Even though the trench has a pattern; it works because it is one color. The outfit has interest with layering and texture. Nicely done! My plain is one or two colors with no accessories </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwplain-inspired-by-synne/page/2#post-2190781 Wed, 28 Apr 2021 21:31:12 +0000 Style Fan 2190781@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am also getting an equestrian vibe.&nbsp; The outfit looks very classic to me.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwplain-inspired-by-synne#post-2190646 Wed, 28 Apr 2021 14:54:03 +0000 Suz 2190646@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Simple or minimal, not plain!

I think I should just skip the Plain Challenge. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwplain-inspired-by-synne#post-2190438 Tue, 27 Apr 2021 20:37:11 +0000 Anonymous 2190438@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Once in a blue moon I wear navy head to toe in the form of jeans, pullover &amp; bootie or jeans, T and sneaks or oxfords. Guess that’s my plain.</p> <p>You look very intriguing here and mysterious (in my mind:)<br /> Like Synne, I feel like you’re off for an important or clandestine meeting/rendezvous. In the best way.</p> <p>Like you were trying to be incognito but it backfired and people can’t help noticing your outfit/hair/ambiance. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwplain-inspired-by-synne#post-2190424 Tue, 27 Apr 2021 19:29:36 +0000 Jonesy 2190424@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it!

Oh well, I shall post it as a WiW anyway - all aboard the Plain Train </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwplain-inspired-by-synne#post-2190268 Tue, 27 Apr 2021 11:34:29 +0000 Anonymous 2190268@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it! I guess plain to me would be a lbd, or black or beige top + black skirt. Or of course my all black sleep- loungewear. Maybe I'll do one tomorrow when I have to go out!<br /> I'm definitely wanting to go more in the simple classic direction, backlash against all the brights, ruffles, and chaos at retail now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwplain-inspired-by-synne#post-2190265 Tue, 27 Apr 2021 11:17:07 +0000 Staysfit 2190265@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Runcarla, I think you said it best when asking about individual versions of plain. &nbsp;I think you nailed it! &nbsp;I like the crisp structure in your version. &nbsp;Without it, you might look sloppy rather than chic. My version of plain for Spring would include medium to low contrast, solid colors, and sleek lines and structure, because I am am Vertical Yang dominant. &nbsp;I would wear evenly dyed slim straight jeans, a solid narrow, minimally draped V neck top fitted at the shoulders, and either a simple sleek blazer, or a simple, narrow, long line cardigan, also crisp at the shoulders. &nbsp;I would choose either oxfords or sneakers as shoes. &nbsp;I like the way laces extent the long vertical line but still look fairly simple/plain. &nbsp;I would pare down my jewelry, but I would wear something, most likely simple earrings and always a bangle or two.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwplain-inspired-by-synne#post-2190263 Tue, 27 Apr 2021 10:59:30 +0000 ChristelJ 2190263@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is very striking with the high contrast. Really nice.<br /> I think the eye is drawn to the shapes more when there is no pattern or ornament to distract. Also the face and hair stand out more.<br /> My personal plain is a white tee and blue jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwplain-inspired-by-synne#post-2190260 Tue, 27 Apr 2021 09:37:07 +0000 Sisi 2190260@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For me plain means simple essential garments. My usual version is a blue v-neck pullover, jeans and cognac booties or black moccasins.</p> <p></p> <p>I think <b>Shevia</b>&nbsp;is right - the result can be beautiful. You look very elegant. &nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwplain-inspired-by-synne#post-2190248 Tue, 27 Apr 2021 07:10:34 +0000 Star (Lise) 2190248@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Classic outfit.

You have some very elegant drama to your style, I just realized. It is usually toned down with your more classic on-the-go looks. Very interesting! Fab outfit!

Perhaps more minimalist than plain.</p> <p>I don’t think I do plain. I like fancy schmancy </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwplain-inspired-by-synne#post-2190229 Tue, 27 Apr 2021 05:03:38 +0000 Anonymous 2190229@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous outfit! I would have to add texture and a scarf. That would spoil<br /> the simplicity.<br /> My idea of plain is all solid neutrals with no accessorizing, play with texture or even much contrast. I don’t think I do plain. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwplain-inspired-by-synne#post-2190222 Tue, 27 Apr 2021 04:29:00 +0000 Sally 2190222@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your look here is very classic.&nbsp; Good for walking in style and hanging out at a polo match with a glass of champagne.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwplain-inspired-by-synne#post-2190200 Tue, 27 Apr 2021 02:12:03 +0000 Leslie 2190200@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Minimal and sharp, NOT plain.

This is a cool challenge. I don’t know what my plain is... I think I look really unfinished in ‘plain’ outfits. Like a navy skirt, navy leggings, and grey tee. But I see these ads and stock photos and YLF’ers, where the look is amazingly complete! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwplain-inspired-by-synne#post-2190157 Mon, 26 Apr 2021 22:03:56 +0000 Anonymous 2190157@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What is this plain business ?

Crisp and authoritative ( if I’ve got the spelling right..).

Black sweater, white jeans, leopard sneakers. Uniqlo ultralight down jacket-black.<br /> Love your layering tan jacket and trench coat.

I think I can find pieces without ornamentation, but it’s hard given my love of texture and shine. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwplain-inspired-by-synne#post-2190148 Mon, 26 Apr 2021 20:47:28 +0000 Irina 2190148@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This would be my version of plain I, myself would wear black oxfords instead of boots, though. </p>
