Classic works best for me, particularly at work, but also at home.&nbsp;</p> <p>Thank you <b>Lesley</b>!</p> <p><b>RunCarla</b>, I have just the light cardigan on beneath but I can very easily wear it with jackets under the trench and that is perfect, really. It is good to know that oversized is a street trench, thank you!</p> <p>Thank you <b>CardiffGirl</b>, it does just feel so big! But it keeps me dry and I can load up the layers! I think it would be costly.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Angie</b>! Thank you so much! Killer - yay! I love the earth tones very much more now than I have ever done!</p> <p>Thank you <b>Slim Cat</b>. I think it is difficult to know where I would stop really on the alterations, I was thinking the length and the sleeves a bit too. But having had everyone's comments, I will probably stay with it is at the moment.&nbsp;</p> <p>Thank you <b>Suz</b>! I love the jumper, because the crop fit just is perfect! It is super when you find something that fits just right.&nbsp;</p> <p>Thank you <b>Barbara Dianne</b> and <b>Catherine</b>. </p> <p>Thank you <b>Joy</b>, wise words about being able to wear a lot under. </p> <p>Thank you <b>KellyGirl</b>, that is so kind. Thank you also <b>Sal;</b> that is a great point, in motion, it works better. &nbsp;</p> <p>Thank you <b>Shevia</b>. I love thrift shopping, and this is a great find.&nbsp;</p> <p>Thank you <b>RachyLou</b>. Definitely relaxed - it is the weekend! Yep, collective wisdom is leave the trench, so that is decided then! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-friday-and-saturday#post-2101389 Sun, 23 Feb 2020 06:03:57 +0000 rachylou 2101389@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You're looking relaxed Everybody says leave the trench...

Your ring is lovely and unusual. I cannot see the culottes but the soft grey of the jumper is a great neutral on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-friday-and-saturday#post-2101332 Sat, 22 Feb 2020 23:43:12 +0000 catherine 2101332@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So, so chic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-friday-and-saturday#post-2101320 Sat, 22 Feb 2020 22:17:19 +0000 Barbara Diane 2101320@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The ring is fab. I’m a big jewelry fan. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-friday-and-saturday#post-2101241 Sat, 22 Feb 2020 16:20:28 +0000 Suz 2101241@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Trench is amazing!! I love it. Yes, a bit oversized but it looks fully intentional. Such a great colour for you.&nbsp;</p> <p>Love the bag, too.&nbsp;</p> <p>These are all gorgeous pieces. Your ring is lovely! So is the new jumper and the dress.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-friday-and-saturday#post-2101238 Sat, 22 Feb 2020 16:01:21 +0000 slim cat 2101238@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>New pieces look great - love the dress with boots and bracelet, so pretty on you.<br />The trench is costly to alter. Would you consider shortening only or taking in on sides? It's just a smidge too bulky in the waist but you wear it so well . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-friday-and-saturday#post-2101237 Sat, 22 Feb 2020 16:00:00 +0000 Angie 2101237@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, <b>Jane.</b> I love your KILLER style, and have missed it! Always pretty, pulled together, chic, polished, and flattering. I love your mix of high and low, mix of classic and trendy, and do you ever rock those earth tones!</p> <p>The trench looks fashionably oversized. I'd leave it.&nbsp;</p> <p>Toffee tote is SUBLIME with your hair and style!</p> <p>Cardi is a fun trendy look over frocks. Nod to the '90s.</p> <p>I love the way you semi-tuck!&nbsp;</p> <p>And clever hubs getting you a beautiful ring for those very pretty hands </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-friday-and-saturday#post-2101207 Sat, 22 Feb 2020 14:30:30 +0000 Cardiff girl 2101207@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes oversized is a”look” at the moment but I know what you mean about feeling swamped.l suppose it depends how much it’s going to cost to alter it and how good the outcome is likely to be.It would be shame not to wear it as it’s such a fab colour for you.l love your new jigsaw purchases and that Whistles dress looks like it was made with you in mind.. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-friday-and-saturday#post-2101194 Sat, 22 Feb 2020 13:19:51 +0000 Carla 2101194@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think oversized works in this case. &nbsp;Also, leaves room for wearing it over a jacket on a cool day. (Maybe you already have a jacket under?!).&nbsp;<div>Purposefully oversized was prevalent in ‘street style’ photos from the runway shows. &nbsp;<br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-friday-and-saturday#post-2101188 Sat, 22 Feb 2020 12:56:28 +0000 Lesley 2101188@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Okay, everyone's bringing their A-game today! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-friday-and-saturday#post-2101184 Sat, 22 Feb 2020 12:41:44 +0000 Helena 2101184@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh wow, beautiful, beautiful, and then more beautiful. Such classic and sophisticated pieces. I do agree the jacket could be altered a touch to get a classic fit, but given that "oversized and belted" is a bit of a look right now, why not wear it like that a while and when that silhouette feels tired for you, look into alterations then. That way you stretch out the expense, and it will be like having another new coat when the time comes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-friday-and-saturday#post-2101179 Sat, 22 Feb 2020 12:13:13 +0000 Jane 2101179@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello lovely Fabbers, a couple of WIW -&nbsp;</p> <p>Yesterday, the Burberry trench, which I am thinking of having altered. I feel a little bit swamped by it, but I am wary of investing in the alts and then not wearing it as much as I thought. I'm wearing with a new camel bag from Jigsaw, it looks a little bit big but it isn't as big IRL. It is a super size for my commute. </p> <p>I had a little bit of a spend in Jigsaw, and purchased this bag, along with this merino Jigsaw black cardigan. Kind of loose but lovely fabric. &nbsp;</p> <p>Then a Whistles dress which is an easy wear, and doesn't crease.&nbsp;</p> <p>Then today, I am wearing a grey jumper from NewLook - fab value and lovely cropped length for me. With CM culottes. Today I'm wearing with the tie. Then a lovely ring DH bought for me some time ago.&nbsp;</p> <p>All comments welcome especially if you think the trench is worth altering. Thank you for looking! </p>
