All good, but #4 (rich color, drape), 6/10 (soft colors, playful silhouette), 12 (yummy textural layers of gray) 15 (boho fun), and 18 (sand out!) jump out at me, really really nice. I also adore how your hair looks in 14-16, and extra fun with the cognac/boho accents there. Glad to hear you and your hair are on the mend, I <i>totally</i> feel you on that -- as Rae once put it "When my hair feels stupid, everything feels stupid". Sooo true for me!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwswhite-is-the-new-black/page/2#post-1371010 Tue, 07 Oct 2014 02:35:05 +0000 catgirl 1371010@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are all uber-fantastic.&nbsp; The Theory jacket!&nbsp; The R&amp;B sweat-jeans!&nbsp; The Diesel pants!&nbsp; I am blown away.&nbsp; 18 is my fave of faves here - all colors I can't wear, and so well executed! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwswhite-is-the-new-black/page/2#post-1370988 Tue, 07 Oct 2014 02:08:57 +0000 amiable 1370988@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely! &nbsp;I want your new bag! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwswhite-is-the-new-black#post-1370853 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 23:21:23 +0000 jackiec 1370853@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Elizabeth P - the top is pretty white as opposed to ivory. Not a pure optic white, but way more white than cream. It looks a bit ivory as compared to my white theory pants but you can barely notice (and we're allowed to mix whites! Yay!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwswhite-is-the-new-black#post-1370846 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 23:17:25 +0000 Staysfit 1370846@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All your looks are beautiful! You carry yourself well and clearly have developed a good eye for what works for you. I love how deceivingly simple everything looks, but each detail is carefully considered and comes across as polished and coordinated. White is the new black for you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwswhite-is-the-new-black#post-1370783 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 22:09:49 +0000 Anonymous 1370783@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You got the Coach bag! I'm so excited for you! It looks great with the booties and cardigan. Score!&nbsp;I love your outfits, Jackie. You can do no fashion wrong. </p> <p>Your highlights are gorgeous!&nbsp;Sit with your hair for a little bit. It's hard when you first decide to let it do it's own thing (especially when your eye is used to seeing it perfectly styled)&nbsp;but you will both settle into a beautiful relationship together. Wash it less and don't be afraid to use leave in conditioner or other product. After a summer of wavy hair, I thought I was ready to start blowing mine into a smooth bob again, but I'm hooked. It just took some time to get used to the wavy look and stop being scared by that woman in the mirror!&nbsp;</p> <p>Sorry for being so bossy. I was sad that you didn't get to go to the meet-up. Next time! :D</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwswhite-is-the-new-black#post-1370773 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 21:51:30 +0000 Karie 1370773@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, I love it all! White <i><b>is</b></i> the new black, and I reach for it now constantly. Last year I wore white jeans&nbsp;year round, and I plan on doing the same this year. All of your outfits look fab. Are those the Rag and Bone sweats in #5? They look great on you. And I love #11 - those boots look so fun! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwswhite-is-the-new-black#post-1370631 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 19:20:39 +0000 abc 1370631@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>MOTG style icon. &nbsp;Love how you do lots of solids in an interesting way. &nbsp;Your shoe collection is TDF. &nbsp;Bootie envy for sure. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwswhite-is-the-new-black#post-1370623 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 19:06:13 +0000 CocoLion 1370623@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow… just wow. &nbsp;I don't even know where to start. &nbsp;You have great style! &nbsp;I'm bookmarking this for future outfit ideas.</p> <p>And now I blame you for making me "need" cognac booties and bag!!! &nbsp;;-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwswhite-is-the-new-black#post-1370615 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 18:46:47 +0000 Sara L. 1370615@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are all great outfits!&nbsp; You look so effortlessly chic in all your photos.&nbsp; Your hair looks fine to me but I think we are our worst enemies when it comes to hair.&nbsp; Mine doesn't always cooperate either but I'm pretty sure I'm the only one who notices how weird it looks some days.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwswhite-is-the-new-black#post-1370576 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 17:23:56 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 1370576@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fab collection of looks. &nbsp;I particularly like you in the deep reds and the chambray/soft blue. &nbsp;Your outfit in 17/18 is fabulous. &nbsp;Your new stylist did a great job on the highlights too.