It has just the right amount of structure. I love it with the draped top, and your pearls are divine. Now I want those, too.&nbsp;</p> <p>I only have girls, and they are not very much in favor of zombies. We have seen quite&nbsp;a few classics together, though, like the Godfather trilogy for example. But DS is probably a bit too young for those, too? Another favorite is Forrest Gump. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-with-thanks-to-lyn-d#post-1347665 Fri, 05 Sep 2014 07:11:27 +0000 Caro in Oz 1347665@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YLF Deborah &amp; so nice of Lyn to find it for you. <br />I have the Muppet's Most Wanted on my list too it looks like fun. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-with-thanks-to-lyn-d#post-1347664 Fri, 05 Sep 2014 07:09:56 +0000 Lucy 1347664@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is a gorgeous jacket, and just perfect on you! I love it.&nbsp;</p> <p>Last time we had movie night, we watched The Lion THe Witch and the Wardrobe, which we all enjoyed. Also some of the Percy Jackson movies are PG. We are strict on the PG as our son is only nine, but gee, a lot of movies aimed at boys are getting rated M atm, which is a shame.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-with-thanks-to-lyn-d#post-1347659 Fri, 05 Sep 2014 06:17:22 +0000 Deborah 1347659@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lantana, we haven't seen that one yet, but it looks interesting:). </p> <p>Missey thanks for the links, that's brilliant.</p> <p>We are downloading Muppets Most Wanted;). I wanted to watch Noah with Russell Crowe so might download and watch with DH after M11 has gone to bed lol.

I can well imagine it has been a work horse. And your black jeans gave me an ah ha moment. That's something I can do with tween seasons.<br /> I am favouriting this thread due to the movie recommendations. We have a bakers dozen of grandchildren and now they're heading for their teens I need to keep abreast of what is appropriate and enjoyable for them.<br /> Bridge to Terabithia is one that you should preview first but it does raise issues of imagination, friendship and loss that you might want to explore with your boy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-with-thanks-to-lyn-d#post-1347655 Fri, 05 Sep 2014 05:42:44 +0000 Deborah 1347655@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for your lovely comments ladies. And thank you for the fab movie recommendations. I am about to goole and preview. Thanks so much:)</p> <p>Lyn it kept crossing my mind that I hadn't reported back on the Coatigan. Wearing out today for a coffee and meeting, I was complimented on it and asked where I got it!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-with-thanks-to-lyn-d#post-1347646 Fri, 05 Sep 2014 04:59:53 +0000 Lyn D. 1347646@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Blushing :)<br />I am so glad that this has been working for you Deborah- I wasn't sure if it had worked out or not- but see now that it looks really, really FAB!<br />And, I have found the same thing as you with the navy cardigan that fell into my arms when I bought yours- it has been worn&nbsp;<b></b>such a lot for an un-planned purchase :)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-with-thanks-to-lyn-d#post-1347643 Fri, 05 Sep 2014 04:53:20 +0000 carolbee 1347643@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit Deborah.

You all need to fly over for a Aus meet up and meet her </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-with-thanks-to-lyn-d#post-1347579 Fri, 05 Sep 2014 02:49:24 +0000 bj1111 1347579@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>lovely lovely coat and lovely lovely Lyn D </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-with-thanks-to-lyn-d#post-1347577 Fri, 05 Sep 2014 02:48:17 +0000 Elizabeth P 1347577@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wonderful coatigan Deborah, it's perfect for you.

So wonderful of LynD to find you one! No clue about movies.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-with-thanks-to-lyn-d#post-1347567 Fri, 05 Sep 2014 02:39:16 +0000 Jaime 1347567@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love that jacket on you Deborah! And the white tunic with and without it.&nbsp;How wonderful of Lyn to send&nbsp;it! Movie wise, have you seen Hugo? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-with-thanks-to-lyn-d#post-1347560 Fri, 05 Sep 2014 02:32:44 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1347560@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah, Zombieland is waaaaaay too explicit for 11. I've seen it and loved it (I have a strange affection for all things zombie) but I don't think DS watched it until he was 16 or so. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-with-thanks-to-lyn-d#post-1347554 Fri, 05 Sep 2014 02:26:20 +0000 Deborah 1347554@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Shannon. Top is from an Aussie store called "Katies". Speaking of Metalicus, I have worn my new black drape top twice already this week;). </p> <p>Movie wise DS wants to watch Camel Spiders or Zombieland...I'm laughing out loud, because there is no way haha. Good on him for trying :). We often do movie night on Fridays and we are running out of ideas. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-with-thanks-to-lyn-d#post-1347549 Fri, 05 Sep 2014 02:21:51 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1347549@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That jacket is incredible - looks fantastic Deb and how sweet of Lyn. Love that white top as well - is that a Metalicus piece? Gorgeous.</p> <p>Gosh my DS is 19 now so I have no idea what to choose for an 11 year old anymore. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-with-thanks-to-lyn-d#post-1347543 Fri, 05 Sep 2014 02:07:31 +0000 Deborah 1347543@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A little while back Lyn D very kindly bought me a Coatigan that I couldn't get in my size locally. I had originally walked away from it but returned after thinking about it for a few days having realised that it could actually be a great addition to my wardrobe. Sadly, they had sold out:(</p> <p>And then Lyn came to the rescue (perhaps shopping for others is one of Lyn's super powers?) and managed to get the medium for me in Melbourne. </p> <p>Well I have felt poorly that I haven't actually posted it. I have been wearing it quite a bit and my favourite combination is with this white draped top. </p> <p>Worn today over my black jeans and ankle boots with white drape top. This has been a bit of a go to outfit on my days off. It's quite warm and extremely comfortable and has a faux leather trim. </p> <p>Lyn, thank you so much. I wanted you to know how much i appreciated it and how much I am enjoying wearing it.</p> <p>Critiques, styling suggestions etc, all welcome.</p> <p>Thank you for looking<br /> xxxDeborah</p> <p>p.s. Movie night at my house tonight! You are all welcome of course;). Any recommendations for a family friendly movie? DS is 11, and we are a little strict;) </p>
