I might have to copy it sometime soon. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-week-6-in-the-spur-of-the-moment#post-1160811 Sat, 08 Feb 2014 01:59:06 +0000 MuseumGal 1160811@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are fab - so modern and classic with just a bit of edge. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-week-6-in-the-spur-of-the-moment#post-1160810 Sat, 08 Feb 2014 01:57:23 +0000 Susie 1160810@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ingunn, you are a master at outfit creation! You look wonderful....the third one is my very favorite. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-week-6-in-the-spur-of-the-moment#post-1160804 Sat, 08 Feb 2014 01:45:46 +0000 Kiwibird 1160804@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I too love every one of these "impulse" outfits&nbsp;Ingunn - you are an inspiration for this newbie to closet shopping!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-week-6-in-the-spur-of-the-moment#post-1160796 Sat, 08 Feb 2014 01:28:59 +0000 nancylee 1160796@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look lovely in all of these looks, Ingunn (and thanks for the BR sweater shoutout). &nbsp;I wore my yellow one today, and I have to agree that it's the&nbsp;perfect classic sweater.&nbsp;</p> <p>I love all of these looks, but I have to agree with Suz. &nbsp;Those big cuffs in #3 really caught my eye. &nbsp;Fun and chic! &nbsp;I love how you've experimented without planning (as per Angie's instructions). &nbsp;My challenge would be the exact opposite! &nbsp;I tend to just grab and go, or rely on the same old looks. I always admire you, Suz, and others who do such careful analysis of their wardrobes before making a purchase. &nbsp;I guess we can all learn from each other. :)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-week-6-in-the-spur-of-the-moment#post-1160783 Sat, 08 Feb 2014 01:18:19 +0000 NDMom 1160783@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wonderful outfits....I especially love your Chelsea boots! Love your style! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-week-6-in-the-spur-of-the-moment#post-1160777 Sat, 08 Feb 2014 01:09:26 +0000 Joyce B 1160777@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfits! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-week-6-in-the-spur-of-the-moment#post-1160769 Sat, 08 Feb 2014 01:00:36 +0000 Anonymous 1160769@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love every one of these -- Ingunn you are a star! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-week-6-in-the-spur-of-the-moment#post-1160766 Sat, 08 Feb 2014 00:58:25 +0000 catgirl 1160766@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The theme I see is strong simple clean looks. Not a lot of fuss or fluff, and everything is to Angie's fluid tailored prescription. You are a marvel! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-week-6-in-the-spur-of-the-moment#post-1160729 Sat, 08 Feb 2014 00:19:13 +0000 E 1160729@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you're hitting simple, playful modern classic notes beautifully! My favourite is 2, just because I love the sleeveless&nbsp;dress over long sleeved shirt look, and polka dots, but they're all working for you. #4 seems less playful but it is nice &amp; simple. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-week-6-in-the-spur-of-the-moment#post-1160719 Sat, 08 Feb 2014 00:04:54 +0000 Suz 1160719@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ingunn, these are fantastic outfits, every single one of them. I love them all, but #3 just makes me want to run for the fuchsia crash helmet. That is SO GREAT!! The cuffs of the jeans echo your top and sweater and the whole outfit exudes relaxed elegance. Brava!!&nbsp;</p> <p>Hard to pick a favourite among the others, but if I had to I'd vote for 2 and 4. You're looking terrific!!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-week-6-in-the-spur-of-the-moment#post-1160710 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 23:53:44 +0000 Caro in Oz 1160710@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love #3 it looks so modern.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-week-6-in-the-spur-of-the-moment#post-1160685 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 23:30:10 +0000 Ingunn 1160685@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie challenged me recently&nbsp;to not think too much and analyze everything to pieces when adding to my wardrobe next season. I'm not adding much yet, but I'm practicing by shopping my closet and getting dressed without giving it too much thought before it actually happens. A good advice and fun challenge, Angie!</p> <p>This week I've been to the office three days, and had two days at home. I was a bit surprised by how much I loved wearing a couple of orphaned items. I've been practicing yoga a lot lately, and also done a lot of weight training and cardio, shed a couple of pounds, too. The result is that a dress and a pair of Levis that had become too tight around hips/waist &nbsp;now fits again! I'm so happy about that, because I really like those pieces.</p> <p>#1: The navy blazer makes my patterned silk tunic more wearable. Paired with old Levi's 510 jeans that fit again, and brown booties and belt. (Office)</p> <p>#2: The black Boss sheath I bought a year ago also fits again, thankfully. I tried a mix of neutrals with a white tee layered under and a silk/cashmere polka dot scarf in grey and black. Patterned tights and black pointy toe pumps. (Office)</p> <p>#3: I recently thrifted a pair of straight leg dark jeans from Tiger of Sweden. They are a tad roomier than my other jeans, and longer, too, and&nbsp;the most comfortable pair I have.&nbsp;I liked the hem&nbsp;folded&nbsp;like this with blue wedges, a very old&nbsp;grey silk shirt and the cashmere hoodie. Simple luxury. (Home office)</p> <p>#4: A simple outfit based on a black BR v-neck in wool ( a true workhorse, Nancylee!), a pair of black jeggings/skinnies from COS&nbsp;and the thrifted pinstripe grey blazer. I also wore my Brouged Chelsea boots for the first time after Christmas. Dainty jewelry only&nbsp;&nbsp;- two tiny chains around my neck. (Office)</p> <p>#5: I felt a strong urge to wear wide legged pants today, so I pulled out the bootleg trousers in navy and paired them with a striped merino sweater. Black belt and blue wedges completed the look.&nbsp;My daughter said I looked "70-ish in a good way". That is good in my book! (Home office)</p> <p>All outfits are put together on impulse, and I felt good in all of them. Most of the pieces haven't seen daylight for a while, and I liked to get them out of hibernation. My outerwear this week was one day with the red coat, the rest of the week we've had terrible weather with sleet and snow, so parka is the only option. Today I even wore rubber boots.</p> <p>I wonder if it is a pattern or consistency here. I can't really tell - can you? All and any comments are most appreciated. Thanks for reading/looking! </p>