<br />Thanks for sharing. &nbsp;I love white is the new black. &nbsp;:)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwswhite-is-the-new-black#post-1370550 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 16:59:07 +0000 shemarie 1370550@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are all so beautiful, but I especially love, love, love #6 and #15!&nbsp; As another&nbsp;MOTG of crazy active kids, I adore your style...you make it look so effortlessly cool and chic! I would love to one day have my closet function as yours does.&nbsp;&nbsp;And&nbsp;I'm totally with you on the "saving grace" properties of white, especially for the fair-haired! So, so thankful the "no white after Labor Day" rule has become a thing of the past!! Thanks, too, for sharing the details on your awesome bootie collection...off to look at DV and Aldo! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwswhite-is-the-new-black#post-1370504 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 15:59:21 +0000 Suz 1370504@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, Jackie - thank you so much for those details -- super helpful! We used to have a Mexx outlet here but no more. I will consider the cardi. I might check to see if the Bay is carrying it - -they do carry some Mexx.&nbsp;</p> <p>Off to ponder but will check back with you if I decide -- super generous of you to offer.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwswhite-is-the-new-black#post-1370497 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 15:35:04 +0000 Elizabeth P 1370497@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Jackie.&nbsp; I've had the black/white plaid one that Janet has sitting in my shopping cart for a while now... I'll be pulling the plug soon.&nbsp; Thrilled we don't have to pay duty anymore!! &nbsp;&nbsp; Just out of curiosity, how off-white is the off-white?&nbsp; It looks pretty darn white on my screen.&nbsp; But I have to be very careful not to stray far from optic white. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwswhite-is-the-new-black#post-1370447 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 14:24:19 +0000 jackiec 1370447@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Glad to hear I'm not the only one in love with white :)</p> <p><b>greycat6&nbsp;</b> - YES my hair is also not curly but not straight. I have no secrets. My new hairdresser slapped me on the wrists for my lack of care....I either use a straight iron or a curling iron sometimes, or nothing at all. I picked up a nice curling creme which seems to be helping so I can air-dry these days. It usually curls for a week or two after a cut, then it's back to flat with a kink.</p> <p><b>Elizabeth P -&nbsp;</b>it's the sleeveless Pleoine wrap blouse!! I am so in love with it ordered it in black earlier this month (but still need to pick it up at the border). Well well worth it (it's on sale!). I'd consider duplicating. It's a workhorse.</p> <p><b>Suz -&nbsp;</b>You are too kind!!! Those are those DV booties in 17/18. They are such workhorses for me. I'm not sure if they are, in fact, the same ones that you &amp; Una had (as you'd mentioned before) because they aren't 3" tall. The heel height is just perfect for me - and I default to them all.the.time. Yes - the blouse is the Pleoine wrap - it's worth a try. I am pulling it out repeatedly. I think the white/ivory is currently sold out but as I mentioned I've also ordered the black. The cardi is, in fact, the Mexx one I was mentioning on your thread. I like the simple lines. Like you, I just can't handle drap. In fact, I've determined that cardi's in general are tough for me. I'm a fast walker and can't stand when pieces fly away behind me. I need everything fastened down for the whirlwind! This is a small. Nothing fancy but I like it. I think it was $59 less 30% at the Mexx outlet. My son practices hockey periodically at a rink where close to this silly outlet mall....bad mom &nbsp;as I am I tend to drop him off at practice, then kill some time at the outlets....this last time I scored the cardi &amp; the Aldo cognac booties. The booties are Hassick and were $90 less $20 that day, so reallly very inexpensive for leather. Again, I am drawn to a particular heel height and sleek factor. I held off on wearing these because I was wondering if I should hold out longer for some proper cognac chelseas like Angie's Pradas. But I just couldn't resist pulling them out to match with my new Coach crossbody. I might be back at the outlets next Sunday. I can see if the grey cardi is still there. I'd be happy to send one your way if they had it. Mind you I think mine is a small and you'd prob be smaller than that. Not sure if they have that....Let me know ;)</p> <p><b>Angie -&nbsp;</b>WOW!!! Thank you SO much. Isn't white the greatist??</p> <p><b>Viva -&nbsp;</b>Ha! Don't think I can wear the grey sweater today because the weather is too nice. Good thing you can't smell photos because phew that was a nasty one! I had hiked the Grouse Grind that day with a visiting relative, then ran around to the orthodontist and errands for DS, then we had no dinner so went out for pizza....I threw this on after ripping off my smelly gear...anyhoo...like I said.....and the pinkish oxfords are BP brand from Nordstrom a year or so ago. Glad u like them </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwswhite-is-the-new-black#post-1370442 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 14:05:18 +0000 lyn67 1370442@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, you have a great style, was delighted to see them.