I like how bold it is so it doesn't need much going on. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-influenced-by-angie-ornella-going-minimal#post-480694 Sun, 04 Dec 2011 15:19:29 +0000 Kappy 480694@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love these looks! You have a great coat collection, and your hair is looking fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-influenced-by-angie-ornella-going-minimal#post-479667 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 20:59:09 +0000 catgirl 479667@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#1 is so perfect in my book! I am going to copy it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-influenced-by-angie-ornella-going-minimal#post-479663 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 20:57:34 +0000 Marley 479663@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WOW Denise! These are spectacular! I love that shawl in #2 - so abstract and unusual and interesting to look at! Black and white stripes with cobalt is one of my favorite looks also - so #1 just makes me smile. I LOVE your fall colors - where I live, we get very little of that. Just sunshine all of the time . . . so boring (I'm joking!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-influenced-by-angie-ornella-going-minimal#post-479644 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 20:46:55 +0000 Vicki 479644@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are wearing "minimal" as though you have for years and it looks so nice on you. I love that sweater coat in #3 and would wear 1 and 3 any time and any place, but they look especially beautiful in your autumn setting. Inspiration is a good thing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-influenced-by-angie-ornella-going-minimal#post-479631 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 20:39:53 +0000 CocoLion 479631@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had to "post and run" yesterday and to top it off, had a power outage all evening yesterday so no YLF!</p> <p>I am thrilled with the quantity and quality of responses!</p> <p>Rae &amp; Midwest Girl &amp; Debora &amp; Clearly Claire &amp; Suz -- the sweater coat is from TJ Maxx. It is Italian -made; my bf thought $59.99 was too much but I felt like it was a steal. It is holding up well and I find myself reaching for it frequently.</p> <p>Modgrl Rita - Yes the sweater coat is the replacement for the overwhelming Rachel Roy. New coat was 1/3 of the price too!</p> <p>Ana &amp; Queen Mum &amp; MorethanBeige (love that name!) &amp; Kimlee -- Outfit #1 is so easy to wear. I saw a petite girl in SF wearing the same H&amp;M sweater as a dress with tall boots. A look I will leave for the very young I think.</p> <p>Jonesey &amp; Shannon &amp; Parsley -- I am getting a lot of use out of the cape/shawl piece. Although I struggle with how to wrap it around myself, as you can see from the picture. </p> <p>Also Janet -- I have soooo many pendants, bracelets etc. I love to put them on, but don't always like how they clutter up an outfit. That's what I'm working on now, how to strike that balance!</p> <p>JennyAnn -- I am drawn to clothing with a bold silhouette right now, that may be why I am going more minimal because bold items don't need a lot of extra help.</p> <p>Ornella -- I read somewhere that this was a good year for outerwear so I've stocked up. (The cape was under $30 BTW.) I have paid up to $300 for one coat, but I believe that outwear adds so much to our look in the winter, and if we end up wearing our coats a lot, then they aren't really that pricey.</p> <p>Lisa &amp; Angie &amp; Michael Kane &amp; Freckles -- Thank you for looking and commenting on my thread!</p> <p>ETA -- Alicat -- no I was not going to my happy naughty place in that picture, could you tell I was faking it? We women all need to fake it every once in a while (ehem) ; D </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-influenced-by-angie-ornella-going-minimal#post-479629 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 20:38:29 +0000 Freckles 479629@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stunning! I love your WIW's and these are absolutely gorgeous outfits on you. Each piece in each one makes a bold statement yet together do not come off too strong.</p> <p>Bliss... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-influenced-by-angie-ornella-going-minimal#post-479559 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 19:33:42 +0000 rae 479559@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You carry off the bold and simple look very well! That Do Ri sweater is AWESOME. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-influenced-by-angie-ornella-going-minimal#post-479534 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 19:11:05 +0000 Ornella 479534@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh Denise, I am so flattered to influence *you* in any way.</p> <p>I love #1 and 3, but I'm swooning over that shawl from #2 0 I've wanted something similar for a while. I always thought unusual outwear is a tricky thing and can easily get dated, but YLF had given me the confidence to think that the *right* thing for me will never be dated.</p> <p>BTW, the backdrop for #2 is stunning - you always take photos at such picturesque locations. Wild and so captivating. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-influenced-by-angie-ornella-going-minimal#post-479475 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 17:56:55 +0000 Lisa 479475@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great minimal style. Pretty fall colors in #2 on the trees. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-influenced-by-angie-ornella-going-minimal#post-479362 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 16:27:10 +0000 Angie 479362@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think that you have KILLER style no matter what! </p> <p>LOVE these outfits, Denise - especially #1 and #3. