I'm not so sure about #3 I understand the round the house/warmth aspect though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-scarf-question#post-727053 Fri, 21 Sep 2012 00:15:51 +0000 Mellllls 727053@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i like the scarf, i think it's classic and won't go out of style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-scarf-question#post-727048 Fri, 21 Sep 2012 00:13:59 +0000 JR 727048@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>CJ, daydreaming is good. I hadn't even thought to try to spice it up, to tell the truth. It's just what happened when I took the scarf off. ;o) I guess the scarf was the spice, but it's fun to think of other ways of doing it.</p> <p>Angie, I liked #1 best too. That's why I put it first, LOL! Thanks.</p> <p>And thank you to everyone else. I will wear this scarf fearlessly for a couple of more years then, before I feel obliged to check again. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-scarf-question#post-726924 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 22:23:27 +0000 Suz 726924@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I sure hope it is not dated or I am in big trouble. </p> <p>As for you, outfit #1 is GORGEOUS on you. Whatever that colour is called, it belongs to you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-scarf-question#post-726907 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 22:15:53 +0000 Angie 726907@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like outfit #1! And echo the ladies on how on trend that scarf is right now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-scarf-question#post-726867 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 21:18:53 +0000 cjh 726867@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, I like the white sweater - it's cozy and clean looking. Can you try leaving the bottom button or two undone and adding as slim belt? Maybe a light tan or gold leather? Just to give you a waist and give a bit more "dashing" effect? Or a necklace? Something that is neutral (large chunky beads), same color as sweater? and falling midway between bottom of neck and top of "bosom" area? Just daydreaming here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-scarf-question#post-726839 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 20:31:53 +0000 Scarlet 726839@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think that scarf is still really on trend! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-scarf-question#post-726832 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 20:25:43 +0000 pil 726832@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Excellent technique JR, I'll have to remember that! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-scarf-question#post-726810 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 19:59:19 +0000 JR 726810@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>CJ, between photos #1 and 3 I do prefer #1 for sure. I know the cardigan isn't cutting edge fashion, but I do like the brightening factor. I tried some of my other toppers, and the effect was too gloomy, colour-wise, for my taste. Although I think I tried them before I put the scarf on. Perhaps I should re-evaluate.</p> <p>Pil, it's actually a reverse bib. ;o) I am a klutz, and sometimes spill on myself. So I remove my scarves while eating, and use them to cover the evidence afterwards. You see why I wear them so much? They fill several functions at once. LOL!</p> <p>Thanks to everyone for the encouragement. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-scarf-question#post-726793 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 19:45:53 +0000 pil 726793@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm partial to the green shirt on you, maybe it's a bit more subtle? But the white looks nice too. If I wore my scarves like that they would serve more as a bib : ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-scarf-question#post-726770 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 19:29:52 +0000 nancylee 726770@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree that the scarf is a go....not outdated at all in my book. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-scarf-question#post-726768 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 19:28:50 +0000 cjh 726768@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>JR. The scarf is great - adds white to your outfit. I like you in white - maybe it sharpens up your white hair? On the other hand, the white sweater alone is a bit "frumpy" and less feminine looking - I don't want to be harsh - which outfit makes you feel better? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-scarf-question#post-726765 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 19:28:10 +0000 Anonymous 726765@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hope they're not passe yet, I love them, in fact I think this scarf updates the rest of your outfit. Very nice! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-scarf-question#post-726743 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 19:14:52 +0000 JR 726743@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Whew! I am reassured. I always know what I like, but I am not always aware of what is current. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-scarf-question#post-726733 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 19:09:51 +0000 Transcona Shannon 726733@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree that this type of scarf always works - and you look smashing in those grey/white/black tones. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-scarf-question#post-726728 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 19:06:43 +0000 RunnerChick 726728@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree, I think it looks terrific! And you have given me a scarf idea! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-scarf-question#post-726717 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 19:01:40 +0000 Victoria 726717@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>scarves never go out of style and this one looks classic so wear it as much as you want. I think it looks great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-scarf-question#post-726690 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 18:45:54 +0000 JR 726690@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm trying to bring out things I haven't worn in a while, so this deep green blouse (teal green, marine green, still floundering around for a name for it) with subtle black stripes and my checked scarf were the candidates. The white cardigan was added to brighten things. And to keep me warm. The house feels like a fridge, seeing as I am still keeping a couple of windows open a crack at night.</p> <p>My question about the scarf is this: these scarves were very on-trend a few years ago, so much so that I'm afraid it might look hopelessly dated now. Problem is: I still really like it. Do I look silly wearing it out and should I keep it for at-home use only (it's nice not to be concerned about what the world-at-large thinks sometimes) or does it still look fine? Or is it in that inbetween zone where I can pull it off if I wear it with enough confidence even if it looks a little passé? </p>
