I am so happy for her - and for you too. Way to go - like mother like daughter, heh? :-)<br />Love your interpretation of Angie's ensemble. These white jeans were total workhorses for you, weren't they? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-gingham-white-with-earthy-accents#post-1502072 Sat, 06 Jun 2015 03:18:51 +0000 Suz 1502072@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all! We had a fun supper and DD is on top of the world. Now to buy her an outfit for the gala in September. Oh, and did I say that she does NOT DO DRESSES? We will be suit shopping...</p> <p>Karie, I LOVE my Diana skinnies. They were one of my very first YLF approved purchases and Angie picks. That would be four years ago -- and as you see, they are still going strong. No signs of wearing out -- and I have worn them a lot. They do stretch out a bit. At the moment that is a good thing for me, since I'm up a few pounds. But even when they stretch, the fit is good. They are not calf-sucking skinnies. Yay! They work great rolled up boyfriend style or full length. Of course I'm a lot shorter than you so I don't know if they'd be the right length for you.&nbsp;</p> <p>They are TTS relative to Gap, BR, etc., i.e. I wear the same size in those brands.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-gingham-white-with-earthy-accents#post-1502058 Sat, 06 Jun 2015 02:50:28 +0000 Debbie 1502058@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am so excited for your daughter.<br /> Your outfit is wonderful.

The little row of buttons in white really add something. Cute with those shoes. That's great about your daughter getting noticed for her writing. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree as they say. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-gingham-white-with-earthy-accents#post-1501875 Fri, 05 Jun 2015 21:15:48 +0000 donnat 1501875@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, you must be so proud.

Few people can make gingham look glamorous. You just did. Isn't Angie so right about using the Okalas? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-gingham-white-with-earthy-accents#post-1501862 Fri, 05 Jun 2015 20:20:13 +0000 Gaylene 1501862@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ah, you must be so proud of your daughter to have made it to the finals in her category. And, being a writer yourself, you KNOW what goes into this kind of achievement, so that must make her success even sweeter for both of you. </p> <p>Oh, and by the way, your outfit also looks great. I've such a soft spot for gingham in the summer, especially when paired with white. Your version is a perfect example of a crisp, modern way to wear gingham that is miles away from its more common country/western cousin. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-gingham-white-with-earthy-accents#post-1501861 Fri, 05 Jun 2015 20:20:01 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1501861@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Excellent interpretation, and what great news for your daughter! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-gingham-white-with-earthy-accents#post-1501857 Fri, 05 Jun 2015 20:14:29 +0000 Tanya 1501857@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great rendition Suz, especially fun with the shoes.&nbsp; Congrats to your daughter! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-gingham-white-with-earthy-accents#post-1501855 Fri, 05 Jun 2015 20:03:02 +0000 Suz 1501855@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Carter,</b> I wore a similar outfit but with cranberry booties and a different belt in the fall. It was too cool then for the open Okalas. It's fun to get a chance to wear those.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-gingham-white-with-earthy-accents#post-1501854 Fri, 05 Jun 2015 19:58:40 +0000 Helena 1501854@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks great Suz! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-gingham-white-with-earthy-accents#post-1501852 Fri, 05 Jun 2015 19:56:38 +0000 carter 1501852@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Perfect rendition! Have you worn this combo before?</p> <p>Congrats to your daughter!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-gingham-white-with-earthy-accents#post-1501849 Fri, 05 Jun 2015 19:50:56 +0000 deb 1501849@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, I call that gingham, lol. And that is so exciting about your daughter. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-gingham-white-with-earthy-accents#post-1501844 Fri, 05 Jun 2015 19:32:54 +0000 Suz 1501844@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>When I made my comment in response to this morning's blog about not owning a summer-worthy gingham top, apparently I hadn't had any coffee. ;)&nbsp;</p> <p>Of <b>course </b>I have a gingham top! Sheesh! I love it! I now own 3 of these Thomas Mason J. Crew shirts and I adore them.&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks for the inspiration, <b>Angie</b>. I am wearing this outfit to a celebratory family supper. It has been a week of communications snafus, lost cash, many, many little annoyances (including ongoing arguments with Zara about my never-delivered order) and too, too many <b>details</b>. (Ever have those weeks?)&nbsp;</p> <p>But -- on a happy note: My DD is one of two finalists in her age group in the Kingston WritersFest contest!! Judging was blind, by strangers who do not know me or her or our connection. So there was absolutely no nepotism involved. It is all on her own merit. She did not ask me for any help until she was ready to submit -- at which point I did a final check for her spelling and we brainstormed a bit about a title. I am so excited for her!! </p>
