But I cannot imagine where you've hidden <i>anything</i>, because I think you look amazing in every single outfit! Now my toffee? THAT needs camouflage! Seriously, you are my IT, MOTG inspiration.&nbsp; In fact, I am now quite sure I need to shop for a poncho.&nbsp; And grey skinnies.&nbsp; And cool sneakers. And citron.

What peppermint bark? It's well hidden. I love every outfit and can't pick a favorite. Don't you love Angie's posts and Inge's blogger finds for showing us ways that are fun to change our uniforms ?! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-to-hide-peppermint-bark#post-1140768 Thu, 16 Jan 2014 16:23:05 +0000 April 1140768@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wondering if these strategies could be adapted for almond bark...</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-to-hide-peppermint-bark#post-1140761 Thu, 16 Jan 2014 16:17:15 +0000 Peri 1140761@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh peppermint bark! It got me too! And I want to make more. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-to-hide-peppermint-bark#post-1140755 Thu, 16 Jan 2014 16:09:47 +0000 Parsley 1140755@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You've hidden it so well I can't detect it at all!<br />All these outfits are great. I love your handknit sweater- I'm so impressed!</p> <p>I really like your hoodie with blazer outfit, too! That's a look I was lukewarm on initially, but seeing it on you, and Suz, and a few others I'm warming up to the idea. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-to-hide-peppermint-bark#post-1140740 Thu, 16 Jan 2014 15:57:37 +0000 kellygirl 1140740@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for confirming my PB hiding skilz. I learned all those tricks here. The funny thing is, I just discovered PB this year. I’ve always kind of turned my nose up from it--preferring plain dark chocolate. My weakness is the Dove dark chocolate square with the PB topping. OMG, so good. Thankfully, it is seasonal.&nbsp; Glad to hear I’m not the only one carrying around some holiday goodies :)&nbsp;</p> <p>@Karie, Caro, Adelfa, Ceit, Aquamarine, Shevia, Aubergine, Joyce B, E, and Alicat: Thank you!</p> <p>@Firecracker: My hair is getting coarser and wavier as I get older. It is quite naughty some days unless I tame it with a round brush and blow dryer. Some days even that doesn’t tame it! Thanks for the thumbs up on the handknit. I’ve been making an effort to wear some of my knits and being more careful about what I make (instead of making it because it looks good on someone else!)</p> <p>@Cathy: Lol! Thanks! I really liked 1 too. It’s the first time I’ve worn a scarf in a long time. It’s been so mild lately and they seem so fussy. I ended up tying the corners together and making it infinity shaped--much easier to wear. I will be trying that again, I think. Glad that blue/brown worked. That’s the kind of no fuss outfit I’m drawn to--just have to make sure that it doesn’t look too boring.&nbsp;</p> <p>@El Cee: Thanks. I loved Angie’s post about citron and burgundy and really wanted to try it. I would never have thought to pair those colors on my own!</p> <p>@Suz: Thanks. Angie’s posts are so helpful aren’t they. It takes me awhile to try them sometimes but it really helps break up the monotony of my uniform. To answer your questions: Yes, the taupe fleece is the Bobeau. I got it last year and usually wear it layered under my brown poncho. I bought the Medium. It’s a good indoor weight for my climate or outdoor in mild weather. (Sometimes inside is colder than outside.) Most of these were worn as is--sans coat. I did end up wearing the lemming Spiegel over the citron stripes. We’ve had an unseasonably warm winter to date. Normally, I’d pop my trench coat over most of these.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-to-hide-peppermint-bark#post-1140666 Thu, 16 Jan 2014 14:16:48 +0000 Anonymous 1140666@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are the queen of casual chic! &nbsp;My favorite is #2 in the collage, the black boots, teal sweater, striped sweater. &nbsp;Perfection! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-to-hide-peppermint-bark#post-1140647 Thu, 16 Jan 2014 13:53:26 +0000 E 1140647@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your title is hilarious! I would not have thought you were trying to hide anything. (I have a bit of gingerbread around myself.)</p> <p>You look great in all of these, but I think 1 is my favourite. I struggle to style vests, but you make it look effortless! Oh but I love the poncho outfit too! Ok, I can't pick a favourite. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-to-hide-peppermint-bark#post-1140637 Thu, 16 Jan 2014 13:41:57 +0000 Joyce B 1140637@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you look great, your outfits are very nice. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-to-hide-peppermint-bark#post-1140625 Thu, 16 Jan 2014 13:29:03 +0000 Suz 1140625@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was missing you! But I see you have been spending your time well, munching on yummy stuff and hiding it so well. A person would never, ever know what you had been up to!&nbsp;</p> <p>#1 is just fabulous on you -- what a super outfit. Also loving the hoodie with blazer in #2. And I think you riffed off Angie's inspirations brilliantly in the collage --love that funky hand knit!