You look cute &amp; tough at the same time which is a great thing imo :)</p> <p>With #1&nbsp;I try to think of those sort of days as learning days - it's a positive to know what I don't feel good in &amp; taking the darn things off feels so good&nbsp;&nbsp;:)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-monday-and-tuesday-1#post-943702 Wed, 29 May 2013 01:37:12 +0000 Angie 943702@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love #2! Lots of playful sass and verve in the layers, lengths and textures </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-monday-and-tuesday-1#post-943389 Tue, 28 May 2013 19:11:13 +0000 Hil 943389@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the feedback! It's amazing how one can instinctively know that something is just off with an outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-monday-and-tuesday-1#post-943212 Tue, 28 May 2013 13:02:51 +0000 Transcona Shannon 943212@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agree with everyone else here - #2 is a home run Hil. The proportions are great and I do think the boots work well here. That tunic is just lovely on you.</p> <p>Gosh, I can't even count the number of times I've left the house not happy with what I was wearing and could hardly wait for the day to end. I think both Deborah and Ceit are right with the it being an issue with definition and proportion. Don't worry about it and just move on </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-monday-and-tuesday-1#post-943202 Tue, 28 May 2013 12:50:35 +0000 Suz 943202@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#2 is great, and you should be very proud to hear me say that, because I have a ridiculous poison eye for what I consider "seasonally confused" looks. This does not seem at all seasonally confused; it is very coherent.&nbsp;</p> <p>As for #1, we all have days like that. I have found that planning in advance really helps, but if the weather doesn't cooperate, that sometimes still throws me off my game. Love the oxfords, and love your hair, too!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-monday-and-tuesday-1#post-943142 Tue, 28 May 2013 10:44:00 +0000 Anonymous 943142@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love 2!</p> <p>I think your proportions are off in 1, I think that is what you were feeling! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-monday-and-tuesday-1#post-943107 Tue, 28 May 2013 08:40:56 +0000 Hil 943107@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Deborah... I actually tried it with a pencil skirt first, but it just looked all wrong. It has been pointed out here that the denim&nbsp;jacket is probably too long so maybe that was part of the problem. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-monday-and-tuesday-1#post-943104 Tue, 28 May 2013 08:35:52 +0000 Deborah 943104@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love #2! I think the mix here is perfect. I love the feminine vibe of the tunic and the hard edge of the boots. #1 is maybe not as bad as you felt but maybe not your best. I feel it just lacks definition. Love those oxfords though.<br /> Do you have a black pencil skirt? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-monday-and-tuesday-1#post-943102 Tue, 28 May 2013 08:30:54 +0000 Hil 943102@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Photo 1: I felt decidedly uninspired yesterday about getting dressed. All I knew was I wanted to wear my oxford shoes. I tried on a thousand different things and nothing felt like it worked.&nbsp;I ran out of time and as a result - well I didn't love what I wore. Couldn't wait to get home to change! </p> <p>Photo 2: Todays outfit... felt happier about this. The weather is truly stunning for autumn so I am wearing this summer tunic with a really lightweight cardi. I was going to wear ballet flats, but I didn't feel like cold feet so I opted for my biker boots instead. Does this mix up of seasons and styles work? I felt like it did. </p> <p>Love to hear your comments, as always! x </p>
