But I love the drape of it too.</p> <p>And your image of Garden State cracked me up - I had forgotten about that movie! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wallpaper-midis#post-1932367 Thu, 28 Jun 2018 14:06:59 +0000 Sara L. 1932367@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are all great!&nbsp; #1 is so chic and classic.&nbsp; The colors of the knife pleat skirt are great and I like it with the short black top.&nbsp; The floral pieces look great with the taupe accents that you added.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wallpaper-midis#post-1932299 Thu, 28 Jun 2018 09:32:48 +0000 The Cat 1932299@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great in all these outfits. My favourite is #7--gorgeous and unique-looking. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wallpaper-midis#post-1931954 Tue, 26 Jun 2018 19:26:08 +0000 viva 1931954@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love that white CM top too -- it seems to have the PERFECT cut - length, dip of the V, sleeves ... I might have to try that.&nbsp;</p> <p>And the print outfit is really fun. Seeing it, and noting the wallpaper reference, immediately brought to mind this wonderful visual from the movie "Garden State."&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wallpaper-midis#post-1931950 Tue, 26 Jun 2018 18:56:48 +0000 Roxanna 1931950@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks @3style - looking at the knife pleat skirt outfit, I see what you mean. Maybe an untucked top and a chunky necklace for more balance next time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wallpaper-midis#post-1931940 Tue, 26 Jun 2018 17:24:40 +0000 3style 1931940@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think that the first and third outfits are very elegant. I like the knife pleat skirt on you, but I feel like the rest of the outfit doesn’t quite balance out the very strong vertical lines. I’d suggest a a shorter chunky necklace or short pearls as well as some almond toe shoes. I think that the outfit needs a touch of horizontal emphasis as well as more roundness to feel more complete. </p> <p>Also, purple really suits you and you would look fab in wearing it frequently. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wallpaper-midis#post-1931698 Mon, 25 Jun 2018 21:32:54 +0000 Roxanna 1931698@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all! @Gigi the shoes are suede and gold from the Clarks outlet and surprisingly comfortable. I love the way that top drapes too (though I must admit it draped better 7 pounds ago!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wallpaper-midis#post-1931652 Mon, 25 Jun 2018 19:19:26 +0000 Gigi 1931652@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are always so fashionable! The outfits are excellent all around, but I especially am enjoying no. 1. The fabric drapes so perfectly on you, and the proportions are spot on. Love the shoes too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wallpaper-midis#post-1931590 Mon, 25 Jun 2018 14:16:59 +0000 JAileen 1931590@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love all three outfits, but especially the thrifted one. The jacket looks perfect with it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wallpaper-midis#post-1931575 Mon, 25 Jun 2018 13:00:58 +0000 Amy Isabella 1931575@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ahhhhmazingly chic and elegant.

All FAB! Your VV outfit is incredibly gorgeous. I see no evidence of Mrs. Roper. The Queen of Too Much reigns with grace and beauty. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wallpaper-midis#post-1931460 Mon, 25 Jun 2018 01:39:12 +0000 Roxanna 1931460@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you so much ladies! Your comments gives me confidence to go full steam ahead with my new summer uniform and I'm glad you liked the final look as much as I did!</p> <p>@Jane - I find that if I buy knife pleat skirts in polyester blends, they stand up phenomenally well. I have two that I have never needed to iron! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wallpaper-midis#post-1931267 Sun, 24 Jun 2018 16:08:19 +0000 Angie 1931267@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE IT ALL.</p> <p>Keeping it simple with my feedback - KILLER all round.