&nbsp;</p> <p>Questions:&nbsp;</p> <p>1. Is that the Bobeau fleece in the collage (#4)?</p> <p>2. When you wear these do you need a coat over, or is this &nbsp;the temperature where you are?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-to-hide-peppermint-bark#post-1140622 Thu, 16 Jan 2014 13:26:57 +0000 El Cee 1140622@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great in ALL these outfits. You really rock a poncho -- I am jealous! I very much like your citron + burgundy combo. I have a similar top and never thought to pair that way… must try. Seeing no residual peppermint bark on you… but laughing all the same. My husband and I just polished off an entire box of caramel turtles last night (a Christmas gift). Today will be a salad day for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-to-hide-peppermint-bark#post-1140620 Thu, 16 Jan 2014 13:26:12 +0000 Anonymous 1140620@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great in all of these, but I think my favorites are the first and the earth-toned striped cardigan in the collage pic. No peppermint bark in sight! Although I sympathize because I think I'm still carrying around the remnants of fondue. And cookies. And cupcakes. And…. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-to-hide-peppermint-bark#post-1140613 Thu, 16 Jan 2014 13:19:23 +0000 Jaime 1140613@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You don't look like you have anything to hide - I love the first outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-to-hide-peppermint-bark#post-1140566 Thu, 16 Jan 2014 12:14:14 +0000 Aquamarine 1140566@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have such a great MOTG style. My fav is 1 and I see no peppermint bark in any of them. I'm trying to hide Christmas cookies here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-to-hide-peppermint-bark#post-1140550 Thu, 16 Jan 2014 11:00:09 +0000 Anonymous 1140550@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay, some Kelly outfits! I love seeing you in poncho- type tops. I like the outfit in 1 a lot too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-to-hide-peppermint-bark#post-1140523 Thu, 16 Jan 2014 06:34:26 +0000 Adelfa 1140523@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What I see is uninterrupted cuteness.

But the outfit that stuck out to me most was the 5th one in #3. Something about the simplicity, proportions and how the brown of the boots and the belt work really well with the blues. Perfection, in my eyes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-to-hide-peppermint-bark#post-1140519 Thu, 16 Jan 2014 06:16:24 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1140519@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Laughing at your title! You are SOOO good at hiding that peppermint bark, that I see no evidence of it. Dorky hair? You are too funny. Again, I don't see it. But I sympathize; my hair pretty much does its own thing, and sometimes its thing is not something I want to take out of the house. <br />I love the handknit sweater outfit!! Love, love it! Aack! It's just stealing the show here, among a string of fab outfits. <br />I was trying to figure out what I'd do differently with the hoody and blazer, because I really like them together, and I think you are right about darker wash jeans--they would look even better. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-to-hide-peppermint-bark#post-1140490 Thu, 16 Jan 2014 05:17:45 +0000 Caro in Oz 1140490@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think all of these look great - &nbsp;love the collage!<br />I know what you mean about when clothes don't feel right though </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-to-hide-peppermint-bark#post-1140424 Thu, 16 Jan 2014 03:30:13 +0000 Karie 1140424@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the poncho type sweaters in #3. I think all your outfits look fab! I don't see any evidence of too much peppermint bark </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-to-hide-peppermint-bark#post-1140423 Thu, 16 Jan 2014 03:27:09 +0000 kellygirl 1140423@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think I'm pretty good at it too. Based on my recent dressing struggles, I've decided that all of the peppermint bark I ate in December decided to settle in the middle (of January too.) I'm back to taking pictures because I've had such trouble getting dressed--probably because everything fits just a little off.&nbsp;<br />1.) New sized up Gap skinnies in grey to replace the grey moto jeans I tossed last year.<br />2.) Hoodie with blazer. I finally found the hoodie that will fit under the blazer and I'm rather "Meh" about it. I think it needs dark wash bottoms and my hair looks dorky. I've worn it under my navy bomber and that one really works. No photo right now though.&nbsp;<br />3.) Collage of random outfits. The hand knit sweater reminded me of a sweater that Angie blogged about in her "reinventing the skinnies" post (see photo 4.)&nbsp;I was trying burgundy jeans with citron (like Angie's blog post, photo 5.) Not sure that one worked but I wore it anyway and felt pretty good.&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks for looking and listening to my ramblings! Comments and criticism welcome.&nbsp; </p>
