Signature and very Denise. Not nearly as boho as when you first joined the forum - which is a look you rock as well btw.&nbsp;</p> <p>And Cocolion is as gorgeous as her Mama. I say she's a Warm Autumn and enjoys a minimal style that's texture-rich. </p> <p>Sorry I missed your bit on CBS. Hope that your family business is recovering. xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-reflecting-my-ffbo-formulas#post-1054618 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 18:44:38 +0000 JAileen 1054618@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I saw the news last night. I didn't realize you were right by the Rim Fire. So sorry about that, and then the government shut down on top of it. Hope next year is better. We had a week or two of such bad air quality from that fire that the school district cancelled all outdoor activities, from football games, to recess. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-reflecting-my-ffbo-formulas#post-1054089 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 05:36:10 +0000 Neel 1054089@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love both the outfits! &nbsp;The sci fi sweater is a beauty and steals the show! &nbsp;The coral necklace does light up your face. &nbsp;Brilliant combo!&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>And the bomber is quirky and cute! &nbsp;The color combo and pattern mixing is so unexpected yet so&nbsp;perfect! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-reflecting-my-ffbo-formulas#post-1054070 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 05:21:21 +0000 catgirl 1054070@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are both beautiful&nbsp;- your FFBOs are such an inspiration to me, especially the way you get the fit of everything just perfect. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-reflecting-my-ffbo-formulas#post-1054043 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 05:02:19 +0000 Ingunn 1054043@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your outfits reflects your signature style. This is so very you. I love both outfits. Your style serves as a reminder to me about keeping it simple, because simple is better almost always, and you prove this with such casual elegance. The first CocoLion is a beauty, too. Soft Autumn sounds about right.</p> <p>I'm very sorry to hear about your business struggles. Here's to a better year coming now! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-reflecting-my-ffbo-formulas#post-1053932 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 01:54:44 +0000 Suz 1053932@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Popping back in to offer sympathies about the restaurant -- you have had one heck of a year. May the one ahead be much brighter.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-reflecting-my-ffbo-formulas#post-1053928 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 01:52:09 +0000 Jaime 1053928@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love both of your beautiful outfits and Cocolion certainly knows how to wear a pop of color.

And the fall color is nice too. #3 is adorable. Is she a chocolate lab? We used to have one. They're the sweetest dogs ever.</p> <p>PS I'll watch the CBS News closely tonight. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-reflecting-my-ffbo-formulas#post-1053839 Wed, 16 Oct 2013 23:33:49 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1053839@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You two gals look gorgeous!</p> <p>Denise, you are one of the main reasons I went and bought the TR's - you always make them look fantastic.</p> <p>So sorry about the hardships you and your family continue to go through.

