I never did see that blog post. It helps explain why the knot works -- and it does really work. Otherwise, this green dress is a sack on me. </p> <p><b>Indigoprint</b>, oooo! I think I have seen that knitting book? I love that you have knit some Outlander items </div><div><br /></div><div><b>Irina and Kate</b><b></b>, I felt both inspired and hysterical at the Prada shoes with the tractor. I grew up rural, with plenty of farming family and friends. I cannot imagine be-bopping around a farm in those Prada shoes lol!!! I guess if I was drowning in money and I could just toss the Prada shoes once the poop got to them... but yeah. haha! Though it still inspires me for some reason. </div><br /><b>SarahD8</b>, I very much want to try and find "everyday Poldark/Outlander." Like you said, it does all seem to get smooshed into preppy. And I'm not preppy, much as I love RL's tweed and sweater vests.&nbsp;<div><br /></div><div><b>Roberta</b>, thank you for the feedback and the chicken love!! This is our first time with chickens. I didn't handle the Wyandottes much as chicks; they were skittish. I regret not handling them more, as they are still skittish. Our Orpingtons and Barred Rock are super friendly and fun though. Actually, my Barred Rock could honestly be an indoor pet. She is super friendly and delightful.&nbsp;</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Sisi</b>, thank you! I didn't even notice how the jacket and chicken coordinated. But they do! :D&nbsp;</div><div><br /></div><div><b>kkards</b>, oh that's hilarious! We have quickly found out that our chickens are definitely um... chatty. Especially in the morning. We have an automated door, set to open with sunrise. But if they see our blinds open foe that, they sit in their coop and chatter up a storm. I'm sure our neighbors can hear it.&nbsp;</div><div><br /></div><div><b>RunCarla</b>, ooooh!!! I haven't seen this movie but oooomgosh! I love the costuming. It is exactly what I love: kind of 1940s country British lady.&nbsp;</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Helena</b>, what a fantastic idea re: pairing the sweater and my dress! I can't believe I didn't think of it myself. I will def try it and report back.&nbsp;</p> <p></div><div><b>Jaime, Dee, Janet, BlueJay, Joy</b>, thank you so dearly, my fab friends!! It's so lovely to know both my green dress and my chickens are such a hit :D&nbsp;</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-chicken-lady-chic#post-2344270 Wed, 15 Nov 2023 00:53:15 +0000 Ket 2344270@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Late to reply! It has been a busy start to the week eek! Thank you for all the dress and chicken love, my dear fabbers &nbsp;♥ I really love this green. This is the only item I have in it, and I want to find more of it for sure!<div><br /></div><div>I will post again to ask for advice and help. I really want to see if there is a way to make that British Poldark/Outlander style an everyday reality--without looking like I'm in full cosplay costuming. There is a fine line perhaps??&nbsp;<br /><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div></div></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-chicken-lady-chic#post-2344256 Wed, 15 Nov 2023 00:31:45 +0000 Anonymous 2344256@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Chic chickens and lady. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-chicken-lady-chic#post-2344224 Tue, 14 Nov 2023 19:36:43 +0000 Helena 2344224@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this look for you!

That green is so gorgeous on you, the Wellie boots are SUPER fun, your makeup is impeccable as ever and the earrings add the perfect touch of contrast. Adorable chickies too!</p> <p>I very much identify with that pull towards not Ralph Lauren exactly but wild Outlander landscapes. Tromping on the moors, not attending a polo match. It can be a tough line to walk, especially in the US (where I think a lot of those references tend to just get flattened into "preppy") but worthwhile to try, IMO! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-chicken-lady-chic#post-2344118 Tue, 14 Nov 2023 00:19:14 +0000 Kate 2344118@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look beautiful in green. The wellies are cute and love your chicken pics.</p> <p>I grew up on a farm, so the tractor pic gave me a good giggle. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-chicken-lady-chic#post-2344117 Tue, 14 Nov 2023 00:00:50 +0000 Anonymous 2344117@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aww!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-chicken-lady-chic#post-2344116 Mon, 13 Nov 2023 23:56:35 +0000 Irina 2344116@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love you in green!

Not a ton yet; they’re in a closed run that makes it difficult to photograph. But here are a few &lt;3 I don’t have a good photo of our Golden Wyandottes; they’re skittish and don’t usually let me pick them up. Our other chicken breeds are Buff Orpington and Barred Plymouth Rock. They’re all heritage breeds. My husband and son gifted them to me for Mother’s Day this year.</p> <p>Thank you for the green feedback! I really want to find more of this green. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-chicken-lady-chic#post-2344110 Mon, 13 Nov 2023 22:02:24 +0000 Anonymous 2344110@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That green is great on you- really brings out your eyes! Now where are the chicken pics? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-chicken-lady-chic#post-2344109 Mon, 13 Nov 2023 21:58:32 +0000 Ket 2344109@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Today was a day I needed simple and easy; I was also felt inspired by all of the 2010s Rowan Knitting and other editorial stylings showcasing models in silk dresses, tweed jackets, woolen knits, and wellies. There’s a certain appeal to it, though, we know a silk dress would never hold up in real life. Nevertheless, I am taking <b>Angie’s</b> recent advice to me: you are the boss, not the clothes. So comfy and whimsical it is. I put the effort into my makeup today. I wish I had a good, handknit sweater to pair with my outfit. But I’m still sorting out my woolens after the environmental issue. </p> <p>Amazon dress<br /> Western Chief chicken print wellies</p> <p>Makeup: ColourPop Wild Child eyeshadows. Metallic brown eyeliner. YSL Chili Tounique sheer oil lipstick. 12 Blueprints Baha blush. </p> <p>Earrings were a gift and are sterling silver and Swarovski crystal. My ears are healing from one too many days in a row of cheap earrings. Normally would wear more jewelry, but my hens peck at shiny things. Earrings are my safest bet. </p> <p>What do you think??? I stepped outside my comfort zone. I didn’t wear the wellies indoors because I actually do use them for hen house chores. (Eww!) But they’re so fun I wish I had bought two pairs. I’m not normally of the British Countryside, Ralph Lauren aesthetic. But I also really love Outlander, Poldark, and the UK. Generally, I like wild, romantic, historic type settings and clothing. Todays outfit is my ode to that. </p> <p>PS Bonus photo of my first dozen eggs! my hens are finally laying, and it’s such a treat to have fresh eggs. </p>
