Saysfit thanks for the tips on Ted Baker. This top reminds me of some lemon-motif things Goldenpig posted last summer that piqued my interest; I think they were Kate Spade. Now that I'm paying more attention to Ted Baker I'll keep an eye out for other things. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wib-at-snowy-boston-meet-up#post-1766836 Mon, 09 Jan 2017 11:13:06 +0000 Staysfit 1766836@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great adventure! I love the Citrus bloom top, I have it's twin in the midi sheath dress form! They also make a purse, and a scarf. I purchased the scarf on sale and tied it around my straw hat this summer. It added some subtle color and a feminine touch. I'm glad to hear you all had such a great time and I'm sorry I couldn't make the treck because of my work situation, but it sounds like the weather might have made it tricky. We had around 4 inches of snow here which is minimal. It was a slow steady fall without squalls, whiteouts or ice on the roads. It looked like a sunny snow globe! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wib-at-snowy-boston-meet-up#post-1766833 Mon, 09 Jan 2017 10:39:00 +0000 Style Fan 1766833@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great tops Chris.&nbsp; I have had good luck at Ann Taylor lately.&nbsp; It sounds like it was a great time.&nbsp; Navy is a great colour for you.<br />I love Boston.&nbsp; I was there once many years ago.&nbsp; I really want to go back. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wib-at-snowy-boston-meet-up#post-1766790 Mon, 09 Jan 2017 03:31:59 +0000 Ledonna N. 1766790@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Glad you made it there and back safely.

Love both those tops for you. Can't wait to see them in some outfits.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wib-at-snowy-boston-meet-up#post-1766718 Sun, 08 Jan 2017 23:03:25 +0000 Diana 1766718@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm so glad that one of us got that ted baker top! It didn't work for me at all, I should know by now that his stuff rarely fits me. Maybe I need the scarf or bag in that print though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wib-at-snowy-boston-meet-up#post-1766709 Sun, 08 Jan 2017 22:47:50 +0000 Angie 1766709@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>GREAT. What a fun day. Wish I could have been there too. (I LOVE Boston - but don't like the cold, which is why we don't live there).&nbsp;I hope we see your outfit again, Chris (I want a better view of your blue coat!)</p> <p>You look splendid in navy, and I'm happy to see it become more popular in your wardrobe. The pretty floral top makes me long for Spring....</p> <p>Glad your Clarks are keeping your feet happy, and that you managed the commute back home in the tricky weather. Much love to you, sweet lady. Hope to meet you one day.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wib-at-snowy-boston-meet-up#post-1766668 Sun, 08 Jan 2017 20:59:19 +0000 Barbara Diane 1766668@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What firecracker said.<br />It's sounds like a nice meet-up. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wib-at-snowy-boston-meet-up#post-1766638 Sun, 08 Jan 2017 20:08:26 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1766638@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those are great tops you found. I like the shape of the navy top--a basic with a nice fit should be a workhorse. The Ted Baker floral is so pretty, too--something to look forward to wearing come Spring! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wib-at-snowy-boston-meet-up#post-1766561 Sun, 08 Jan 2017 17:27:09 +0000 Chris987 1766561@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I&nbsp;had a fabulous time at my first-ever meet up. It was so great to meet everyone and to have new&nbsp;friends to shop with! </p> <p>I&nbsp;guess I post about Maine a lot in my postings because a few of the others&nbsp;thought I lived there.:-) I actually live in Massachusetts and have a&nbsp;summer home in Maine that I don’t visit nearly enough. </p> <p>I&nbsp;love any excuse to go into Boston. We were in the lovely older section called&nbsp;Back Bay, and it was extra pretty in the snow. I travelled in and out of the&nbsp;city with some highway driving and some public transportation. I did a very&nbsp;similar commute when I worked in Cambridge for a few years. It was very&nbsp;strange to see the Alewife T station at 8am on a Saturday when it was almost completely empty.&nbsp;My drive home took<br /> twice as long as the drive in, and was&nbsp;tense since it was snowing and the&nbsp;roads were snow covered. However it was not all that slippery and quite&nbsp;manageable. I’ve been in far worse many times. &nbsp;My trusty all -wheel drive Subaru sedan was a&nbsp;champ! </p> <p>Now to the important stuff </p> <p><b>WIW:&nbsp;</b>my black Clark leather sneakers, which I’m wearing a lot since I developed&nbsp;plantar fasciitis in Lndon recently. They are a little casual but the PF is a lot better and they were fine for just a few inches of snow. If we had&nbsp;stayed into the evening I probably would have had wet feet. Blue wool overcoat&nbsp;and long/fluffy blue/gold scarf, cream wool hat, jeans, black tneck, black faux&nbsp;leather jacket. Truffle bag. &nbsp;The group&nbsp;photo is here: </p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/snowy-boston-meet-up-january-7-2017">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....ary-7-2017</a></p> <p><b>WIB</b>: (see finds for both) I&nbsp;got a really pretty Ted Baker top at Nordstrom Rack We were&nbsp;all looking at this top, and I found after the fact that Diana posted a few&nbsp;months ago about a skirt in the same pattern that she was eyeing &nbsp; &nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-colorful-maximal-wtall-boots">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....tall-boots</a>. The pattern is called citrus bloom. </p> <p> I also got a navy top at Ann Taylor. The fit on this was really nice and I'm&nbsp; liking navy these days. </p> <p>I need to&nbsp;do some outfit creation with them and they are most likely spring items. </p> <p>I had&nbsp;never been in a Club Monaco before and really loved the colors, styles, and&nbsp;fabrics. I tried on a few things that didn’t quite fit but this is a brand I&nbsp;will definitely look at again and there is a store in a mall I shop at frequently. </p> <p>I also looked carefully at the underlayer&nbsp;items at Uniqlo (the ones Angie mentioned in a blog posting in&nbsp;mid-December <a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/2016/12/13/my-favourite-thermal-underwear/">http://youlookfab.com/2016/12/.....underwear/</a><br /> ) and will definitely look into buying some when I’m in the market for some&nbsp;replacements. </p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
