Those boots are all comfy wonders that have saved my life since I've been injured, but I'm glad they're also fab to look at! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-this-week-and-a-boden-kr#post-1988951 Sat, 05 Jan 2019 19:01:43 +0000 kkards 1988951@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That H&amp;M sweater is fab! And love the burgundy with the olive. And all the boots! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-this-week-and-a-boden-kr#post-1988943 Sat, 05 Jan 2019 18:18:09 +0000 Christina F. 1988943@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Barbara Diane! I did. And finally I received a book! Usually I get multiple books, but I guess my insistence on kindle puts off gifting. </p> <p>Karen - hi boot twin! They’re so shiny, and I’m glad the new top made such a nice pairing.</p> <p>Suz - haha! I did buy that cashmere hoodie. You were the final straw for me. </p> <p>smittie - no kidding! I’m good on winter but don’t need any spring clothes now. They’d just take up space until April. I hope to score some on sale down the road. The Boden Bernadette sweater was navy with smaller frills, but it ran small. I sent it back without ordering a new size but I still may down the road. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-this-week-and-a-boden-kr#post-1988775 Sat, 05 Jan 2019 01:43:16 +0000 Anonymous 1988775@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like your husband’s choice of necklace. Very sweet.<br /> Yes, I think you should return the navy sweater because the neckline looks too big and you’d be fussing with it.<br /> I do like the idea of a few frills though :-)</p> <p>I too have seen all the new stuff at Boden. It is all so good. The only thing saving me is that I need winter clothes not spring ones! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-this-week-and-a-boden-kr#post-1988657 Fri, 04 Jan 2019 21:29:24 +0000 Suz 1988657@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look terrific! I love the Boden roll-neck on you. (And once again, you tempt me to shop!! You are a devil for that, you know!) The H&amp;M sweater is also fab. And your holiday outfit looks quietly elegant.&nbsp;</p> <p>Agree about the top. It's nice, but you have nicer.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-this-week-and-a-boden-kr#post-1988649 Fri, 04 Jan 2019 21:01:31 +0000 karen13 1988649@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love these looks - my fave is #2 - and not just because we are now boot twins! I love those bootcuts and sweater too! Great deal on the H&amp;M! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-this-week-and-a-boden-kr#post-1988621 Fri, 04 Jan 2019 19:18:40 +0000 Barbara Diane 1988621@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Have a wonderful late Christmas tonight. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-this-week-and-a-boden-kr#post-1988609 Fri, 04 Jan 2019 17:52:49 +0000 Christina F. 1988609@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div><b>Angie</b>, I've always loved stripes though I went off them a bit until this fall. So many colorful options now! I can't resist.</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Delurked, </b>oddly enough, a navy knit longsleeve top (like a rib knit) or sweater is the one wardrobe essential I'm missing right now. I agree that this one ain't it, and it's too fussy to be a true essential anyway. NEXT!<br /></div><div><br /></div><div><b>Gretchen</b>, no worries, I'm very happy with the H&amp;M top. Boden has gotten plenty of my money anyway. This top is by Divided by H&amp;M, so it's even their cheaper line. When I poke around the stores near my office on lunchtime walks I'll be sure to keep H&amp;M in the rotation. This top isn't Boden quality but it's much nicer than what I'd usually expect from H&amp;M, especially for $17!<br /></div></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-this-week-and-a-boden-kr#post-1988608 Fri, 04 Jan 2019 17:47:16 +0000 Gretchen 1988608@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agree the Boden top is cute, but it doesn’t sing on you like that stripe top does. I’d vote return the Boden and double down on H&amp;M. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-this-week-and-a-boden-kr#post-1988599 Fri, 04 Jan 2019 17:16:54 +0000 delurked 1988599@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m in agreement about returning the Boden sweater. You’ve got a lot of great tops and sweaters. No need to keep this. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-this-week-and-a-boden-kr#post-1988594 Fri, 04 Jan 2019 16:58:46 +0000 Angie 1988594@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's handy to have a Fast Fall Back Outfit (FFBO) that makes you feel great. And you look great! An effective formula that is comfy, practical and colour-rich for interest.&nbsp;</p> <p>H&amp;M top is fabulous. Good find.&nbsp;</p> <p>You've caught the stripe bug like me :)</p> <p>ETA:&nbsp;I forgot to mention the Boden ruffle top. Agree to return it.&nbsp;</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-this-week-and-a-boden-kr#post-1988577 Fri, 04 Jan 2019 15:31:38 +0000 Christina F. 1988577@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>This week, I defaulted to my winter uniform of jeans, sweater or warm top and booties. I've been scrambling to do a lot of stuff this week, as we are still celebrating Christmas (!), and stuff needed to be done at home after our trip. Once I can plan more, I hope to vary my silhouette a bit by adding skirts, dresses and blazers/knit toppers. This is my FFBO, and I have achieved some variety of shape and color with it this week, at least.<br /> </div><div><br /> </div><div>Unsurprisingly, Boden features heavily, but there's a surprise appearance from H&amp;M.<br /> </div><div><br /> </div><div>1. Boden T-neck and Democracy jeans (aka Wit &amp; Wisdom, but from Amazon). Born boots. A different color palette for me. I have this t-neck in two colors and it's about as thick and warm as a sweater. I was tired in this picture and I look it.<br /> </div><div><br /> </div><div>2. H&amp;M top, Wit &amp; Wisdom jeans, Naturalizer booties. The boots are showstoppers. Just gorgeous. I'm into all the bright stripes right now, and this top is VERY nice for the price I paid. (&lt;$20)<br /> </div><div><br /> </div><div>3, 4, 5. Boden sweater, AT jeans, and Born booties. Also, I'm wearing a necklace that my husband gave me for Christmas. He likes to go to the holiday market and buy directly for me from artisans. My choice here to wear muted Christmas colors reflects that we're having a belated Christmas celebration with my BIL, SIL and niece tonight.</div><div><br /> </div><div>6,7. This is a K/R but my impulse to is to return, actually. This is a nice sweater but maybe a bit too girly for my current taste. Angie said this sweater was good on wider shoulders. I certainly don't have wide shoulders, so that may be part of why I'm not feeling it. It's probably not the most flattering thing on me. I post this in case anyone is interested in this item. I got it from Nordstrom, though it's Boden.</div><div></div> </p>
