Chronic pain + lockdown + winter = perfect storm. My husband suffered from chronic nerve pain for many years, and he mentioned early on in lockdown how grateful he was he had not been confined to home during that period. So kudos to you for seeking help, and for “keeping on keeping on” in difficult circumstances!<br /> It’s wonderful to see you looking so well! You positively glow in the soft colors of that first outfit! The second is quite nice, too - I especially like the brown boots with the black and blue. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-late-march-%e2%80%9ccomfort-food%e2%80%9d-outfits/page/2#post-2184554 Mon, 05 Apr 2021 13:23:07 +0000 Chris987 2184554@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks <b>Style Fan! </b>Feel free to "steal" :-)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-late-march-%e2%80%9ccomfort-food%e2%80%9d-outfits/page/2#post-2184415 Sun, 04 Apr 2021 21:19:01 +0000 Style Fan 2184415@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Chris, I am sorry to hear how rough this past winter has been.&nbsp; Chronic pain and illness take a toll on a person.

So pretty and fresh. This winter did feel really long, and it's frustrating to be heading back into spring with so many restrictions still in place. Yay for vaccines and sunnier days, and for clothes that provide soothing simplicity.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-late-march-%e2%80%9ccomfort-food%e2%80%9d-outfits/page/2#post-2184173 Sat, 03 Apr 2021 14:23:38 +0000 Chris987 2184173@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks <b>MsMaven, JamC, </b>and<b> Bijou!</b></p> <p><b>Bijou</b> I bought this blue moto jacket almost 3 years ago - not sure this color has "returned to retail' since then.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Diana</b> - yep this time of year is still very cool in our neck of the woods, but things are definitely blooming!</p> <p><b>kkards</b> those refs to mac&amp;cheese are FUNNY!

And yay for the vaccines.&nbsp;<br />Glad that you posted, i love a good comfort food outfit -and these are excellent, i can see why/how these are high on comfort.

Those cool pastels are stunning on you. ❤️ I love outfit #2 as well! The denim jacket with that scarf is great and I really like the boots.<br /> I’m sorry you’ve had such a rough winter! Here’s hoping that spring brings better things. Despite the fact that it’s currently 30F here again, I was heartened this week to see that things have started blooming in earnest. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-late-march-%e2%80%9ccomfort-food%e2%80%9d-outfits/page/2#post-2184152 Sat, 03 Apr 2021 11:51:33 +0000 Bijou 2184152@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Chris sorry to hear that the last 6 months have been so tough.

You were missed!<br /> Your “comfort food” outfits are wonderful. It is so nice to have fast fall back items in the closet, isn’t it? I haven’t had anywhere to go for over a year but continue to wear my clothes, but in simpler combinations. Wishing you continued healing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-late-march-%e2%80%9ccomfort-food%e2%80%9d-outfits/page/2#post-2184120 Sat, 03 Apr 2021 03:03:37 +0000 MsMaven 2184120@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great to see you and to learn that life is going better for you.</p> <p>I love that light blue jacket--just gorgeous on you.

When the physical and the mental/emotional sides both go into crisis mode, it's very, very hard to see any light and potential for peace. I'm glad to read that you are feeling better, and your outfits look lovely! The light blue is beautiful on you, and I love the scarf and camel booties paired with the denim jacket! Here's to a better, happier 2021! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-late-march-%e2%80%9ccomfort-food%e2%80%9d-outfits#post-2184016 Fri, 02 Apr 2021 17:41:40 +0000 lyn67 2184016@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, 2x brilliant outfits and YOU LOOK SO FAB in them, both! How great to have some of these well tried and hard working FFBO when we don't have the energy to try something new.&nbsp; It really shows and well worth all the effort (in the past) when you put together these-they are really&nbsp; perfect for this time of the year.&nbsp; Think the low contrast outfits,&nbsp; no matter if it's light or dark, have a great calming and easy chic effect! Trully love them both! Sorry for your hard winter and hope you are on the good way now for escaping out of the blues-pls hang on here&amp; my best wishes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-late-march-%e2%80%9ccomfort-food%e2%80%9d-outfits#post-2183977 Fri, 02 Apr 2021 15:37:41 +0000 smittie 2183977@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These classic outfits really work well for you, Chris.

Those who've never experienced chronic&nbsp;pain don't realize how exhausting&nbsp;and emotionally draining it is, plus it just plain hurts.&nbsp;And as <b>Brooklyn</b> says, it's isolating, because you don't have&nbsp;the energy to interact with others and if you do all you&nbsp; can think about is trying not to complain. I don't wish it on anyone. </p> <p><b>Sloper</b> - sending some good vibes your way. </p> <p><b>Suz</b> - I guess I could say waving at my "family-with-depression" twin but somehow that doesn't seem serious enough :-)&nbsp;My dad had it BAD and due to generational/gender norms was never willing or able to deal with it. Thanks goodness societal norms are now changing.&nbsp;<br />&nbsp;</p> <p>And to end on a cheery fashion note - I'm ALWAYS looking for additional items in this type of light blue. It's not a color that's been in high supply the last few years but I always keep an eye out!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-late-march-%e2%80%9ccomfort-food%e2%80%9d-outfits#post-2183934 Fri, 02 Apr 2021 12:58:38 +0000 Helena 2183934@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Absolutely beautiful in both, and hooray for clothing as much-needed self care and support, rather than a totally unnecessary extra layer of stress.</p> <p>So glad to hear you are coming through the tunnel ... Be exceedingly gentle with yourself and wonderful that you have the knowledge and wisdom to get the support you need.

I'm so sorry you had such a rough winter. What an awful time it has been. Thank you for sharing with us.&nbsp;</p> <p>I empathize. I know depression well. It's in my family of origin, I suffer from it periodically, (fortunately, the intervals are widely spaced), and two of my current family members also struggle mightily at times. Chronic pain is also horrible. I dealt with an injury that prevented me from walking this winter. You can imagine how well that went. ;)&nbsp;</p> <p>I love both these outfits on you. You've perfected the moto/ denim jacket look with elevating elements. You look terrific!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-late-march-%e2%80%9ccomfort-food%e2%80%9d-outfits#post-2183884 Fri, 02 Apr 2021 00:59:34 +0000 Sally 2183884@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those jackets are great and both outfits look beautifully put together but also casual.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-late-march-%e2%80%9ccomfort-food%e2%80%9d-outfits#post-2183879 Fri, 02 Apr 2021 00:17:18 +0000 Sloper 2183879@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both outfits are swell!
