I really like that skirt! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-my-partial-week-of-scarves-coiled-cobra-plus-new-skirt#post-471995 Mon, 21 Nov 2011 14:59:33 +0000 citygirldc 471995@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sometimes I can't remember if I've posted or not. Anyway, you look gorgeous as always. Love the scarves and the gray skirt on your great figure. And as always, love that short hairdo (I'm a bit bias of course ;). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-my-partial-week-of-scarves-coiled-cobra-plus-new-skirt#post-471902 Mon, 21 Nov 2011 07:04:23 +0000 Astrid 471902@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love that skirt on you! I looks absolutely perfect. The new jeans are also great and I like what you did with the scarves. The first one adds the perfect finishing touch to the outfit. The raspberry color of the second top looks stunning on you, especially paired with the grey. That's one of my favourite color combinations! And I LOVE the earrings! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-my-partial-week-of-scarves-coiled-cobra-plus-new-skirt#post-470858 Sat, 19 Nov 2011 18:28:35 +0000 Suz 470858@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lyn, the saddle chair is the Hag Capisco <a href="http://www.ergodepot.com/HAG_Capisco_p/8106.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.ergodepot.com/HAG_Capisco_p/8106.htm</a></p> <p>which I credit with saving my back...it is a genius chair. But it doesn't like slim cut skirts! You sit on it rather like a saddle. Actually, you sit MANY ways, but that is one way. </p> <p>As for people eating out of my hand, I don't know yet, but I DO enjoy wearing that top and it seems to work really well with grey. Sort of a classic 80s combo, in my mind...</p> <p>Una, thanks for the hair compliments; I am having a bad hair day today so I needed them! Bad hair days are rare now but she cut it a bit shorter and the proportions are a tiny bit off so (I think) so I'm struggling a bit with it. A temporary struggle, I'm sure. </p> <p>Deborah, my husband will be thrilled. When he saw my daughter taking the closeup he said, "I HOPE your online friends like the earrings! They'd better!!" </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-my-partial-week-of-scarves-coiled-cobra-plus-new-skirt#post-470620 Sat, 19 Nov 2011 07:20:33 +0000 lyn67 470620@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love nr 1 with subtle grey and prints, scarf and all! The new skirt looks very comfy, and makes big impact pairred with that pink(magenta?)-which I love and kept looking for for ages! I have lots of greys in my wardrobe and wanted the same colour combo, as I heard when wearring pink(magenta), people will eat out of your hands..:-)) Haha!<br /> Is it true?<br /> Please excuse, but what is a saddle chair? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-my-partial-week-of-scarves-coiled-cobra-plus-new-skirt#post-470611 Sat, 19 Nov 2011 06:51:46 +0000 Deborah 470611@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz #1 is just beautiful, those colors are so flattering on you. #2 is gorgeous. The skirt is lovely. Its looks stylish AND comfortable. I really like the silhouette of #2. And are those the earrings you mentioned on one of my posts? They are stunning. Your hubby has good taste. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-my-partial-week-of-scarves-coiled-cobra-plus-new-skirt#post-470590 Sat, 19 Nov 2011 06:15:58 +0000 catgirl 470590@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, the L &amp; Ls look fantastic on you. Mine are not always PPL either, but I really hate dragging hems in slush. I hope with all my might that you wore these looks out and about because they deserve to be seen and inspire others IRL. And your hair is still just blowing me away every time I see it. Even if I hadn't seen the before photos, I would still be admiring how perfectly it suits you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-my-partial-week-of-scarves-coiled-cobra-plus-new-skirt#post-470562 Sat, 19 Nov 2011 05:18:44 +0000 lpr200 470562@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really love how great you look in these colrs, as well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-my-partial-week-of-scarves-coiled-cobra-plus-new-skirt#post-470542 Sat, 19 Nov 2011 04:57:46 +0000 Sara L. 470542@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great scarf looks! I like the printed sweater in #1and that's a great skirt in #2. I'm on Team Wear too. I can't wait to wear anything new. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-my-partial-week-of-scarves-coiled-cobra-plus-new-skirt#post-470520 Sat, 19 Nov 2011 04:20:16 +0000 Suz 470520@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They are certainly not the skinnies I'm still after, Sveta, but I wanted a bootcut pair, too, and these fit the bill. </p> <p>I did get the skirt at the Toronto Anthro store, yes. Day before our meet up. As I mentioned on another thread I have never really warmed to their stores and find them confusing, and this piece isn't really typical of what they sell, but what the heck. The price was right and it worked, so I went for it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-my-partial-week-of-scarves-coiled-cobra-plus-new-skirt#post-470508 Sat, 19 Nov 2011 03:59:58 +0000 Sveta 470508@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love that skirt, Suz! Did you get it in Toronto? I have never been to Anthropologie store, maybe I should check it out some time...<br /> I am glad you found jeans that fit you. They did not work for me, too tight in the thighs &lt;sigh&gt;. Good for you to size down on them!<br /> You wear scarves like nobody's business, Eurochic lady! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-my-partial-week-of-scarves-coiled-cobra-plus-new-skirt#post-470430 Sat, 19 Nov 2011 01:15:43 +0000 lyn* 470430@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mmm; that skirt looks so lovely on you ... I love the waist detail! