I'll order a pair next payday. I also like the split cropped pants and might have to put them on my list for the pay after. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shop-girl-style/page/2#post-1575204 Fri, 23 Oct 2015 02:34:35 +0000 Jaime 1575204@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>First time I have really seen the advantage of these skirted leggings. I hope Motto uses you in their advertising campaign! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shop-girl-style/page/2#post-1575164 Fri, 23 Oct 2015 00:16:22 +0000 Deborah 1575164@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gryffin quality is excellent! As good as Metalicus but their pricing is better:). Yes it's really my essentials that I am talking about because Motto produce the same kind of items as Metalicus and it seems silly to replicate but I need the Motto versions for work...and ofcourse they translate perfectly into my 'regular' life xx </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shop-girl-style/page/2#post-1575158 Thu, 22 Oct 2015 23:47:50 +0000 Peri 1575158@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like these, and I have never been tempted by any other pair. It seems they are a bit longer than the EF ones that hit the board a while back. True? They look more like an actual skirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shop-girl-style#post-1575142 Thu, 22 Oct 2015 22:43:06 +0000 Brooklyn 1575142@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great Deborah. Love the neckline and agree no further embellishment is required. I tend to agree with smittie and Aida about black in spring. But it will feel right again come summer! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shop-girl-style#post-1575135 Thu, 22 Oct 2015 22:11:18 +0000 gryffin 1575135@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Deborah - is the quality of Motto better than your other pieces? &nbsp;or is it their ability to take that basic and make is special? that is making you want to replace? &nbsp;Love the new skirt and I can see it working brilliantly in your wardrobe! &nbsp;Glad you get a great staff discount because it must be like being a chocoholic at godiva!! &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shop-girl-style#post-1575126 Thu, 22 Oct 2015 21:55:43 +0000 Aida 1575126@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely outfit Deborah. Minimal yet dramatic lines. I was thinking similarly to Smittie. Is this a little less texture than you usually incorporate with your black? Over winter you can go crazy with texture and in summer you can show skin. Perhaps something of those qualities feel missing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shop-girl-style#post-1575106 Thu, 22 Oct 2015 20:52:58 +0000 Lyn D. 1575106@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are looking fantastic Deborah, and I like it that we have an inside adviser for Motto now </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shop-girl-style#post-1575101 Thu, 22 Oct 2015 20:42:46 +0000 Deborah 1575101@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lisa $AU25.00 flat shipping rate for overseas:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shop-girl-style#post-1575085 Thu, 22 Oct 2015 20:09:54 +0000 Anonymous 1575085@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I absolutely want a pair of these leggings!! &nbsp;What would it cost to ship to Canada? &nbsp;And shopping would be fun indeed, although I'm a bit adhd when shopping and totally lose focus and interest rather quickly More than a road trip- it would be an intercontinental adventure!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shop-girl-style#post-1575083 Thu, 22 Oct 2015 20:02:30 +0000 kerlyn 1575083@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fantastic! &nbsp;I agree, no embellishment needed with that lovely neckline. &nbsp;Just great earrings!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shop-girl-style#post-1575075 Thu, 22 Oct 2015 19:53:43 +0000 Beth Ann 1575075@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the detail in the top, Deborah.&nbsp; It's open, face framing quality is lovely.&nbsp; It's rare to find an open neck that isn't gaping and low!</p> <p>Glad you're enjoying your new job! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shop-girl-style#post-1575005 Thu, 22 Oct 2015 16:58:31 +0000 rachylou 1575005@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great!

