But I also really like the palette of #1 and the way it brightens up your face. And agree totally with Aida's comments on how you could tweak it.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tfall-2#post-1352958 Thu, 11 Sep 2014 15:15:02 +0000 Alana in Canada 1352958@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Lyn! I saw your outfit with the grey top and black topper. I must do something like that soon, I think. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tfall-2#post-1352896 Thu, 11 Sep 2014 13:44:04 +0000 lyn67 1352896@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>3 is my fave! But all of these are great Alana! I see you love your white jeans as much as I love mines, too, too:-). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tfall-2#post-1352889 Thu, 11 Sep 2014 13:33:44 +0000 Alana in Canada 1352889@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>shevia--would you prefer to see the cardigan either buttoned all the way or unbuttoned--is the partial buttoning the thing that irks?</p> <p>MsKatieKat--thank you. I didwonderif the necklace might be a touch algo. You give me confidence! I wish I had more tops with the length of #3. I could happily live in those all winter.</p> <p>bj1111, like this? --only with the white denim pants?

I especially like 2, 3 and 4.</p> <p>#2: love how you accessorized the neckline with a statement necklace!<br /> #3: my absolute fave in the bunch and it shows! The silhouette is fabulous on you! You wear long over lean very well. Grey and black combo also looks great on you. Definitely a neutral combo for your skintone!<br /> #4: loving the red and blue denim combo! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tfall-2#post-1352684 Thu, 11 Sep 2014 03:37:01 +0000 Jaime 1352684@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#3, #4 and #5 are terrific! I don't love the turtle neck, shirt combination or half buttoned cardigan in general. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tfall-2#post-1352642 Thu, 11 Sep 2014 03:00:45 +0000 bj1111 1352642@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>3 is my fave. The contrasting front is very slimming and the overall silhouette is modern.</p> <p>I think my fave of your wiws.</p> <p>Try the plaid shirt instead of the red shirt in 4, topped with the jean jacket. No turtle. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tfall-2#post-1352602 Thu, 11 Sep 2014 02:20:24 +0000 Alana in Canada 1352602@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Might as well be!&nbsp;<br />It is 5 degrees Celcius (40F) and it is 8:20pm.&nbsp;<br />I am in a sweater and jeans and socks and shoes and&nbsp;my hands are cold.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tfall-2#post-1352599 Thu, 11 Sep 2014 02:16:59 +0000 JAileen 1352599@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My favorites are #1 and #2. I like the plaid topper in one, and the monotone look in two.<br /> Where do you live, anyway, the North Pole? We're expected to be in the 90s this weekend, and I'm in shorts right now (7 pm). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tfall-2#post-1352547 Thu, 11 Sep 2014 01:30:40 +0000 Alana in Canada 1352547@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, Aida. That is exactly the sort of feedback I am looking for. After I'd been in the dressing room, I didn't put the turtleneck back on. And I have a ponte knit pant so we're sorted with respect to #5, too.<br />Thanks, Suz! I am glad you like #3. I am thinking of getting a denim pencil to wear with it--make it look a little less formal? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tfall-2#post-1352537 Thu, 11 Sep 2014 01:17:06 +0000 Aida 1352537@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looking good Alana! For #5, I'd say you need a pair of ponte pants instead of leggings. That way you've got the more substantial fabric but still the legging vibe (plus it'll be a lot warmer). #3 is my favorite, and #4 is a slam dunk as well. #2 looks good, and once you get your booties sorted would also look great with those. For #1 there are a couple of things. The turtleneck under the plaid shirt is tricky; I think it needs <i>some</i> really modern element added so that it's got that "purposely fashion" look to it. So I think that outfit would work better either 1) without the turtleneck (so just the plaid shirt and white jeans) or 2) with trendier footwear. