Wear and enjoy.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-orphan-challenge-day-2#post-1064280 Sat, 26 Oct 2013 19:51:15 +0000 shedev 1064280@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the sweater with the semi tuck in #1. I like the jeans too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-orphan-challenge-day-2#post-1064110 Sat, 26 Oct 2013 16:02:39 +0000 amiable 1064110@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm realizing that it's really too early in the season to go calling things orphans. &nbsp;Oh well - they are as yet unworn this season. &nbsp;So at least I'm remedying that, right? &nbsp;:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-orphan-challenge-day-2#post-1064108 Sat, 26 Oct 2013 15:55:08 +0000 Parsley 1064108@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gosh, that sweater is way too nice and versatile to be an orphan!<br />It should go with just about everything! I think it looks nice with the pants here, and it would like nice with just about any bright color of skinnies, or a pencil skirt, well, you name it!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-orphan-challenge-day-2#post-1064099 Sat, 26 Oct 2013 15:48:59 +0000 Neel 1064099@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the sweater and the pants! &nbsp;I understand this color of pants are a bit difficult to style (It looks more slate blue in the pic). &nbsp;But the fit seems to be perfect! &nbsp;You could also try the pants with white, cream, beige (other&nbsp;lighter shades of brown)&nbsp;toppers and darker brown accessories and boots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-orphan-challenge-day-2#post-1064094 Sat, 26 Oct 2013 15:43:08 +0000 Glory 1064094@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Amy my vote is to try them - that way if they get purged, somehow one feels even more victorious about it. I haven't started because I decided to make marmalade &nbsp;today lol. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-orphan-challenge-day-2#post-1064086 Sat, 26 Oct 2013 15:29:35 +0000 amiable 1064086@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah Glory - me too. &nbsp;</p> <p>And I'm planning some difficult-to-style pieces for next week - going through right now trying to decide whether to even try keeping them. &nbsp;And so far my kids and I have already filled ten bags (most of them big!)&nbsp;of random things to donate&nbsp;- we're on a roll!</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-orphan-challenge-day-2#post-1064073 Sat, 26 Oct 2013 15:08:41 +0000 Glory 1064073@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry Amy - not going to support filling any bags with these lovelies. I like the sweater and the pants on you. I say keep. I like 1 the best but I am a simple gal </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-orphan-challenge-day-2#post-1064067 Sat, 26 Oct 2013 15:03:54 +0000 Anonymous 1064067@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The sweater looks like a great layering piece for the winter. The bit of silver thread should keep it from being boring. I like all your stylings here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-orphan-challenge-day-2#post-1064061 Sat, 26 Oct 2013 14:59:44 +0000 amiable 1064061@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My second orphan (actually a couple of them) is a real basic, and I'm looking forward to wearing it lots. &nbsp;It's a black sweater, with a cowl neck and a silver thread. &nbsp;It's just a bit heavier than light-weight, but not really heavy, and I like the way it fits. &nbsp;I think it'll be one of those things that is basic enough to go with everything. &nbsp;The danger is that it's boring...</p> <p>I tried, and most of my jackets will fit over it (though some interfere with the collar). &nbsp;I think I haven't worn this yet because it looks really bulky in my drawer, and I've been worried that it would just be dark, heavy, and un-layerable. &nbsp;</p> <p>But I think it works anyway, and I'm looking keeping it.</p> <p>Just for fun, here it is with yesterday's lumberjack&nbsp;vest, and an assortment of other toppers (red vest, and olive utility jacket). &nbsp;I'm wearing it as in #1 so far.</p> <p>These teal snake-print jeans are also in danger of orphaning - I wore them lots last winter, but this is their first outing this season. &nbsp;I think I still like them. </p>
