After admiring your style for a few years now, it just occurred to me that you achieve variety via silhouette--something I struggle with immensely. I guess this is one advantage of a monochromatic wardrobe? I would love your analysis. Anyway, I am dying for #1 and 4. Superb! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-transitioning-to-spring#post-1849791 Sun, 01 Oct 2017 12:09:03 +0000 Jane 1849791@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your style! It is a delight when you post. The level of polish that you have is incredible. Fashion can be (far) more fun than football! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-transitioning-to-spring#post-1849778 Sun, 01 Oct 2017 08:15:36 +0000 Deborah 1849778@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Style Fan Thank you.

I think the Aussie girls are well overdue for a meet up!!</p> <p>Gryffin my Sister of Darkness:). I'm in such a happy place with my wardrobe. Fully embracing what I like and not worrying too much about trend, what others are wearing etc. black and neutrals ,<br /> Make me happy and accessories have started to play a more important role xxx</p> <p>Karie, thank you! #4 is a bit of a go to for the office when I don't feel inspired. love having those outfits that you know work and they don't require any thought :)</p> <p>Thanks Suz! The skirt doesn't seem to need ironing so yes it would travel well. I'm sorry I don't have a link. Cavaletti Gallery is studio in Central Victoria where the designer designs and makes everything in very small runs often dependent on how much of the fabric she has. I think there were only a couple of these skirts made, one of the reasons her designs are so special. She has become a friend, and it's heaven spending time with her. She's so passionate and I am learning so much. Her work is all Japanese inspired and her fabrics are amazing! </p> <p>Ellie and J'Aileen thank you! My friend actually custom made this one for me. I gave her my brief and she nailed it! </p> <p>Thanks o much Angie! </p> <p>Emily, I might try the sandals in 4 with the harems otherwise I have a very simple black sandal with a strap across the toes and an ankle strap. I think either of them will work depending on the top xx</p> <p>Mtnsofthemoon thank you xx</p> <p>Aquamarine thank you! </p> <p>Lyn D that's so nice! I am buying less and better and from small local makers so some of these items are very limited in terms of how many are produced. I think I have found my happy place xxx</p> <p>jlpp thank you x</p> <p>Dianna thank so much x</p> <p>Thanks Sal! It's easy when you find someone whose accessories just work for you :)</p> <p>Ooh Shevia, white shoes might take me out of my comfort zone:). </p> <p>Firecracker thank you!

Your dress in #1 is a work of art, but 4 and 5 are close seconds. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-transitioning-to-spring#post-1849739 Sun, 01 Oct 2017 03:11:16 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1849739@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, your style is through the roof fabulous, Deborah. I love the skirt outfit and the fact that you can switch the skirt around to wear it different ways. I'm really drawn to the look of it with those tights and mid-height booties. Your first outfit is a great choice for a speaking engagement--you look chic and authoritative. Your son's backdrop is so well done, too--artistic talent runs in the family! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-transitioning-to-spring#post-1849708 Sun, 01 Oct 2017 02:16:48 +0000 Jaime 1849708@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the first dress and could see it with white shoes (I am white shoe focused right now). The clutch by your friend is brilliant and perfect with that outfit. Love the skirt in number 3 and the black and white earrings too.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-transitioning-to-spring#post-1849699 Sun, 01 Oct 2017 01:19:00 +0000 Sal 1849699@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My personal favourites are 1 and 4, interesting how we all like different ones.</p> <p>Your accessorising is reaching new heights, really completing your looks brilliantly. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-transitioning-to-spring#post-1849675 Sat, 30 Sep 2017 23:15:43 +0000 Dianna 1849675@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fantastic outfits, all of them,&nbsp; My favorites are 1, 2, and 6, but you look amazing in all of them.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-transitioning-to-spring#post-1849668 Sat, 30 Sep 2017 22:29:05 +0000 Anonymous 1849668@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think 4 &amp; 6 in particular are super! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-transitioning-to-spring#post-1849663 Sat, 30 Sep 2017 21:53:42 +0000 Lyn D. 1849663@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Deborah, the reversible skirt is amazing!<br /> You are looking so fabulous and individual these days- reminds me of those few bloggers that wear clothes that look to be one-offs made especially for them only.<br /> I too had fun playing in my closet yesterday, trying on items unworn since the last warm weather. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-transitioning-to-spring#post-1849640 Sat, 30 Sep 2017 19:09:38 +0000 Aquamarine 1849640@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Holy smokes, you look fantastic!

