I cannot end to admire the perfect textures, drapes and arty layers on you, Debs! My God, you surely are an expert&nbsp;in all these! Love the new boots!&nbsp; YLabsolutelyF, and am brutally honest here, if you know what I mean:-))</p> <p>Oh, and came back to say, I also love the adition of some&nbsp;whites here! All black wouldn't show off that well&nbsp;all those tricky layers and cuts so, I think the &nbsp;white tunic&nbsp;is the soul of the outfit here:-).</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-old-fave#post-1332748 Sat, 16 Aug 2014 20:48:34 +0000 Niefern 1332748@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fab! I have a question though: if it is cool season in Australia now, what kind of topper do you wear with this outfit? I'm guessing&nbsp;all jackets are out ... ?</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-old-fave#post-1332727 Sat, 16 Aug 2014 20:20:06 +0000 amiable 1332727@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm swooning! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-old-fave#post-1332707 Sat, 16 Aug 2014 19:35:35 +0000 gryffin 1332707@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stunning!!&nbsp; I love the whole outfit!&nbsp; The drape on the cardi is gorgeous and I love the tunic, very EF.&nbsp; Those boots are fantastic - like the SW 50/50's but I like the (is it suede/leahter) combo.&nbsp; Wonderful!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-old-fave#post-1332688 Sat, 16 Aug 2014 19:10:26 +0000 Hil 1332688@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love. That's all </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-old-fave#post-1332641 Sat, 16 Aug 2014 17:53:51 +0000 Alana in Canada 1332641@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Now, that's a white tunic I can get behind (and unto, assuming it comesin my size!)<br />I love how the white brightens things up.</p> <p>Do you mind if I ask you--do you wear those boots in the house? Did you have them on while your guests were over, for instance? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-old-fave#post-1332636 Sat, 16 Aug 2014 17:44:11 +0000 E 1332636@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love how you wear drapey layers like this &amp; you always seem to nail the proportions. And even with the black &amp; white drama, my eyes still go to your face first: you *own* your look. What cool new boots!&nbsp;The white is so brightening too: I hope you're completely recovered from your cold soon. It was fun seeing the wrapped up variation in 5.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-old-fave#post-1332571 Sat, 16 Aug 2014 16:06:23 +0000 Vicki 1332571@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Even with a cold, you look amazing! You dress in a dramatic way, which I admire and could never pull off. The cream top and the reunited cardigan are brilliant pieces together and I love how the latter drapes, wraps and ties. Wow, can you strike a pose! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-old-fave#post-1332545 Sat, 16 Aug 2014 15:39:44 +0000 viva 1332545@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Deborah, your posts are the perfect example of WIWs I absolutely seek out and look forward to, but which I would never presume to critique. Why? Because your style is at the polar opposite end of mine, and I don't know anything about the drape and proportion of arty layers. All I can do is admire. And I do, every time. I get emotional fashion inspiration from you, if that makes sense. So thanks for that. :)</p> <p>This outfit is fantastic -- I love the rocker chic of pic 1 and your sassiness in pic 5. And those boots are so cute. I could work those into a tomboy look in a hot minute. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-old-fave#post-1332539 Sat, 16 Aug 2014 15:32:13 +0000 LACeleste 1332539@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Omg. Debbie Harry is alive and well and looking gorgeous in Australia!

