The tee and the slim jeans, with the shot of color near your face, are such a stylish combo; really works for your figure and the outfit looks perfect for the occasion (as a former middle school teacher, I can tell you that you look like a VERY stylish MOTG!). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-take-my-oldest-daughter-to-middle-school-orientation#post-709284 Sat, 01 Sep 2012 13:17:45 +0000 Queen Mum 709284@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>that blue is such a wonderful color on you!

Love that blue scarf - such a pretty color! And it's tough to go wrong with a white top and denim (says the girl who wore that combo today, so I'm probably biased!). You have a bunch of great resources for scarf tying but here are two more:</p> <p><a href="http://www.scarves.net/scarf-tying-index.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.scarves.net/scarf-tying-index.html</a><br /> <a href="http://www.maitaispicturebook.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.maitaispicturebook.com</a> (look for the how-to's and and blog posts by knot top on the right hand side)</p> <p>Congrats on the first WIW - it gets easier (and even gets to be fun!). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-take-my-oldest-daughter-to-middle-school-orientation#post-709115 Sat, 01 Sep 2012 03:32:58 +0000 RunningSue 709115@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone! I watched the scarf tutorial and was amazed at the multitude of ways you ca tie a scarf. Who knew? I watched Angie's video and will give that one a try as well. I will take all your advice and apply it. I will try tying the scarf, ask my DD to snap some photos and post the results.</p> <p>It took me a while to have the courage to post and I am glad I did. Thanks for the positive feedback. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-take-my-oldest-daughter-to-middle-school-orientation#post-709109 Sat, 01 Sep 2012 03:30:03 +0000 MsLuna 709109@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So chic and relaxed! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-take-my-oldest-daughter-to-middle-school-orientation#post-709108 Sat, 01 Sep 2012 03:28:26 +0000 Beth Ann 709108@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A shot of color near the face is a great way to take a polished casual outfit up a notch. I love the color, and your top and jeans are classic and well chosen. I'd suggest twisting the scarf loosely before you tie it -- It'll reign in the volume just a bit!</p> <p>Welcome to WIW. It does get easier, and it's very helpful, even when though it's a bit unnerving. Keep posting, and best of wishes on the new school year! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-take-my-oldest-daughter-to-middle-school-orientation#post-709003 Sat, 01 Sep 2012 01:51:10 +0000 Aida 709003@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The three of you look great ^^ I would suggest making the loop part of your scarf bigger so the whole thing is more dramatic if you're going to wear it this way. And perhaps adding a silver or gold cuff? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-take-my-oldest-daughter-to-middle-school-orientation#post-708936 Sat, 01 Sep 2012 00:09:25 +0000 Suz 708936@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a beautiful family! LOVELY T, and the slim jeans are great on your running-slim bod! I am quite useless about the scarf, but there are some tying tutorials online if you google. Or I hope someone in the know will link you to them. Someone DID link me, ages ago, but of course I lost the link! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-take-my-oldest-daughter-to-middle-school-orientation#post-708925 Sat, 01 Sep 2012 00:03:16 +0000 Angie 708925@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look adorable - just like your dear daughters </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-take-my-oldest-daughter-to-middle-school-orientation#post-708923 Sat, 01 Sep 2012 00:00:48 +0000 Anonymous 708923@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the blue and white. To my eye you have a lovely IT body - great shoulders and arms and nice slender hips and legs. The jeans look great on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-take-my-oldest-daughter-to-middle-school-orientation#post-708845 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 22:41:25 +0000 Transcona Shannon 708845@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congrats on your first WIW! It gets easier, trust me.</p> <p>Beautiful combination of blue and white on you and your jeans look like a fantastic fit. Sarah's given you some great links for scarf tying. Looking forward to seeing more! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-take-my-oldest-daughter-to-middle-school-orientation#post-708837 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 22:37:44 +0000 sarah 708837@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look so fresh and pretty in blue and white! There are lots of different ways to tie scarves - see ClearlyClaire's posts for one way where if you took the right side (your left) and tucked it over and through, it might contain the ends a bit.

You and your girls are all so cute. The blue/white looks really good on you and the slim jeans are working.</p> <p>Not sure about the scarf tying. I usually try to go for a really light silk chiffon for summer so there isn't much weight to it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-take-my-oldest-daughter-to-middle-school-orientation#post-708824 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 22:24:04 +0000 RunningSue 708824@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My first WIW post (yes I am nervous about the comments). My oldest starts middle school next week so I wanted to dress like a stylish MOTG. The first picture includes my youngest and oldest daughters. Still trying to figure out how to tie a scarf so it does not overwhelm me. Any comments appreciated.</p> <p>James Perse ballet top (sized up to a 3 so it is looser)<br /> AG Capris<br /> Gentle Souls Sandals<br /> J Crew scarf </p>
