The 10 days must feel like forever when you are looking so forward to the big event. Yes Friday the 13th is lucky for all ( except members of the Knights Templar of course). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-working-my-way-to-spring-with-some-bare-ankles#post-1903995 Tue, 03 Apr 2018 22:57:00 +0000 Mainelady 1903995@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Aurore! I liked the aqua with the black and white polka dots. It was a fun pairing for the classroom. Next I think I will try those with a pair of black wide legged crops.</p> <p>Torontogirl...the queen of cold weather chic! Wow! I am truly flattered. Thank you.</p> <p>Thank you, Bijou. The tweed skirt with the asymmetrical hem is a great piece! I love everything about it!</p> <p>Efbgen, thank you for the kind compliments! It makes me smile to think that my happiness factors make others happy, too. Sorry about the snow....may melting temps and warm winds take over soon. Thanks for remembering about my twin time. We are on the 10 day countdown! I will be reuniting with my other and better half on Friday the 13th....a very good luck day for us! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-working-my-way-to-spring-with-some-bare-ankles#post-1903786 Tue, 03 Apr 2018 12:09:02 +0000 Anonymous 1903786@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh Mainelady!<br /> First hope you had a wonderful twin time if it has come and gone.<br /> Next- thank you for being that wonderful ray of sunshine in a rather long and dreary winter. Your outfits are amazing- something for every occasion, stylish, colorful and classy. I can’t pick a fav because I like them all.<br /> And between you and Katerina - with the bracelets and brooches- both of you keep my spirits afloat as yet more snow is predicted<br /> Thanks </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-working-my-way-to-spring-with-some-bare-ankles#post-1903778 Tue, 03 Apr 2018 11:48:18 +0000 Bijou 1903778@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>After an endless summer, I am loving these outfits. I love #1, it is beautiful on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-working-my-way-to-spring-with-some-bare-ankles#post-1903777 Tue, 03 Apr 2018 11:24:57 +0000 Helena 1903777@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wonderful looks, as always. Love the springier looks,but truly, you are the queen of cold weather chic. Always an inspiration to this northern lady!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-working-my-way-to-spring-with-some-bare-ankles#post-1903760 Tue, 03 Apr 2018 09:47:15 +0000 Aurore 1903760@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Even before I read the text or enlarged the photos, my eye was drawn to outfit #6. I LOVE how the aqua cardigan and dotted black and white blouse look together. It does look spring-y to me, and very refreshing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-working-my-way-to-spring-with-some-bare-ankles#post-1903754 Tue, 03 Apr 2018 09:41:29 +0000 Mainelady 1903754@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are all so kind. It is likely that I will continue to struggle for a few more weeks, walking the line between seasons. I find I am happier when I can wear some brighter colors and lighter layers.</p> <p>Thank you Katerina. The cardi is aqua and was a cheery color on a gray day.</p> <p>Joy, I agree. My black outfit is not springy looking at all. I really like the skirt and will wear it with lighter tops for a while longer. I may need to get some nude hosiery. I haven’t worn any in years, but it would help me stay a bit warmer than bare legs would.</p> <p>Jussie, you are right! I didn’t notice how heavy the black pants looked until I saw the picture. The black pants say winter....a long, long winter.</p> <p>Thank you RobinF, Angie, Cardiff Girl, Shevia and Cee. You all lift me up with your support!</p> <p>Kkards..yay for wearing your sneakers and cropped jeans, even if only for a day. Better days are ahead.....I just wonder how long we have to wait for them?</p> <p>Carol, thank you. I also have high arches. I have had luck with mules and slides that have a lot of coverage on the top and sides of my foot. I also do better with flats, or lower heels.</p> <p>Ledonna, thank you. Yes, I need to add more color when I wear black....or I need to stay clear of black unless wearing crops or a skirt....a little skin showing will help lighten the look. The pin is a fly. It belonged to my grandmother and even though I don’t care for insects, I love this one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-working-my-way-to-spring-with-some-bare-ankles#post-1903749 Tue, 03 Apr 2018 09:05:51 +0000 Cee 1903749@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful, ML </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-working-my-way-to-spring-with-some-bare-ankles#post-1903725 Tue, 03 Apr 2018 07:12:34 +0000 Ledonna N. 1903725@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the same as Angie. 2 to me I really love is my favorite. I see all as a transitional outfits as that is my idea of spring is that you're transitioning to Summer and I see what you did with your layers great job. The only thing I would probably help pop is the black with maybe a bit of color I love your going to bee pin or fly pin? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-working-my-way-to-spring-with-some-bare-ankles#post-1903712 Tue, 03 Apr 2018 04:27:26 +0000 Jaime 1903712@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Angie said exactly.

But it’s really pretty. I also love the aqua cardi outfit, and it’s a bit spring-y<br /> The first outfit is great but straight black probability didn’t give you that springtime vibe you were hoping for! I feel like the last outfit may benefit from a change of shoe or pant? The black might just be a little too heavy for the other colours.<br /> Thanks for sharing </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-working-my-way-to-spring-with-some-bare-ankles#post-1903529 Mon, 02 Apr 2018 13:19:44 +0000 Anonymous 1903529@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Although maybe not springy looking, my favorite is your black skirt and booties. Your jewelry adds sparkle.<br /> It really isn't warm enough here to go out yet with bare ankles but I wear nude knee highs or even full nude stockings for warmth and to push the season. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-working-my-way-to-spring-with-some-bare-ankles#post-1903528 Mon, 02 Apr 2018 13:13:20 +0000 Katerina 1903528@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mainelady, the black skirt outfit is just STUNNING! I am so glad you decided to get this skirt.</p> <p>I like the other outfits too. No 2 is beautiful and so you, the bracelets are super! I love the bee on the denim jacket in no 3 - so sweet and cool at the same time. Great outfit. I also like the colour of the cardi in no 4 on you very much - is it mint or aqua? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-working-my-way-to-spring-with-some-bare-ankles#post-1903502 Mon, 02 Apr 2018 11:52:59 +0000 RobinF 1903502@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The last two look the springiest to me, probably because of the brighter colors. I think these are all nice though. Love your black dress with the asymetrical hem. Basic with a twist. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-working-my-way-to-spring-with-some-bare-ankles#post-1903493 Mon, 02 Apr 2018 10:08:24 +0000 Mainelady 1903493@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Weather and temperatures are still bossing around my options, but I think I am making progress.<br /> Outfits last week:<br /> Black tweed skirt with booties<br /> Blue dress, tomato sweater and tan booties<br /> Happiness factors<br /> Denim with blue mules<br /> Happiness factors<br /> Black and blue with black mules (they don’t show)<br /> Jeans, t shirt, jacket and navy patten leather loafers</p> <p>I am not sure any of these outfits really hit the mark for spring. I liked the black skirt and the blue outfit with the denim jacket the best. The others need work. It is a good thing I am not a quitter.</p> <p>I welcome any observations and suggestions you care to share. You all are helping me dress better, one suggestion at a time! </p>