You took care of every detail, including the mixed media leggings. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-old-fave#post-1332520 Sat, 16 Aug 2014 15:03:18 +0000 annagybe 1332520@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the lines of the white top. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-old-fave#post-1332484 Sat, 16 Aug 2014 14:03:46 +0000 frannieb 1332484@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>&nbsp;I love this look and love how you play with proportions and texture. Those boots are wonderful.<br />You are one of my inspirations for working through finding a style/silhouette that are consistently my look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-old-fave#post-1332483 Sat, 16 Aug 2014 14:00:51 +0000 Angie 1332483@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Killer</p> <p>You had me with the addition of white to the outfit. xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-old-fave#post-1332459 Sat, 16 Aug 2014 13:14:36 +0000 Neel 1332459@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am with Lyn D. I will be brutally honest and just say you look super adorable in blacks! I wish that color looked as good on me! That drapey cardi can't go missing again. Please wear it often! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-old-fave#post-1332457 Sat, 16 Aug 2014 13:05:58 +0000 Golden 1332457@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it, you look fantastic! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-old-fave#post-1332452 Sat, 16 Aug 2014 12:59:13 +0000 Suz 1332452@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am in love with the new boots! Very very cool. I love the combined texture. A question -- do you think they may be easier to fit than to-the-knee boots? I have such a bear of a time with those, I'm wondering if the over-the-knee might be a touch more forgiving?&nbsp;</p> <p>I love the white vertical lines and the tapered drape of the white top -- it looks incredibly fresh on you. #5 is gorgeous!! Love just that peek of white at the bottom. :)</p> <p>Hope you are feeling better soon.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-old-fave#post-1332436 Sat, 16 Aug 2014 12:25:06 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1332436@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You know I love your all black outfits but I will admit it makes me positively giddy when I see some white thrown in. Black and white is a stellar combination on you.</p> <p>The new boots are great. They are a mix of leather and suede, no! Nice bit of texture.</p> <p>Hope you and Master 11 are starting to get over your colds </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-old-fave#post-1332430 Sat, 16 Aug 2014 11:37:20 +0000 Deborah 1332430@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ladies, you are all so funny! </p> <p>Lyn, I wondered what was coming lol. </p> <p>Debra, thank you:). I have had my eye on the boots for ages and they went on sale so I figured it was meant:)</p> <p>Denise, I am not going to pretend I dont like being told I look younger than I am:). I love it lol. I turn 50 next year. Your comment is most adequately constructive... Thank you;)</p> <p>Crutcher thank you. I don't think you could ever be disingenuous. Your comments are always thoughtful and considered, and I'm always happy to receive compliments too lol. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-old-fave#post-1332425 Sat, 16 Aug 2014 10:59:57 +0000 crutcher 1332425@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hope your cold is better...<br />I find your look is just spot on...In the light of the discussion, I am hesitant to say you look wonderful for fear of sounding disengenuous...So here I go...you do look wondeful and I love black... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-old-fave#post-1332423 Sat, 16 Aug 2014 10:53:17 +0000 CocoLion 1332423@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It has occurred to me that since you've joined YLF, your style honing and change of haircut have combined to make your overall appearance look more youthful. &nbsp;By about 10 years. &nbsp;I believe you are in your 40s but you look to me like you're in your 30s nowadays. &nbsp;Hope that came off adequately as constructive criticism. &nbsp;;-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-old-fave#post-1332421 Sat, 16 Aug 2014 10:45:27 +0000 Debra 1332421@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well I just love this the boots are super cool, I really like the two tone effect and everything is working together perfectly YLF </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-old-fave#post-1332411 Sat, 16 Aug 2014 09:06:31 +0000 Lyn D. 1332411@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well Deborah, as now I have your permission to be brutally honest…… I hate to say that I absolutely love this :)</p> <p>The cream top is perfect for lightening the whole effect and giving you a lovely glow, and the boots with their 2-tones are to-die-for!</p> <p>I do hope you are feeling back to normal very soon x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-old-fave#post-1332404 Sat, 16 Aug 2014 08:25:42 +0000 Deborah 1332404@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy Weekend Everyone:)</p> <p>Well not so old but definitely a favourite. I am not sure why I haven't been wearing this draped cardigan this year. I wore it a lot last year and loved it!<br /> Anyway, I was trying to avoid reaching for my cocoon cardigan "again" and popped this on. I immediately remembered why I bought it. Great drape, nice weight but still light (it has relatively sheer layers) and very easy to wear. I am so glad we have been reunited:)</p> <p>Slow day today with a visit from my brother and sister in law in the morning and a coffee and catch up with a girlfriend this afternoon. </p> <p>I felt like some "light" today, possibly because I am still getting over a head cold and I am feeling quite tired. All black never works as well if I am tired and looking it;). </p> <p>Outfit is ponte leggings, new over the knee pull on boots (my second mid season refresher), cream tunic and black draped cardigan. </p> <p>Thanks for looking! And in the wake of IK's recent thread, I am genuinely pleased to hear all constructive comments. I know my love of wearing black is not everyone's cup of tea but thoughts on proportions, layers etc are always well received. I'm a sponge! Lol. And thank you for your friendship and always being here to share with and for always having fun with fashion with me x</p> <p>xxxDeborah </p>