I was wearing a red $6 H&amp;M tee. Have learned not to spend a lot on work clothes they get stained quickly. </p> <p>Thank you for the kind words about our family business. We will survive but two local restaurants are closing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-reflecting-my-ffbo-formulas#post-1053828 Wed, 16 Oct 2013 23:19:43 +0000 JulieJohn 1053828@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the outfits, Denise. You look magical in silver, and Suz speaketh wisdom when she applauded the power of bookending.</p> <p>CocoLion is so beautiful, I wish I could play with her. She looks like the chocolate version of my dog, Penny. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-reflecting-my-ffbo-formulas#post-1053819 Wed, 16 Oct 2013 23:05:07 +0000 Anonymous 1053819@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>We just watched. &nbsp;Your brother is so handsome, and he did a great job with the interview. &nbsp;You two look a lot alike! &nbsp;I'm sorry you're going through this terrible time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-reflecting-my-ffbo-formulas#post-1053810 Wed, 16 Oct 2013 22:58:06 +0000 Mo 1053810@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You've nailed your uniform. &nbsp;If it ain't broke . . .&nbsp;<br />Speaking of uniform, were you by chance wearing a red top for the TV bit? &nbsp;If so, I saw you just walking off camera at the end of the interview in the background. &nbsp;Sucks what you guys are going through. &nbsp;We've had off years at the pub&nbsp;due to a bad&nbsp;snow season but nothing as severe as all this. &nbsp;Big fat bummer :(&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-reflecting-my-ffbo-formulas#post-1053794 Wed, 16 Oct 2013 22:39:39 +0000 K. Period. 1053794@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful! I always love your outfits, Denise. Even when they are tonal or simple, they have so much that is interesting (intriguing!) going on. BTW, how did I not know that you own a restaurant? Somehow that makes it even more apropos to say that you, my sweet, are a truffle in a world of white button.&nbsp;</p> <p>Love CocoLion. Suddenly it all makes sense. Soft Autumn for sure. I just want to rub her ears!&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-reflecting-my-ffbo-formulas#post-1053790 Wed, 16 Oct 2013 22:32:21 +0000 Deborah 1053790@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love both #1 and #2 and I wonder if the fact that your haven't tired of this fab look is because it's such a&nbsp;reflection of you, perhaps personality wise and style wise&nbsp; I see a real continuity in your style irrescpective of if your are dressing form home, a lunch out or a more formal function.&nbsp; You know what works for you and your maintian such integrity with your styling.&nbsp; </p> <p>What a gorgeous dog!&nbsp; Such a beautiful colour , she looks like a real sweetie. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-reflecting-my-ffbo-formulas#post-1053785 Wed, 16 Oct 2013 22:26:06 +0000 Liz A. 1053785@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ha!

First the fires, now the shutdown. You've been taking hits from all sides, haven't you?&nbsp;</p> <p>But on the bright side, you look marvelous and just as fashionable as ever. That must do a lot to brighten the mood of everyone you meet. I love your FFBO formula, especially outfit #1. The coral necklace up by your face is brilliant. Give Cocolion a pat from me. So sorry I won't get to see you next week!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-reflecting-my-ffbo-formulas#post-1053725 Wed, 16 Oct 2013 21:24:28 +0000 Suz 1053725@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are hilarious. Coco is either a soft autumn or a dark autumn, but she doesn't look as great as you do in the Report Marks booties. &nbsp;:-)&nbsp;</p> <p><b>LOVE</b> both these outfits, especially #1 with that wow sweater! And you really do wear those Reports well. It's amazing how they work with hair like ours, isn't it? I've been looking for a bootie in this colour but with a more sleek opening. Let me know if you see one. I want a little heel like this (maybe a bit smaller, but no taller). The magic of bookending...it's real.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-reflecting-my-ffbo-formulas#post-1053719 Wed, 16 Oct 2013 21:19:34 +0000 pil 1053719@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>1 is a real stunner. I really like 2 as well, but find myself drawn to quieter looks lately for some reason. Of course I wore black and white with a graphic print shirt today - go figure!</p> <p>CocoLion looks like a real sweetie. I was wondering how your business had been affected by the shutdown. (oops - glad I just caught a typo - There was an "i" instead of a "u" in shutdown - but that actually may have been apropos ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-reflecting-my-ffbo-formulas#post-1053718 Wed, 16 Oct 2013 21:18:24 +0000 kellygirl 1053718@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh, I hope I get home in time to watch it. What time do you think it is on? Love both of these outfits. You do tonal so well and I have to say you are queen if the bf jeans. Why fix something that works perfectly?! Coco lion is adorbs! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-reflecting-my-ffbo-formulas#post-1053714 Wed, 16 Oct 2013 21:15:35 +0000 Anonymous 1053714@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are gorgeous as always.

What do you think, is she a&nbsp;Soft Autumn? &nbsp;:-)</p> <p>Thanks for looking and commenting! </p> <p>ETA -- Here is the link of the news story:</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-250_162-57607891/senate-passes-bill-to-end-shutdown-avert-default-house-to-follow/?tag=breakingnews">http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-18.....community/</a></p>
