A few WIW - YouLookFab Forum

My work wardrobe has become simpler, less jackets but still some and slightly less smart. Less formal dresses, I think is the main change.

1 - 3 my fav blue shirt with black pleated skirt and wide belt. I love this pleated skirt. Complete wildcard. Thank you Dorothy Perkins.

4 - a jacket from 2 winters ago and like an old friend, which is an easy layer to add.

5 Jigsaw silk blue shirt which I really enjoy wearing and I have duplicated in a light blush colour

6. Weekend wear, All Saints jumper, second hand camel / gold skirt from Toast with wide belt.

Bonus picture of our new padded bed cover, with Porridge. The bed cover is super as it goes with our cushions we purchased about 5 years ago, washes really easily and is great for winter.

Thank you for looking and all comments welcome.

Jane, you look lovely. Thanks for posting these outfits. I really admire the way you style your belts.

slim cat

You look great in all outfits! Love the hair and your smile.
The bed cover look very nice - Porrige approves .

kellygirl

You are so pretty and you have your colors down. The mustard jacket--not really mustard but I'm not sure what you call that color--is divine! You look fab in everything and your smile is your best accessory!

Cardiff girl

Lovely.l especially like the longer hair and the toast outfit and of course Porridge.

Minaminu

You look great, the colours look fab on you! What a sweetie Porridge is!

Helena

Lovely - so classic and pretty.

The Toast skirt looks like a real ‘score’. I bet you could wear it with the blue silk shirt and the jacket in #3. Wool jackets are made for fall days - I wore one today for the grocery run.

Jane, you always look fabulous! Pulled together, professional, pretty, and all round LOVELY. You wear waist-cinching belts with the best of them!

KILLER blazer in #3.

Such a treat to see you.... and Porridge

AMAZING match with the new bed cover and old pillows! Porridge approves....

Bijou

It is so lovely to see you and Porridge (such a cute name for a super cute dog). I just love all of these, your favourite jacket is a 10/10 - it is the perfect colour and fit and the skirt and belt combinations are fabulous.

The new bed cover is so lovely with the cushions, even better than if it was a matching set, the patterns are so complimentary.

Jaime

Everything looks great. Jacket and casual outfit especially!

Brooklyn

You look lovely in your signature style. I like the jacket especially.

Suz

Porridge for the win!! What a sweetie.

But Jane, you are looking so lovely. I really like your various shirts. I do see a bit more ease, relaxation in your outfits, but still elegant and put together.

Love doggie, is Porridge an indoor doggie? We do have a half year old dalmatian girl and struggle to let her indoors as she is dynamite mobile but would love to cuddle her on my bed as well.
Über gorgeous all your outfits-smart or casual! I noticed the use of golden-tan-beige (even Porridge is of that:-)) which is our hair color (mine, too:-)) and so usefull trick to make all more cohesive, isn't it!

Style Fan

Porridge is a sweetie. Love the golden brown jacket. Such a versatile piece. All your outfits are gorgeous.

Liesbeth

Great oufits! I love the last one with that interesting sweater, and you wear circle skirts with the best of them!

Barbara Diane

Ok, which matching item came first, the jacket or Porridge?
I especially like the double V and color contrast in #3.

You have such a stunning wardrobe, Jane, and always create such gorgeous outfits! All of these are fab, and that gold skirt is fantastic!

And yay, the bed cover is such a great find. It seems that Porridge approves too Look at that sweet face!

JAileen

Lovely outfits! I especially like the jacket in 4. The color is perfect with your hair.

Jane

Thank you Catherine, that is kind of you. I live belts!

Thank you Slim Cat! Porridge definitely approves of the bed cover!

Kellygirl, that’s kind of you! Maybe it’s more turmeric than mustard!

Thank you Cardiffgirl, I was super pleased when I found the toast skirt. I’m letting my hair do it own thing a little more, and growing it as lock down showed I needed less hair cuts.

Thank you minaminu, porridge is a very happy dog!

Thank you Torontogirl!

Thank you RunCarla, thank you for the inspiration, I’ve started to think of the skirt as slightly more flexible.

Thank you Angie, that is so kind of you, I try hard to look pulled together and polished so it is really lovely to hear that it seems to come across that way. The blazer was from Hobbs and I’ve tried to duplicate, but not had much luck. It was an amazing match. DH loves it too. Phew!

Thank you Bijou. Porridge so suits porridge, she is slightly lumpy as labradors sometimes are and loves food and is super loving.

Thank you Shevia!

Thank you Brooklyn

Thank you ever so much Suz, that is so lovely of you to say.

Thank you Lyn67, we love our two dogs and they are allowed in most places. Hence the need for needing to have machine washable covers! Porridge and I DO have matching hair colour!! good spot!

Thank you Style Fan. Porridge is a natural beauty!

Thank you Liesbeth. I love circle skirts!

Thank you Barbara Diane - very good! Porridge is my sub conscious fashion inspiration!!

Thank you Inge! That is so kind of you.

Thank you JAileen.
