Such grace! I love them all, in particular #1. Enjoy your vacation and Seattle, you lucky creature! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-before-i-disappear-for-3-weeks#post-1348713 Sat, 06 Sep 2014 20:08:16 +0000 Anonymous 1348713@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sveta, I can't really pick a favourite. All three are so fabulous and the more I see Fabbers wearing plaid pants the more I fancy a pair for myself too. You look great in yours in&nbsp; #1. #2 is quite elegant and I love the monochrome boldness of #3. Have a wonderful trip and I'm so looking forward to meeting you on the 26th when you&nbsp;get to&nbsp;the hotel in Seattle. Can't wait! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-before-i-disappear-for-3-weeks#post-1348674 Sat, 06 Sep 2014 18:41:59 +0000 Anonymous 1348674@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sveta you look so amazing. You're actually going to fashion week to work as a runway model, right? It will be our little secret. ;)<br /> I love all of these, but the third has stolen my neutrals-loving heart. I can't wait to meet you in Seattle!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-before-i-disappear-for-3-weeks#post-1348559 Sat, 06 Sep 2014 14:58:29 +0000 Angie 1348559@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>(I'm sobbing that you'll be away, but you made up for it by coming to Seattle. <b>20 more sleeps till I hug you</b>).&nbsp;</p> <p><b></b>I'm thrilled you discovered light blue, you gorgeous creature. #1 is Killer to the power of Killer. #2 and #3 are fabulous too of course. But it's SO fun to see the trends and a new colour in #1.&nbsp;</p> <p>Have a wonderful trip. xo</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-before-i-disappear-for-3-weeks#post-1348556 Sat, 06 Sep 2014 14:56:34 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1348556@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am so going to do light blue with my plaid jeans. It looks great on you, as do the other outfits you've chosen. Are you going anyplace exciting other than the Seattle meet up (she says enviously).</p> <p>I was at the consignment store dropping off some items, collecting my loot,&nbsp;and I found a light blue J Crew tuxedo shirt that will be perfect.&nbsp;I would never have even tried a shirt with so much going on in the front before so I thank Angie et all for that recommendation. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-before-i-disappear-for-3-weeks#post-1348551 Sat, 06 Sep 2014 14:55:08 +0000 Alana in Canada 1348551@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My favourite is #2 on you. So soft and pretty. </p> <p>#3 i love for itself. </p> <p>As for #1, plaid pants will take some getting used to for me--but your styling is impeccable. Those white oxfords are breathtaking and perfect for this. You really wouldn't want anything heavier with those pants. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-before-i-disappear-for-3-weeks#post-1348547 Sat, 06 Sep 2014 14:50:59 +0000 Janet 1348547@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great and those plaid jeans are so brilliant on you! Have a wonderful vacation.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-before-i-disappear-for-3-weeks#post-1348543 Sat, 06 Sep 2014 14:48:35 +0000 Suz 1348543@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All three of these are lovely outfits and I could copy 1 and 3 almost verbatim! Sorry about your cold feet. And good luck with the packing for the trip!!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-before-i-disappear-for-3-weeks#post-1348541 Sat, 06 Sep 2014 14:47:17 +0000 Eliza 1348541@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sveta- nice outfits all. &nbsp;Great idea to add color to the tuxedo pants and I am loving number 3. &nbsp;I have the plaid Kuts and take inspiration from the way you are trying a wide range of colors with them very successfully.</p> <p>Have a great vacation!&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-before-i-disappear-for-3-weeks#post-1348539 Sat, 06 Sep 2014 14:42:10 +0000 frannieb 1348539@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sveta - I love all your outfits as always. I am adoring outfit number 2 and will be using it as inspiration for work next week. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-before-i-disappear-for-3-weeks#post-1348530 Sat, 06 Sep 2014 14:27:28 +0000 Tanya 1348530@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fist of all, I hope you have a wonderful vacation!<br />The outfits are all stunning and they all work.&nbsp; The #3 is really good, and I am sorry about cold feet.&nbsp; I guess it is closed toed shoes for work from now on. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-before-i-disappear-for-3-weeks#post-1348524 Sat, 06 Sep 2014 14:13:17 +0000 Sveta 1348524@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>We are leaving on our vacation on Wednesday so this is most likely my last WIW post in September.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>pic 1 Light blue and plaid</b><br />I am having fun trying different color combinations for these plaid jeans. This time I went for low contrast with a light blue, cream and nude. I wore the sweater untucked and did not put on a belt but during day it bothered me that jeans kept sliding down a bit without a belt to hold them up. I think I will always wear them with the belt and semi tuck.</p> <p><b>pic 2 Tuxedo orchid</b><br />Official business casual day at work! I love these tuxedo trousers but find that they are a bit hard to style without going too maximal for my liking. I felt good in this outfit though when I paired them with orchid sweater and cream Zara jacket. What do you think?</p> <p><b>pic 3 Stripes and sequins</b><br />This is quite bold but I hope that minimal black and white scheme keeps it from being too busy. The day was very hot and humid&nbsp;with huge thunderstorms so I decided to wear my ankle strap flat sandals but I regretted this during the day because my feet froze in my office AC. Unfortunately I cannot wear sandals to work anymore :-(</p> <p>This was my (short) week. As usual all suggestions and comments are very welcome. Have a great weekend and see you in October (except those I see in Seattle - SQUEE!!!)</p>
