And I relate to your comments re edgy dressing and romantic. I see some sportiness too.</p> <p>Your hair looks great- healthy and shiny and I love a tousled bob.</p> <p>My favourite here is 2 but I like them all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-in-the-office-1#post-2130700 Tue, 30 Jun 2020 20:42:44 +0000 rachylou 2130700@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I say yes!!

I especially appreciate the love for the gray hair - I am at the stage where I wonder if I am doing the right thing! Thirteen months in and I still have a way to go.</p> <p>Brooklyn - I agree that I tend to like soft, bohemian pieces even though I want to be a bit harder, IYKWIM</p> <p>cjh - they are Born slides, very comfy and soft</p> <p>jenava - some great ideas to shake things up!&nbsp;</p> <p>suntiger and janet - the phone case is a cheapie from Amazon but I think it's kind of fun</p> <p>Jenni - I do tend to be matchy, not total all out matchy but I need things to tie together or I just don't feel good about my outfit.</p> <p>Regarding my style, I think I WANT to be edgy but am not ACTUALLY edgy - haha. It may not even match my personality. Also because I am short and have feminine features and hair I try to offset the femininity a bit but am still drawn to things like ruffles. I will figure it out one of these days. I'll have to do a post and get you all to help me! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-in-the-office-1#post-2130402 Mon, 29 Jun 2020 10:33:07 +0000 Sisi 2130402@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What beautiful interesting outfits!&nbsp; I cannot pick a favourite but I have a slight preference for # 2&nbsp; and # 5. I understand you very well on wanting to be edgier but reaching for comfort over look. You have nice hair! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-in-the-office-1#post-2130355 Mon, 29 Jun 2020 02:50:29 +0000 Bijou 2130355@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You do look great. It is fun to see how lockdown has meant so many people have sidelined hair colour. Your hair is gorgeous and suits you. I like the ombré effect. Great outfits too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-in-the-office-1#post-2130353 Mon, 29 Jun 2020 02:45:22 +0000 Jenni NZ 2130353@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Robin my favourite is actually 4 since I love how the pants and the sandals match, suits my taste. And I’m a fan of olive.<br /> 1 is great as well picking up the black stripes in the cardigan and shoes.<br /> The natural hair colour is looking great, you will be happy when the dyed part is able to be cut off I suppose! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-in-the-office-1#post-2130280 Sun, 28 Jun 2020 17:56:27 +0000 Janet 2130280@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I think your natural hair color looks fab!

I love the loose waves. Your colors are completely different and you wear lights and burgundy beautifully! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-in-the-office-1#post-2130150 Sat, 27 Jun 2020 23:08:22 +0000 Suz 2130150@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Everything <b>Angie</b> said! You look terrific, and I love your new silver coming in!

This year it's been mixing earth tones with my pastels and jewel tones. I discovered that I love red and cinnamon together. And a pop of yellow, which I avoided in the past. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-in-the-office-1#post-2130127 Sat, 27 Jun 2020 21:20:28 +0000 pil 2130127@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Robin, the hair!

I think your style is a bit bohemian. Soft. Romantic. Especially 2, 3 and 5. My favourite is 5. YLF.<br /> Are you going to keep growing out your hair? I think you should. It’s a lovely colour and the wave looks great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-in-the-office-1#post-2129971 Sat, 27 Jun 2020 05:44:32 +0000 slim cat 2129971@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely hair!

Very encouraging!&nbsp;</p> <p>Carla, I am back in the office now. My WFH would be shorts and tees!&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks for the color advice Angie - I have been thinking I might have to change my colors but so far I have been staying the same. I have always worn most shades anyway but it makes sense that cooler tones may work better now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-in-the-office-1#post-2129861 Fri, 26 Jun 2020 18:43:51 +0000 Mirjana 2129861@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely outfits.

I have been reading and following but it is harder to type on my IPad so now that I am back on my desktop I'm back in the swing.</p> <p>My work is very casual, I am in the office of a tool and die shop and work with all men. Jeans on Fridays only but I cheat and wear colored denim as if they aren't jeans, and after being home for 2-1/2 months I feel like dressing even more casually than I used to.</p> <p>Attached are a few outfits from the last few weeks. I'm not really sure what my style is and often wish I looked a little edgier, but find myself going for comfort over looks most days. I wear a topper for the cooler morning and the AC, and sometimes take it off in the afternoons so my outfit needs to look OK with and without it.</p> <p>Anyway, any comments, advice always welcome. Sorry about the dirty mirror and damp morning hair!</p> <p>Oh and bonus pic of my half-grown-out-gray-hair if anyone is curious.</p>