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-my-partial-week-of-scarves-coiled-cobra-plus-new-skirt#post-470364 Sat, 19 Nov 2011 00:17:10 +0000 Aida 470364@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>*nodnod* That's perfect then! I have my flared hems so long they do sweep the ground, and can definitely only wear on very non-wet days </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-my-partial-week-of-scarves-coiled-cobra-plus-new-skirt#post-470330 Sat, 19 Nov 2011 00:00:11 +0000 Suz 470330@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Freckles, the earrings are silver with a pearl. </p> <p>Aida, re the hems: I won't wear them outside on wet days. Funny that you mention the length; I was worried that they weren't QUITE PPL. (I had them hemmed and had to argue a bit with the seamstress to keep them longer than she wanted.) They don't actually touch the ground, but I know they would soak up water from sidewalks and puddles anyway. Fortunately, our winters do include quite a number of cold clear dry days, so I will still get wear from them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-my-partial-week-of-scarves-coiled-cobra-plus-new-skirt#post-470316 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 23:51:14 +0000 Freckles 470316@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous looks Suz. I'm particularly enjoying your scarves as that is my current mission. Gorgeous earrings, are they gold and pearl? I don't trust my monitor. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-my-partial-week-of-scarves-coiled-cobra-plus-new-skirt#post-470312 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 23:48:14 +0000 Aida 470312@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both great looks Suz! What will you do about those long hems in #1 when it's wet/snowy? For me "winter" is pretty much always, always wet but perhaps you get normal non-wet cold days hehe. LOVE the hair! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-my-partial-week-of-scarves-coiled-cobra-plus-new-skirt#post-470305 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 23:44:45 +0000 rae 470305@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love that skirt! And I must say women never get enough credit for being able to find the right size in size-changing pants - the things we have to deal with! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-my-partial-week-of-scarves-coiled-cobra-plus-new-skirt#post-470244 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 22:35:49 +0000 nancylee 470244@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely looks, Suz. You are really developing a "Suz" style. Nice booties, btw </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-my-partial-week-of-scarves-coiled-cobra-plus-new-skirt#post-470192 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 21:41:30 +0000 Ornella 470192@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Scarves are your thing, definitely.</p> <p>I love the jeans but that skirt - WOW! It says Suz all over it! Perfect in every way. The color of the top in the second outfit is fabulous on you.</p> <p>Your WIWs are getting better and better. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-my-partial-week-of-scarves-coiled-cobra-plus-new-skirt#post-470172 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 21:24:51 +0000 Suz 470172@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know, Laura, it was so ironic; this is the first and only time I've ever bought from them, and there was your thread! Too funny! </p> <p>Thanks for the compliments, ladies. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-my-partial-week-of-scarves-coiled-cobra-plus-new-skirt#post-470169 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 21:23:05 +0000 amyreh 470169@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The jeans look great on you and I love the skirt as well - that's awesome you are getting so much use out of it already! Good job with the scarves too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-my-partial-week-of-scarves-coiled-cobra-plus-new-skirt#post-470167 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 21:22:16 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 470167@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is a super-cool skirt, Suz. It works perfectly with your figure and your style. I'll even forgive you that it's Anthropologie (j/k!). There's something tres elegant about short hair with a scarf around the neck. </p> <p>I've been wearing a lot of scarves myself - probably because it's gotten cold here (relatively)! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-my-partial-week-of-scarves-coiled-cobra-plus-new-skirt#post-470159 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 21:18:47 +0000 Suz 470159@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I won't bore you with my first three scarf outfits which were variations on outfits worn last week, because I was working with a travel capsule. </p> <p>Outfit #1 here debuts my Gap Long and Leans. REALLY glad I sized way down on these; they got very loose as I wore them. I like them that way; they are super comfortable jeans! I will wear them all winter. Silver Gap tank, ON cropped abstract floral sweater, two-shades-of-grey pashima. </p> <p>Outfit #2: My new skirt from Anthropologie. I am on team wear. I bought it a week ago and have now worn it 4 times. This is a pencil skirt I can enjoy! </p> <p>Remember Astrid's plaid jumper dress? This skirt shares some characteristics with it: the high waist crossover buckle detail and the pockets. It is SUPER comfortable and can even be worn on my saddle chair. It's knit, so it may not last more than one season (especially if I continue to wear it as often) but I know I will enjoy it while it lasts. </p> <p>Worn with a knit top and cobra print scarf, and new earrings that my husband brought from Israel. </p> <p>The scarf challenge was really easy for me. I have been reaching for scarves every day. The true challenge for me would be trying to tie them in more interesting ways. I did at least aim for two different ties on these days. And my goal will be to learn more as the season progresses. They are clearly going to be a staple of my new Eurochic look! </p> <p>Thanks for looking! </p>
