Almost too much amazingness to take in at once. &nbsp; I love #10 - the long jacket and the dress... really like.</p> <p>#4 - partial to anyone in a bike helmet! &nbsp;Fun.</p> <p>I'm thinking Quebec over Christmas. Should I? &nbsp;Suz, chime in!</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-in-october-catching-up-plus-nov-2#post-1579887 Tue, 03 Nov 2015 23:20:00 +0000 marianna 1579887@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fantastic! Such great looks all around. And a vacay in Quebec sounds interesting -- I'll have to add that to my "travel maybe" list! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-in-october-catching-up-plus-nov-2#post-1579818 Tue, 03 Nov 2015 19:34:49 +0000 Anonymous 1579818@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a super duper array of outfits! I'm loving the mix of brights and also the more monochrome looks. Love the ankle pants outfits especially the one with your white pants and new longer jacket and I love the spotty Ro and De blouse. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-in-october-catching-up-plus-nov-2#post-1579788 Tue, 03 Nov 2015 18:05:13 +0000 rachylou 1579788@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All good, but I esp love the dress and jacket... Your formula with a twist </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-in-october-catching-up-plus-nov-2#post-1579783 Tue, 03 Nov 2015 17:56:48 +0000 Suz 1579783@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous, every one! The new jackets are going to be workhorses for you. I'll be curious to know which one gets the most wear over time. I think your climate is actually more amenable to them than ours. And those Danier cuties must have thought they'd died and gone to heaven to get to serve sunny you!&nbsp;</p> <p>I like the long Trouve jacket. I might hem the sleeves or possibly narrow them a bit towards the cuff area to make it more jacket like and less coat like. Or scrunch them. :)&nbsp;</p> <p>The blouse in #11 is fantastic on you! And I think the last outfit is my very favourite. So rich and autumnal.&nbsp;</p> <p>Waving at those burnt orange pants, so much better on you than on me!&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-in-october-catching-up-plus-nov-2#post-1579780 Tue, 03 Nov 2015 17:53:27 +0000 MsMary 1579780@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, I looked on a map and it looked too far! Gah!! Maybe I was confused about where you are...</p> <p>*hanging my head in shame* </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-in-october-catching-up-plus-nov-2#post-1579779 Tue, 03 Nov 2015 17:50:33 +0000 Suz 1579779@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG, you were in Quebec and you didn't come visit MOI???????&nbsp;</p> <p>(It's not so far away, you know...)&nbsp;</p> <p>And 3 Danier jackets??? You and I are now tied for Daniers.&nbsp;</p> <p>Okay, now I have to go look at your outfits!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-in-october-catching-up-plus-nov-2#post-1579777 Tue, 03 Nov 2015 17:44:59 +0000 AviaMariah 1579777@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All lovely but my favorite is #11. &nbsp;I love that top! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-in-october-catching-up-plus-nov-2#post-1579770 Tue, 03 Nov 2015 17:09:25 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1579770@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A teal (!!) leather jacket! It looks fabulous on you. The color looks almost black to me on my monitor, but I'm imagining a more teal cast. That outfit is stunning, with the rich color combo and modern floral sweater. And your new high-top quilted sneakers--so fun! As always, so many great looks, Mary. Thanks for the visual feast. It's great to hear you are having such a wonderful time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-in-october-catching-up-plus-nov-2#post-1579726 Tue, 03 Nov 2015 14:52:50 +0000 MsMary 1579726@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, that's one of the Danier jackets in #6! Here's a preview of the others, too!</p> <p>And do you approve of the long black jacket? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-in-october-catching-up-plus-nov-2#post-1579724 Tue, 03 Nov 2015 14:47:13 +0000 Bonnie 1579724@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lots of great looks here, but my favorites are 5, 10, and 12. I guess I like them best because they inspire me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-in-october-catching-up-plus-nov-2#post-1579721 Tue, 03 Nov 2015 14:41:46 +0000 Angie 1579721@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I want to see the Danier jackets!&nbsp;</p> <p>And how <b>FUN</b> that you had a staycation with your man. I'm glad you had a great holiday and lovely birthday celebrations. Pics are fabulous.&nbsp;</p> <p>Super Hero Mary in #7 is strong.&nbsp;</p> <p>Graphic Mary in #8 is hip.</p> <p>Classic Mary in #9 is gorgeous.&nbsp;</p> <p>Retro Mary in #10 is regal.&nbsp;</p> <p>Floral Mary in #6 is fun.</p> <p>Neutral Mary in #12 is super chic.</p> <p>And Relaxed Mary in #11 makes me smile.&nbsp;</p> <p>MISSED YOUR HAPPY OUTFITS!

