The blouse is so harmonious-looking with the tweed skirt.</p> <p>I think I could use the bag expansion charm too. And warmer weather. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-in-which-i-wish-for-magical-handbags-reality-vs-fantasy#post-1481265 Tue, 28 Apr 2015 01:26:32 +0000 Karie 1481265@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd like to have Hermione's charm too!

Well executed, Diana. I have equal love for both looks, and Killer x2.&nbsp;</p> <p>There is barely a difference between the two looks. You lucky fish - you are just about living your Fantasy Style - weather permitting of course. Boston weather can be brutal.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-in-which-i-wish-for-magical-handbags-reality-vs-fantasy#post-1480991 Mon, 27 Apr 2015 16:55:54 +0000 kkards 1480991@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>in my fantasy i apparate to and from work, so that i get 45 minutes more to get dressed each morning!<br />anyway, here's hoping that the weather warms up soon and you can wear verision #2, althought i like #1 alot. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-in-which-i-wish-for-magical-handbags-reality-vs-fantasy#post-1480980 Mon, 27 Apr 2015 16:36:38 +0000 Deb 1480980@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You definitely need to repeat your fantasy life outfit when the weather warms......it's a gorgeous look on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-in-which-i-wish-for-magical-handbags-reality-vs-fantasy#post-1480971 Mon, 27 Apr 2015 16:26:45 +0000 Elly 1480971@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the reality version better!

Maybe Mother's Day if the weather cooperates. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-in-which-i-wish-for-magical-handbags-reality-vs-fantasy#post-1480913 Mon, 27 Apr 2015 14:08:42 +0000 Staysfit 1480913@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm right there with you wearing boots instead of pretty shoes! No shaved legs yet, plus it's snowing here today! Again!
