And that bag and the scarf take it over the top.</p> <p>(Odd curiosity - do you still do ballroom dancing? I wonder how it’s been working out post pandemic) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx3-spring-spice#post-2309948 Thu, 23 Feb 2023 20:34:38 +0000 Helena 2309948@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks so great!

My favourite is #6, I can see the Dark Romance theme here too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx3-spring-spice#post-2309589 Wed, 22 Feb 2023 05:07:12 +0000 Kyle 2309589@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Outfits 5 and 6 are breathtaking. I especially love the detail in the way #5’s crossbody strap contrasts against the black and ties in so perfectly with your pants and boots while creating a strong diagonal line. Divine.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx3-spring-spice#post-2309573 Wed, 22 Feb 2023 03:53:16 +0000 Jaime 2309573@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfits!

Yay for the kitty scarf :)&nbsp;</p> <p>#1 is super cute nautical fun! Love the pattern mixing.&nbsp;</p> <p>#4 is greatly graphic! Gorgeous fits.&nbsp;</p> <p>And the way the toppers and bags pull it all together to next level delicious fabness is skillful attention to detail.&nbsp;</p> <p>You have an enviable and AMAZING wardrobe!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx3-spring-spice#post-2309538 Wed, 22 Feb 2023 01:10:55 +0000 Tanya 2309538@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, Suz!&nbsp; I like name "cinnamon sailor".&nbsp; Most of the BR items are much older than two years.&nbsp;<br />Regarding those booties and the shaft fit, the fit was the actual reason I bought them.&nbsp; I found them at Rack at some ridiculous discount, like 80%, and was trying to decide how much I would use a color like this, which is not one of my usual colors.&nbsp; But once I tried them on, I was sold, because it is so rare to find non-stretch&nbsp; booties that fit so well on my skinny ankles, plus the zipper was silver - another rarity for booties in warm colors.&nbsp; Now I find myself trying to come up with the right outfits and opportunities so that I can wear them more. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx3-spring-spice#post-2309536 Wed, 22 Feb 2023 01:02:57 +0000 Suz 2309536@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Tanya</b>, you've done so well with BR in the past year or two. Judicious purchasing indeed because a lot of the items have not come in our cool colours -- yet you've made them work! I like all the outfits but especially #1, which I am calling "cinnamon sailor" and 6/7, which is really elegant on you. The booties seem to have a lovely fit at the shaft.&nbsp;</p> <p>Love your kitty scarf, too!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx3-spring-spice#post-2309535 Wed, 22 Feb 2023 00:52:45 +0000 Tanya 2309535@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The temperatures are not so springy here yet, but for the sake of consistency, I used the title from the outfit formula post.&nbsp; &nbsp;Cinnamon and other spice colors are far from by best, as I suit really cool colors.&nbsp; I am employing the standard technique of wearing them away from my face, or incorporating them in a print with my "good" colors, such as navy.&nbsp; Here are three pretty loose interpretations of the first, third and fourth suggestions from the Friday's post. They were all worn for casual outings this long weekend, first one to spend time with my friends and their young children (age 3 and 5) on a local playground and the others for errands.</p> <p>1) My version of "CINNAMON, LIGHT BLUE, DENIM AND WHITE" omits the light blue, and switches some things around, as anything in a solid spice color on my upper body is no-go.&nbsp; &nbsp; On the top there is an old navy/cinnamon striped sweater pattern mixed with a silk scarf in same colors, with a navy cream tweed puffer.&nbsp; Bottom of the outfit is the same as in the post: dark denim wide crops and white sneakers, which in my case are high-tops, because it was cold.&nbsp; The bag has the perfect colors for this scheme: navy crossbody with striped strap that has navy and several spice colors.</p> <p>2) My version of "CINNAMON AND NAVY" uses a sweater instead of a tunic.&nbsp; It consists of color-blocked sweater in navy, cream and cinnamon, paired with classic cinnamon pants and matching booties, toped with navy velvet puffer, and finished with navy beret and same bag as above.</p> <p>3) Finally, my version of "CINNAMON AND BLACK" switches up the colors from the post, with black cashmere sweater and rust (?) slip skirt, topped with black faux fur moto.&nbsp; &nbsp;I used the same cinnamon booties as above, my trusted black crossbody and tied it all up with cream silk scarf with black cats and cinnamon trim. </p>
