +0000 Anonymous 2025935@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love your jewelry especially (even before you said it was from Brazil-my mom's homeland)! The light colors look especially good on you too, and the makeup is perfect. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-new-neckline-widw-much-make-up#post-2025874 Thu, 09 May 2019 13:42:30 +0000 Angie 2025874@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Greg and I met on a blind date in 1987 too. HIGH FIVE!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-new-neckline-widw-much-make-up#post-2025832 Thu, 09 May 2019 10:18:15 +0000 Style Fan 2025832@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous make up. I love how you have done your eyes. The cream and tan look so flattering against your skin. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-new-neckline-widw-much-make-up#post-2025829 Thu, 09 May 2019 10:06:42 +0000 Jenni NZ 2025829@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am wowed yet again by your hair. It’s so pretty. I also have some age spots but I don’t cover them up much. I cover one on my forehead with a little concealer since it is quite dark- what was left after a spot got treated with liquid nitrogen. I think your makeup looks great and the lipstick is good with your eyes.<br /> The ruffle suits by not being too “pretty” ( I mean pretty in a sort of little-girl way, here). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-new-neckline-widw-much-make-up#post-2025707 Wed, 08 May 2019 22:24:08 +0000 Mainelady 2025707@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you Bijou. DH and I are blessed. We met on a blind date in 1980. He is what we Mainers call “a keeper”. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-new-neckline-widw-much-make-up#post-2025565 Wed, 08 May 2019 13:38:44 +0000 Bijou 2025565@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look gorgeous and what an beautiful necklace and very special story. So lovely to know that you have a DH who appreciates you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-new-neckline-widw-much-make-up#post-2025553 Wed, 08 May 2019 13:27:58 +0000 Angie 2025553@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You've adjusted beautifully! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-new-neckline-widw-much-make-up#post-2025487 Wed, 08 May 2019 09:50:58 +0000 Cee 2025487@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely, ML... and the evil cowlneck is back sulking in the corner. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-new-neckline-widw-much-make-up#post-2025486 Wed, 08 May 2019 09:46:41 +0000 Mainelady 2025486@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are so generous with your comments. I am blushing a bit, which I guess can be nature’s cheek color.<br /> Brooklyn, Aliceinwonderland, Joy and Kelly Girl. Thank you! I am really happy to hear that you think the neckline works. I don’t dislike it, but my eye needs time to adjust. The fabric and feel of the top is glorious, so I will likely order a cream top. I was trying to decide if I should order with this neckline, or a more simple scoop neck.<br /> Thank you so much Taylor, Shevia, Joy and Kellygirl. I am kind of surprised about my makeup. My skin is a work in progress, my skin tone uneven and it does look better with a thin veil of foundation. My skin seems to stay healthier when I use fewer products and I like to let my skin breathe, sooo...... Taylor, I don’t get dark circles too often, but I do get bags under my eyes. A nice skin firming eye cream helps combat those.<br /> Lisa P, I had you at my faux Hermès belt. When I went to visit DTwin she was wearing one and I was surprised she would spend $$$ on a belt. She told me she ordered it from Amazon and that it was offered in many colors. The belt is a very good fake. Yes, speed dialing Amazon and my belt was waiting for me when I returned from my trip.<br /> Runcarla, thank you for the caramel and cream compliment. It is quickly becoming one of my favorites to wear.<br /> Ms. Maven, the necklace was a surprise from DH. The stones are all tourmaline, which is a Maine gemstone, although most of the stones in the necklace are from Brazil. The stones are square and bezel set. It really is a beautiful piece and I don’t wear it often enough. One of my goals is to wear my fancier pieces more often. This necklace is one such piece.<br /> When DH gave me the gift I was hunched over the kitchen table, wearing a bathrobe and working on report cards. He came up behind me, gave me a hug and placed the Jewelry box in front of me. It was a total surprise and I was at my least glamorous. Let me tell you that after putting on the necklace, my bathrobe and I were really quite spectacular! Hahaha! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-new-neckline-widw-much-make-up#post-2025453 Wed, 08 May 2019 05:27:49 +0000 Alicewonderland 2025453@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look very healthy and glowy with your makeup and the ruffle neckline frames beautifully! It’s such an unusual neckline to find these days. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-new-neckline-widw-much-make-up#post-2025452 Wed, 08 May 2019 05:25:55 +0000 Brooklyn 2025452@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great.

