The bag is cute. I love the shape. Crumbs, leggings and jeans, it is always windy up on that hill!  lyn67 on "WIW - OBG" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bog#post-2152478 Thu, 05 Nov 2020 13:52:09 +0000 lyn67 2152478@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ We all have to pop out  buying fruits only at some moment and I  would say you look great all  bundled up for the cold and still having an hourglass  sillhoutte -which is possible only if the items fit well- so you did a great fashion job IMHO. I   always love a sentimental item and wow yours has a lovely story!

I am sooo looking forward to purge those masks!!!! Torontogirl, thanks!!! AJ, thanks!! Joy, thanks! I am glad you liked the scarf :). Thanks for the kind wishes on the weightloss, it's a challenge to keep fit during lockdown but as you said it is a journey! Shevia, thanks, too kind!!! Jaime on "WIW - OBG" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bog#post-2152387 Thu, 05 Nov 2020 03:19:55 +0000 Jaime 2152387@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Love this! Who says it is not stylish? First of all the structured bag with the scarf is juxtaposition excellence, and the rest of the outfit makes total sense and allows those pieces to shine! Keep warm! Anonymous on "WIW - OBG" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bog#post-2152369 Thu, 05 Nov 2020 01:10:04 +0000 Anonymous 2152369@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ What a wonderful scarf! I love the purple sneakers which give a touch of whimsy. The important thing is being warm enough. The weight or at least your sizes seem to change faster, as you lose a bit more. Best of luck on this journey.. AJ on "WIW - OBG" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bog#post-2152367 Thu, 05 Nov 2020 00:59:10 +0000 AJ 2152367@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ The bag is a FAB find and the scarf is beautiful and even more so now that I read about it.

Suz on "WIW - OBG" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bog#post-2152275 Wed, 04 Nov 2020 20:57:01 +0000 Suz 2152275@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Wow, you have a scarf your mother made 60 years ago?! That's the best OBG ever! I love the pink sneakers, too.  Also, as I read your post, I thought -- hmmm, none of us (probably) can claim to own a mask older than 2020! I wonder if those will be OBGs someday, too....

She's very gifted, if only I'd be half as good! Runcarla, thanks! I am planning to lighten up my outfits and will indeed try to use this combination more often Carla on "WIW - OBG" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bog#post-2152254 Wed, 04 Nov 2020 19:41:46 +0000 Carla 2152254@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ The scarf is gorgeous and a brilliant pairing with the bag.  Repeat this accessory combination again, and again!

Glad you liked the scarf and the bag :) Irina thanks! I look after the scarf but I think the material is very good, I doubt I would be able to find a similar yarn nowadays. Sal, thanks! Glad you like the coat and the bag Structured bags are a lot easier to dress, in my opinion.... Kellygirl thanks! I try to buy the best quality I can afford and take care as best as I can for my clothes. Some items were on an holding zone as I was a bit heavier, the trousers had little use over the last 2 years...  Angie, too kind! thanks! Indeed, that scarf is priceless for me. kkards, thanks! I am trying to add some variety without buying new thiings, the pink shoes are soooo confy for running errands! kkards on "WIW - OBG" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bog#post-2152224 Wed, 04 Nov 2020 17:46:00 +0000 kkards 2152224@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ How wonderful to see you post! and how wonderful that you have a handmade scarf that has so much family history.  Love the pop of color from the sneakers/trainers. I love using footwear to add some fun/unexpectedness to an outfit.

And an accessory you know Mum likes kellygirl on "WIW - OBG" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bog#post-2152186 Wed, 04 Nov 2020 16:27:13 +0000 kellygirl 2152186@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ More love for how the structured bag really amps up the outfit--that and the pink trainers. You look perfectly outfitted! Impressed with the longevity of your clothes! Sal on "WIW - OBG" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bog#post-2152178 Wed, 04 Nov 2020 16:15:02 +0000 Sal 2152178@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Nice look and a smart coat and structured bag are perfect for dressing up casual looks.

Anonymous on "WIW - OBG" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bog#post-2152172 Wed, 04 Nov 2020 16:02:44 +0000 Anonymous 2152172@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I especially like the combination of the the purse and the scarf. And the humor of the purple sneakers with an otherwise neutral outfit. Lovely outfit and lovely supporting text.  Minaminu on "WIW - OBG" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bog#post-2152159 Wed, 04 Nov 2020 14:40:57 +0000 Minaminu 2152159@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ WIW & BOG I really liked RunCarla post and decided to participate to the challenge! Sustainability has always been important for me and it has become even more important during these strange times. This is not a stylish outfit, I was only going to buy some fruit! Coat Halluber, 8 years old. Sleeves and coat length were shortened for better fit and hiking, I am slowly loosing some weight and hope it will be a better fit in the next months, even if it's not the warmest coat! White scarf made by my mum 60 years ago. The story is that she did it in one night whilst she was looking after my grandmother. It has a great sentimental value. Purple linen mask, homemade last feb. White Sandro jumper (5 years old) and Uniqlo heattech top underneath which is also 5 years old. Jaeger trousers, 10 years old, slowly slowly I am getting back in. I have to confess that I am also wearing a pair of HM leggings underneath, it was very windy today! Purple running shoes, about 7 years old. Grey handbag, replacement of the big blue one.
