And I am trying to do more steps so comfy flat shoes are important. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-items-remixing-and-orphan-rehab-and-the-power-of-a-good-pic#post-1687675 Thu, 30 Jun 2016 14:30:01 +0000 Angie 1687675@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You wear Sporty and Athleisure looks with the best of them, Sally. (Sporty &nbsp;should definitely be one of your style adjectives).&nbsp;</p> <p>You have successfully resurrected the sequin cardi - well done.&nbsp;</p> <p>I LOVE #3. Killer.&nbsp;</p> <p>#4 is super cute too. You wear white sneaks very effortlessly.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-items-remixing-and-orphan-rehab-and-the-power-of-a-good-pic#post-1687565 Thu, 30 Jun 2016 09:54:21 +0000 Sally 1687565@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like those casual looks. If I had to pick a favourite it would be one or 3<br /> ...love those white sneakers with the jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-items-remixing-and-orphan-rehab-and-the-power-of-a-good-pic#post-1687471 Thu, 30 Jun 2016 02:18:27 +0000 RobinF 1687471@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like these. Love the sweater in #3 and the top in #4 and the boots in #2! It all works for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-items-remixing-and-orphan-rehab-and-the-power-of-a-good-pic#post-1687468 Thu, 30 Jun 2016 02:12:10 +0000 Sal 1687468@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mothers usually do know best. &nbsp;I remind my sons that every week LOL.</p> <p>Thanks Smittie </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-items-remixing-and-orphan-rehab-and-the-power-of-a-good-pic#post-1687450 Thu, 30 Jun 2016 01:16:13 +0000 Suz 1687450@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sad but true, our mums were right when they told us to stand up straight!&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-items-remixing-and-orphan-rehab-and-the-power-of-a-good-pic#post-1687441 Thu, 30 Jun 2016 00:49:09 +0000 Anonymous 1687441@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's really interesting about your posture. It Is True That standing up straight really elongates your torso quite noticeably.<br /> I really love the new sneakers!<br /> I think the funky back wrap top is a success.<br /> I love the black pants and boots and how the boots are an extension of the pants. A very sleek look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-items-remixing-and-orphan-rehab-and-the-power-of-a-good-pic#post-1687321 Wed, 29 Jun 2016 20:20:28 +0000 Sal 1687321@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Summer.</p> <p>Thank you Thirkelgirl - coral is probably my "best " colour and I do have several pieces in different shades of it. &nbsp;</p> <p>Ummila - yes the perils of working from home!! &nbsp;If I had a meeting I would have chosen a jacket because I don't think that cardigan is right colourwise or shape wise.....the reality is I was doing some market research at home, and then went to a local cafe to do some reading on Safety Management and Risk Management........</p> <p>Thanks Suz. &nbsp;I am not quite as happy with this haircut as the last, but it has been very humid/rainy so by the end of the day my hair looks a little frizzy. &nbsp;I did read Thirkelgirl's thread and realised I could do with changing up my products a little too to assist with this.</p> <p>Posture- I am very shortwaisted and that sideways photo really shows my figure in a real but unflattering way. &nbsp;I see "before and after" weight loss/gym shots and often posture, lighting play a part in the evolution. &nbsp;I was surprised how I did lose a size or two by standing differently. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-items-remixing-and-orphan-rehab-and-the-power-of-a-good-pic#post-1687254 Wed, 29 Jun 2016 19:07:05 +0000 Suz 1687254@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh! I really like the cardi as a casual piece. It has a sporty luxe vibe with the runners.&nbsp;</p> <p>By the way, I can't get over how lovely your haircut is. It has a kind of natural sporty glamour that works well with this outfit. It's not "done" feeling yet it's a decided style. I think it works for you.&nbsp;</p> <p>Very instructive about the posture, LOL. That jacket looks like a Lulu or Lole-type jacket. It will be useful for you.&nbsp;</p> <p>Love your new sneakers and the pretty red and white top as well.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-items-remixing-and-orphan-rehab-and-the-power-of-a-good-pic#post-1687168 Wed, 29 Jun 2016 16:35:52 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1687168@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like all these except maybe the long office cardigan proportion. However I am frequently doing precisely this sort of thing to work from home when I'm chilly, so I cannot throw even a pebble. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-items-remixing-and-orphan-rehab-and-the-power-of-a-good-pic#post-1687066 Wed, 29 Jun 2016 14:19:37 +0000 Thirkellgirl 1687066@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look wonderful. I really like your style. </p> <p>I'm a little iffy on the white sneaks but you look super so I'm going to decide you're right and I'm wrong. :)</p> <p>The coral (?) color in #4 is so good on you!