Maybe it's kind of like getting your "Masters", its taking you study to the highest level.</p> <p>Caro, yes, that is the target tunic.&nbsp; Katies have a quite nice hammered satin one at the moment too:)</p> <p>Happy Monday everyone. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-an-ordination#post-1266777 Sun, 01 Jun 2014 22:58:12 +0000 Anonymous 1266777@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Deborah, I love your ink and black together! The detail that thrills me the most is the way the right side of your tunic and jacket hems line up exactly. It's all in the details! Well, unless you took that picture in the mirror. In that case it's the left hems (I think. I'm getting really confused, lol)! You get the picture!&nbsp;<br />You look fantastic, modern, approachable and In Charge. I'm glad the event went well.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-an-ordination#post-1266767 Sun, 01 Jun 2014 22:47:21 +0000 Caro in Oz 1266767@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fab look. Is that the Target tunic? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-an-ordination#post-1266715 Sun, 01 Jun 2014 21:50:29 +0000 Lyn D. 1266715@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks perfect Deborah!<br />I thought a senior Pastor would already be ordained? How does that work? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-an-ordination#post-1266677 Sun, 01 Jun 2014 20:54:21 +0000 Zibbets 1266677@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous!

How exciting! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-an-ordination#post-1266675 Sun, 01 Jun 2014 20:52:41 +0000 Gigi 1266675@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful! It's professional and conservative but still stylish, with your little "Deborah" touch of the asymmetric hem.</p> <p>I can only imagine how stressful something like that must be to manage! I agree with Beth Ann that it makes such a big difference when everyone knows what they're supposed to be doing and when. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-an-ordination#post-1266533 Sun, 01 Jun 2014 18:16:32 +0000 Anonymous 1266533@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the blue and black!

Now </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-an-ordination#post-1266198 Sun, 01 Jun 2014 07:38:15 +0000 Deborah 1266198@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Fabbers, </p> <p>It's been a great Sunday. Our Senior Pastor was ordained today, which is a big thing in the Baptist Church. It was a big service with 4 other local ministers being ordained also and our auditorium was full to overflowing with attendance of about 650.</p> <p>I "stage managed" the event and had a ball. A few challenges along the way but this is part of the work I used to do in Melboune before I moved to Bendigo, and it felt really good.</p> <p>With my outfit, I wanted comfort, to look like me and still have an air of authority and professionalism. So I went for a trusty ensemble....leggings, booties, draped tunic and draped jacket. The leggings and jacket are both black ponte so kind of gives the impression of a modern suit?</p> <p>Pics taken after the event and I must say I'm a bit ragged...need a hot cuppa and a sit down. </p> <p>Thanks for looking and suggestions for improvement or ideas for restyling always very welcome.</p> <p>xxx Deborah </p>