Wonderful iterations of office wear. Perfect footwear to keep the look on trend. The 'William Morris' outfit is TDF! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wallpaper-midis#post-1931244 Sun, 24 Jun 2018 14:39:48 +0000 Mirjana 1931244@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All are gorgeous on you, but #7-9 is absolutely winner for me, terrific. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wallpaper-midis#post-1931223 Sun, 24 Jun 2018 13:26:49 +0000 Suz 1931223@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Roxanna</b>, you have never looked better. These are all killer gorgeous on you. WOW! You were made for midis and culottes! And do you ever wear CM well. That top in #1 is stunning on you. As is the knife pleat skirt. It's clearly a great place for you to shop.&nbsp;</p> <p>But the last outfit is incredible! Your mom is your fairy godmother for that one. The culotte "jumpsuit" works brilliantly with the taupe jacket and sandals. I do think the print is a bit William Morris-like -- I love it on you! Colours definitely work. &nbsp;The necklace adds a gorgeous bit of shine.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wallpaper-midis#post-1931209 Sun, 24 Jun 2018 12:28:40 +0000 Jane 1931209@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The colours of the trousers and top is amazing on you. It is super with the jacket.&nbsp;</p> <p>I'd be super grateful to know how the CM skirt pleats stand up to wearing? I have a knife pleat skirt from CM and I am worried about how it might cope with sitting on the pleats. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wallpaper-midis#post-1931208 Sun, 24 Jun 2018 12:23:47 +0000 kkards 1931208@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>that knife pleated skirt is TDF! and the "wallpaper" 2 piece dressing is fab..looks like a jumpsuit but without the bathroom issue, LOL. love it! and the black and white outfit is perfection.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wallpaper-midis#post-1931197 Sun, 24 Jun 2018 11:31:47 +0000 Staysfit 1931197@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What is hubs talking about?! You look great! The taupe jacket works! I definitely can see why someone thought of William Morris for the pattern though. It’s definitely something I might find in a fabric sample at the local Stickley factory. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wallpaper-midis#post-1931196 Sun, 24 Jun 2018 11:28:49 +0000 jussie 1931196@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All of these look fabulous. I like your sophisticated romantic look! The taupe works brilliantly with the green suit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wallpaper-midis#post-1931195 Sun, 24 Jun 2018 11:16:58 +0000 Roxanna 1931195@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You guys are so sweet. I'm glad you like them. I do think I've found my groove this summer with office dressing, in which my formula is often fitted or tailored top + midi skirt or culottes + tailored topper. I feel comfortable and elegant. It's the winter dressing, where I felt mostly on jeans, that I will have trouble with. </p> <p>I'm glad you all like the last look: hubs said I looked like Mrs. Roper and thought it might be too much, but really, I'm the Queen of Too Much so I just went with it. But I was keen to hear what you all thought. Glad you are not in hubby's camp </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wallpaper-midis#post-1931190 Sun, 24 Jun 2018 10:43:51 +0000 Anonymous 1931190@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG. &nbsp;You look fabulous. &nbsp;I LOVE number 1. &nbsp;But that skirt in number 2 is to die for!!!!!!! &nbsp;Those pants are GREAT. You styled them to perfection.&nbsp;</p> <p>See you don't need jeans to get dressed. &nbsp;You can just wear a fabulous skirt instead. &nbsp;I never thought I would say this, but that formula is perfect in so many ways. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wallpaper-midis#post-1931189 Sun, 24 Jun 2018 10:36:51 +0000 rachylou 1931189@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wallpaper-midis#post-1931153 Sun, 24 Jun 2018 06:31:56 +0000 Katerina 1931153@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The patterned silk set is fantastic, no wonder you love it.

Below are some recent WIWs:</p> <p>White cocoon blouse (Club Monaco) and black midi skirt (Joe Fresh)</p> <p>Knife pleat chiffon skirt (Club Monaco) and black blouse (Banana Republic)</p> <p>Some of you might remember that my mom rescued this silk blouse from a Value Village - well, it serendipitously cane with lined silk culottes! One Fabber referred to this print as 'William Morris' and though it's outside of my normal colour pallette, I love it. Do you think it works with the taupe complement? I wasn't sure what color to pair with it. </p> <p>All feedback and suggestions appreciated! </p>