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tfall-2#post-1352454 Wed, 10 Sep 2014 23:47:10 +0000 Suz 1352454@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Totally love #3. Great outfit on you and terrific silhouette, too. I like the others, too. #5 looks great from this end! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tfall-2#post-1352381 Wed, 10 Sep 2014 22:11:53 +0000 Alana in Canada 1352381@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you Vivian--it was fun to put on a sparkly top (that grey is a sort of metallic looking thread)&nbsp;and go out with hubs. We hadn't done that in a long time.<br />Dixie--thank you! Surpisingly, I liked the lower contrast of the grey with the white, instead of summer's more vibrant black and white. Yes, skinny jeans would be a help. I have thicker knit trousers for winter.&nbsp;<br />Zibbets, thank you! Except for the denim jacket (which I didn't wear that much) and the white jeans, pretty much everything is new.<br />Thanks Celia! I like it too.<br />Thanks Lisap. That's right. Yes, I would have my jacket or something over it. (smacks forehead)<br />So far <br />#1 no love,&nbsp;<br />#2 2/5<br />#3 3/5<br />#4 3/5<br />#5 good advice!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tfall-2#post-1352206 Wed, 10 Sep 2014 18:16:00 +0000 Anonymous 1352206@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love you in #3 - and re the shirt over leggings in the last pic: &nbsp;if you had to pop out, just throw and longer draped cardi or anorak&nbsp;on top, no? &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tfall-2#post-1352181 Wed, 10 Sep 2014 17:57:02 +0000 celia 1352181@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fabulous in your outfits. My favourite is #3 but the others are equally fab.<br />Reg #5 I wouldn't wear leggings with a top of that height . For me leggings are leggings, but a skinny jean would very good with that top. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tfall-2#post-1352167 Wed, 10 Sep 2014 17:33:52 +0000 Zibbets 1352167@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh, I love your new pieces! These are all great outfits, esp #2 and 4. </p> <p>Number 5 looks good here, but if it's riding up, you might feel more confident with a longer top or different bottoms. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tfall-2#post-1352160 Wed, 10 Sep 2014 17:23:45 +0000 Dixie 1352160@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVED #2. The colors, the necklace, the proportions.&nbsp;#4 is my second favourite, love the jean jacket with the red blouse.</p> <p>I don't think #5 is bad for outside&nbsp;as long as the fabric of the&nbsp;leggings is thick enough. You can wear black skinny jeans instead if you don't feel happy with the leggins. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tfall-2#post-1352148 Wed, 10 Sep 2014 17:10:09 +0000 Vivian 1352148@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looking good Alana, my favorites are 3 &amp;4. Keep smiling! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-tfall-2#post-1352019 Wed, 10 Sep 2014 14:28:31 +0000 Alana in Canada 1352019@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>TFall= Transitional Fall<br />Though, I think we might actually be in actual Fall as temps have been in the low single digits for the past few days--with sleet and rain.</p> <p>Anyway, as promised, the last 5 outfits:</p> <p>#1 I wore to the Pennington's evening sale. It is my white cotton turtleneck from years and years ago. It is stained--I am going to see if I can remove them. It is 100% cotton and warm--but a bit bulky. It is also short by today's standards. Also wearing my NYDJ jeans and fab flannel plaid shirt as a topper.&nbsp;</p> <p>#2. Inspired by <a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-casual-chanel-esque">Transcona Shannon.</a>&nbsp;</p> <p>#3 New top and leggings from Pennington's sale. Worn out on Cheescake date with hubby. High Happiness factor.</p> <p>#4 Previously posted as an ensemble. Worn for errand day.</p> <p>#5 Housecleaning day. ON re-order came in and I popped on this sweater over leggings. Let's call this my curvy Audrey outfit.&nbsp; </p> <p>All comments--especially ones to help me look better,&nbsp;welcome!&nbsp;</p> <p>I am a bit concerned that the outfit in #5 may not be appropriate for leaving the house? The back of the shirt&nbsp;kept riding up over my backside--and that's really not for public view in leggings. What do you think?</p> <p>I am working today, so I will pop in when I can. Have a great day.</p>