Every outfit you out together looks fantastic..including this one! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shop-girl-style#post-1574949 Thu, 22 Oct 2015 14:06:33 +0000 Anonymous 1574949@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the neckline of this. It is so pretty.&nbsp;<br />I find wearing black in the spring a bit odd because you still have to wear a lot of fabric, and that much black feels odd with the spring lighting conditions.&nbsp;<br />In the summer, because you're showing more skin, going back to black feels ok.<br />That's my take anyway </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shop-girl-style#post-1574947 Thu, 22 Oct 2015 14:00:26 +0000 Jenn 1574947@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh, that does look a lot like the HL bra top. I agree you don't need any more embellishment at the neck. The lines of this outfit speak for themselves.&nbsp;</p> <p>I wonder if maybe your discomfort with all black has to do with the season change, rather than a style shift. It seems like there's always an impulse to lighten up for the summer and revert to darker colors in the winter. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shop-girl-style#post-1574930 Thu, 22 Oct 2015 13:09:20 +0000 Anonymous 1574930@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stunning, Deborah. I love the neckline on the top and agree that accessories would only detract. I know what you mean about black--I'm not loving my black items like I used to either--but in this case I think the low scoop and drape detail of the outfit are best in black given their dramatic standout factor. I covet those leggings too. Like Elizabeth, I like my EFs, but they are short (I even sized up to get more length), but yours are perfect. So .... when is Motto opening in the US? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shop-girl-style#post-1574926 Thu, 22 Oct 2015 13:03:06 +0000 Deborah 1574926@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh Lisa and Elizabeth a road trip indeed! Shopping with you both would be too much fun:). My offer stands if you decide you want a pair xxx </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shop-girl-style#post-1574924 Thu, 22 Oct 2015 13:02:32 +0000 dakotacheryl 1574924@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Deb, I have been so busy with work and traveling (combined with poor sleep habits due to hot flashes), that I haven't spent my usual amount of time reading and posting here at YLF.</p> <p>I totally missed your posts about the new job!!!! &nbsp;How exciting and fun and so perfect for you. And they are so LUCKY to have you on their team at Motto.</p> <p>Love this look, and those fantastic boots!! &nbsp;And I agree with you on not wearing a necklace when the top has a neckline detail...I usually reserve my "statement" earrings for my no-necklace days. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shop-girl-style#post-1574921 Thu, 22 Oct 2015 12:51:17 +0000 Elizabeth P 1574921@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lisa...

It's too bad you're not "feeling" the black, because you look absolutely stunning here.</p> <p>And I'm seriously thinking about getting you to send me a pair of those leggings... I love my EF ones, and I think I like these even more!&nbsp; They seem slightly longer, and asymmetry always tugs at my heartstrings.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shop-girl-style#post-1574911 Thu, 22 Oct 2015 12:19:12 +0000 Deborah 1574911@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Helen, I would be thrilled to share. &nbsp;I adore Faye Browne's style she has a very cool edge:)</p> <p>Gryffin thank you! &nbsp;I am seriously considering another pair of the skirted leggings. &nbsp;I get quite a generous staff discount so it wouldn't be too much on the budget. &nbsp;Like you, now that I have them I am not sure I could be without them. &nbsp;Hmm now lets talk about temptation lol. &nbsp;Of course I have had to buy a few things so I have a little capsule for work but I can't see it stopping there ha ha. &nbsp;Today I came home with a new skirt (#1)!!! &nbsp;I am seriously considering selling off a few things in my closet as I can see myself 'replacing' some staple type items with the Motto versions now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shop-girl-style#post-1574903 Thu, 22 Oct 2015 11:42:42 +0000 gryffin 1574903@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Deborah - Congrats on the new job!!&nbsp; I am sure you will be brilliant but I don't want to think about all the temptation!!&nbsp; Well dear girl, welcome to the dark side of skirted leggings.&nbsp; I wear mine at least twice a week, and have them on today, and I could literally wear them every day.&nbsp; I am squirrelling quite a stockpile.&nbsp; Two in rotation (one in hard use, the other for dressier wear) and three in the duplicate holding zone and I'll probably add a 4th (since I can't live without them now).&nbsp; Thank heavens Nordstrom has them on the replenishment plan but, as you said, you don't know how long this windfall will last.&nbsp; Chic, easy, endlessly versatile - enjoy them.&nbsp; BTW, look marvelous with the top and booties!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shop-girl-style#post-1574902 Thu, 22 Oct 2015 11:35:29 +0000 Helen11 1574902@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Deborah, you look fab as always : ) Your visit to Melbourne will be really exciting - I hope you can give us some of the highlights when you get back! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shop-girl-style#post-1574897 Thu, 22 Oct 2015 10:55:48 +0000 Deborah 1574897@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks so much ladies! As much as I love Motto, the challenge (and fun) is in making it mine. I don't want to simply copy their catalogue stylings, I want to bring my own "flavour" to the outfits:).</p> <p>Coco, if it works for your budget I would say buy them now. They sold out and they have restocked but I don't know about next year. I can find out tho if they are a staple in their range. They have quite a few versions of the skirted leggings this season but these would be the most pure of the designs:). I'm quite excited as I am spending two days in Melbourne next week with Faye Browne the designer and the team learning all about Motto!</p> <p>Lol Lucy, I can only encourage you !! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shop-girl-style#post-1574890 Thu, 22 Oct 2015 09:41:26 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 1574890@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Back to black too I see. &nbsp;:) &nbsp;This is a great example of layering done right and adding visual interest to an all-black outfit. &nbsp;Very inspiring Deborah. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shop-girl-style#post-1574877 Thu, 22 Oct 2015 08:40:09 +0000 rute 1574877@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>you look AMAZING and that red lip is perfect! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shop-girl-style#post-1574872 Thu, 22 Oct 2015 08:26:39 +0000 Lucy 1574872@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love!
