And how can I resist #2--congrats on your EF sweater! That skirt is fab on you, too. The last outfit is quirky and charming.

How did Angie find me out so quickly?!</p> <p>Ok, Angie. I <i>kinda </i>like white. Hahaha! Difficult to the bitter end!</p> <p>I think finding softer constructions has helped - the drapey trend has enabled me. And the sturdiness of faux leather, I feel the skirt might survive a jam donut. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-at-home-at-work-a-victory#post-1279589 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 21:08:20 +0000 Debora 1279589@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You had me with the white on white, Rachy.

And I see on Sierra, she's got a stretch micro twill. I could go for that. So easy. Her shop is all linen.</p> <p>Ok, I exaggerate. It just feels that way to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-at-home-at-work-a-victory#post-1279526 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 19:51:16 +0000 pil 1279526@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Way to stay strong about the shoes! I like your wide leg crops. The designer's name rang a bell - I've seen some pieces on Sierra Trading Post.<br /> <a href="http://www.sierratradingpost.com/stella-carakasi~b~3922/" rel="nofollow">http://www.sierratradingpost.c.....si~b~3922/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-at-home-at-work-a-victory#post-1279518 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 19:42:35 +0000 cciele 1279518@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah, I dunno, your Country Punk credentials may be on the line with the first outfit (which is pretty awesome)! ;)</p> <p>For the white skirt I would also suggest a steamer! Or hang in the bathroom with steam from a hot shower.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-at-home-at-work-a-victory#post-1279513 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 19:35:33 +0000 Ledonna N. 1279513@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rachylou-I see you. Oh man I could not resist. I love them all you look fab. Pic 1 is so fashion forward to me . I use my little steamer to get the wrinkles out. I steam the garment inside out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-at-home-at-work-a-victory#post-1279507 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 19:28:07 +0000 rachylou 1279507@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So a small victory: I refrained from buying a beautiful pair of polished preppy loafers on deep discount. They would have been a total closet outlier and distraction from my focus, and I held firm. Are we proud? Now hopefully I don't rush out one evening this week and go back and buy them. Hehe.</p> <p>Ok. Now for the WIWs.</p> <p>Pic #1: Ancient Marc Jacobs tee, last summer's wide-legged crop pants from local designer Stella Carakasi, faux birkies. Strange Olive Oyl pose. This At Home outfit may be too trendy and designer-y to qualify for Country Punk, but I think it's close. </p> <p>Pic #2: <i>Shhh. Don't tell, Angie. I have actually done a white-out outfit. </i>It crept up on me. Hehe Ok, this At Work outfit consists of new faux leather white skirt (that's probably how the white caught me), new Eileen Fisher sweater (finally, an EF for me!), and new minimalist flats. This is pretty much an unstyled outfit - me just putting on all my new stuff at once, because I love it, while being all puffy headed from an allergy attack (don't look too close at my pic; got huge puffy eyes - KFC would ask me to leave the premises).</p> <p>Pic #3: Making #2 Country Punk by adding big heavy fisherman's sweater. This is all pretty out of place at work, but I've gone and done it anyways.</p> <p></p> <p>p.s. Anyone know how to get wrinkles out of faux leather?</p>
