It is a linen blend, and very drapey. Reminds me of the sweater you are wearing today. :)</p> <p>Ceit, F&amp;B are maybe my favourite pair of boots. I've had them at least four years. And they are problem the most complimented item in my wardrobe. I think I will probably wear them forever!</p> <p>Angie, that is interesting that you mentioned UWP. I definitely have elements of it in my style, though I usually keep it to one piece at a time. I'm definitely very simple and I like to go quite feminine with it at times as well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-book-club#post-812944 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 17:44:13 +0000 Sarah A 812944@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this great style.... and I dont think the bag is too big at all! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-book-club#post-812917 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 17:23:48 +0000 Anonymous 812917@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the stripes are great on you! I have been loving those boots for years too - they are amazing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-book-club#post-812890 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 17:09:43 +0000 ManidipaM 812890@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm finding these stripes chic, rather than widening, on you! Maybe it's just that you do a superb job of breaking them up with the scarf --- great tonal mix, by the way --- but I feel like a strong, straight shoulder line is often beautifully flattered by striped shirts like these.</p> <p>And that is a delicious-looking bag! I'm betting you'll find it very versatile for all occasions, from work to play, except maybe dressy evenings! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-book-club#post-812863 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 16:54:31 +0000 Transcona Shannon 812863@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is fabulous! and I'm looking for exactly that type of drapey striped top - may I ask what brand that is Tina? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-book-club#post-812852 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 16:38:01 +0000 Anonymous 812852@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love your casual and pulled-together style.

(errr, not for a cocktail party? ) I like that bag though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-book-club#post-812752 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 15:09:26 +0000 Tina.b 812752@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I meet once a month with a fabulous group of women for our book club. They are such an articulate, interesting, fun and fashionable group of people, I enjoy it so much. We had a great discussion last night along with drinks and appetizers, it was a lovely evening.</p> <p>My outfit was fairly casual as I kept on the same thing I wore during the day. My nine year old son has been home sick with the flu for the past four days and I've been attending to him. I cannot remember a time that one of my children has been taken down so hard by an illness, it is horrible. Thinking he is on the upswing this morning, thankfully.</p> <p>So, what I wore... I will confess that I am not a great lover of stripes on myself at all. Love them on other people, yet they seem super widening on me. I think it is my broad shoulders. Although the pic doesn't really show it, the sweater is quite drapey which makes the stripes hang more asymmetrically, which helps me some. </p> <p>I paired with with my new scarf. I'm so not a scarf girl at all, partly the fiddliness, and I think I look best when I show some neck. But I kind of enjoyed it in combination with the stripes, tempered them somehow. </p> <p>Fiorentini and Baker Eternity boots. And my new bag, the Phillip Lim Pashli. I'm completely enchanted with dark green at the moment, and have wanted this bag for a while. They recently added a shoulder strap to it which compelled me to buy it. I do think it is a little big. I'm fairly tall with a large frame, so it could definitely overwhelm some. I'm keeping it in any case because it is quite fab. But I'm wondering, what type of outfits does a larger bag pair best with? </p>