&nbsp;Also, cannot pick a fave(perhaps those with the white jeans, then the cognac boots and bag?-but others are also fab so, love them all! And, your hair is gorgeous,&nbsp;too! Don't even understand what you are talking about, when mentioning it's&nbsp;not behaving???? Bruhaha!&nbsp;Curly haired girls, you&nbsp;are such a mare from time to time:-)). Anyway, thanx for posting-great inspirations, all over! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwswhite-is-the-new-black#post-1370429 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 13:54:01 +0000 viva 1370429@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Okay, you are just STUNNING. It's fabulous to get such a big dose of jackie-ness in one sitting! I love it! And your hair looks great to me -- gorgeous color, the wave! But, I get it when hair is not acting as we want it to. I have an appointment tomorrow and it is all I can do not to shave my head right now. LOL! </p> <p>I love everything, of course, but my absolute faves are 5, 6 (what are those shoes?????), 13, and 15. In fact, today I want to be you in 13. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwswhite-is-the-new-black#post-1370422 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 13:46:57 +0000 Angie 1370422@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YES, YES, YES.<b> WHITE IS THE NEW BLACK.&nbsp;</b>White jeans are magical that way aren't they? Casual with just the right amount of dressy.&nbsp;</p> <p>Hair looks super. Pretty and just lovely. The curl changes things up. You are gorgeous.&nbsp;</p> <p>Jackie, you rock my Chic MOTG Style world. I am wowed, and killer looks all round. #6, 10, 15 and 18 whack it out of the ballpark. I vote Killer to the power of Killer on those outfits. xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwswhite-is-the-new-black#post-1370418 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 13:41:45 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1370418@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not seeing anything too bad with the hair ... maybe wouldn't do the ringlets again but that's about it. I like the 14 and 15 looks the best.</p> <p>I'm in a mood for whites also. I've been wearing my cream colored boots a lot and&nbsp;I just ordered an ivory blazer and cardigan from some of the friends and family sales going on online this weekend. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwswhite-is-the-new-black#post-1370413 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 13:32:05 +0000 Suz 1370413@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jackie, you look sensational! You and your hair may not be 'getting along' but nobody would ever guess about that tangled relationship on the basis of these photos. I love every single outfit. The ones that completely blew me away, though, were 8/9/10; 12; 14/15; and especially 17/18. Wow!!&nbsp;</p> <p>Okay. Now, I need to ask --</p> <p>The grey cardi is the Mexx one, correct? Love it. That would work for me --though it might end up a wee bit long on me.&nbsp;</p> <p>Booties: What are you wearing in 17/18?&nbsp;</p> <p>Also, is that the Pleoine wrap blouse in that photo? It works so well on you I am seriously tempted to try one.&nbsp;</p> <p>Love the cognac booties! They actually bookend your hair -- which adds yet another layer of temptation for me, LOL. What are these ones?&nbsp;</p> <p>Enough questions. I will give you time to answer! :)</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwswhite-is-the-new-black#post-1370397 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 12:42:48 +0000 Anonymous 1370397@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You and your hair and outfits are beautiful.

These are all great looks. It's a treat to see your outfits. I know what you mean about hair, though; if it feels off, then it just makes me a big sourpuss about what I'm wearing!<br />I'm in awe of 15 through 18. Seroiusly in awe. You look so good in that long gray cardi and the boots and bag, and ditto for the jacket with the peplum over long top and white skinnies. Wow! Your hair is looking beautiful in that closeup in 16. Also, 2 and 3 are so elegant with that touch of lace softening the toughness of the jacket as well as the transition between black and white. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwswhite-is-the-new-black#post-1370303 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 04:26:03 +0000 Neel 1370303@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the hair looks great from where I sit :). But I understand what you mean. My hair is currently in a similar state. Neither long nor short ... And pretty annoying (I am growing it out).</p> <p>Your outfits are all beautiful! And white loves you back :). 1, 4, 5, 9, 15 and 18 are my absolute favorites. You wear slouchy pants so well! The pajama jeans were made or you :). Fantastic bunch of outfits! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwswhite-is-the-new-black#post-1370288 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 03:57:39 +0000 Sal 1370288@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They are all great but I especially love 6 and 18!<br />You look so polished yet casual, which is a great combination. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwswhite-is-the-new-black#post-1370273 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 03:31:15 +0000 Elly 1370273@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love 4, 5, 6, 10, and 12, with 5 probably being the favorite.
