And WELL DONE finding cardis that work. You look sensational in them.  rute on "WIW...major catch up" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwmajor-catch-up#post-1454651 Wed, 11 Mar 2015 08:43:29 +0000 rute 1454651@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Great style! You are gorgeous. Love the hair oh.. And by the way.. Love your kitchen Neel on "WIW...major catch up" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwmajor-catch-up#post-1454642 Wed, 11 Mar 2015 07:08:31 +0000 Neel 1454642@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You couldn't look drab if you tried! I have to agree with everyone who said you have a cool chic style and your hair just complements your outfits even before the cut and color. Obviously the cut and color make it all even better. 8 and 12 are my absolute favorites. You look lovely in blues Caro in Oz on "WIW...major catch up" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwmajor-catch-up#post-1454511 Wed, 11 Mar 2015 01:00:47 +0000 Caro in Oz 1454511@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Agreeing with the others you have a wonderful relaxed style.

I'm always glad to see you post! As a fellow daily jeans/leggings-wearer, our wardrobes do sometimes feel limited compared to some of the ladies here, but there is definitely inspiration to be found when you see such a great set of looks, with nice cohesion in terms of colors and silhouettes. Firecracker (Sharan) on "WIW...major catch up" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwmajor-catch-up#post-1454391 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 21:45:08 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1454391@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Jackie, you look so gorgeous and stylish! I swear, you could grab any pieces out of your wardrobe, put them on and look like a million bucks. You just have such a great presence as well as sense of style. I love your simple tomboy look in 15--it's the kind of look I'd love to achieve if I could--and your new cardis in 17 and 18 are fantastic! (Did you mean that you sized up rather than down?) Keep the posts coming, whenever you feel like gracing us with them! Elizabeth P on "WIW...major catch up" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwmajor-catch-up#post-1454363 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 21:05:35 +0000 Elizabeth P 1454363@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ So good to see an outfit post from you! You may not feel like these are "exciting". But I think that is because you have a cohesive style that is easy for you. Which is something that many of us aspire to. And I like the cardis on you. I also gave them up for a while, but have rediscovered them with the longer styles.

I find these sorts of outfits super inspiring. Please keep posting, as these are the kinds of outfits that work best for me, and I love seeing the little touches and interpretations you put into them that never occur to me! Suz on "WIW...major catch up" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwmajor-catch-up#post-1454028 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 12:42:42 +0000 Suz 1454028@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ What Angie said. And what Aida said. You MUST post these outfits because they are super inspiring to me, who lives such a similar lifestyle. And you wear your jeans outfits so incredibly well. I love you in every one of these! My absolute faves (if I must pick) would be: 1,3, 4, 7, 11, 12, 15, 16, 17 --- ah, are you getting the picture that I love them all?  :)  jackiec on "WIW...major catch up" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwmajor-catch-up#post-1453900 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 03:41:46 +0000 jackiec 1453900@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ summer - thanks! That Zella jacket has been a workhorse for me :) Sara L - thanks - I felt a little spring-like in the softer colours. kellygirl - thanks for the big compliment from someone who I admire as one of the most stylish MOTGs :) abc - aw, much appreciated lisap - I initially tried on the blue cardi in store thinking it was on sale, brought it to the till to find out it was full price. Went home and ordered it on sale online. Sigh. Gap. Why do you do this?.... I hear you on length etc, but I think it will work well for spring/summer. Plus I have some long puffers for winter (don't we all?!) that cover nicely. Aida - yes - those cardis will do whooshie quite well undone! I covet your compliments and advice - thank you so much :) DianeG - I appreciate your enthusiasm - thank you! Laurie - Shake it off is right! Now I have that in my head too.... RuthM - thanks for noticing my hair ;) frannieb - thank you! Yes, I love my jeans. I'm looking forward to seeing the new pair that you've found and love too :) isabel - thank you!! Karie - I'm sure Cosmo Edward would love the plethora of treats I have available these days...constantly in training mode ;) Deborah - Oh you would and do rock a good cardi. I think these were a good buy at Gap on sale. Too bad we don't have Metallicus.... chouette22 - much appreciated :) thanks, rachylou! Aliona - "strong look and sense of self" Wow, that made my day! Thanks! thanks, AM. We are lucky in that it's feeling like spring around here. I'd be in sweats if it were icky out too. Ummlila - thank you! Angie - thanks ;). So far I like the cardis. This is my last stab at them. I like that I can button one or two