Love #1. What a beautiful dress for a speaking engagement, bringing attention to your face. Love the ring in #2.&nbsp;</p> <p>The skirt in #3 is indeed cool!! Do you have a link for that? Very clever. I wonder if it travels well.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>LOVE </b>the accessories (shoes, bag, belt) in #4. Wow, your friend is talented, and that bag is a perfect complement to the outfit (and I'm sure to many others as well.) A patterned bag can be such a delight.&nbsp;</p> <p>Love the shawl and accessories in #5 as well.&nbsp;</p> <p>As for the last one, you could be a Cos model! :)</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-transitioning-to-spring#post-1849563 Sat, 30 Sep 2017 12:23:57 +0000 Karie 1849563@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look super gorgeous in all of these, it's so hard to pick a favorite.

But I'm a bit naughty and have a new outfit on its way but not sure it will arrive I time lol. Our town is dead today! We went for ice cream and a walk and then relaxed at home :). </p> <p>Mirjana, thanks so much. I totally get that the crotch look is not everyone's cup of tea. My husband still rolls his eyes lol. It's funny but they are a style that really resonates with me, it's almost an emotional connection, ...they feel like me... And I have a growing collection lol </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-transitioning-to-spring#post-1849537 Sat, 30 Sep 2017 07:52:31 +0000 Mirjana 1849537@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, how lovely outfits, all are really great, sophisticated and special. I love your style so much . My favourites are #1 and #4. I don't like harem pants but you are Queen of harem pants , you wear them excellent and I like them on you. You look so elegant and chic in all outfits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-transitioning-to-spring#post-1849536 Sat, 30 Sep 2017 07:38:49 +0000 Bijou 1849536@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All gorgeous! Looks #1, 2 and 5 really jumped out at me.<br />I love the elegance of #1, so perfect for a speaking engagement, if you don't want to wear your harem pants to the wedding, this is very special too. <br />The harem pants in #2 are lovely and I would love to see how you style them for a wedding. You ring and ear-rings really pop out and show your manicure and lipstick - such a great way to wear a touch of red.<br />#5 - I love the way you are wearing the shawl, it makes it look like a jacket.<br />I have avoided the football too. We went to our favourite sushi train (that usually you have to cue up to get in) - well today it was relatively quiet, so we got a seat very quickly.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-transitioning-to-spring#post-1849534 Sat, 30 Sep 2017 07:08:28 +0000 Deborah 1849534@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Spring has appeared, disappeared and then slowly reappeared which makes dressing a little frustrating and here are some of the outfits I have been wearing. Not safe to put anything away just yet:)</p> <p>1.<br /> Is a Lulu Manna dress that I wore for a speaking engagement. Accessories are 3D printed from Noosh Jewellery, both Aussie designers producing locally:) </p> <p>2.<br /> Silk Harem pants and jersey top from Sassind, another local label. This was the first outing of the harems and I’m seriously considering wearing them (with a dressier top) to a wedding. </p> <p>3.<br /> Same top as 2 with a skirt from Cavaletti Gallery. This skirt is so cool. Turn it inside out and it’s all black. Adjust and twist and you create a number of different looks. </p> <p>4.<br /> New pants for Spring and great office outfit for me. Shortlist Shop pants and top and the clutch is handmade by a friend. Sandals and belt are older. </p> <p>5.<br /> A Lulu Manna shawl worn over black slim pants and a collared white shirt. Another work outfit. </p> <p>6.<br /> This dress is 6 years old and has survived so many wardrobe edits :). Layered a thrifted COS shirt under it and wore new Tony Bianco flatform shoes. My son made the backdrop for me .. he’s a sweetie! </p> <p>Long weekend here for our football grand final which I’m managing to avoid by hanging out here for the afternoon!</p> <p>Thanks for looking and hope you are enjoying your weekend xxx </p>
