I find it looks less *you.* It may be the showing of the waistline... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-ensemble-variation#post-1340301 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 17:33:25 +0000 columbine(erin) 1340301@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love that you have a beautiful long leg line and yet it's fluid. You look lovely.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-ensemble-variation#post-1340299 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 17:32:05 +0000 texstyle 1340299@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh Deborah, I love this on you!&nbsp; Really great all around.

I like how the vest over top of everything really stretches you out in a long, lean, black way. Does that sound funny? You look great - and fab booties </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-ensemble-variation#post-1340079 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 11:52:32 +0000 viva 1340079@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this outfit! I have to say, I have not been a big fan of the long vest. I've had a hard time understanding the look as it is not something that appeals to me personally at all. I don't really get the proportion of it. But, here, I love it. It's integrated into the outfit in a way that makes sense to me. And I love the graphic sweater/top beneath it. </p> <p>BTW, I totally understand being trapped in "transitioning seasons funk." I want to stay indoors until summer has gone, so that I can dress for fall. Right now, every day is a seasonal mashup that is impossible to dress for. Shorts and a wool sweater, perhaps?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-ensemble-variation#post-1340076 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 11:48:01 +0000 frannieb 1340076@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>love it and you know I call the seasonal funk the time of year when I am more often then not dressed seasonally inappropriate because I am done and over with the previous season.<br />What I like most about the outfit is how you have slouch and structure at the same time.&nbsp;<br />The new boots make your legs look really long. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-ensemble-variation#post-1340053 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 11:22:36 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 1340053@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this. &nbsp;This is my favorite fit for pants. &nbsp; Loose and draping but with a bit of structure at the waist. &nbsp;I would love to copy this one for fall here. &nbsp;</p> <p>YLF </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-ensemble-variation#post-1340041 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 10:08:15 +0000 Lucy 1340041@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous look! I often don't like vests, they can seem "fussy", but here you are stream lined and slick and it looks awesome </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-ensemble-variation#post-1340039 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 10:01:59 +0000 Sharon 1340039@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this outfit - it has a structured, menswear vibe that really appeals to me, but you have kept the fluidity with the pants and the semi-tuck.</p> <p>I hate this time of year. I hate the cold, I hate the rain and I hate the dark.&nbsp;&nbsp;I am yearning for the sun! My solution has been to plan my summer wardrobe and daydream about wearing it. That always makes me feel a bit happier, even if it doesn't assist with the immediate problem of getting dressed! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-ensemble-variation#post-1340037 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 09:46:06 +0000 lyn67 1340037@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aw, the new booties:-)) Love the silloutte, and that&nbsp; faux tuck is perfection! Love the patterned (graphic?)top, among the drapey vest&nbsp;it gives&nbsp;a great&nbsp; interest&nbsp;to the outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-ensemble-variation#post-1340013 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 06:02:19 +0000 Deborah 1340013@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the lovely encouragement ladies, and Denise you are so observant! I was running training today and needed a little more conservative and a little less edge;) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-ensemble-variation#post-1339997 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 05:29:29 +0000 CocoLion 1339997@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So glad you're loving the booties. &nbsp;They remind me of my Rag &amp; Bone Newburys, which I also consider comfortable given the heel is nearly 4". &nbsp;Maybe not insanely so, LOL, but pretty tolerable.</p> <p>As for the outfit, this one is true to you but slightly more conservative so perfect for those occasions when you do not wish to be as edgy. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-ensemble-variation#post-1339992 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 05:19:51 +0000 Alana in Canada 1339992@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wowsers. I want those boots--but if I remember correctly, they are local? </p> <p>Such a gorgeous top! Spring seems the season for swirls. </p> <p>I with you on the seasonally confused thing: &nbsp;I don't know how to dress for our coming fall weather at all.&nbsp;</p> <p>I hereby dub you Queen of the Highwaisted Pants.