I really like the plaid skirt/white blouse combo. It's so fun to see your kiddies--they are so cute. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-wool-shortsbooties-and-new-taupe-chie-miharas#post-453700 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 14:30:10 +0000 Angie 453700@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know the Mackage coat well, Natalie. I had it on several clients during the NAS. It's not the same camel as the amazing cape though - and Mackage does not offer colours very often. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-wool-shortsbooties-and-new-taupe-chie-miharas#post-453696 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 14:27:12 +0000 goldenpig 453696@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, the Mackage coat is actually camel. More pics in the other keep or return thread... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-wool-shortsbooties-and-new-taupe-chie-miharas#post-453688 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 14:21:34 +0000 Isis 453688@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#1 is a fantastic outfit! Your kids are adorable!!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-wool-shortsbooties-and-new-taupe-chie-miharas#post-453673 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 14:11:29 +0000 Angie 453673@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the shorts outfit! You nailed it :)</p> <p>I adore outfit #3 too. So elegant! KILLER in my book. I like the way the lady like look contrasts with your geek-ish frames. Cool. </p> <p>I like the fit of the coat but am not entirely sold on the colour. Mackage tends to stick to black and camel. It could be the artificial light in that room though. Take a photo outside? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-wool-shortsbooties-and-new-taupe-chie-miharas#post-453617 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 13:22:18 +0000 rae 453617@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gah! Killer shorts outfit, and I love the coat in 4 and the cool stars on your shoes! Looks like you have a fashionista in training there. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-wool-shortsbooties-and-new-taupe-chie-miharas#post-453615 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 13:20:54 +0000 Anonymous 453615@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE your shorts, boots, and tights look.

I think the shorts outfit is fab for day out with the kiddos. Your little ones are too cute! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-wool-shortsbooties-and-new-taupe-chie-miharas#post-453563 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 11:47:33 +0000 Cilleena 453563@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The outfit with shorts and tights is my favorite! OMG! Your little ones are so cute! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-wool-shortsbooties-and-new-taupe-chie-miharas#post-453560 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 11:29:14 +0000 Sveta 453560@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute kiddies!<br /> I prefer shirt tucked in with this skirt: it is more proportionate this way. Lovely new shoes and that outfit with shorts is perfect: I wish I could wear shorts too!<br /> I like the coat actually mut I think it will look better with jeans and pencil skirts: I prefer shorter fitted coat to wear with flared skirts - or a longer one which coves them completely.<br /> Nice work, Natalie, on honing your new found style! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-wool-shortsbooties-and-new-taupe-chie-miharas#post-453555 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 10:52:47 +0000 citygirldc 453555@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I got the same skirt but haven't worn it yet because I'm not sure what kind of top to wear it. Anyway, it looks great on you since you're much taller than I am. I'll have to get the advice of everyone here to see if I should keep or return. I like photo #5 with the shirt tucked into the skirt because it flatters your body. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-wool-shortsbooties-and-new-taupe-chie-miharas#post-453551 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 09:51:00 +0000 Anonymous 453551@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You tights plus shorts works just perfect. But HOW CUTE ARE YOU KIDS!:) I love seeing pics of young families. So much joy. It reminds me of home. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-wool-shortsbooties-and-new-taupe-chie-miharas#post-453546 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 09:22:14 +0000 rute 453546@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG! You babies are so cute!!<br /> Love your look in 1! Those shorts and boots are lovely! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-wool-shortsbooties-and-new-taupe-chie-miharas#post-453531 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 06:23:11 +0000 goldenpig 453531@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>1-2. WIW Wednesday MOTG to the local pumpkin patch<br /> Hinge faux shearling vest<br /> Forever 21 turquoise patterned top and bracelet<br /> Sanctuary Nolita brown wool shorts<br /> Gap herringbone tights<br /> Mia brown lace-up booties<br /> I haven't worn these wool shorts and tights before...does this look work?<br /> Bonus shot of the kiddos in shark &amp; penguin costumes! (I've got a mermaid costume on but you can't see it very well)</p> <p>3. WIW Thursday to work<br /> Anne Fontaine short sleeve ivory blouse<br /> H&amp;M plaid midi<br /> Fossil floral bag</p> <p>4. new Mackage Tessa camel coat (just wore it for the picture though).<br /> The camel coat is from Nordstrom. I wanted it ever since it was on sale at NAS but it was sold out. But it recently became available again at the NAS sale price. But I'm not totally sure about how this looks on me and want to get feedback on it--I will post more details about it in a keep or return thread so stay tuned!</p> <p>5. shirt tucked into midi--I like it both ways, which do you prefer?</p> <p>6. ...and a new pair of Chie Mihara heels! I love my CM rust sandals so much and they are so comfy that when I saw these on the Anthro website I was instantly hooked! They are called Written in Stars heels and are taupe with bronze colored moon and stars and comet stripes across the back. These shoes were a bit tight in the toe box so I had to size up from a 37.5 to a 38. I was debating about getting these for weeks, because I already have a pair of nude Easy Spirit heels that are similar and have a lower heel (although the CM's are more of a darker taupe than a camel like the Easy Spirits). So it was totally impractical and irrational to get these. But I couldn't help myself...I was bowled over by their fabulosity! </p> <p>There is a similar CM style with a lower heel called Rostar that are black with brown stars. I thought about getting those (since they would go with both black and brown clothes), but it felt a little too "witchy" and theatrical. I really like how the taupe and bronze is more subtle...it's perfect for my retro classics with a twist taste. They're normal looking conservative shoes, until you look closely and see the stars. Kinda like my bee blouse and yellow owl blouse. I love secretly whimsical clothes! I got a lot of compliments on my shoes today. They are very sturdy and comfortable for their heel height, with the stacked heel, ankle strap and cushioned outsole. I had to pay full price, but given how much I love and wear my other Chie Mihara sandals, I think these will be worth it too! </p> <p>Comments and suggestions welcome as usual! Bonus shots of DD posing in front of the mirror (I guess she's starting YLF early!) and the kiddos together. </p>
