I like your tonal looks here that go with your hair. I especially like the second two for your signature mix of textures and shine. I think your outfits typically do harmonize beautifully with your hair color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-with-grey-hair#post-2196198 Tue, 18 May 2021 15:17:40 +0000 Anonymous 2196198@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you Bijou and Christina. I am going to lighter colors because of the hair. It’s hard to believe that not too long ago jewel tones dominated my wardrobe. Bijou, that meter threw me for a loop. Forum members were a huge help with ideas. You never know what you will be dealing with. I am very happy style is in a DYOT time and more aware of the environment. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-with-grey-hair#post-2196183 Tue, 18 May 2021 13:57:03 +0000 Christina F. 2196183@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, the paler tones are playing beautifully with your hair. So long!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-with-grey-hair#post-2196180 Tue, 18 May 2021 13:10:59 +0000 Bijou 2196180@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy you look fabulous in all of these. I am amazed at how well you have adapted to what must be a very tricky dressing issue dealing with the glucose meter. No one could tell from your gorgeous outfits, you are so inspirational.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-with-grey-hair#post-2196124 Tue, 18 May 2021 02:32:46 +0000 Anonymous 2196124@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all for your lovely comments.<br /> Yes, my hair has gotten long and I’m enjoying playing with it at this length. I especially like the oatmeal color but like a little darker contrast and of course, texture.<br /> April, thank you for asking about accommodating the glucose meter.<br /> I like non-clingy heavy fabrics best and most elastic pull on waists work well. That has meant giving up most jeans for other pants. Anything with those built in elastic panels in front will not work. Sometimes jeans with a mid or low rise will work, but not high rise waists which usually push or catch on the meter.<br /> Another strategy is to use scarves or a topper or both to hide the meter bump.<br /> Tops...I am finding that I need long tops that will not ride up and am replacing those that do not work. Anything cropped is not worth looking at.<br /> Fit is still a huge problem. If I go up in size to accommodate the meter and more width at the waist, everything else is off. Armholes are too low and pants are too loose for my straight hips. Jackets and shirts run too big in the bust if they are going to fall loose over the waist. In short, everything needs to be tried on. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-with-grey-hair#post-2196109 Tue, 18 May 2021 01:46:07 +0000 celia 2196109@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful outfits that go so well with your hair that is also beautiful . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-with-grey-hair#post-2196023 Mon, 17 May 2021 18:03:21 +0000 Helena 2196023@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You wear light columns so beautifully! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-with-grey-hair#post-2196020 Mon, 17 May 2021 17:58:18 +0000 RoseandJoan 2196020@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>There's such a lovely creamy warmth to your shade of grey Joy and you create such a striking column of colour with your neutral palette. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-with-grey-hair#post-2195909 Mon, 17 May 2021 12:18:10 +0000 April 2195909@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy, you seem to have figured out the issue of dressing around your pump just beautifully - do you mind if I ask what you've found to be the best accommodations? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-with-grey-hair#post-2195725 Sun, 16 May 2021 04:40:05 +0000 Bonnie 2195725@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just lovely! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-with-grey-hair#post-2195723 Sun, 16 May 2021 04:02:30 +0000 Sally 2195723@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have lovely hair and I am having knitwear envy.&nbsp; I like all of them but I always slightly favour trousers and would wear 1 and 2 without a doubt.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-with-grey-hair#post-2195720 Sun, 16 May 2021 03:29:15 +0000 slim cat 2195720@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great looks - wonderful play on shades of white!
