I prefer slightly loose straight &nbsp;fit jeans versus straight slim cut - easy-polished . The coat and brooch are great together! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-old-and-new-and-a-brooch#post-2413250 Mon, 18 May 2026 21:00:01 +0000 Angie 2413250@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER fab! I echo <b>Lisa.</b></p> <p>One of your best, <b>Sal</b>! The cream cardigan is gorgeous with the cream boots and guava coat! Just. So. Punchy. </p> <p>Mum's interesting and pretty vintage brooch found the perfect home :)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-old-and-new-and-a-brooch#post-2413249 Mon, 18 May 2026 20:53:49 +0000 Lisa 2413249@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Pretty brooch! It adds so much interest and detail to the lovely colored coat. The ivory booties pair perfectly with the ivory cardigan. The light wash jeans are a nice addition to this softer palette too. And of course being a huge sunglasses fan I adore the sunnies here too, the perfect accessory for this outfit. You've got an excellent mix of old and new items all in one look. Bravo!&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-old-and-new-and-a-brooch#post-2413244 Mon, 18 May 2026 20:27:39 +0000 Sal 2413244@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Today I chose my new bag and cardigan to wear again. This time with lighter wash 90s straight jeans. I also pulled out my 2026 cream boots, a 2022 wool coat and a very old brooch of my Mum’s that I pulled out last week to wear to a breast cancer breakfast. I don’t know the age -Mum always called it her Scotch Thistle brooch. I also chose my aviators as it’s cold and clear.</p> <p>Off to work!</p> <p>Thanks to the forum who have inspired me to wear brooches again. </p>
