Felt a little insecure with all the fabric but now that the outfit’s ylf-approved I will try again </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-for-work-this-week#post-1913551 Sat, 28 Apr 2018 00:21:38 +0000 Aida 1913551@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great week! I love #1. How did you end up feeling in it? Pants in #2 don't look dated at all. Really like that those dark elements are navy and not black. A little more color rich. Was surprised to read that the topper in #3 is a shirt, it looks like a jacket! I'd probably just call it an abstract watercolor print </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-for-work-this-week#post-1913395 Fri, 27 Apr 2018 15:51:47 +0000 krissy751 1913395@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#3 is my favourite </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-for-work-this-week#post-1913394 Fri, 27 Apr 2018 15:50:33 +0000 Vanessa 1913394@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They all look great </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-for-work-this-week#post-1913386 Fri, 27 Apr 2018 15:13:42 +0000 Suz 1913386@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the simplicity and clarity of your style. All these outfits work, to my eye. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-for-work-this-week#post-1913369 Fri, 27 Apr 2018 14:43:51 +0000 Liesbeth 1913369@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the validation, spring summer is not my easiest season and I’m so glad I seem to be doing allright.<br /> I would try 1 with a color accent but don’t have anything that would work in my closet right now - maybe later.<br /> Also, I have considered wearing the dress over slim fitting trousers (though not the pair from 3), which would be a first for me! We’ll see if I can come up with something when I’m in the mood for experimenting. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-for-work-this-week#post-1913321 Fri, 27 Apr 2018 13:19:05 +0000 Carla 1913321@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like your style aesthetic very much and all three of your outfits. Would you wear the dress in #1 over trousers from #3 (or other slim trousers) for a tunic/dress over trousers look? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-for-work-this-week#post-1913316 Fri, 27 Apr 2018 13:10:15 +0000 Angie 1913316@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous.&nbsp;</p> <p>#1 is my fave and KILLER. The tonal look with the flat Spring booties is hip and comfy. Very nicely done. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-for-work-this-week#post-1913280 Fri, 27 Apr 2018 10:18:25 +0000 Sal 1913280@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>3 is my favourite - I love the patterned shirt over the black. What a great look!!</p> <p>I do like 1 but agree with Jussie that a bold shoe or cuff might look really good. I do like the dress and think the jacket works with it.</p> <p>I am not sure about the pants in 2 - I think they could do with a tweak - maybe a different belt? I don't know?</p> <p>I hope this is helpful. Not that I am an expert of course. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-for-work-this-week#post-1913274 Fri, 27 Apr 2018 09:48:29 +0000 jussie 1913274@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like 2 and 3. I don’t think the Zara pants look dated. The first outfit has so much potential- and it is nice but I wonder how it would look with a jacket of a different colour or a different neutral? Or even a leopard print pair of boots? Just some tiny detail for a focal point. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-for-work-this-week#post-1913268 Fri, 27 Apr 2018 09:24:31 +0000 Sisi 1913268@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like very much these outfits and particularly the dress+ jacket.&nbsp;Perhaps you would like some color in it? The pants do not look dated to me (but I am no expert)&nbsp;and the blouse is very pretty. </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-for-work-this-week#post-1913267 Fri, 27 Apr 2018 09:12:27 +0000 Liesbeth 1913267@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>1/ my new By Bar oversize dress. It was warm enough so that I could wear it on its own all day. But I tried to style it with a blazer just in case and am unconvinced of the result. Opinions? Suggestions?</p> <p>2/ linen ankle pants by Zara (&gt; 2 years old) with a white shirt. I used to wear this exact outfit with a beige belt and flats, but I had to get rid of the shoes. Thanks to YLF, I was thinking in complements and found an old navy suede belt that happened to match my navy slip ons perfectly. I’m actually pretty pleased with the result. Except: do the pants look a little dated with the midrise?</p> <p>3/ navy cigarette trousers with a thrifted bomber style blouse. It felt allright but I think I prefer the blouse with jeans for more textural interest. Sadly I cannot wear this blouse zipped up because the fabric bunches very badly. But it still looks pretty cool open, no? I love the abstract print that looks like someone tossed some watercolors on a piece of fabric; does that have a name?? </p>
