The tuck, the boots—so pretty in a tomboy way! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwobg-1#post-2151592 Tue, 03 Nov 2020 03:51:58 +0000 Jaime 2151592@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both are excellent!

I love the belted pants in #2, and think the Tneck from #1 would look great with it, too.

Plaid shirts are iconic trendy classics - hence they work with just about anything :)</p> <p>And #1 is a fun nod to the '90s!

Wonderful combos, and may I say that you wear high waisted self belt pants like they were made for you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwobg-1#post-2151344 Mon, 02 Nov 2020 14:14:30 +0000 Lynne 2151344@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous!

Great outfits! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwobg-1#post-2151328 Mon, 02 Nov 2020 13:37:53 +0000 Liesbeth 2151328@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks kkards &amp; Bijou!<br /> Yes, 1 would have worked better with black booties (though the turtleneck is navy).<br /> And I also agree that my choices are pretty classic but all this talk in other threads has got me thinking and I will elaborate a bit on timeless vs trendy in my follow-up posts. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwobg-1#post-2151312 Mon, 02 Nov 2020 12:48:59 +0000 Bijou 2151312@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#2 is fabulous, definitely 2020 and a great example of the tomboy 1940’s style that you wear exceptionally well. I like #1 too and your items for future styling sessions look timeless. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwobg-1#post-2151311 Mon, 02 Nov 2020 11:57:52 +0000 kkards 2151311@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love #2, love the way it gives a nod to past fashion era’s but is styled for today. I like the way you’ve played with proportions, and olive pants with a self belt are unexpected but IMO make the outfit&nbsp;<br />i like #2, but for me, i would have worn black shoes to echo back to your black turtleneck&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwobg-1#post-2151307 Mon, 02 Nov 2020 10:58:00 +0000 Liesbeth 2151307@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had some time this morning so I immediately jumped on Carla’s challenge: <a href="https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oldies-but-goodies-challenge" rel="nofollow">https://youlookfab.com/welookf.....-challenge</a></p> <p>My terms: anything pre-pregnancy (so roughly five years old) is a contender. I have some older pieces than that but mainly in the coat, bag and party dress department (or strictly layering tees). I will style an outfit around one ‘old’ piece because the idea is to make it look current and also because I don’t have so very many older pieces that I could pair two.</p> <p>For my first outfit I decided to style a plaid shirt. Coincidentally, I had worn my other plaid shirt just last week in an attempt to give it new life, so here you get two challenge outfits for the price of one ;). When I bought these I mainly wore them untucked over skinny jeans, possibly with a longer vest layered over, and with heeled booties and a black leather jacket for some supposedly rockstar chique.</p> <p>I’m very much into turtlenecks right now so that’s where last week’s outfit came from. Then today I wore the plaid shirt in a pretty basic way but I think the combination with these self-belted pants and flat lace-ups is very 2020 - with a nod to nineties grunge and forties post-war tomboy style. Feel free to disagree or offer more suggestions to bring plaid shirts into 2020!</p> <p>Last pic is a sneak peek of the outfits to come :). Probably not all of them this week but definitely planned for sometime in the following two weeks. </p>
