I really like your style. The combination of casual with striking structured bag and the fantastic sunglasses - wow! And the oxfords are right up my alley. Your outfits are always interesting and artistic.<br /> I think that although our styles are quite different, we have some elements of style in common. Can’t really identify it exactly, but there is a playfulness and coolness which really appeals to me and make me want to copy you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-very-me-week-day-1#post-2006526 Tue, 26 Feb 2019 03:00:43 +0000 Bonnie 2006526@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A serger, huh. I didn't know what one was but I watched a you tube video and it looks easy. Maybe I will get one. I'll have to put more thought into it. It would be nice to have custom tees that fit well.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-very-me-week-day-1#post-2006519 Tue, 26 Feb 2019 02:46:11 +0000 Anonymous 2006519@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm always in awe of your sewing skills, and what a great coat -and of course the sunnies </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-very-me-week-day-1#post-2006516 Tue, 26 Feb 2019 02:41:30 +0000 Suz 2006516@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look amazing, and so, so <b>you</b>! I love every component of this outfit, from the colours to the textures to the pullover, the jeans (you are Queen of Jeans!) and the amazing coat and dressy bag. Brilliant.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-very-me-week-day-1#post-2006504 Tue, 26 Feb 2019 02:21:31 +0000 Jaime 2006504@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this! Great mix of trends, arty (love the coat and tee), and super stylish but comfortable shoes.

You look fab! I love the way the tones in your tee tie everything together. Swap out the straight legs for bootcuts and I would steal this in a heartbeat. Now I want to see the cardi version, to showcase you handiwork.</p> <p>I love your self made tees. I need to find a source for fabric that is worthy of spending my sewing time on and make a muslin. I bought some fine merino from New Zealand that I I have high hopes for but it is sitting uncut as I am waiting for inspiration to strike. If I am snowed in for the next three days, you may have provided it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-very-me-week-day-1#post-2006316 Mon, 25 Feb 2019 22:51:49 +0000 Anonymous 2006316@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Angie said. A well deserved Killer from the Aviators to your sparkley oxfords. I have wanted that EF pullover. It looks amazing on you, the color too. The glimpse of the tee underneath make me want to see more. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-very-me-week-day-1#post-2006308 Mon, 25 Feb 2019 22:46:28 +0000 Cee 2006308@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No worries...

So jealous that you can do that. Maybe I could but first I have to either buy another sewing machine or try to figure out how to make the one I have work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-very-me-week-day-1#post-2006285 Mon, 25 Feb 2019 22:34:15 +0000 rachylou 2006285@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely. It’s the OSKA that makes it you in my mind </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-very-me-week-day-1#post-2006283 Mon, 25 Feb 2019 22:28:57 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2006283@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p> <div>Taking up <a rel="nofollow" href="https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-a-very-you-week-of-outfits">Angie's challenge</a> to document a "Very YOU Week" of dressing, here's Day 1 for me.</div><div><br /></div><div>On my days off, I generally wear jeans, for comfort, and a sweater, for warmth. I have a lot of t-shirts that I've made, in fun print fabrics, which I used to wear a lot with cardigans. Recently, I've gravitated toward pullover sweaters, though, and my signature self-made tees have languished. Today I really wanted to wear one of my t-shirts, and I discovered that the cardigans I like best and the t-shirts I like best do NOT go together. I couldn't come up with a combo I wanted to wear! (Dysfunctional wardrobe discovery #1!)</div><div><br /></div><div>So I decided to wear a signature self-made tee with a pullover. I tried to expose the neck of the t-shirt a little bit, and I turned up the sleeves of the pullover to expose a few inches of the tee sleeves. Problem solved! <br /></div><div><br /></div><div>The outfit: <br /></div><div>Black jeans (Levis Wedgie High Waist Straight), taupe, burgundy and black abstract rose-print long-sleeved tee (made by me); rose wool high-low hem boxy pullover (Eileen Fisher); charcoal snake-embossed sparkly oxfords (Mephisto); black trouser socks. For outdoors, added gray print puffer coat (OSKA); gray and brown croc-print bag (Brahmin); black knit gloves; and my black aviator sunglasses. <br /></div><div><br /></div><div>It's always a good day when the sun comes out and I can wear my sunglasses; they make me feel so cool!</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div></p>