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-ensemble-variation#post-1339987 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 04:59:43 +0000 Caro in Oz 1339987@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is lovely Deborah - the booties are fab </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-ensemble-variation#post-1339981 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 04:39:00 +0000 carolbee 1339981@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this outfit Deborah. The pattern on the top is gorgeous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-ensemble-variation#post-1339971 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 03:16:59 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1339971@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>um, Wow?! (That's how it looks to my eye.) Striking outfit on you! I like the way your semi-tuck shows off the flattering pleat detail on the pants. The new boots are proving themselves a worthy addition to your wardrobe. You look so tall. The print on that pullover is a perfect one for you--artful abstract design, and subtle palette. I like the dropped shoulders. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-ensemble-variation#post-1339966 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 02:59:24 +0000 amiable 1339966@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes - looks terrific! &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-ensemble-variation#post-1339933 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 02:08:00 +0000 shedev 1339933@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looking good, Deb.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-ensemble-variation#post-1339924 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 02:01:31 +0000 Aida 1339924@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks great Deborah! Those transitional times are always tough. Glad to hear the boots are working well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-ensemble-variation#post-1339922 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 02:00:38 +0000 Gracie 1339922@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like this proportion play on you, the vest is "captivating" indeed I love your new teardrop earrings too, super simple and architectural, perfect for your style. That top has a fabulous print, I see a large (lucky) number seven on it, do you? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-ensemble-variation#post-1339921 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 01:58:46 +0000 Deborah 1339921@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, cross posted&nbsp;!&nbsp; And trust me my hips need to be controlled lol&nbsp; </p> <p>The booties are insanely comfortable, I am so thrilled, they were such a good find.</p> <p>Good advice re the season change and wardrobe. This happens to me every season change.&nbsp; I may have to be a more organised and at least plan my outfits the night before until I am into the Spring groove.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-ensemble-variation#post-1339917 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 01:55:34 +0000 Deborah 1339917@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie you do know how to give a girl a boost.. thank you.</p> <p>Shevia, I must admit that&nbsp; is one of the thinks I like about this cut of pants along with the semi tuck.&nbsp; The vest is Zara and is very versatile piece. Thanks.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-ensemble-variation#post-1339914 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 01:54:14 +0000 Suz 1339914@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Deb, this works beautifully to my eye. I love the sweeping pattern of the top. I am a sucker for vests. (Love that phrase, "takes my hips captive.") And I really like the slouchy trouser on you.&nbsp;</p> <p>Are the booties comfy?&nbsp;</p> <p>About seasonal change -- I hear you. Spring and autumn are always the toughest for me (especially spring) -- and especially early in the season where the weather doesn't fully know what it is doing, and when I'm sick and tired of most of my seasonal wardrobe but not yet able to wear most of the next season's things. The only solution I know of is to play a bit with silhouette, colour, etc. or bring out a few lesser worn combinations.&nbsp;</p> <p>Or, uh, travel somewhere to another climate. :)</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-ensemble-variation#post-1339911 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 01:51:57 +0000 Jaime 1339911@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The semi-tuck makes your legs look so long. I really like this variation in silhouette on you. Great vest! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-ensemble-variation#post-1339910 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 01:51:31 +0000 Angie 1339910@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How does this look to my eye?&nbsp;</p> <p>Killer to the power of Killer. xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-ensemble-variation#post-1339903 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 01:40:32 +0000 Deborah 1339903@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The vest with sleeveless top is a favourite ensemble of mine but as we are still in our cooler months I am wearing it with a long sleeve top.</p> <p>I am in that transitioning seasons funk where I seem to loose all clarity and am spending way too much time fussing in the morning. Not sure how to avoid it.</p> <p>Wearing new boots, slouchy pants, abstract patterned high low top (semi tucked) and vest. </p> <p>How does this work to your eye? I like the way the vest takes my hips captive and provides some structure. </p> <p>Comments, critiques, suggestions all welcome.</p> <p>xxxDeborah </p>
