You really do have some amazing thrift/consignment shops nearby. Now this is how to mix high-and-low, old-and-new. The light blue in #1 looks fresh and soft. Totally smitten with the long ruched shorts in #1 and cool pants in #4. Adore the checks and fun vibe of #2, that's such a great blouse (I regret passing that one up!). And the pastel+black pairings in #3 and 4 are super. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-summer-edition#post-1262392 Tue, 27 May 2014 21:26:54 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1262392@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shevia, you are gorgeous and chic in each of these outfits. I love your summer style. I love, love your haircut, too! It's so flattering and complements your style beautifully. I really like the lines of all these shorts and pants; great lengths and shapes on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-summer-edition#post-1262304 Tue, 27 May 2014 19:41:19 +0000 kellygirl 1262304@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have impeccable summer style, Shevia! Your summer WIWs are truly inspirational. LOVE all of them but especially #4. It's SO fab! The detailing on the legs of the pants looks so cool.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-summer-edition#post-1262210 Tue, 27 May 2014 17:27:44 +0000 neonginger 1262210@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Loving #1 and 3, but you do&nbsp;look fab in all of these! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-summer-edition#post-1262208 Tue, 27 May 2014 17:24:35 +0000 rabbit 1262208@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love all of these although 1 and 3 are really killing me. &nbsp;I'm keeping an eye out for ankle-strap flats and shorts that shape. &nbsp;Also dying over the McQ blouse.</p> <p>I love thrifting but have never found&nbsp;anything very designer-- although I've found well-made solid workhorses that are wardrobe staples for me. I think I might need to check out designer consignment just to get a feel for how the prices and selection run in my city. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-summer-edition#post-1262145 Tue, 27 May 2014 15:54:03 +0000 Inge 1262145@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shevia, you are my go-to inspiration for warmer weather dressing, you always get it exactly right! All four outfits are fab. You have such an amazing collection of tops and love how you've paired them here with different pant silhouettes and styles of footwear.<br />And I still absolutely adore those ankle strap pumps on you!-)</p> <p>Ooh, and I think we are sweater twins: I have that J.Crew linen sweater in lilac (in fact, I'm wearing it today), and am very happy with it.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-summer-edition#post-1262104 Tue, 27 May 2014 14:47:44 +0000 Angie 1262104@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>And Shevia rocks her signature long shorts looks with sass and&nbsp;panache. (Isn't the ankle strap shoe the best little darling <i>ever</i>?). I vote killer all round, you gorgeous creature. xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-summer-edition#post-1262101 Tue, 27 May 2014 14:42:55 +0000 texstyle 1262101@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfits shevia - esp. love #1 and #4. The linen jcrew sweaters are so nice and light for summer - I have a cardi version and decided to try a V-neck too (haven't gotten it yet). I wonder if it will require a cami under it...</p> <p>And I always like to see your shoe selection - always great choices.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-summer-edition#post-1262074 Tue, 27 May 2014 14:21:32 +0000 Jaime 1262074@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you for your kind words. I actually enjoy summer dressing because I get to try out all sorts of shorts. I guess it is what Angie says about some skin adding structure to oversized looks.</p> <p>Ladywone, I accept your compliment happily, but a good part of it is my luck to live near some of the best thrift stores I have seen.&nbsp;<br />Pil my hair is shorter on one side now. Best of both worlds for me.<br />I have to take my son to a lesson&nbsp;or I would love to reply to you each personally. Thank you again!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-summer-edition#post-1261985 Tue, 27 May 2014 13:08:19 +0000 Ledonna N. 1261985@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow you just look so fresh and summer ready.&nbsp; I to am an avid thrifter maybe 90% of my wardrobe is thrift and you are a master thrifter. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-summer-edition#post-1261981 Tue, 27 May 2014 13:03:06 +0000 JG 1261981@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I adore the first outfit, combining the new sweater and shoes and the older shorts. Beautiful colors, perfect fit, modern.