You are all such warm and caring people and I truly appreciate it ;)</p> <p>And you know what? Cheery colours really do help today and a few people commented on how nice I looked in bright colours. I didn't feel cutting edge but I still felt stylish and well put together.</p> <p>And then I came home to find that Dusty Bottom has done really well today on his own and greeted me with furry little kisses. I think we're all going to be ok </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-trying-to-be-cheery#post-1262425 Tue, 27 May 2014 22:14:19 +0000 MsLuna 1262425@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look lovely, Shannon!

The house does indeed feel empty and lonely when a beloved pet dies.</p> <p>Your attempt to look cheery was a great success. Cobalt is gorgeous on you, and I love the floral shirt and white jacket. I have a similar white denim jacket and feel kind of uplifted every time I slip it on. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-trying-to-be-cheery#post-1261905 Tue, 27 May 2014 11:32:46 +0000 Anonymous 1261905@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks happy and bright. Good armour when dealing with sadness. Hope your day goes as well as you look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-trying-to-be-cheery#post-1261903 Tue, 27 May 2014 11:25:31 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1261903@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Still missing Gain like crazy and the house doesn't seem the same. So I made a conscious decision to dress in cheery colours to help me feel better.</p> <p>Today's outfit started with my cobalt blue pencil skirt. I added a multi coloured tank in an abstract pattern and then topped that with my white denim jacket, with scrunched sleeves. For footwear, I went with my comfy bone/silver sandal shoes and for my handbag, am debuting my new coral/watermelon coloured satchel. I actually bought this yesterday from the hospital gift shop - it was in the window and the colour just spoke to me. For non leather, the quality is quite excellent. It's a fun piece to add for the summer. For accessories, I chose my purple/clear specs and my silver/taupe wrap watch.</p> <p>It actually does help to dress in happy colours. There is nothing new or cutting edge in this outfit - does it still look current? What do you think? Does it all work together? As always, all comments/suggestions welcome.</p> <p>Jacket: Brody Jeans (thrifted)<br />Tank &amp; skirt: Cleo Petite<br />Shoes: Fugitive<br />Watch: Fossil </p>
