The length of your new white blazer is very flattering on you. You put together a great outfit with it and items you already had. </p> <p>I like the necklace in #3, and your new glasses look great on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wardrobe-additions-and-sandals#post-1909230 Mon, 16 Apr 2018 01:30:50 +0000 tanstaafl 1909230@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks all! Unfortunately the temperature has dropped back down to the 50s and 60s and looks to stay that way for a few weeks. But the dark tights will stay put away until next fall/winter. These in between temps are so frustrating when I just want it to be truly warm already. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wardrobe-additions-and-sandals#post-1908903 Sun, 15 Apr 2018 14:52:16 +0000 JAileen 1908903@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My favorite is 4. I like how the colors of the white jacket, scarf and top harmonize. I might have to copy you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wardrobe-additions-and-sandals#post-1908899 Sun, 15 Apr 2018 14:47:06 +0000 Angie 1908899@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The first thing that jumps off the page is how GREAT you look in Spring colours. #4 is my favourite. You need to wear more of that vibe.&nbsp;</p> <p>#2, 3 and 5 are my next faves - great proportions.&nbsp;</p> <p>New specs are an excellent shape. Well done.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wardrobe-additions-and-sandals#post-1908862 Sun, 15 Apr 2018 13:20:58 +0000 RobinF 1908862@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great professional outfits! My favorites are 2 and 4 but they are all really nice. I think the ankle pants length is good. Love the scarf in 4. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wardrobe-additions-and-sandals#post-1908817 Sun, 15 Apr 2018 11:42:53 +0000 krishnidoux 1908817@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, wow! You have so much style. My favorites are 1, 2 and 4.&nbsp;</p> <p>1 showcases how well you wear long scarves tied this way, and your great sense of color. But it's not just the colors here, it's also the textures, of both shirt and scarf, that just work.&nbsp;</p> <p>2 is very dynamic, it's a perfect balance of smart, pulled together and ready for action, fun, casual (my favorite). It seems that this one is a little departure from the rest, can't pinpoint what, but it works, it's really good. I think it might be the juxtaposition of print (fun, vibrant, less structured) and the shorter utility inspired jacket (tougher, practical, more structued) AND the fact that you have topped it off with slightly heeled delicate patent pumps, which is a nice contrast with the jacket.&nbsp;</p> <p>3 is springy, brightens a room, and just pure happy. Blue is a great color on you. You are a master at layering longer tops with shorter jackets, this looks serves you well.&nbsp;</p> <p>6 My favorite element from this are the shoes: unexpected and dainty, they contrast nicely with the skirt's relative austerity (it's a wonderful piece btw).&nbsp;</p> <p>Longer cardis: have you tried these with your hair up? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wardrobe-additions-and-sandals#post-1908804 Sun, 15 Apr 2018 10:12:32 +0000 Bijou 1908804@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love #2 as well, that burgundy colour is beautiful on you. It is great that you have coloured glass frames, they look wonderful. The new white blazer is lovely on you too, I love the freshness of the blue and white on you too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wardrobe-additions-and-sandals#post-1908800 Sun, 15 Apr 2018 10:02:13 +0000 Katerina 1908800@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tanstaafl, good to see you again! I have missed your lovely professional outfits. You have got some great wardrobe additions. Beautiful outfits with perfect fit as always. I really like no 2 - great chic combo and I love the pumps. Your new white jacket is perfect. You look fantastic in that outfit. I also love your new floral top, the long necklace and your sandals. Everything looks great. I admire how you are building a clever stylish wardrobe with items easily combined to create a large number of gorgeous outfits. You are an inspiration.</p> <p>Your new glasses suit you beautifully. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wardrobe-additions-and-sandals#post-1908737 Sun, 15 Apr 2018 04:03:31 +0000 Dianna 1908737@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tanstafl, you are not alone in keep shopping for HEWI's, I have done that more than once,&nbsp;with mixed results, sometimes&nbsp;it has worked really well, and other times one of them does not get worn as much, because they are competing for wears, and I tend to almost always favor one over the other. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wardrobe-additions-and-sandals#post-1908685 Sun, 15 Apr 2018 01:02:01 +0000 tanstaafl 1908685@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Efbgen - Burgundy is a new color for me this year, but teal, purple, and blue have been favorites for a long time. </p> <p>Brooklyn - I often feel like I lighten my color palette mostly by showing more of my ghostly pale skin. </p> <p>Dianna - I am already wondering if I should look for a second white blazer in a slightly different style. Is it normal to keep shopping for a HEWI even after finding it?</p> <p>Jussie - Thanks!</p> <p>Toban - I keep buying more burgundy, even the glasses are burgundy, with purple inside. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wardrobe-additions-and-sandals#post-1908261 Sat, 14 Apr 2018 08:23:14 +0000 Toban 1908261@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful glasses! All your outfits are fab. My favorites are 2, 4, and 5. You look smashing in burgundy and I like how you used a scarf with the white jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wardrobe-additions-and-sandals#post-1908259 Sat, 14 Apr 2018 08:16:17 +0000 jussie 1908259@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These outfits are all fantastic. Nice job!! That white jacket is lovely. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wardrobe-additions-and-sandals#post-1908225 Sat, 14 Apr 2018 04:31:57 +0000 Dianna 1908225@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfits, my favorite is number 4, followed by number 6.&nbsp; Your white jacket looks fabulous on you, it was worth waiting for the right one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wardrobe-additions-and-sandals#post-1908208 Sat, 14 Apr 2018 03:46:45 +0000 Brooklyn 1908208@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are great Tan. My favourites are 2, 4 and 6. It’s nice to see you lightening your palette for Spring. The pants look the right length to me. And of course I love the black and white floral.<br /> The new specs look great. Good colour. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wardrobe-additions-and-sandals#post-1908150 Sat, 14 Apr 2018 01:19:56 +0000 Anonymous 1908150@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How beautiful all those looks are on you.<br /> Apparently we have similar color loves. Those jackets/ toppers are fantastic. Great frames too.<br /> Well done </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wardrobe-additions-and-sandals#post-1908148 Sat, 14 Apr 2018 01:11:36 +0000 tanstaafl 1908148@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’ve picked up a few new pieces since doing the 30X30 challenge, so here are some recent WIWs incorporating them into my existing wardrobe. The warming weather for me means I get to put away my boots and start wearing my sandals. </p> <p>1: New purple portifino shirt from Express. The tights are new as well and are actually a pinstripe pattern, though they read as solid black in the picture. </p> <p>2: You’ve all seen most of this outfit before, but I found these ankle pants in the back of my closet that I had forgotten about. Is the length right based on Angie’s recent post about ppl for ankle pants?</p> <p>3: The only new piece here is the necklace. I had no long necklaces before, but found this one at NY&amp;C.</p> <p>4: I finally bought a white blazer, which has been a HEWI for me for a long time. The scarf and shirt have been in my closet for a long time but got very little wear. </p> <p>5: Dresses weren’t on my shopping list, but I have been buying a lot of burgundy this year. It at least fits into my goal of adding more pattern. The glasses and sandals are new as well. </p> <p>6: Patterned long sleeve tops were on my shopping list as well. I don’t generally like floral prints, but something about this one made me happy. </p> <p>7: My new specs. I usually wear contacts, but finally got around to updating my glasses prescription and frames. I’ll probably wear glasses more often now that they don’t give me a headache. </p> <p>Any and all feedback is greatly appreciated </p>