<br /> I've "been there/worn that" and occasionally find a perfectly fitting, well-made, style refresher in the back of the closet or at the thrift store. Retail prices seem outrageous in comparison but you clearly have great style and buy wisely. I'm trying to develop the judgment to hang on to the right items, to thrift only the right items, and to feel good about paying full price for clothes that I love. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-summer-edition#post-1261972 Tue, 27 May 2014 12:51:58 +0000 Suz 1261972@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look amazing in all of these! Chuckling about the sleeve scrunch -- that happens to me sometimes, too. The DV shoes/ sandals look great. I like the little baby wedge on them. Crazy about the Miu Miu shorts, too. What a great length for shorts.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-summer-edition#post-1261963 Tue, 27 May 2014 12:48:12 +0000 Neel 1261963@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the RC pants in 4! And you rock shorts like nobody's business! Gorgeous looks and its hard to pick a favorite. But I think 2 is my absolute favorite because of the black and white ensemble with the pop of red. The shoes in it are killer too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-summer-edition#post-1261962 Tue, 27 May 2014 12:46:49 +0000 pil 1261962@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You always find the most unique and interesting pieces thrifting. The blue sweater is such a gorgeous color on you and I especially love the shorts too. Have you changed your haircut or is it pulled back on the one side? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-summer-edition#post-1261959 Tue, 27 May 2014 12:43:37 +0000 LoriFLA 1261959@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think every outfit is great. &nbsp;Love the color combo in #1 -- so fresh. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-summer-edition#post-1261957 Tue, 27 May 2014 12:40:07 +0000 amiable 1261957@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfits! &nbsp;So fun to see the summer inspiration! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-summer-edition#post-1261948 Tue, 27 May 2014 12:30:15 +0000 Anonymous 1261948@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All great looks! I think my favorite is #1. The colors and relaxed feel remind me of the beach, but then the shoes give it a little edge. And I'm so envious of what you find at thrift/consignment. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-summer-edition#post-1261931 Tue, 27 May 2014 12:03:21 +0000 Jaime 1261931@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Janet I thought the same thing when I saw the picture! I am sure I scrunched them when I was out and about.<br />Thanks&nbsp;Ceit I think everyone needs more hats!<br />Thank you Mona - summer has been welcomed and made itself quite at home already. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-summer-edition#post-1261925 Tue, 27 May 2014 11:53:58 +0000 Mona 1261925@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfits as always. I love #1 and 2. You look ready to welcome summer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-summer-edition#post-1261924 Tue, 27 May 2014 11:50:03 +0000 Janet 1261924@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love those Miu Miu shorts! You look great in all of these. I want to see the sleeves scrunched in #1. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-summer-edition#post-1261920 Tue, 27 May 2014 11:42:46 +0000 Anonymous 1261920@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love all of these. I must find some more hats for summer! I am down to one, and it's looking kind of raggedy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-summer-edition#post-1261916 Tue, 27 May 2014 11:40:20 +0000 Jaime 1261916@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well it is has been comfortably in the 80s but summer is in full swing. I have been thinking about how much of my outfits are old vs. new, both in terms thrifting and time in my closet. The only new things here that entered my closet recently were the J Crew sweater, and the DV Geo shoes. The oldest things are the Miu Miu shorts, Daniella Lehavi shoes, and McQ blouse, which were all consignment purchases. All cheaper than the J Crew sweater, even though that was on sale. Not sure what I learned from that! Anyway, all thoughts, suggestions or comments appreciated! Thanks for looking.&nbsp;</p> <p>1. Linen J Crew sweater, Miu Miu shorts (2nd hand), DV Geo shoes.<br />2. "Angie" Funktional blouse, thrifted black shorts, Daniella Lehavi shoes (2nd hand), Emidio Tucci red bag (2nd hand)<br />3. McQ blouse, thrifted black shorts, Tibi shoes (2nd hand)<br />4. Zara blouse, Ronen Chen pants (thrifted), Yuko Imanishi shoes </p>
