I didn't see that one coming. Thank you That literally made my day.<br /><br />Regarding the hair, of course you're right and you've observed things just as they are, I do try to pull it back as much as possible lately. Reason? Bad haircut *sob*&nbsp;<br /><br />After asking for your advice about the possible new hairstyle I did not get to meet the stylist I wanted, she was on holiday, but resorted to someone who used to cut my hair long ago. Does great cuts&nbsp;technically speaking, but is stubborn and did not listen. So he went too short on the outer layers which is great is some ways, I can see what he achieved by that,&nbsp;but that was&nbsp;not what I wanted. So he lost my business for good&nbsp;and&nbsp;I now really dislike my hair, so try to remedy the situation the way I feel comfortable, i.e. my face not buried under these awkward layers.<br /><br />Sorry for the novel, I just am not happy and need a shoulder to cry on.<br /><br />Btw, Mr. O had mentioned some possibility of hopping to England next month, which means I could make a date with my old hairstylist - which is a good reason in itself to travel IYKWIM. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-on-denim---inspired-by-anna#post-918589 Fri, 26 Apr 2013 14:26:05 +0000 Angie 918589@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ KILLER<br /><br />I like it all, Ornella! From the rolled hems and oxfords, to the popped collar, the scarf and your dazzling smile!<br /><br />I've noticed that you keep tying your hair back. Is it getting in the way or is it too long? I'm a little curious :)<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-on-denim---inspired-by-anna#post-916564 Wed, 24 Apr 2013 17:45:54 +0000 lyn67 916564@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ IMO, this is perfect&nbsp; not only for playgrounds, but running errands, or so many other casuals. Esp love the scarf tied like so. It's new to me, and will try to make the knot for myself, too. Thanx for sharing, Ornel@:-) https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-on-denim---inspired-by-anna#post-916184 Wed, 24 Apr 2013 09:06:45 +0000 RoseandJoan 916184@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Yes, Imelda May! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-on-denim---inspired-by-anna#post-916182 Wed, 24 Apr 2013 09:02:19 +0000 Ornella 916182@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Imelda May? I adore that woman.<br /><br />Great memory Jules That was quite a while&nbsp;ago. And well spotted, I do love hints of retro style, but for now dress like that in my head only.<br /><br /><br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-on-denim---inspired-by-anna#post-916178 Wed, 24 Apr 2013 08:51:14 +0000 RoseandJoan 916178@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ The popped collar with the french twist scarf lends a retro aspect to the look. I have seen you explore this&nbsp;facet of your style before (I'm thinking of a gig with a female singer but the name evades me) and I love the result. It adds an extra dimension to the modern classic pieces. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-on-denim---inspired-by-anna#post-916175 Wed, 24 Apr 2013 08:41:16 +0000 Ornella 916175@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Shorter way of saying/writing<br />If<br />You<br />Know<br />What<br />I&nbsp;<br />Mean<br />&nbsp;:) https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-on-denim---inspired-by-anna#post-916171 Wed, 24 Apr 2013 08:24:55 +0000 diane 916171@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ thanks Ornella, I will try it!<br />By the way, I loved the outfit.&nbsp; I wear denim almost every day and can appreciate lots of blue!&nbsp; <br />Another question, what is IYKWIM?&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-on-denim---inspired-by-anna#post-916169 Wed, 24 Apr 2013 08:17:07 +0000 Ornella 916169@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Thanks diane :)<br /><br />I first folded the scarf diagonally to&nbsp;make&nbsp;triangular shape, then made it into a long strip by folding from the corner towards the diagonal, and finally just tied the loose knot in the middle. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-on-denim---inspired-by-anna#post-916167 Wed, 24 Apr 2013 08:10:33 +0000 diane 916167@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I love your comment that&nbsp;"playground can take anything" !!<br />So, how do you tie the scarf? https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-on-denim---inspired-by-anna#post-916155 Wed, 24 Apr 2013 07:48:14 +0000 Ornella 916155@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Thanks ladies. As a playground formula it worked for sure, but I will be playing with it a bit more.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-on-denim---inspired-by-anna#post-916140 Wed, 24 Apr 2013 06:34:13 +0000 Ingunn 916140@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this, Ornella!

The way you are wearing your scarf is how I wear cotton scarves dampened in the summer heat to keep cool. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-on-denim---inspired-by-anna#post-915589 Tue, 23 Apr 2013 20:16:07 +0000 Inge 915589@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I really like it, Ornella. The blue scarf with white polka dots and the taupe oxfords add just enough contrast against the all denim outfit if you ask me. I bet you got some admiring looks at the playground;-) https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-on-denim---inspired-by-anna#post-915484 Tue, 23 Apr 2013 18:51:41 +0000 Mona 915484@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ In one of Angie's outfit formulas she suggested to pair a bright topper with denim on denim.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-on-denim---inspired-by-anna#post-915482 Tue, 23 Apr 2013 18:47:41 +0000 annagybe 915482@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Aww thanks for the shout out. I don't think the popped collar quite works here. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-denim-on-denim---inspired-by-anna#post-915445 Tue, 23 Apr 2013 18:02:17 +0000 Ornella 915445@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I loved <a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-420-denim-on-denim-inspired-by-angie-pin">Anna's outfit</a> and instantly remembered it when I needed to dress to go to the playground. I think the shiny buttons on the shirt and the pockets clash a bit with the detailing on the jeans, but my chambray shirt which is more subtle and possibly better option&nbsp;is in the washing and I wanted to see how I'd feel in this much denim. And to be honest,&nbsp;playground can take anything, IYKWIM&nbsp;&nbsp;;)</p> <p>Instead of the necklace I wore my new scarf which I tied to look like a necklace.</p> <p>I love this formula and I think I'll experiment with it more.</p> <p>Comments and&nbsp;suggestions&nbsp;for improvements are always&nbsp;appreciated.</p>
