I’m enjoying shorter hair (took off 10”) for a change!</p> <p><b>Suz</b>, it was a day for bundling up a bit. I figured, why not layer on the color as well?<br /><b><br />Joy</b>, what a nice thing to say, thank you. :)<br /><b><br />Cardiff girl</b>, thanks for your encouragement! Maybe I should check in with how I’m doing on that so that you and the Fab crew can keep me honest…<br /><b><br />Katerina</b>, many thanks! I will try to remember to keep pushing myself on color. :)</p> <p><b>RobinF</b>, thank you! It was a fun outfit to wear on a gray day!</p> <p><b>Sara L.</b>, thanks! My former self would have balked at mixing so many different shades in a color family. What was I thinking…I love to do it now!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-team-orange-purple-cranberry-red#post-1870184 Wed, 20 Dec 2017 15:27:54 +0000 Sara L. 1870184@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a fun look!&nbsp; I like the bright colors.&nbsp; The red boots and hat are fun little extras. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-team-orange-purple-cranberry-red#post-1870139 Wed, 20 Dec 2017 13:11:02 +0000 RobinF 1870139@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love these colors!

Lovely to see you post again, <b>Suzanne</b>. And your hair looks lovely. Silky and healthy.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-team-orange-purple-cranberry-red#post-1869895 Tue, 19 Dec 2017 18:20:06 +0000 Suzanne (ambergreen) 1869895@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Haven't posted WIWs in a while...this one is actually from last month and was partly inspired by Angie's linked ensemble post. But with today's discussion of orange <i>or</i> purple, even though I am very much Team Orange, I am with Angie in her comment re: enjoying them together, and that reminded me of this outfit. Oddly enough I didn't take a pic of the orange and purple items actually together! </p> <p>(Oh, and there's my orange phone case. But of course!)</p> <p>I suppose this outfit might qualify as sort of maximal, an aesthetic I've learned to enjoy more than I used to. The components are my typical blend of older and newer...the wine hat I knitted a few years ago, the orange paisley wrap thrifted also a few years ago. The purple Kenneth Cole puffer is about 10 years old. The colorblock sweater is a wildcard Coldwater Creek item from 2013 (it's deep pink and burgundy with odd neon red sleeves), the jeans are the split-hem Wit &amp; Wisdoms from NAS this year, the red boots are Fluevogs from 2015.</p> <p>This post is also a way of reminding myself that I want to be firmly on Team Wear What I Have rather than add more in 2018. </p>
