Bravo to you for looking smashing while you juggle all that — to look at you, one would never know. Polished and cool as a cucumber! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-last-few-days-2#post-2412090 Sun, 03 May 2026 18:04:54 +0000 kellygirl 2412090@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So sorry about your half sister's predicament. I hear more and more of this going on. Terrible. You, OTOH, look fantastic. I think the teal blazer outfit is my fave with #2 next. Gorgeous! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-last-few-days-2#post-2412037 Sat, 02 May 2026 19:06:51 +0000 Suz 2412037@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, <b>Mary,</b><b></b> what a week! I don't envy you the task with your half-sister. These scams are beyond ridiculous and there are now so many of them preying on the gullible or the just plain unguarded. I almost fell for one myself a few years' back. Not one like you describe but the "kid in trouble" one. It was a vulnerable moment. I was not at my sharpest. I'd been hit by a car the previous day and was still shaky. Fortunately I got suspicious before anything untoward happened.&nbsp;</p> <p>In any case, you look great in all of these! Fab outfits all round. My faves are 1 and 4 -- great to have a standby for the podium and I really like the snake with the burgundy.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-last-few-days-2#post-2412014 Sat, 02 May 2026 03:10:39 +0000 Lisa 2412014@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yikes to your sister! Hopefully it works out!</p> <p>You're doing a great job of staying stylish while super busy! I especially like how you bookend footwear with your outfits (such as #4) or let the shoes be the star of the outfit (such as the fun silver in #2). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-last-few-days-2#post-2411960 Fri, 01 May 2026 16:27:10 +0000 MsMary 2411960@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, everyone! I promise I will share the short version of my sister's story once the case is disposed of! (Honestly it's the craziest thing I've heard of in a LONG LONG TIME!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-last-few-days-2#post-2411955 Fri, 01 May 2026 15:00:55 +0000 bella 2411955@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd love to hear that story actually, but good luck for now at the court.&nbsp;<br />IT is great to have a functional, reliable wardrobe. All outfits are great, but I love the burgundy palette in the last one.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-last-few-days-2#post-2411933 Thu, 30 Apr 2026 23:08:52 +0000 Jaime 2411933@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok defending my long lost half sister against an internet scammer is one of the most intriguing reasons to be busy I've heard! Sounds like the premise of a movie really . Good luck at any rate!<br />Meanwhile your business has only sharpened your outfits. These all look great. I especially like #2. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-last-few-days-2#post-2411920 Thu, 30 Apr 2026 18:04:20 +0000 LJP 2411920@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Omg your sister’s case ! Anyways , this is a collection of beautifully polished and assembled looks - I especially like the teal / pleated skirt combo ( and I like those glasses on you too ). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-last-few-days-2#post-2411896 Thu, 30 Apr 2026 14:52:11 +0000 Roberta 2411896@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was just thinking that I would love to see your closet! You always look so elegant without any feeling of overthinking the process. The burgundy and snake combo is particularly good looking. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-last-few-days-2#post-2411893 Thu, 30 Apr 2026 14:19:12 +0000 Debbie 2411893@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Everything looks amazing.

Love the juxtaposition in 3, and the burgundy and snake print in 4 is so rich - excellent combo. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-last-few-days-2#post-2411855 Thu, 30 Apr 2026 03:26:28 +0000 slim cat 2411855@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WOW!

(No, an A-List movie star was NOT messaging you on Facebook...) No time to breathe, let alone take or post outfit photos!! Anyway...</p> <p>1. Today was our Rotary Club's annual Teachers of Excellence awards luncheon and I was in charge of the whole thing. We've been working for months to choose five excellent educators and we presented them with cash awards, certificates, and best of all the school district made a short video about each of them and there was not a dry eye in the house. Tons of work but it was a huge success. You've seen this outfit before -- all the pieces are old standbys -- but it was good for being on the podium.</p> <p>2. Last night we went to a supper club meeting and I wore this jacket my husband bought me a couple of Christmases ago, along with shiny silver shoes to match the buttons. Big fun although I wish I didn't look so busty in the photo. Fun fact: The stripes on the cuffs of the black jacket are navy, so I got bold and teamed it with navy pants.</p> <p>3. Voice lesson on Tuesday and I grabbed something easy. The jacket is ancient, the knit top is from my working days, and the jeans are my old beloved Gap Sexy Boyfriends. The sneakers jumped out of a store window in Amsterdam a few years ago and followed me home.</p> <p>4. This is from last week. I wore this to Glee Club in the morning and then changed out the maroon jacket and booties for black to go to a funeral in the afternoon.&nbsp;</p> <p>It's times like this when I'm happy to have a nice functional closet! Thanks for looking and commenting if you are so inspired! </p>
