I enjoy giving credit where credit is due. I have learned a lot about style and fashion from others (here on YLF is one example). Both my mom and my sister can put a great look together in seconds. I learned bracelet stacking from my sister.<br /> I am keeping warm and limiting any time outside. The dangerous windchills can cause frostbite in 30 minutes to exposed, or not adequately protected skin. No matter how well layered, it is just uncomfortable to be outside for more than a few minutes. It is much easier to stay warm and toasty at home than it is at work. Hooray for the weeeknd! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-work-photo-challenge-day-3#post-1876009 Sat, 06 Jan 2018 17:43:57 +0000 Style Fan 1876009@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your jewellery choices and how you layer your bracelets.&nbsp; I am a big jewellery fan.&nbsp; Great colour combo for you.&nbsp; Hope you were able to keep warm. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-work-photo-challenge-day-3#post-1875990 Sat, 06 Jan 2018 16:39:04 +0000 SarahD8 1875990@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Blue is another great color on you! I love the mix of bracelets and mix of rings. Your comments about your mom’s and your twin’s style in the post above this one are so lovely - generous and self-aware. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-work-photo-challenge-day-3#post-1875903 Sat, 06 Jan 2018 11:49:41 +0000 Mainelady 1875903@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Sterling! I am an accessory fan.<br /> A lot of my inspiration comes from my mother and my twin. My mother had a minimal wardrobe, but she always looked so stylish. She said that a smile was the best accessory, but that she always added two more.<br /> My twin oozes style and to my eye, every outfit of hers is perfectly accessorized. I love to try on her looks and piggy back on her style. I do have to be careful though, because we live in very different worlds. She is a stylish city slicker and I am more of a casual country bumpkin. When I am with her I find myself making bolder style choices and being 100% comfortable wearing them. However, in my real life some of those choices just wouldn’t work as well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-work-photo-challenge-day-3#post-1875899 Sat, 06 Jan 2018 11:34:37 +0000 Anonymous 1875899@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You absolutely slayed it. &nbsp;But I want to give special mention to the jewelry (I seem to be noticing and appreciating accessories most during this challenge). I love the look of your bracelets together like that. &nbsp;And you are mixing metals and it looks so right!!! &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-work-photo-challenge-day-3#post-1875881 Sat, 06 Jan 2018 11:03:46 +0000 Mainelady 1875881@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, Joy. Staying warm with temps this cold takes some work. Today the windchills are forecast to be -30.</p> <p>Rachylou, I pulled 3 scarves for consideration. All looked good, but when I put on the black, blue and white it elevated the entire outfit. An extra bonus was that it is wool and therefore the warmest. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-work-photo-challenge-day-3#post-1875854 Sat, 06 Jan 2018 08:11:31 +0000 rachylou 1875854@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok. I’m stuck on 1. I think I have learned something about finishing cobalt with black and white... that is such a great combo! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-work-photo-challenge-day-3#post-1875839 Sat, 06 Jan 2018 05:22:30 +0000 Anonymous 1875839@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>More love for your outfit and also for your accessories. Stay warm. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-work-photo-challenge-day-3#post-1875763 Sat, 06 Jan 2018 00:59:13 +0000 Mainelady 1875763@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you Angie and Fashintern. It is hard to go wrong with cobalt, cream and black. It is a happy combination.</p> <p>Katerina, your charm bracelet sounds amazing! So many memories! Thinking o might have been a bit of inspiration makes me feel both honored and happy!<br /> Some happiness pieces are precious, or may be fragile, and might only come out to play under certain conditions. I find that I really like wearing happy memories. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-work-photo-challenge-day-3#post-1875752 Sat, 06 Jan 2018 00:41:33 +0000 Katerina 1875752@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You jewellery is amazing and every piece has an emotional value - it’s simply great (for luck of a better expression). I really like how you include happiness pieces into your every outfit. I have a charm bracelet collected from I was three years old - my mother bought the first charms and then I got charms from family, friends and some I bought myself on trips or at certain special occasions, good or bad, to remember or remind myself of something important. This is a happiness piece for me. Today, there are about 40 charms. I do not wear it so often because I am afraid to loose it or to destroy it. You inspired me to wear my happiness pieces! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-work-photo-challenge-day-3#post-1875740 Sat, 06 Jan 2018 00:29:52 +0000 Mainelady 1875740@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you tanstaafl, La Pedestrienne and Katerina. Today’s outfit was a change from what I had planned, but I was very happy with it. As soon as I put on the cobalt I thought, “this is a good color”. I don’t have much of it, but will keep it in mind when shopping. My family does have good taste!<br /> The earrings from my son had made for me are in his wedding colors. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-work-photo-challenge-day-3#post-1875734 Sat, 06 Jan 2018 00:22:53 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 1875734@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love cobalt blue anyway, and you are right that it works really well with your hair. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-work-photo-challenge-day-3#post-1875731 Sat, 06 Jan 2018 00:21:14 +0000 Angie 1875731@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>FABULOUS. Cobalt, black and cream are yummy together. And your jewellery looks great.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-work-photo-challenge-day-3#post-1875728 Sat, 06 Jan 2018 00:13:31 +0000 Katerina 1875728@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow! You look amazing! The blue is gorgeous on you and the combination with the scarf is delicious! Jeans - perfect. The earrings are fantastic. I love your style! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-work-photo-challenge-day-3#post-1875713 Fri, 05 Jan 2018 23:38:44 +0000 LaPed 1875713@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cobalt really is great on you. Love the sea glass pieces, esp the earrings. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-work-photo-challenge-day-3#post-1875712 Fri, 05 Jan 2018 23:34:43 +0000 tanstaafl 1875712@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cobalt, black, and white: one of my favorite color combinations. I love how all of your jewelry is from your family. They have wonderful taste. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-to-work-photo-challenge-day-3#post-1875708 Fri, 05 Jan 2018 23:23:10 +0000 Mainelady 1875708@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Our principal emailed all staff, saying that travel conditions across the island varied and we should use caution coming to work. She also said to consider today a Jeans Day.<br /> Next came a text message saying that the temp in my classroom was 62 degrees. I added a black jacket to combat the chill.</p> <p>1. Cobalt cable turtleneck sweater, scarf, jeans, Frye black booties, mixed metals and sea glass jewelry<br /> 2. Black Talbots jacket added<br /> 3. Storyteller bracelet from shopping with twin, sea glass toggle bracelet from daughter, gold quartz bracelet from husband<br /> 4. Sea glass ring from daughter, crucifix ring from grandmother, pinkie ring from husband<br /> 5. Sea glass earrings- a gift from my son to wear at his wedding.</p> <p>I like the cobalt blue with my hair and of course my happiness pieces are the jewelry pieces from loved ones. Jeans Day was a happy surprise.</p> <p>The jacket was a little snug with the turtleneck sweater under it. I usually wear a lighter weight top under the jacket. Today the hope for warmth trumped the fit. </p>
