A great outfit too, Janet! You sure do rock those gorgeous blue tones. Both with and without coat and bag your outfit looks very pulled together. </p> <p>I hear you on the nails and I think that it's another way of looking pulled together.. especially if just indoors and not wearing coats, bags hats etc... I'm really getting into doing mine more regularly too&nbsp;and I'm after some&nbsp;funky colours&nbsp;:)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-at-home-holiday-party#post-1406362 Sat, 06 Dec 2014 19:00:41 +0000 Angie 1406362@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the way you have blues going through your &nbsp;entire&nbsp;outfit via your nails, jewellery, bag, specs and eyes. That's so very "Janet". You look beautifully chic in #3 and it's good to have you back.&nbsp;</p> <p>Kisses for Tippie, Sophie &amp; Sandy. xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-at-home-holiday-party#post-1406313 Sat, 06 Dec 2014 17:51:47 +0000 lyn67 1406313@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome back, Janet! Teal and turquoise are your statement colors! It all works so well with the blacks, and your complexion. Satin shirt is still lookin great IMO. Love the necklace in nr 1 and the blue nailpolish is so eyecatching and different! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-at-home-holiday-party#post-1406268 Sat, 06 Dec 2014 16:31:04 +0000 E 1406268@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That sweater is gorgeous on you! And you styled it beautifully. I love the shape of the silk blouse on you, even if it's not on the cutting edge of silhouettes. You have so much rocker chic the tailored look still looks uber-stylish! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-at-home-holiday-party#post-1406265 Sat, 06 Dec 2014 16:12:17 +0000 Carla 1406265@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How fab that you could put together something beautiful from your closet, without the stress and panic of last minute shopping. Chiming in with the others that turquoise and teal are signiture colours for you. Beautiful mani. Interesting how a 'way out there' colour can be so classy and elegant.</p> <p>FWIW, I was going to enquire if DH had you doing hard labour at the ranch. You are looking quite fit and trim. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-at-home-holiday-party#post-1406262 Sat, 06 Dec 2014 15:48:05 +0000 Janet 1406262@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Peri, the nail polish is Sally Hansen 580 Black and Blue - I got it at Target. It has an irridescent purple cast in the bottle but changes color a bit in different light. </p> <p>Thanks, all! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-at-home-holiday-party#post-1406247 Sat, 06 Dec 2014 15:13:53 +0000 Peri 1406247@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful! You look great in turtlenecks, and the colors of both are beautiful with your hair.</p> <p>What is that nail polish? I need a medium blue! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-at-home-holiday-party#post-1406244 Sat, 06 Dec 2014 15:09:08 +0000 jackiec 1406244@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are looking GREAT!! You just glow in those blues!</p> <p>I love that silky blue blouse on you. Heh - who cares if it's a wee bit more fitted. I love the silky shine and colour. Cool pairing with those jeans as well. And of course I always love those JCrew turtlenecks. Just wish I had one too ;)</p> <p>Welcome back </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-at-home-holiday-party#post-1406229 Sat, 06 Dec 2014 14:45:36 +0000 Janet 1406229@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My color palette is certainly staying consistent (yet hopefully not boring) lately, isn't it? I'm finding my wardrobe pretty easy to mix and match these days -- the main concern is finding the right mix of fluid and fitted/tailored when pulling items from my closet. Despite my happiness with my wardrobe, when I was getting dressed for last night, I found myself wishing for a fluid metallic sweater like in Angie's post from the other day. The silk shirt outfit is right on the brink of being too fitted for my current preference (and my mid-holiday, too-much-good-food waistline), but it skims *just* enough, and the jeans are stretchy enough that I felt good wearing it. I wore a black cami underneath to help create a smooth appearance too. </p> <p>It was kind of nice that even though I was wearing dark color last night, I stood out a little bit -- most of the ladies were wearing either black or red sweaters. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-at-home-holiday-party#post-1406224 Sat, 06 Dec 2014 14:40:54 +0000 thimblelina 1406224@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, those really are your power colors! Great outfits... (I feel the same when we come home from our little 800 square foot cabin. Our 1500 square foot bungalow feels big! And fancy! Hahaha) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-at-home-holiday-party#post-1406218 Sat, 06 Dec 2014 14:36:18 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 1406218@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The teal satin top is gorgeous on you Janet. &nbsp;It is really hard to find a button shirt that fits that well. &nbsp;Great outfits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-at-home-holiday-party#post-1406217 Sat, 06 Dec 2014 14:32:42 +0000 kkards 1406217@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>love the shine of the teal blouse, it looks great, love it with the textured jeans. and color of the turtleneck is lovely on you!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-at-home-holiday-party#post-1406185 Sat, 06 Dec 2014 11:56:33 +0000 crutcher 1406185@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Close the color wheel...you have the perfect colors for your coloring and hair in the teal and turquoise...Both outfits and colors are just ah..maz...ing on you...Made me smile...I also love the blue nails...which I plan to copy...THX for sharing... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-at-home-holiday-party#post-1406155 Sat, 06 Dec 2014 05:57:47 +0000 Beth Ann 1406155@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What lovely colors!&nbsp; I get a lot of ideas on how to wear rich colors in an easy, sophisticated way from you!&nbsp; I think wearing the teal blouse untucked was a great choice -- allowing it to seem more fluid.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-at-home-holiday-party#post-1406131 Sat, 06 Dec 2014 05:02:02 +0000 Suz 1406131@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Janet, so nice to have you back, and what incredible outfits. Here is proof positive that teal and turquoise are among your most flattering colours! I love the way these outfits show the cohesion of your closet! And they are both perfect for their occasions. #5 is adorable!!&nbsp;</p> <p>That blouse in the second outfit may not have a current fit but nobody is going to care! It looks amazing on you. Plus, you've brought it fully up to date with its companion pieces. Great jeans! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-at-home-holiday-party#post-1406113 Sat, 06 Dec 2014 04:11:05 +0000 Janet 1406113@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm hugging my closet back at home after a few weeks of cruddy jeans, work boots and old tees at the ranch! </p> <p>First outfit, worn today to a celebration for one of my radio colleagues who is leaving after 10 years with the station -- I will so miss him! I wore the JCrew boyfriend turtleneck I duplicated in navy and turquoise, my houndstooth Rich &amp; Skinny jeans, and Ugg Cortonas. Included a pic with coat and bag too. </p> <p>Second outfit, worn for the neighborhood holiday party tonight. I was kind of in the mood to wear a more fluid shirt than this, but I also wanted sparkle or some shine, and i don't have quite the right piece that ticks all those boxes, so I went with this classic silk blouse -- from Ann Taylor probably 4 years ago. It's more tailored than current trends, but I love the teal color and the subtle shine for a not-too-dressy event. Paired with Democracy patterned (subtle metallic on black) skinnies and Fossil booties. Added a necklace that was a gift years ago from my husband for a little extra shine. </p> <p>Also sporting blue fingernails, which keep getting compliments -- I might have to keep doing this nail thing! </p> <p>Feedback welcome as always </p>