Love the blouse. It has just the right amount of ruffle and still looks tailored with clean lines. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-new-neckline-widw-much-make-up#post-2025410 Wed, 08 May 2019 01:30:17 +0000 Jaime 2025410@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your face looks beautiful in #1 - love the lipcolor!<br />Neckline works too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-new-neckline-widw-much-make-up#post-2025405 Wed, 08 May 2019 01:21:57 +0000 taylor 2025405@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lucky you, you don’t need much make up.<br /> Lots of contrast with your dark eyes and light hair , lots of color in your skin and no dark circles....ok , I’m jealous...:)<br /> YLF! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-new-neckline-widw-much-make-up#post-2025355 Tue, 07 May 2019 21:25:09 +0000 Mainelady 2025355@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are all so kind with your comments. Thank you.<br /> Jane I did end up wearing the denim jacket with the outfit. I thought it was the best combination.<br /> Thank you, TG. I tried the nude lip, which I love seeing on others. It really looked poor on me.<br /> Firecracker, I think your description of the ruffle as architectural is just right. I was worried about it being too much for my style, but you are right. It is a ruffle with some structure.<br /> Katerina that Escada blouse with the ruffle is gorgeous! I love how the ruffle fills in the neck area, like a turtleneck, but with oh so much more interest and style!<br /> Thank you Angie. I find myself reaching for light neutral tops much more often than I used to. After almost 2 years I think I am finally adjusting to my hair color.<br /> Cardiff Girl, thank you. I really don’t have great skin, but am a work in progress about keeping it as healthy as possible. DD is an aesthetician and is really helping to identify the needs of my skin and securing products meet those needs. My skin care routine changes almost seasonally. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-new-neckline-widw-much-make-up#post-2025327 Tue, 07 May 2019 18:12:04 +0000 Cardiff girl 2025327@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your makeup looks great but then you have fantastic skin.The light colours suit you beautifully. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-new-neckline-widw-much-make-up#post-2025320 Tue, 07 May 2019 17:43:40 +0000 Angie 2025320@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>FABULOUS. Those light neutrals are heavenly with your hair. And very nice makeup </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-new-neckline-widw-much-make-up#post-2025309 Tue, 07 May 2019 17:25:58 +0000 Katerina 2025309@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like your makeup, Mainelady. The dewy skin is lovely. I love the colour of your lipstick on you. Your make up enhances your beautiful eyes and hair and you are glowing in it.<br /> Ruffled collars are my favorite so I am biased. The combination with the dark jacket is smashing. And of course - such fabulous jewelry.</p> <p>Talking about ruffles near the face, just yesterday I saved a picture of a simple outfit with a ruffled blouse from Escada, as inspo. I attach it here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-new-neckline-widw-much-make-up#post-2025299 Tue, 07 May 2019 16:56:05 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2025299@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mainelady, you look great! Your eyes are beautiful, and minimal makeup works well for you. The bold lip color is so pretty, especially with your necklace. Thanks for the closeup. The top is lovely on you. I see that ruffle as more architectural than frilly, so it works nicely with your polished casual outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-new-neckline-widw-much-make-up#post-2025298 Tue, 07 May 2019 16:55:49 +0000 Helena 2025298@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the outfit and your polished, natural makeup look with just enough depth to the lippie to balance your lovely dark eyes. Two thumbs up! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-new-neckline-widw-much-make-up#post-2025297 Tue, 07 May 2019 16:54:33 +0000 Jane 2025297@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>4 looks amazing to my eye. I love the contrast with the denim, and the gold pumps make it look modern. I like your make up too.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-new-neckline-widw-much-make-up#post-2025296 Tue, 07 May 2019 16:50:48 +0000 Mainelady 2025296@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m trying a ruffled V neck. It has been years since I have worn ruffles near my face. I tried styling the top with a couple of options. I am undecided about the look, so please add comments if you have any.<br /> Given the posts about makeup, I added a close up of “ what you see is mostly me”. Eyebrow pencil, mascara, lipstick. Uneven skin tone, age spots and all. I think I am ok with it.<br /> You won’t hurt my feelings at all if you tell me I need to step up my makeup game<br /> Thank you for looking and for sharing your thoughts. </p>
