I especially like the necklace in #1 and the skirt and shoes combo in #2. Your surgery outfit is inspiring - it looks perfect for both going to school and surgery. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-last-week---layers#post-731323 Wed, 26 Sep 2012 12:41:53 +0000 LizL 731323@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love all the outfits, esp the long skirt.

I did wear a hoodie and yoga pants:). </p> <p>The Amber Sun jacket is just beautiful. The color and cut is lovely on you. And I thank you for #2/3 for more striped skirt inspiration:)</p> <p>The top in 4 is just so gorgeous! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-last-week---layers#post-731038 Wed, 26 Sep 2012 00:46:55 +0000 KathyL 731038@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the necklace in the first outfit! Your surgery outfit is great! I can't believe you look that good going into surgery. Hope you're feeling much better. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-last-week---layers#post-731025 Wed, 26 Sep 2012 00:28:46 +0000 Suz 731025@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow. WOW!! Christy, you look sensational. I adore all of these, but I am taking special notes on 1 and 2/3. I have this goal too (and so far, I am failing badly!) of making my outfits look as good without a jacket as with one. I need to shop for more interesting tops. </p> <p>LOVE that Bobeau skirt with the peeptoe booties. And your surgery outfit is pure brilliance. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-last-week---layers#post-731021 Wed, 26 Sep 2012 00:20:32 +0000 christy 731021@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone! </p> <p>I know Angie!! That darn denim jacket really needs to get moved up the list, doesn't it? I keep finding outfits that would benefit from one, so it's time to get moving! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-last-week---layers#post-730464 Tue, 25 Sep 2012 16:20:43 +0000 Carole 730464@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, stunning not to mention your "surgery" outfit. I love your style and hope you are feeling better soon so we can see more fab outfits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-last-week---layers#post-730463 Tue, 25 Sep 2012 16:19:03 +0000 sinead 730463@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What great business casual outfits- this was always the hardest for me to figure out, and you make it look so easy. And that Tahari jacket is so fab on you... I can see why you're in love. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-last-week---layers#post-730461 Tue, 25 Sep 2012 16:18:11 +0000 catgirl 730461@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look incredible! #2 is so brilliant - love the peeptoes with the long skirt. I am glad you're better after your surgery. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-last-week---layers#post-730454 Tue, 25 Sep 2012 16:15:42 +0000 Transcona Shannon 730454@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well you are certainly the most stylish day surgery patient I've ever seen - and I work in a hospital with a day surgery program!</p> <p>Your outfits in pics #1 - #3 are beyond fabulous. You look amazing in shades of blue Christy and I adore the silhouettes in these two oufits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-last-week---layers#post-730433 Tue, 25 Sep 2012 16:01:42 +0000 Angie 730433@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER outfits! (Get that shaped denim jacket asap :)). </p> <p>You look far too good for someone who has just had surgery. Wow! Absolutely LOVE #2 and #3.</p> <p>Feel fighting fit soon and take care. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-last-week---layers#post-730386 Tue, 25 Sep 2012 15:26:44 +0000 christy 730386@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Monday: Amber Sun teal jacket (NAS), cream knit top, BR cuffed pants, Halogen taupe sandals, Stella &amp; Dot necklace, MK gold watch, B Makowsky handbag<br /> Tuesday: Gibson black riding jacket, Target blue high-low hem top, Bobeau striped skirt, Steve Madden reptile print bag and black peep-toe booties.<br /> Wednesday: Elie Tahari black jacket (NAS and I'm IN LOVE!), Elie Tahari lace-trimmed sleeveless top, Lafayette black straight-leg pants (NAS), new BR brown reptile print ankle-strap heels (can't see the details, but I love these also)<br /> Thursday - surgery day. Black denim jacket, oversized white button up blouse, long and loose black cami underneath, black leggings which I discovered in the Junior's department at (gasp!) Fred Meyer's for those in the area and are quite possibly the most comfortable leggings I've ever purchased. They cost all of $15 and I will probably duplicate for lounge-wear. Animal print slipper flats from Target. I've already got the CPW (cost per wear) down to about $2 and I bought them last month! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-last-week---layers#post-730385 Tue, 25 Sep 2012 15:26:03 +0000 christy 730385@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My "fashion-oriented" week was truncated by surgery on Thursday (had a pesky gallbladder removed), but here's what I wore Monday-Wednesday and my fashion challenge on Thursday.</p> <p>The weather has been fabulous around here lately. Cool mornings but fairly warm afternoons. I've been wearing layers that can be removed as the day gets warmer, though, since I'm always cold I rarely end up removing them! However, my goal Tuesday and Wednesday was to create outfits where I could remove my topper and still feel comfortable.</p> <p>Monday - Wednesday: pics 1-5, worn to work<br /> Thursday: pics 6 &amp; 7, worn to surgery. Now, I know this is a day where I had every reason to be dressed in yoga pants and a hoodie (yes, both of these items still exist in my lounge-wear capsule!) BUT....we were dropping my son off at school on the way to the hospital and my mom was with us and wanted to see his school. Which meant I'd actually have to get out of the car and be seen. My challenge was to find something entirely appropriate for going to and returning from surgery (same-day) - so loose-fitting, easy to get in and out of and COMFORT above all else. But I also wanted to be in something that I wouldn't be embarrassed to be seen in. I think this turned out okay, considering the circumstances. No head due to lack of make-up (by requirement - what?!). </p> <p>Outfit details to follow. </p>
