I especially love 4--it is polished, colorful and fun. Love your hair in those loose curls too. Good for you for getting rid of what doesn't make you happy. I think the skirt in 1 looks fine but I totally understand about fit. It looks like it sits high on you. Love the stripes and scarf. You look fab. Great legs too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwtraceyliz65-repeat-challenge#post-877614 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 04:05:28 +0000 Kalli 877614@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fun challenge, maybe we should all join in at some point after I get through with actually wanting to get dressed. You look great but I agree with your comment on the skirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwtraceyliz65-repeat-challenge#post-877595 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 03:28:58 +0000 Carla 877595@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Raisin, the jacket is over 10 years old, and though only $25 from the outlet store, has been a wardrobe workhouse. The LE cords via catalogue are a lucky accident.</p> <p>Traceyliz65, I'm getting some of my best ideas from the WIW posts of Fabbers!</p> <p>Suz, I'm struggling with lighting for the photos. I'm trying different sites around the house in an effort to find the best natural light. I take my photos in the pm, when I come home from work. Moving outdoors when the weather is warmer might give truer colours, but that is still some time away.</p> <p>Pil, Thistle, thanks for the links. I've got the bigger cashmere squares and pashmina's sorted, but struggle with the slippery and thin oblong scarves. I found one style on each of the different sites that I want to try in the future. Thanks again!</p> <p>Karie, the colourful top was a splurge for me when I got it about 4 years ago, but the happiness factor is ++ every time I wear it. It is my go to top for every travel capsule as well, so wonderful associations too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwtraceyliz65-repeat-challenge#post-877406 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 00:50:38 +0000 Karie 877406@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your blouse is so colorful and so pretty! I love tops like that, they go with everything. I don't think the skirt is too short at all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwtraceyliz65-repeat-challenge#post-877400 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 00:48:05 +0000 Thistle 877400@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like both of these outfits, and I don't find the skirt too short. But if the fit is bothersome, most definitely to the charity pile!</p> <p>Here is another good resource on scarf tying <a href="http://www.scarves.net/how-to-tie-a-scarf/" rel="nofollow">http://www.scarves.net/how-to-tie-a-scarf/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwtraceyliz65-repeat-challenge#post-877383 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 00:35:34 +0000 pil 877383@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both outfits are really nice, Carla. The black skirt doesn't look too short, although I certainly understand a bothersome fit. The plum is so nice on you.</p> <p>You mentioned tying your red scarf differently. Someone, Sveta I think, posted a link from Nordsteom's website on scarf tying.</p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/c/scarf-video" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/c/scarf-video</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwtraceyliz65-repeat-challenge#post-877304 Wed, 13 Mar 2013 23:30:58 +0000 Suz 877304@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Is it okay to say that your runner's legs are amazing??? </p> <p>Love you in the pencil skirt and stripes. And WOW to your purple jacket. I am glad you showed us close up because in the full length photo I wouldn't have known the colour. It is SO difficult to photograph the darker tones. People always think I'm wearing (yet more) black when really it is navy or something. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwtraceyliz65-repeat-challenge#post-877292 Wed, 13 Mar 2013 23:19:18 +0000 TraceyLiz65 877292@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love that you joined in! Great job! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwtraceyliz65-repeat-challenge#post-877269 Wed, 13 Mar 2013 22:59:03 +0000 Raisin 877269@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I thought that looked like a fun challenge! I like what you've done so far. My, my, what a delish plum suit you have there! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwtraceyliz65-repeat-challenge#post-877265 Wed, 13 Mar 2013 22:57:53 +0000 Carla 877265@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Traceyliz65 posted a challenge of wearing an outfit, then carrying one item over to the next day's outfit, and so on. This is one of my own favourite themes. </p> <p>So, I continue with the photographs and the editing process, as I jettison losers, and identify holes. I addressed the u- garment issue, which alone is making me feel more fab this week!</p> <p>#1 Breton T - Reitman's<br /> Purple cotton velvet jacket - Tristan &amp; America<br /> Black pencil skirt - Mexx<br /> Loafers - Ellen Tracy<br /> Red/ purple/ tan scarf - ?</p> <p># 2 without the jacket</p> <p>#3 close- up for better colour</p> <p>#4 colourful top - BCBG Max Azria</p> <p># 5 purple cropped cords - Lands' End<br /> Peep toe flats - Liz Claiborne</p> <p>#6 close-up for better colour</p> <p>I've had the pencil skirt for a while, and I'm not liking how it looks. The waist is too big, and too high, and I think it is too short as well. It's going to the charity donation pile. I have another, longer, black skirt I'll try another time. The red scarf needs to be wound around the neck, more, not hanging down. #5 is a lot of plum/ purple, but I'm feeling ++ happiness in my favourite colour!</p> <p>Thanks for looking! </p>