I'm liking your longer Trouve jacket a lot. Beth Ann makes a good point--maybe hemming the sleeves a tad to shoe more wrist will help it look more like a jacket. I'm guessing it doesn't look coat like IRL because of the fabric, something that's hard to see in a pic. </p> <p>I really like look 8 on you--loving those cutout boots. </p> <p>And I love that your poutine came with a fancy garnish </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-in-october-catching-up-plus-nov-2#post-1579611 Tue, 03 Nov 2015 05:43:39 +0000 Maneera 1579611@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh you gorgeous gorgeous woman! You are always so stylish - be it dressed for work or for vacation. #3&amp;4 are just adorable...love them. You &amp; the GF make a super cute pair &lt;3</p> <p>My favourites from this batch are #1, 5, 9, 10 and 12. You're beautiful in the dress in #10. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-in-october-catching-up-plus-nov-2#post-1579609 Tue, 03 Nov 2015 05:39:52 +0000 JAileen 1579609@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your outfits look great, especially the one with the young guys, and your green sweater. Very very nice. </p> <p>I'm not a fan of bicycling in the rain. I had to do too much of that in college. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-in-october-catching-up-plus-nov-2#post-1579584 Tue, 03 Nov 2015 04:27:34 +0000 Brooklyn 1579584@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are polished to perfection. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-in-october-catching-up-plus-nov-2#post-1579582 Tue, 03 Nov 2015 04:22:16 +0000 catgirl 1579582@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can only imagine how those adorable guys loved you! You look fantastique on vacation, and the only outfit I'm struggling with is the new Trouvé jacket which looks long and boxy. Other than that, these all continue to be at your usual high standard and most importantly, you are having tons of fun. Your gentleman friend has brought a lot of good things to the table and you deserve them all! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-in-october-catching-up-plus-nov-2#post-1579575 Tue, 03 Nov 2015 04:06:15 +0000 Beth Ann 1579575@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Pretty Mary!&nbsp; Love the new items you've added == particularly the Danier and the polka dot blouse!</p> <p>I like the longer jacket, but I wonder about tapering, or scrunching the sleeves.&nbsp; The sleeves make it look more like a coat than a jacket to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-in-october-catching-up-plus-nov-2#post-1579570 Tue, 03 Nov 2015 04:04:09 +0000 Nebraskim 1579570@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks like tons of fun, accomplished with great style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-in-october-catching-up-plus-nov-2#post-1579566 Tue, 03 Nov 2015 03:58:02 +0000 MsMary 1579566@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Shevia! :)</p> <p>Joy, you are so kind. Thank you so much for your thoughtful comments. I know what you mean about the long jacket. I was getting tired of my slim blazers and thought I wanted a change. I ordered this one in black and white and the white one went back because it just screamed "lab coat!" I kind of feel like the black one is my Mad Scientist Lab Coat (in a good way) and although it's not what I'm used to, it's growing on me. I felt like it was more successful in #10 than #8. I will be interested to see what Angie and others have to say.</p> <p>And too funny about the Danier sales guys. I think you're on to something! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-in-october-catching-up-plus-nov-2#post-1579563 Tue, 03 Nov 2015 03:53:48 +0000 Anonymous 1579563@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mary, your posts are always a treat to be savored. The first and last outfits are my favorites. Nobody wears a pencil skirt and jacket like you do.<br /> Vacation: Look at those cute Danier SAs. No wonder the Canadians buy so much leather. Love everything about the new EF sweater and the scarf goes with it so well. You and GF make a cute pair of bikers.<br /> 5: a great outfit and loved that you did a Sharpie save.<br /> 6: woo-hoo! A teal leather jacket! The outfit is happy and fun.<br /> 7-9: 7 is another of my favorites. I love the colors. My eye still needs to adjust to the longer jacket in 8, although I like it better than the very boxy jacket in 9.<br /> 10-11: long jacket, see comment on #8. I think I'm more used to seeing the longer length with a sheath dress or pants. What a happy blouse in 11.<br /> 12: love. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-in-october-catching-up-plus-nov-2#post-1579557 Tue, 03 Nov 2015 03:35:40 +0000 Jaime 1579557@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks like you had a blast everywhere. I love the shot in #3! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-in-october-catching-up-plus-nov-2#post-1579550 Tue, 03 Nov 2015 03:18:33 +0000 MsMary 1579550@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was on vacation in Quebec Oct 10-17 and got almost no outfit photos, although I was very pleased with my cold-weather travel capsule. Then I was home for a week and managed to take but not post outfit pics. Then last week Gentleman Friend and I did a "staycation" in the fanciest suite at a fancy hotel here in town for his birthday (he won the room and several lovely dinners at a charity silent auction in September and we had a blast!) and again, almost no outfit photos. But here is what I have.</p> <p>Most of these are repeats, but there are a few new pieces.</p> <p>1. Very warm day Oct 8, last work day before vacation. These are all oldies but goodies -- I swear this may be my very favorite work outfit.</p> <p>2-4. Vacation: Me with the sales guys at Danier Leather, from whom I bought THREE fab leather jackets, wearing my beloved LL Bean striped top and Target olive vest and new Halogen jeans, which you can't see. Next up is trying poutine (yum!) in new Eileen Fisher sweater, Missoni for Target scarf, Ann Taylor black turtleneck. Last one is bicycling in the cold and rain and having a blast! Note the fab new sneakers, which I bought in Quebec City, and new plaid Kut from the Kloth leggings, which were so cozy and perfect for cycling.</p> <p>5. Wore this to an afternoon symphony performance the day we got back. Banana Republic pants, Target vest, Old Navy top, Ann Taylor pumps (which I saved by using Angie's tip of using a Sharpie on the scuffed toes).</p> <p>6. Wore this to a birthday party. Sweater from NAS, teal leather jacket from Danier, Banana Republic pants courtesy of Suz, BP booties, Target bag.</p> <p>7-9. Various work outfits you've seen a hundred times. The long black jacket in #8 is Trouve and new this year.</p> <p>10-11. A couple from the "staycation."&nbsp; The dress and jacket in #10 are new this year, as is the blouse in 11.</p> <p>12. Which brings us to today. We finally had a little cooler weather so I could bust out my wool pencil skirt along with last year's AT Loft blouse, which I bought at Seattle Shoptember Ingefest. </p> <p>Thanks for looking and for your always-insightful comments! </p>
