June additions - YouLookFab Forum

Finally, I have been able to add something to my wardrobe. I have not shopped since March. I recently completed a wardrobe audit and reviewed my style direction, more on that later, and my closet is in need.
I also got a haircut today.
I bought four pieces in June.

1/ Sanctuary Combat Pants - Olive Green
I have already shown a WIW of these. I have been wearing these a lot and highly recommend them.

2/ Levis Boyfriend Denim Shirt
I now have two denim shirts. This one is a bit oversized and works well with a tee underneath.

3/ Velvet White Button-up Shirt
I have been looking for a casual button-up shirt for a while and finally found one. The cotton is very soft and slightly sheer. Perfect for summer. I have added a picture doing a cool girl pose. This picture is a pre-haircut picture.

4/ Lululemon Yoga Leggings

Haircut!!!

Picture #2 is the inspiration, and Picture #3 is me. I am no longer doing the cool girl pose. Just regular me.

Thanks for looking.

Oh! Stylefan, you are a cool girl! You look like a spy from ‘Man From Uncle’ or ‘Mod Squad’ 21st century. #coolgirlgoals

Style Fan

Carla, you made my day! 'Man From Uncle' or 'Mod Squad'! I am flattered.

Jenni NZ

You are lovely and very amusing. “Regular you” is cool, I agree with Carla!
Maybe Joanna Lumley as well?

notsaf

Wonderful cool girl pose! You're a natural. I love all these pieces. Finding the right white button down for you is sucha great thing.

Well, all of the fabbers are lovely. Joanna Lumley was in 'The New Avengers'. I am noticing a theme here.

Sal

The hair looks gorgeous and your additions are well thought out for you. You look wonderful.

A white button down is one of the hardest things to find so well done here. The olive pants are very you as well.

AndiB

It was YOU who posted a WIW with these amazing pants. Another fabber was looking for olive slouchy pants and I directed her to these. I get so much inspiration from this blog. After you posted I bought the same sanctuary olive pants and they really are so great! Roomy but not baggy and the fun wide elastic at the ankles makes them special. I have a sanctuary plaid duster I got right before the shut down that I haven’t worn yet - being plaid it will have to wait for fall - and that’s maybe the first sanctuary brand piece I’ve purchased. Found that at Rack in a large which was way too big, it was sold out but I managed to find it on Poshmark NWT. score! Turns out I really like the brand. You look great in these!

Vildy

[claps hands] It is a Joanna Lumley haircut! And very cool.

KILLER new 'do! You absolutely look like the Mod Squad of the 21st century

Love your shirt and pants. Didn't know you were a shirt girl. High five!

Jaime

Nothing like a haircut! Yes to the Mod Squad reference. You look beautiful and I like your outfit too!

slim cat

Great haircut and lovely soft make up - fab!

Sal, thank you. I have been looking for a white button-up for years. I finally donated one because it was ill-fitting and never worn last year.
Andi, I saw your comment on Jenn's thread. Sanctuary is a great label, and I have three pairs of their pants. I would own more, but everything sells out so fast here.
Vildy, now I have another fashion icon to check out. I have never really looked at Joanna Lumley that carefully. I like it. Spy Hair!
Angie, I like this reference to the Mod Squad look. I didn't use to wear shirts, but I am moving towards them in my style direction. That is if I can find ones that work for me.
Shevia, thank you. I always wanted to be a Private Detective.
Slim Cat, thank you for the kind words.

Suz

Oh my gosh, you look gorgeous! What a great haircut, and fab fab pants on you. You are effortlessly cool, no matter what!

nemosmom

You are definitely cool! Love your new pieces and your hair looks incredible! I have started reaching for shirts more and more, too! They have to be just right, though - perfectly drapey; not stiff and not sloppy. They are hard to find!

Anonymous

It's all beautiful! Achieving the perfect white shirt AND the perfect haircut is a home run. Cool girls rule!

Peggy Lipton, FTW. Sanctuary makes the best casual pants, period. Mine are all too heavy for summer wear, but next year I'd love to add in a lightweight cotton cropped jogger or cargo. Love that white shirt too - I wish I could wear that look.

Jenn

You ARE a cool girl! I am definitely keeping an eye on Sanctuary! They have pretty limited offerings in my size right now, but everyone raves about them.

unfrumped

Totally fab. Great shirts and pants, and pose, and great crisp haircut.
We might have to start a Cool-Girl-Pose challenge.

Gigi

You look awesome in your "cool girl" pose! I like the fluid fit of your clothes.

Great haircut. I have naturally wavy hair but have been attracted to straighter hair lately. Maybe when this haircut grows out I will try something like what you have posted.

Your hair looks great- outfit and cool girl pose too!

rachylou

Whoa. Major gorgeous! It has just that little touch of insouciance that kicks it all up a notch.

Bonnie

You look terrific in your cool girl outfit. I wish I could pull this style off.

Mainelady

I can’t say it any better than Carla! Fabulous cut!
LOVE those pants!

Helena

Super cool ... great hair too, in both photos!

Sorry to not respond sooner. I was off doing spy work. Or being a cool girl.
I am happy that the shirt and haircut are a hit. I am thinking I like the idea of shirts these days.
Thank you, Suz. Being called gorgeous these days makes my day.
Nemosmom, I agree that the right shirt is hard to find. I am all about comfort.
Xtabay, Yeah! Cool girls rule!
Lisa, I agree about Sanctuary pants. I love them. They sell out so fast here in the Indie boutique that carries them. I have to go there the day they arrive.
Jenn, I will keep an eye out for something similar.
Unfrumped, I like that idea. Cool girl challenge.
Rachy, Major gorgeous. I am blushing.
Bonnie, you pull off your style beautifully.
Mainelady, thank you.
TG, thank you.

Brooklyn

You are a cool girl! Great additions. Thoughtful, and very much your style. The haircut looks great too.

Thank you, Brooklyn.
