No one would ever know you were feeling awful. I hope you feel better soon. I adore the layers here -- and the subtle textural mix. It really adds to the effect.  Anonymous on "WIW : Back to Work!" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-to-work-7#post-1436881 Wed, 04 Feb 2015 01:50:02 +0000 Anonymous 1436881@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ This is such a fab warm weather outfit.

You are looking perfectly stylish in your distinct way as always and your bee necklace finishes the look beautifully. I'm on the same page with lack of sleep....hopefully tonight is the night for a good, long deep sleep. frannieb on "WIW : Back to Work!" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-to-work-7#post-1436400 Tue, 03 Feb 2015 11:52:56 +0000 frannieb 1436400@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ the mix of textures is lovely.

Sorry your day was rubbish though. I fear it is going to be one of those years on the workfront... "challenging" shall we say Deborah on "WIW : Back to Work!" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-to-work-7#post-1436323 Tue, 03 Feb 2015 06:39:07 +0000 Deborah 1436323@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Hi Ladies, Well, day 2 back at the office and I think I will post about that Off Topic!:) A warm day today and after two sleep challenged nights I just wanted comfort and ease. This is an easy breezy layered ensemble:) The dress is a soft crinkled tank style dress, fitted but not body con.  Over that I layered a soft draped tank from Metalicus and then over that a sleeveless drape vest.  The vest and dress are from my favorite little boutique here that have a lot of these sorts of items that drape and wrap and work well with my wardrobe (not as good as my beloved Metalicus tho lol).  Note all layers are quite light. The outfit felt great but I, unfortunately, have felt rubbish all day.  Glad to be home and hanging out with my style buddies:) Don't hesitate to share thoughts on how to improve, add to, or do it differently. Thanks for looking. xxx Deborah