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-items-remixing-and-orphan-rehab-and-the-power-of-a-good-pic#post-1686979 Wed, 29 Jun 2016 09:42:49 +0000 Sal 1686979@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Brooklyn...yes a necklace would have been good with the blouse. </p> <p>And I love many of the clothes in Game of Thrones - the armour Cersei wore this week was spectacular. A great finale!!</p> <p>Thanks Coco- yes I was staggered the difference the posture made. i only really added that photo for educational purposes.</p> <p> I like to have a few things on mid winter as it is very dreary around here otherwise. So I hosted a mid winter drinks party, with about 12 women friends. We drank wine, ate rice paper rolls, Devils on horseback and smoked salmon blini and had lots of laughter. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-items-remixing-and-orphan-rehab-and-the-power-of-a-good-pic#post-1686975 Wed, 29 Jun 2016 09:40:57 +0000 Summer 1686975@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All lovely looks, Sally, and good posture works magic, doesn't it?&nbsp; Love 1, 3 and 4 especially.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-items-remixing-and-orphan-rehab-and-the-power-of-a-good-pic#post-1686967 Wed, 29 Jun 2016 09:10:06 +0000 Cococat 1686967@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the sequin cardi worn in a casual way like that. I think it's a hit. <br />The Witchery jacket is very cool and yes, doesn't different posture make you loose a size! I should take note, I'm a terrible sloucher.<br />#3 and 4 are fab. I really like your white sneaks.</p> <p>So...a party on Friday...when the cat's away.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-items-remixing-and-orphan-rehab-and-the-power-of-a-good-pic#post-1686955 Wed, 29 Jun 2016 07:11:17 +0000 Brooklyn 1686955@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sally, jacket twin! You kept it, yay! I have worn mine heaps (including today). I find because it is fitted and looks so good closed (because of the funnel neck) that it layers well under another jacket or coat. I have worn mine under my Ombre jacket. Anyhow, it looks good on you (you are right about the posture). But unfortunately this means we can never go to the same rugby match :)<br /> I like the cardi in no 1. It is a little hard to see the detail in the photo. I think including it in a sporty outfit is fun and unexpected.<br /> No 3 is perfect.<br /> No 4 looks good too. Proportions look good to me. I would add a long necklace, but that's what I always do! I like the split at the back. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-items-remixing-and-orphan-rehab-and-the-power-of-a-good-pic#post-1686939 Wed, 29 Jun 2016 05:07:53 +0000 Sal 1686939@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Rachylou.</p> <p>Thanks delurked. &nbsp;I like my hair in those first pics, it is pretty wooly in pic 2!! &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-items-remixing-and-orphan-rehab-and-the-power-of-a-good-pic#post-1686936 Wed, 29 Jun 2016 05:00:20 +0000 Anonymous 1686936@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>One is my very favorite.

Life has mostly been about working, exercising and snuggling up at home - and watching lots of soccer and rugby and tennis, some in the rain, some on the TV and some outside in the sun.</p> <p>Here are some things I have worn.</p> <p>1) In a previous thread there were suggestions to wear my black sequin cardigan casually - so here we go. &nbsp;Attempt one - I have a few other ideas up my sleeve for when the weather gets a little more condusive. &nbsp;I think this is a fair but not great look.</p> <p>2) &nbsp;In the early evening I went for a slow ploddy run then came home and could not be bothered cooking. &nbsp;I picked up some burgers for the boys and a healthier option for me. &nbsp;I wore my new Witchery Ponte jacket - recommended by Brooklyn. &nbsp;It is relatively fitting, while I usually take this size at Witchery, it does feel a little snug. &nbsp;But the size up was sold out and I think two sizes bigger would be too big. &nbsp;I have worn it previously with my loose Lululemon pants which I think is better than the skinny jeans. It is a well constructed jacket and it looks best done up, which suits me. &nbsp;Perfect for working from home or the rugby sideline. I will wear it a lot but probably not with these jeans BUT why I am showing it the power of good posture in a photo. &nbsp;I look a lot different when I stand up straight huh!!&nbsp;</p> <p>3) Yesterday's day look. &nbsp;New white sneakers with a gold trim at the back from Witchery. &nbsp;Very comfy although quite stiff to put on and off. &nbsp;Everything else has been seen before. &nbsp;</p> <p>4) &nbsp;Today, another working from home day. &nbsp;A bit of an experimental look. &nbsp;I liked the fresh colour. &nbsp;I had to throw on the long cardigan for warmth. &nbsp;I am not sure about the proportions but I decided not to worry.</p> <p>&nbsp;I did have a wee party here on Friday night but ran out of time to take an outfit pic as I was rushing around preparing canapes and tidying up and I have some very punctual friends!! I wore a navy and cream patterned long skirt, a silky navy top, lots of sparkly jewelry and sandal boots.</p> <p>Thanks for looking .</p> </p>
