I would hope small children and dogs should not be reading this forum!</p> <p>I was pleased the other day when I tried on size 14 pair of black pants that have been hiding in the back of my wardrobe for the last decade at least.

I think it's a classic outfit, with a twist (thanks to the animal inspiration from Shannon). Love it!!</p> <p>PS - even without the animal, it'd still be classic and stylish </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-animal-in-the-office#post-1048007 Wed, 09 Oct 2013 10:40:46 +0000 Day Vies 1048007@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Frumpy and Deborah <b><i>never</i></b> go together. I love the blouse and the cut of the jacket. I also don't mind that the pants have more room because it gives this tomboy androgynous feel. I think a low-contrast belt would tie it all together. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-animal-in-the-office#post-1047996 Wed, 09 Oct 2013 08:42:45 +0000 Lyn D. 1047996@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very sharp Deborah.<br />We are waiting for some more consistency in the weather aren't we? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-animal-in-the-office#post-1047993 Wed, 09 Oct 2013 08:30:03 +0000 Deborah 1047993@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hil, nice to know I am not the only one. &nbsp;re not trying on clothes that I suspect might have gotten a bit tight... my motto is 'ignorance is bliss"! &nbsp;Of course I know it's not... but hey:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-animal-in-the-office#post-1047986 Wed, 09 Oct 2013 08:00:05 +0000 Hil 1047986@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Deb</p> <p>I don't think you could ever look frumpy or boring but I totally hear what you are saying - those are my fears too! And I also avoid trying things on if I know I have gained weight because I actually don't want to know if they don't fit. </p> <p>I think you look great - the&nbsp;animal print both lightens and adds an edge to your outfit which I love. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-animal-in-the-office#post-1047963 Wed, 09 Oct 2013 06:14:32 +0000 Deborah 1047963@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Ladies,</p> <p>It's that time of the year when the seasons are transitioning and I seem to loose the plot in terms of how to dress. Shannon's post yesterday <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-simple-outfit" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....ple-outfit</a> helped me regain some perspective (thank you Shannon) and hence today's outfit was born.</p> <p>My theme was "simple". I have been neglecting quite a few things in my closet for fear that they wouldn't fit and I have found this limiting and frustrating. (Some things have been tight but others I just assumed not wanting to really find out - do you do this?) I also struggle with combining my love for slightly alternative styling with my love for modern classic. So today I battled no more. I had meetings at work so wore these very neglected straight leg work pants (that are now quite roomy), old animal print blouse and black jacket and shooties.</p> <p>I felt appropriately and smartly dressed for work and liked how this looked. As I self assess, I realise that my two greatest fashion fears are looking boring and/or looking frumpy...hopefully I have avoided both here;)</p> <p>Thanks for looking and your suggestions, observations very much appreciated.</p> <p>xxxDeborah</p> <p>Sorry hid #2 as it was bound to scare small dogs and children;) </p>
