My mum plays bridge and also uses it as an opportunity to dress up. In fact, various items that I have handed up to her have become part of her bridge ensemble. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwto-play-bridge#post-1918380 Fri, 11 May 2018 04:58:34 +0000 Freckles 1918380@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfits.&nbsp; Good for you for finding an opportunity to dress up a bit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwto-play-bridge#post-1918362 Fri, 11 May 2018 02:46:39 +0000 Jaime 1918362@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Carla your outfits are fantastic. #1 is my new goal! My paternal grandfather was an amazing bridge player. He also did card tricks and worked as a bookie, but that is a story for another time ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwto-play-bridge#post-1918333 Fri, 11 May 2018 00:02:37 +0000 Aida 1918333@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Whole lot looks fab. I love it all -- The bold simplicity of #1, the smart mix of neutrals in #2, and trendy pants+printed jacket in #3. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwto-play-bridge#post-1917777 Wed, 09 May 2018 15:30:01 +0000 Bonnie 1917777@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your outfits are great and your accessories are fab! I started playing Bridge last year and DH started 3 months ago. It's kind of addictive and a great opportunity for us retirees to dress up. We're in the beginners group and have a wonderful mentor so it's been fun.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwto-play-bridge#post-1917756 Wed, 09 May 2018 14:45:10 +0000 Sara L. 1917756@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are great.&nbsp; I especially like #3 - the pattern jacket and the burgundy top look great on you.&nbsp; I've never played Bridge although we played a lot of cards in my family.&nbsp; We usually played Hearts or Pinochle.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwto-play-bridge#post-1917746 Wed, 09 May 2018 14:34:23 +0000 JAileen 1917746@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love all of your outfits, of course. You’re really enjoying your retirement. Good for you! Years ago, one of my brothers, my parents and I were camping. My parents desperately wanted to play bridge. They tried to teach my brother and me. We just weren’t getting it. It might have been because it was so hot. Anyway, they were absolute fiends. My mother still plays at 93. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwto-play-bridge#post-1917737 Wed, 09 May 2018 14:26:16 +0000 Angie 1917737@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You bridge in style, <b>Carla. </b>LOVING the way you wear ballet flats, and paperbag waists.&nbsp;<b></b> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwto-play-bridge#post-1917713 Wed, 09 May 2018 13:41:39 +0000 cjh 1917713@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice choices! Isn’t it fun to get involved in something new and get to know some new and interesting people? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwto-play-bridge#post-1917674 Wed, 09 May 2018 11:37:14 +0000 Aquamarine 1917674@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look super. I bet you injected some serious style into your senior center. Your outfits and sporty, active nature reminds me of the fact that there can be a good 40 years difference amongst the so-called “older” demographic. So you can have the younger “seniors” and the “older” seniors with vastly different interests, activity levels, and even fashion! Methinks as the boomers age, the two groups will become one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwto-play-bridge#post-1917644 Wed, 09 May 2018 09:37:32 +0000 Inge 1917644@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fun that you are finding occasions to dress up, Carla (and yay for that special dinner event;-). I love all three outfits here. Love the textural interest and contrast of the crisp white with the navy in outfit 1. The tie on the skirt is such a beautiful accent in outfit 2 (and adding a denim jacket works so well here). Great trousers in the last outfit, and the burgundy belt is such a good accent (lovely jacket too)! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwto-play-bridge#post-1917641 Wed, 09 May 2018 09:31:05 +0000 Style Fan 1917641@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They are all great outfits, Carla.&nbsp; The third one is my favourite.&nbsp; I love the wide legged cropped pants and the colour mixing.&nbsp; As Joy has said retirees need to grab the opportunities to dress up.&nbsp; I have certainly found that especially living in a small town.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwto-play-bridge#post-1917628 Wed, 09 May 2018 07:50:02 +0000 rachylou 1917628@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How fun! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwto-play-bridge#post-1917626 Wed, 09 May 2018 07:39:25 +0000 Lesley 1917626@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look terrific! Those flats are amazing. It would strike me that the first step at ruling the bridge table is to kill it with your outfit! ;)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwto-play-bridge#post-1917623 Wed, 09 May 2018 07:10:01 +0000 Cardiff girl 1917623@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Geezer magnet!Not heard that one before.3 lovely smart but casual outfits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwto-play-bridge#post-1917596 Wed, 09 May 2018 03:25:26 +0000 Anonymous 1917596@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Runcarla, you are wise to grab any chance you get to dress up a bit when retired. They may have some sort of holiday celebration that calls for a somewhat casual festive outfit. Metallic jeans can be a good choice if you don't mind being a geezer magnet </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwto-play-bridge#post-1917590 Wed, 09 May 2018 03:08:20 +0000 Carla 1917590@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>DH and I came from card playing families, and DH and I played Bridge together in uni. DH has played competitive Duplicate Bridge with DS#1 for 7 years and tagged me for Tuesday night 'Stress Free Bridge' at our local Senior Center once we retired. I'm using the outing as an opportunity to dress up a little. I've been to 3 Bridge nights and my nerves have settled.</p> <p>#1 sunny but cold day and I did not know if the seniors Center would be hot or cold so I wore...<br /> Navy cashmere cotton sweater - Uniqlo<br /> White jeans - Winners<br /> White loafers - Nine West</p> <p>#2 the tops are oldies...<br /> Striped and dotted 3/4 sleeve button down - Lands End<br /> Jean jacket - MWWH<br /> Khaki paper bag waist skirt - Uniqlo<br /> Navy shoes - Jessica/Sears<br /> Striped seatbelt bag - Harvey's</p> <p>#3 I decided to use a special occaision clutch since all I needed was my wallet, phone and tissues (spring allergies - ugh!)<br /> Wine cotton tank - Joe Fresh<br /> Ikat jacket - Kenneth Cole Reaction/Winners<br /> Beige cotton wide leg crops - Uniqlo<br /> Wine leather belt - Winners<br /> Navy leather shoes - Jessica/Sears<br /> Blue Leather clutch - Zenith Handbags/Winnners</p> <p>#4 close-up of tonight's accessories </p> <p>I'll continue to use Bridge Night as an opportunity for 'dressy casual', however we are having a special dinner event in June that may call for fancy dress! So I may have to dig out my LBD. Woohoo!</p> <p>Thanks for looking! </p>