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-influenced-by-angie-ornella-going-minimal#post-479323 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 15:08:14 +0000 morethanbeige 479323@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#1 is my favorite and I am totally copying this look. You have such a grace about you cl! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-influenced-by-angie-ornella-going-minimal#post-479288 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 13:34:57 +0000 Janet 479288@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Denise, no need to tear yourself away from pendants and belts -- I think the pendant in #1 is the perfect finishing touch! That simple detail adds a nice vertical element and guides the eye to your face. I'm working on simplifying too, which is hard because I have a LOT of fab accessories, but I don't want them to overwhelm an outfit. I like the way you're accessorizing here. </p> <p>#2 looks so cozy but still chic! I feel like I'd just look like I stumbled out of bed with my blanket on if I tried that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-influenced-by-angie-ornella-going-minimal#post-479283 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 13:28:12 +0000 Anonymous 479283@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are made for this minimalism, it looks great on you! Are you thinking your naughty thoughts? I see a glint in your eye! Lovely fall colors. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-influenced-by-angie-ornella-going-minimal#post-479277 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 13:20:25 +0000 kimlee 479277@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really enjoy seeing your style transform. You look fantastic in more minimal outfits. I am swooning over #1. The cobalt skinnies are fantastic when paired with the navy stripped sweater. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-influenced-by-angie-ornella-going-minimal#post-479276 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 13:02:03 +0000 Midwest Girl 479276@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All of these looks are very chic, but I absolutely love the sweater coat outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-influenced-by-angie-ornella-going-minimal#post-479173 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 05:01:00 +0000 Parsley 479173@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You do minimalism so well, Denise!<br /> The cobalt skinnies are great, and they sure do showcase your slim legs!<br /> I love the stripes, love your cape, love it ALL!<br /> Marcy </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-influenced-by-angie-ornella-going-minimal#post-479117 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 03:49:13 +0000 JennyAnne 479117@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm liking your minimalism. It looks great beacause, although there aren't many pieces, you choose striking ones. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-influenced-by-angie-ornella-going-minimal#post-479069 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 02:56:08 +0000 modgrl 479069@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those cobalt skinnies were made for you. They are so perfect. I love both looks with the shawl and the stripes. Fab!!</p> <p>The sweater coat is amazing. Did you get it after the other Rachel Roy sweater coat? I like how this one is structured and fitted but is still as sweater. You look so long and tall in it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-influenced-by-angie-ornella-going-minimal#post-479066 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 02:52:44 +0000 Suz 479066@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Denise, my eyes are boggling at the gorgeousness of that sweater coat in #3. Ahhhhhh! </p> <p>And cobalt and you are a marriage made in heaven! I love your blues, your stripes, and the strong simplicity of these outfits! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-influenced-by-angie-ornella-going-minimal#post-479065 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 02:51:56 +0000 Michael Kane 479065@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So happy to hear you love your Karen Kane dark wash leggings... totally agree with you that they are our best 'well-known secret.' Loving your new minimal looks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-influenced-by-angie-ornella-going-minimal#post-479017 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 02:10:49 +0000 Debora 479017@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Denise, all three looks are fab! I love the sweater coat in #3 - so cool! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-influenced-by-angie-ornella-going-minimal#post-478997 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 01:55:38 +0000 Transcona Shannon 478997@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Coco - I love the strong and simple (and I mean simple in a very complimentary way) vibe of these outfits. Each piece stands on its own merits without clutter. And you rock that cape! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-influenced-by-angie-ornella-going-minimal#post-478941 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 00:55:25 +0000 Jonesy 478941@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love all of these! I love you in stripes, and the pattern mix in #3 is still very understated and keeping with your new style direction. Love the cape/wrap, and yes, your fall colors are splendid! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-influenced-by-angie-ornella-going-minimal#post-478923 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 00:40:59 +0000 Queen Mum 478923@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#1 is fabulous! perfectly chic but simple. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-influenced-by-angie-ornella-going-minimal#post-478921 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 00:39:21 +0000 Ana 478921@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE outfit #1! I'd wear that in a second. : ) </p>
