You are going from strength to strength and it is a wonderful process to watch. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-not-so-sunny-sunday#post-688764 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 09:34:30 +0000 Deborah 688764@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lauren thank you for thinking of me. I love VM and I do like this blazer. This one I am definitely stalking:). Next trip to Melbourne I will go to Chadstone and try it on and until then I think I might have to start saving he he. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-not-so-sunny-sunday#post-688762 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 09:29:10 +0000 Laurenlaurielala 688762@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yup, I'm in Brisbane.</p> <p>I saw another black and white photo floral print jacket at Veronika Maine and thought of you. You can see a pic in their campaign photos. There are matching pants!</p> <p><a href="http://veronikamaine.com.au/summer-2012/#" rel="nofollow">http://veronikamaine.com.au/summer-2012/#</a></p> <p>It's not any cheaper than the Cue one though!! At least it's another one to stalk and hope it doesn't sell?!?!</p> <p>There is 15% off on Veronika Maine tomorrow on full priced items. I don't find that to be a huge incentive, but every little bit helps if it's something you just have to have! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-not-so-sunny-sunday#post-686101 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 15:00:08 +0000 Lisa 686101@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ack! Sorry to hear about the jacket, it was fab. I'd keep an eye out for a similar style to continue to sport this look, it's lovely on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-not-so-sunny-sunday#post-686035 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 13:21:36 +0000 Deborah 686035@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lauren thank you so much. I will watch the Cue site and hope the jacket doesn't sell lol. You're a fellow Aussie? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-not-so-sunny-sunday#post-686029 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 12:53:00 +0000 Laurenlaurielala 686029@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cue often does 50 - 70% off markdowns if stock lasts more than 3 months...you never know! I'll still keep an eye out for other options, though. That jacket looks so lovely on you. I hope you find a replacement. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-not-so-sunny-sunday#post-685998 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 09:49:38 +0000 Lyn D. 685998@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A shame about the jacket Deborah! I will look out for you when I am next shopping.. So far I have seen some floral blazers, but nothing similar to your lovely one.<br /> No spring weather yet- forecast of very cold weather and some snow this Thursday! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-not-so-sunny-sunday#post-685997 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 09:42:03 +0000 Deborah 685997@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lauren this is gorgeous! Thank you:). I don't know if my budget will stretch to this at the moment, but I may stalk it and see if it gets marked down:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-not-so-sunny-sunday#post-685996 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 09:28:59 +0000 Laurenlaurielala 685996@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oops. Duplicate posting. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-not-so-sunny-sunday#post-685995 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 09:28:14 +0000 Laurenlaurielala 685995@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cue has a black and white paisley blazer. It looks similar in the product photograph to your blazer. I am pretty sure there will be more black and white patterned blazers around soon. It seems to be an item that is trending. On you, of course, it's a classic!</p> <p><a href="http://www.cue.cc/shop/Product/C4841_S12" rel="nofollow">http://www.cue.cc/shop/Product/C4841_S12</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-not-so-sunny-sunday#post-685782 Sun, 05 Aug 2012 23:40:48 +0000 Deborah 685782@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you for your kind words about the outfit and your sympathy re the sudden end of the jacket! I could see that Jacket being worn alot through Spring and not so hot Summer but... </p> <p>Angie, thank you! And my pleasure, I have a very strong sense of social justice and fairness and I couldn't not respond :)</p> <p>Christy, lol, nothing stalkerish about it. We did start participating here about the same time and I really relate to your style, so I too have really enjoyed following your outfits and journey here. Correct me if I am wrong but I think we may have shared a similar challenge in terms of casual wear. Until YLF I always struggled with putting together casual non-work outfits. I love corporate and work wear and had heaps of it but didn't really wear jeans and had no idea how to translate the look I like into casual wear. And then going from full time to part time work meant my need for smart casual became more important. Not to mention our shared love of neutrals!!