It looks so easy for you to add layers that work perfectly. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-to-winter-2#post-1732475 Mon, 26 Sep 2016 19:32:14 +0000 Sal 1732475@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great look Deborah. I love the layering - it is sleek. I am also working out how end if I will change my silhouettes - I think columns of colour will allow me to make it work. You have some fuller bottoms- culottes , midi skirts, so I think you can have fun playing around. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-to-winter-2#post-1732358 Mon, 26 Sep 2016 14:31:36 +0000 anne 1732358@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit Deborah, and I'm liking the silhouette experimentation.</p> <p>Weatherwise, I have long considered September to be just a continuation of winter, though with longer days of sunlight (for which I'm grateful) I was surprised though, in Sydney the other week, that it was substantially warmer than Perth, so maybe the weather is different on the east coast.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-to-winter-2#post-1732277 Mon, 26 Sep 2016 09:31:45 +0000 lyn67 1732277@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I too was going to ask about that clip on the dress but then got my answer. Wow, never knew there is such a thing</p> <p>(could you provide a link?)&nbsp;it really makes wonders to that outfit and the &nbsp;the motto jacket is also gorgeous. YLF, as always!!:-). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-to-winter-2#post-1732231 Mon, 26 Sep 2016 03:45:15 +0000 Suz 1732231@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am kind of obsessed with that clip, too. Wow. That is going to open up all kinds of styling wonderfulness for you. I really like the textures here as well and the slight switch up in silhouette is interesting.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-to-winter-2#post-1732193 Mon, 26 Sep 2016 02:01:52 +0000 Jaime 1732193@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks great and I see exactly the minimal/maximal thing you have going on. Monochrome maximal! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-to-winter-2#post-1732167 Mon, 26 Sep 2016 00:33:21 +0000 Barbara Diane 1732167@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very cool look.<br />It is so hot here I can't imagine wearing that now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-to-winter-2#post-1732161 Mon, 26 Sep 2016 00:20:47 +0000 annagybe 1732161@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cool, thanks for explaining the clip.<br /> It seems to be Rick Owens/Alexander McQueen/Vivienne Westwood </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-to-winter-2#post-1732153 Mon, 26 Sep 2016 00:02:11 +0000 Deborah 1732153@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the kind words. &nbsp;I really enjoyed this outfit. &nbsp;I am exploring slightly different silhouettes at the moment ie. slightly fuller bottom and slimmer fitting tops... nothing too far from my 'norm' but just to add a little variety :)</p> <p>And thanks LynD, yes I really do assess the Motto pieces before I make a decision to buy. &nbsp;This jacket has been wonderful. &nbsp;I bought it because in my mind, the styling was very Rick Owens inspired and I knew it would be a major player in my wardrobe.</p> <p>Echo, the clip didn't come with the dress. &nbsp;I call it a Cinch Clip, someone else calls it a 'snap' and I saw this morning on Instagram someone else called it a 'mitten clip'??? &nbsp;One of our members, Sharon, very kindly bought this for me in Brisbane (AUS). &nbsp;I had seen her using one from Dogstar Clothing and I am hours away from the nearest store so she very kindly sent this to me. &nbsp;When I Sharon using hers, I have to confess I became a little obsessed because I could see how it would be such a useful and cool little tool to have in having even more fun with some of my clothes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-to-winter-2#post-1732101 Sun, 25 Sep 2016 22:44:35 +0000 Echo 1732101@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE this outfit! Did you add the clip belt on the skirt on your own, or did it come with the dress? And the underlayer/slip completes the look. Perfection. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-to-winter-2#post-1732095 Sun, 25 Sep 2016 22:23:33 +0000 AJ 1732095@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>There is a steampunk vibe to the outfit that I quite like! &nbsp;Very nice! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-to-winter-2#post-1732092 Sun, 25 Sep 2016 22:18:50 +0000 Lyn D. 1732092@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That hemline is so interesting Deborah!<br />You definitely cherry-picked the best Motto pieces when you where there- the jacket was a great buy </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-to-winter-2#post-1731915 Sun, 25 Sep 2016 15:27:56 +0000 Bonnie 1731915@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your outfits, especially this maximal/minimal look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-to-winter-2#post-1731908 Sun, 25 Sep 2016 15:23:27 +0000 Jane 1731908@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous!

That is probably because you are true to your style and choose each piece carefully to go with the rest of your wardrobe.

This looks perfect. Love those boots. And the day sounds pretty perfect too! I love bazaars like that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-to-winter-2#post-1731836 Sun, 25 Sep 2016 13:02:19 +0000 Anonymous 1731836@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh, lovely Deb! I like your version of minimal maximal. The fact that it's monochrome does indeed help with it not feeling too much. I love the detailing on the skirt of your dress.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-to-winter-2#post-1731832 Sun, 25 Sep 2016 13:00:10 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1731832@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love all the layers in the maximal minimal look-- the upside down v shapes in the front of the dress and jacket complement each other quite well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-to-winter-2#post-1731794 Sun, 25 Sep 2016 08:14:38 +0000 Deborah 1731794@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi All,</p> <p>Hope you are having a great weekend.</p> <p>As of Friday, I am on holidays for a week so I can spend that last week of school holidays at home with Master 13 and DH also has time off. &nbsp;So today we went to a gorgeous town 45 minutes away that we love to visit. There is a little shop that sells locally made soaps which we love so we stopped there, had a lunch at a very cool little cafe and then visited the Castlemaine Bazaar which is a lot of stall holders in an old Mill building. All sellers are either vintage, preloved, or handmade goods. &nbsp;I only did about 1/4 of the stalls as the boys got a bit over it lol.</p> <p>Anyway, as usual with our weather at this time of year, one day is warm the next is cold, the next is wet, and repeat. &nbsp;Today was cool so I did have to layer up. &nbsp;I was originally just going to wear #2 but when I realised how cold it was outside, it morphed into #1:)</p> <p>Thanks for looking. &nbsp;I call this my maximal / minimal look lol. &nbsp;There is kind of a lot going on but it's all black which I think keeps it quite streamlined.</p> <p>xxx Deborah</p> </p>