and feel "all tacked down." I think I'll get good use out of them this spring/summer. I must say that silly fanny pack is making a bit of a mess of my outfits. I strap it on, and my tops start to hike up, my bottoms ride down, etc. What a site. But we laugh as we go :)...and trip. Shevia - thanks for the highlights! Indeed I do love scarves :) Thanks for the kind comments, everyone. Certainly does help to boost the confidence :) Jaime on "WIW...major catch up" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwmajor-catch-up#post-1453875 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 02:36:53 +0000 Jaime 1453875@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Every one of your outfits is fab, so I am just going to mention the highlight impressions; you are queen of scarves, I love the cognac booties on you, you wear all jeans incredibly well and you look extremely put together even when casual. Post more! Angie on "WIW...major catch up" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwmajor-catch-up#post-1453855 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 01:54:14 +0000 Angie 1453855@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Please do not feel intimidated, Jackie. Your killer casual MOTG jeans style is inspirational. LOVE it when you post. You are Casual Chic. Fanny Pack is fab dog walking style.  I love you in both really soft palettes like #1 and #8, and the dark versions in #2 and #18. You ROCK those long cardigans - WOW - and the sock bookending in #17 is fabulous. Killer renditions.  Glad you found long cardiganss that worked.  UmmLila (Lisa) on "WIW...major catch up" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwmajor-catch-up#post-1453854 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 01:51:12 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1453854@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Those cognac boots really up the style of outfits in darker colors. AM on "WIW...major catch up" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwmajor-catch-up#post-1453792 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 00:26:34 +0000 AM 1453792@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You do rock jeans... and that effortless, casual, chic thang! Black and ink look wonderful on you. #4 and #17 have great almost "color-block" details with sleeves; and sweater and socks. Really nice and interesting. #5 - the yellow, blue, and cognac. It looks so fresh and spring-like. Nice color combo. #11 - ripped jeans and black done really RIGHT!  #18 - black and charcoal with an ultra long line looks incredibly chic and modern. Well done. While I sit here in grubby sweats, I feel like I need to get back on the horse! I so need warmer weather and new life. But you seem to have managed beautifully from these images!

A perfect balance of style and practicality. I love them all; couldn't possibly choose a favorite. You have a very strong look and sense of self. Please do share more! rachylou on "WIW...major catch up" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwmajor-catch-up#post-1453772 Mon, 09 Mar 2015 23:57:33 +0000 rachylou 1453772@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Super cute. I'm really liking your light grey coat with the cognac boots and grey jeans. chouette22 on "WIW...major catch up" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwmajor-catch-up#post-1453766 Mon, 09 Mar 2015 23:41:33 +0000 chouette22 1453766@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I second Kellygirl and Lisap and Aida, you always look totally fab even though you may not feel it. Your feeling drab does not translate AT ALL. I always enjoy your WIWs very much! Deborah on "WIW...major catch up" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwmajor-catch-up#post-1453759 Mon, 09 Mar 2015 23:24:06 +0000 Deborah 1453759@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Your jeans style is just awesome.  Your long cardigans are killing me and I just know that I must have a couple for our winter. Karie on "WIW...major catch up" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwmajor-catch-up#post-1453755 Mon, 09 Mar 2015 23:20:37 +0000 Karie 1453755@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Wha - "drab and uninspired?" No way, girlfriend, you are super stylish! I love seeing your casual chic style. My favorites are #3, #15, and #17. Cosmo Edward's favorite scent is eau de peanut butter liver treats! Anonymous on "WIW...major catch up" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwmajor-catch-up#post-1453744 Mon, 09 Mar 2015 23:11:13 +0000 Anonymous 1453744@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Ha! Your intro did not do your photos justice at all, these are all great, each and every one, I would not presume to suggest any changes because they're all that good. You look very pretty in all of them but I especially like 1, for it's sweetness, and 11 and 16, for being the perfect execution of this type of look. frannieb on "WIW...major catch up" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwmajor-catch-up#post-1453735 Mon, 09 Mar 2015 22:53:35 +0000 frannieb 1453735@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Another who loves your style - You have mastered the casual chic and always look so wonderful. I aspire to look as wonderful as you do on my weekends.  Plus as mentioned above you rock jeans.   