I hope the stress level diminished a bit for you?<br />I was trying to decide if I like you more in cobalt as in #1 or in red like in #2 and I cannot for the life of me because you are so radiant in those colors it hurts. Just stunning.<br />Oh, and I have a serious hair envy here too, because yours if gorgeous! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-dress-up#post-1079736 Sat, 09 Nov 2013 03:08:13 +0000 catgirl 1079736@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are the epitome of good cheer in these outfits.&nbsp; The only one I'm not fond of (sorry) is #5&nbsp;- the white t-neck and the strong contrast in colors is not my cuppa.&nbsp; Your hair is fabulous! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-dress-up#post-1079678 Sat, 09 Nov 2013 02:16:24 +0000 Beth Ann 1079678@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the way you make simple pieces come alive!&nbsp; Your wardrobe works hard for you, and makes you look radiant! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-dress-up#post-1079663 Sat, 09 Nov 2013 02:05:31 +0000 Ornella 1079663@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all. You are kind and generous, and your comments make me feel really happy.</p> <p>I see what you mean about the last outfit. I've actually initially planned to wear it with black hose with white polkadots - so there would have been white up and down - but those were in the washing. I'll play with this combination more for sure - it's hard to resist two colours that have strong impact to how I feel.</p> <p>Btw, this is not jacket in #1 and #2 but the cardigan (Amy has the same one in burgundy) which I belted to create more structured silhouette.</p> <p><b>Aida</b> :: I've just about fainted!!!

Your strong color statements make me so happy. Of course in #1&nbsp;the cobalt is a favorite -- I love the cut of the black jacket the hem is perfect with the A-line skirt. You are making my re-think my dislike for red with purple. You look wonderful in it. Maybe it just doesn't work for me? IDK either way I think all of these are fabulous and I have to mark this as a favorite. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-dress-up#post-1079127 Fri, 08 Nov 2013 17:09:15 +0000 Lisa 1079127@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely crisp outfits.&nbsp; I'd like to see #5 with a darker turtleneck underneath to tie in the darker hose.&nbsp; Or a lighter hose to tie in the white turtleneck. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-dress-up#post-1079109 Fri, 08 Nov 2013 16:46:06 +0000 AviaMariah 1079109@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very nice. &nbsp;My favorite is #3! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-dress-up#post-1079106 Fri, 08 Nov 2013 16:41:26 +0000 Emily 1079106@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look very&nbsp;chic and cheerful - an excellent antidote to dreary fall weather. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-dress-up#post-1079086 Fri, 08 Nov 2013 16:21:17 +0000 Amy 1079086@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very nice Ornella!

Nothing Earth shattering, but I felt good wearing these. And although it was warm-ish, layered hose are a must.&nbsp;</p> <p>The first outfit was worn on Monday, hubby and I travelled to another city to finalise the details for the house fixtures. We knew we'd afterwards have some free time&nbsp;for a lunch at least and that was the excuse to reach for the necklace to make the outfit more date-like.</p> <p>The rest were worn to the language school, we had a half-term break last week, and it was nice to see the familiar and friendly faces there again.</p> <p>The tunic in #3, btw, is actually the dress too, at least judging but the belt loops which were cut off when I bought it.</p> <p>The dresses in #2 and #5 are the identical style.</p> <p>What worked, what didn't? Thanks for all the input.</p> </p>
