I have many days like that and it IS an effort to get past that feeling and dress like I planned. (Although some days are definitely bloatier than others and can certainly make an outfit uncomfortable.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-muubaa-motobad-hormone-day#post-1171601 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 17:12:20 +0000 CocoLion 1171601@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you look great! &nbsp;And kudos to you for wearing colors.</p> <p>I think your displeasure with this outfit is&nbsp;in your head… or hormones. &nbsp;Which I totally get. &nbsp;My OB-GYN put me on an estrogen cream and it has that most hated of all side effects: &nbsp;weight gain. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-muubaa-motobad-hormone-day#post-1171590 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 17:06:15 +0000 Anonymous 1171590@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, bad day or not, I think your outfit turned out fine and dandy! That is a very unusual finish on your jacket. It makes for interesting tones throughout. And talking of tones, I really like your colour palette of warm rusts and grey. Also no stumpifying effect to my eye, YLF. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-muubaa-motobad-hormone-day#post-1171506 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 16:07:39 +0000 Suz 1171506@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fabulously put together.

I don't think your legs look stumpy, I think the colour, texture and patterns along with the proportions look intentional and fun. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-muubaa-motobad-hormone-day#post-1171431 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 14:48:19 +0000 Neel 1171431@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you look gorgeous for a bad day :). Cool moto and it bookends your boots very well. Nice scarf too. Great outfit overall!</p> <p>P.S - Did you see your challenge just yet? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-muubaa-motobad-hormone-day#post-1171417 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 14:37:17 +0000 leopardluxe 1171417@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry if this is TMI or over-sharing, but I'm guessing at least a few of you may have these kinds of days as well. I've always had badly fluctuating hormones that wreak havoc on me&nbsp;(both mentally and physically)&nbsp;-- and as I go through menopause they aren't letting up any.</p> <p>Yesterday was one of *those* days.</p> <p>While the logical and objective-thinking portion of my brain recognizes that the same outfit&nbsp;I tried on the night before and felt like I&nbsp;looked pretty good in does not look any different the next morning it sure as heck feels like it does.</p> <p>These are the days where I usually just throw in the towel and search for something that I call a "muumuu outfit" -- basic oversized&nbsp;tunic and leggings with flat boots.</p> <p>I refused to let myself do that yesterday. Instead I forced myself to wear a "workhorse uniform" of a moto jacket and jeans.&nbsp;</p> <p>I don't really care for how it turned out. Mostly because the slouch boots, although an awesome color that I adore (they're sort of a salmon/orange/red distressed suede), causes a bit of that "leg stumping" effect because I wore them with the gray jeans, which also visually cut short my already short legs. I wore them cuffed so it wasn't as bad, but still. Not crazy about it.</p> <p>&nbsp;I tried them with a pair of colored distressed jeans that were close to the same color as the boots themselves, but just didn't care for that much distressed orange/red from head to toe (and switching to a gray jacket didn't help either because it felt too long and slouchy).&nbsp;&nbsp;I finally just reached a point where I couldn't bring myself to care that it wasn't terribly complimentary!</p> <p>So I'm chalking this one up as a victory simply because I actually walked out of the apartment wearing it instead of switching to something I felt like I could hide in.</p> <p><b>Moto Jacket:</b> Muubaa &nbsp;-via ebay&nbsp;(Diane G, this is the one I mention in your Muubaa thread that has the streaky/painterly leather finish).<br /><b>Scarf:</b> Thrifted (I just loved the colors in it and the pattern)<br /><b>Hat:</b> Goorin Bros.