<br /> And for the record, the skirt I wore in my first WIW was never really 'me'. It now lives in my mother's closet and she loves it.</p> <p>And if anyone sees a similar jacket please let me know I love Angie's Zara jacket, however I felt the abstract pattern was more me than a floral. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-not-so-sunny-sunday#post-685740 Sun, 05 Aug 2012 21:05:23 +0000 rute 685740@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love!! Só chic! Love the blue and the green </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-not-so-sunny-sunday#post-685736 Sun, 05 Aug 2012 20:54:11 +0000 Anonymous 685736@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great color combo! Oh how I love that green and blue together...and that bag is TDF!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-not-so-sunny-sunday#post-685558 Sun, 05 Aug 2012 15:59:57 +0000 Parsley 685558@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Deborah, I'm so sad to hear about your jacket. I loved it on you! I hope you'll keep a look out for a similar replacement.</p> <p>Anyway, while it lasted your outfit today was fab as can be. I love that green bag, too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-not-so-sunny-sunday#post-685549 Sun, 05 Aug 2012 15:51:27 +0000 christy 685549@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, so disappointing about the jacket! But what a FAB outfit while it lasted!</p> <p>This stood out to me most:<br /> "I have to confess to not giving it much thought (I slept in:)."<br /> What a terrific place to be! It seems to me the effort you've put into defining your style and creating your wardrobe has paid off in spades. You are able to "throw together" an outfit that is chic, stylish, perfectly appropriate for the circumstances and undeniably *you* and make it appear effortless. For some reason, I flashed back to your very first WIW post. You were beautifully stylish then, but your style has evolved so much since then. How fun to watch that evolution! I think you and I really started participating fully in the forum at about the same time, so I've watched your journey with interest. (in the words of Vix on one of my threads the other day, I hope that doesn't sound "stalker-ish"! LOL!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-not-so-sunny-sunday#post-685528 Sun, 05 Aug 2012 15:05:29 +0000 Angie 685528@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh no! :(</p> <p>Well. The outfit was a KILLER combination while the jacket was still behaving. </p> <p>Debs, thank you for your facebook comment last week. You rock. xoxo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-not-so-sunny-sunday#post-685403 Sun, 05 Aug 2012 11:54:53 +0000 JR 685403@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>:o( That is distressing. It was so lovely too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-not-so-sunny-sunday#post-685368 Sun, 05 Aug 2012 05:00:02 +0000 Kari 685368@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh Deborah, that's so disappointing about the jacket! Darn. I've had that happen before with a piece that I fell in love with (I'm thinking of a fabulous patterned silk dress that started to literally shred on its second wear.) I'm very glad that the store was cooperative and will keep my fingers crossed that you can find a similar item. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-not-so-sunny-sunday#post-685312 Sun, 05 Aug 2012 03:48:44 +0000 Deborah 685312@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Claire today was the green bags first outing:). It was a birthday gift in June:) </p> <p>Sadly this was my jacket's second and last outing:( While out I noticed the fabric near the back shoulder seem had started to fray, not even at the seam! Dropped by the store where I bought it and turns out there is a fabric fault and jacket has been recalled. They were lovely and refunded me but I'm so disappointed. Anyway will be keeping my eye out for something similar. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-not-so-sunny-sunday#post-685303 Sun, 05 Aug 2012 03:31:05 +0000 Anonymous 685303@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love all that inky blue fabness on you Deborah!

I much prefer the cooler weather to the heat. And I prefer cool weather dressing too, more opportunities to layer;) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-not-so-sunny-sunday#post-685222 Sun, 05 Aug 2012 01:05:49 +0000 JR 685222@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'll send you a bit of our summer. It's 9pm, and it's still 31 outside. With humidity, 39. It was much worse during the day. Tomorrow, more of the same. I can hardly wait for it to break. I am actually wearing one of those cooling ties just to survive. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-not-so-sunny-sunday#post-685217 Sun, 05 Aug 2012 00:59:38 +0000 Deborah 685217@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lol JR.
