Another fabulous outfit. You're on fire! Haha.</p> <p>My thought is, you should go get white trousers you're comfortable in. Unless you're like me, and it's a day-by-day thing whether or not something fits and is comfortable. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-what-i-wanted-to-wear#post-1281325 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 17:23:43 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1281325@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ever since Angie converted me to wearing white jeans, I cannot imagine not having them in my wardrobe...just sayin'... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-what-i-wanted-to-wear#post-1281261 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 16:39:23 +0000 Ledonna N. 1281261@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Go get the new white jeans for the body you have now.&nbsp; I can not wait to see them in action. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-what-i-wanted-to-wear#post-1281243 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 16:22:27 +0000 Beth Ann 1281243@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You piano teacher must wait to see what you will wear each week!&nbsp; Love the layering of the scroll print under the slightly sheer topper.</p> <p>As for white jeans --- even should you return to a slightly smaller size, a white pant with a little slouch will probably still be nice to have!&nbsp; I like my white pants a little looser than my dark wash. </p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-what-i-wanted-to-wear#post-1281176 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 14:42:28 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1281176@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>NZ Nicola</b> and <b>Adelfa</b>, thanks for the confidence boosts! <br /><b>Jackiec</b>, you've got a good point. I feel the same way, wanting different fits for different days and moods. <br /><b>Angie</b>, I thought of Diana, who has some arty and draped style, too. She could be MAD scientist, tee hee!--except 1) I wouldn't describe her colors as moody and 2) scientist is not part of her style! So it doesn't really fit, alas. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-what-i-wanted-to-wear#post-1281158 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 14:29:15 +0000 Angie 1281158@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hah.

See how you feel about new jeans tomorrow...I oscillate day to day especially with the variety of fits out there...some days I want the sausage fit, others I crave uber-oversize. But if you are craving the white ones NOW....get them today &amp; fit your awesome body. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-what-i-wanted-to-wear#post-1280919 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 05:12:38 +0000 Adelfa 1280919@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree, your style is looking amazing </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-what-i-wanted-to-wear#post-1280888 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 04:34:27 +0000 Nicola 1280888@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>MAD glam is perfect! I love those jeans on you and completely sympathise with the sausage dilemma. Fossil belt too...sigh. I want one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-what-i-wanted-to-wear#post-1280852 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 03:38:33 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1280852@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gracie, thanks! Funny, the see-through detail on the back was total serendipity. I've been surprised at how much I like these jeans--wouldn't have thought I'd go for so much distressing. But a trusted friend/boutique owner suggested them, and I like them. I've searched for them in white, to no avail. </p> <p>Shevia, thank you--glad you enjoy them! Like your designer thrift finds, they lend a unique element, right? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-what-i-wanted-to-wear#post-1280829 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 03:20:27 +0000 Jaime 1280829@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Made by Me for the win once again! Great outfit but it the things you make are always my favorite part. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-what-i-wanted-to-wear#post-1280825 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 03:18:10 +0000 Gracie 1280825@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another not to getting white jeans that you can enjoy right now. These boyfriends fit you wonderfully, and with added ventilation, no less :)&nbsp; I love, LOVE the way the print of your top shows through the upper back of your cardi... I always enjoy effects like that. Cardi fit is impeccable! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-what-i-wanted-to-wear#post-1280726 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 01:57:11 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1280726@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Pil. Yes, they could be boyfriends later, right. Actually, if I had planned to wear the sweater, I could have just worn my white jeans. I think I might have been comfortable enough in them with some rear-and-thigh coverage. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-what-i-wanted-to-wear#post-1280724 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 01:55:00 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1280724@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Ceit. I would like to have them today, but we'll see how I feel tomorrow!<br />Jude, great suggestions--thank you! You're right--my white boyfriends are good, but I do like the option of wearing jeans full-length, and mine aren't that long.<br />Angie, thank you! MAD Glam!<br />Sara L, thanks! I wonder how much wear I would get. I think if I found some looser style (or not skin-tight) straight-legs, then I could wear them even if I get back to my normal size, and they wouldn't be a duplicate of what I have. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-what-i-wanted-to-wear#post-1280723 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 01:54:18 +0000 pil 1280723@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree about the white jeans, get some new ones if you think you'll wear them. It sure sounds like it. Maybe later they can be your white boyfriend style. I love the color, shape and waist detail of the cardigan. it would be gorgeous with white jeans! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-what-i-wanted-to-wear#post-1280670 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 01:06:44 +0000 Sara L. 1280670@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you look great here. &nbsp;If you think you will get a lot of wear from new white jeans, I would get some. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-what-i-wanted-to-wear#post-1280666 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 01:04:00 +0000 Angie 1280666@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your Moody Arty Draped Glam style <b><i>really</i></b> suits you. xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-what-i-wanted-to-wear#post-1280659 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 00:58:14 +0000 Jude 1280659@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oops! You already have boyfriends-maybe they're too short? Proportion is key. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-what-i-wanted-to-wear#post-1280643 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 00:45:48 +0000 Jude 1280643@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Firecracker, I totally agree with Ceit! Go get some white jeans that fit well. I've had lots of fun styling mine this summer, they make everything look fresh and I feel like a bit of a hipster! I've had good luck with Skinny NYDJ and a brand called Sandwich. White boyfriends could be another option. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-what-i-wanted-to-wear#post-1280603 Tue, 17 Jun 2014 23:58:20 +0000 Anonymous 1280603@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a super blouse! I love the fabrics you choose. I say go get new jeans if you are jonesing to wear white ones. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-what-i-wanted-to-wear#post-1280596 Tue, 17 Jun 2014 23:45:50 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1280596@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Today I wanted to wear my white jeans. But I just could not bring myself to do it. They are too tight, and I felt like a sausage in them. <i>Both</i> full-length pairs--the straight legs and the more forgiving (!) flares. </p> <p>So I wore my slouchy skinny jeans that I really like and that are really comfortable. I tend to wear them in a little warmer weather, because one of the distressed features actually became a hole, so they are a little drafty near one knee. </p> <p>I wanted to wear the outfit without a topper. But I got cold and added the sweater. [Sigh]</p> <p>The outfit, worn for piano lesson, hanging around home, and out for a casual dinner this evening: grays on white scroll print cotton lawn funnel neck top (made by me); slouchy skinny jeans (Silver); pewter belt (Fossil); taupe linen cardigan (Nic &amp; Zoe); pewter and taupe Mary Jane slingbacks (Fidji); pave disc earrings (Lucky); pewter leather bracelet with a crystal-encrusted oval disk (bought while traveling). </p> <p>Should I go out and find a pair of white full-length jeans that fits the body I have? I do have cropped boyfriends in white that fit. I just didn't want to wear cropped today (even though I rolled these--makes no sense, huh?).</p> <p>Thanks for looking!</p> </p>
