Taking up Synne’s challenge, here’s a group of outfits that each include at least one item that is long or not fitted. The overriding majority of pieces are still OBGs. One issue that came up immediately is the problem of outerwear. I’ve collected mid-thigh coats/ jackets in my finds ever since I’ve been on YLF. Looks like it’s time to do something about that. I think of the blackberry one from Halogen as “the one that got away”. Also, I’m still working on fitting in the moto.
1-5 found this barrette in the big leather moto, idk where I got it, but I pretend I’m Brooklyn with her classy Byzantine pieces from Moma when I wear it.

Hat & mittens TJ Max ca 2015. Are they in ok shape? Someone commented on them, but I wasn’t sure if it was clear the edges are fuzzy because they’re supposed to be.
11-15 I’m sure taking this woman’s pic without asking is illegal, so I have obscured her face. She made me smile because she’s me in a couple decades—all those shades of rosy warm berry colors plus a touch of something else jff, and then the practical shoes and backpack. And then there’s me wearing my cozy sweater blankie out with jeans, and at home with a tunic. Irene said that to decide about it, she needed to see it with something besides the pink jeans. I’m glad I took the pix, because otherwise I was thinking cardi, tunic & tights (14) would work oitw. Nope!

I just love these swimmers. They are along the edge of the river as if they’re about to dive in, FKK (“Free Body Culture”—German for being nude in public, which is not considered lewd in many contexts).
16-21. Trying to lighten up the leather jacket as Janet suggested, with light-colored pieces around it. Does it work?

The train station is part of a line that just opened. My son and I toured it while it was under construction, because we are nerds like that.
Thanks for looking! Comments and suggestions on currency of these looks/ how to update are appreciated.