Ruth M on "WIW...major catch up" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwmajor-catch-up#post-1453684 Mon, 09 Mar 2015 20:40:18 +0000 Ruth M 1453684@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Jackie, you always look so effortlessly stylish to me.  I started to list my favourites as I clicked through this batch, but gave up because I was listing virtually all of them, lol!  You make all of your outfits look good. I like your new long-lean-cardigan-with-scarf look very much. You look great in your birthday celebration dress - and your new hair is fab. Laurie on "WIW...major catch up" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwmajor-catch-up#post-1453677 Mon, 09 Mar 2015 20:16:45 +0000 Laurie 1453677@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I second Kelly - you are one of our most stylish fabbers.  You have a very specific, very excellent casual style with the killer figure to pull it off. Shake it off (I have been listening to an excessive amount of TS the last few days with my son, sorry...but she's right!) and definitely keep these WIW's coming. And, your hair looks great. Anonymous on "WIW...major catch up" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwmajor-catch-up#post-1453674 Mon, 09 Mar 2015 20:09:49 +0000 Anonymous 1453674@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/  I opened #1 and immediately loved it to bits. I adore the grey palette and the design of your jeans plus the cognac booties. Other highlights for me are the fab jacket in 2, love the purple on you in 3, more cognac love in 5, fab simplicity in 10, cool slouch in 13, love the black and blue in 16 (wish black suited me) and finally love the long cardis at the end. You have a fabulous 'look' Jackie. YLF! Aida on "WIW...major catch up" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwmajor-catch-up#post-1453671 Mon, 09 Mar 2015 20:04:38 +0000 Aida 1453671@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Jackie I'm going to selfishly say that I must see more of your outfit posts, because A) they're perfect casual-wear inspiration, B) I need to work on that part of my own wardrobe so seeing your outfits is always helpful, and C) of course they're totally stylish, lady! I should also probably add D) that we get to see your fab denim collection in action. Totally adore #1, 15, 16, and 17. I like the loooong cardigans, particularly done up as tunics. I have one that I like to wear this way too; in warmer weather it's fun left open as a whooshy layer. Been wearing something similar to #10 on, like, every weekend this winter (my version is with a charcoal sweater, faded skinnies, and turquoise infinity scarf). Cozy and versatile for casual needs! You look like you're ready for any fun activity that pops up :) Anonymous on "WIW...major catch up" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwmajor-catch-up#post-1453645 Mon, 09 Mar 2015 19:41:27 +0000 Anonymous 1453645@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Jackie, if only I could wear jeans like you do ....sigh:)  I was looking at that long cardigan thingy in Gap too the other day, and was this close to buying the blue one, then put it back. I wasn't quite sure how I'd wear it- having images of it being too long under a coat etc and the bum bagging out in the back after sitting .  . I like how you've styled yours!    I hear you on feeling blah and uninspired and intimidated and everything else - lol. I haven't posted a pic in months - too many reasons not too, least of which is the time and effort it takes to clean off boots to wear in the house in front of the camera , get all fixed up, then snap 800 pictures of yourself hoping one of them looks decent.  Oh, ok, that's just me:)   Anyways - here's to spring weather!  And different clothes!! abc on "WIW...major catch up" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwmajor-catch-up#post-1453644 Mon, 09 Mar 2015 19:39:56 +0000 abc 1453644@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I wish I could pull off your drab and uninspired.  Really, that is just the winter doldrums talking.  Your style is super, I look forward to your posts for real life MOTG style.  No fair comparing yourself to anyone else - never productive so please stop but KEEP ON POSTING!! Pleeeeeeease :) kellygirl on "WIW...major catch up" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwmajor-catch-up#post-1453638 Mon, 09 Mar 2015 19:30:24 +0000 kellygirl 1453638@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You are one of the most naturally stylish people on the forum. Love your WIWs and am so happy that you are posting them. You look terrific in everything--how do  you do that?! Sara L. on "WIW...major catch up" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwmajor-catch-up#post-1453635 Mon, 09 Mar 2015 19:27:15 +0000 Sara L. 1453635@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You have great pieces so your outfits always look great (even if you aren't feeling it).  You look sleek and modern in all of these.  I think my favorite is #1.  I really like those jeans and the soft colors of the scarf. Summer on "WIW...major catch up" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwmajor-catch-up#post-1453600 Mon, 09 Mar 2015 18:45:00 +0000 Summer 1453600@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Hi, Jackie.  You look lovely in your casual, real- life outfits.  I see nothing drab or uninspiring here. Your long cardigans  are very elegant, especially with the scarves.  I think that formula is a winner for a casual life-style. I also like your little jacket (16).  That outfit is lovely on you.  Your hair looks great, too.
