Oldie Challenge - Day 2 - YouLookFab Forum

Todays outfit started with my cobalt woven top and jean. Added three very Angie elements, white boots, tweed jacket and cute satchel bag. Those elements were definitely the stars of my outfit and I got lots of compliments about my outfit - which did make me chuckle because I thought, "This is the Angie effect".

I like this top, but much prefer it underneath a jacket because alas it does show lumpage and bumpage - but it is a wonderful colour.

The weather co-operated perfectly - sunny clear day with a max of about 22C - so topper required and I comfortable wearing this.

Photo 2 - without my fab jacket and bag

Boots - XSA - 2 years old
Jeans - Mother The Looker High Waist - Coffee, Tea Me? (I love that line from the movie Working Girl)
Woven top - 5 years old and getting close to having to say goodbye - I am on the lookout for a replacement
Jacket - JCrew - 2 years old
Bag - Kate Spade New York

Bijou, you look so beautiful in this gorgeous outfit. As I love great blazers - the blazer is the star for me here Great Angie inspired styling, I am getting to love light footwear, which was not the case before I joined YLF. Your bag is gorgeous and it is fun how this wonderful distinct colour works so beautifully with so many of your outfits - versatile.

Now about the cobalt top - it is great. Love the colour on you and it fits you perfectly. A wonderful “oldie”.

I can only say FABOULUS and full stop.

Gorgeous! Classic! When you do decide to part with your blue top, I think you will need a replacement.

Oh I think cobalt is my favourite colour! ( Used to be red, think cobalt has overtaken.) I love that top! YLF.

OH MY WORD. I'm humbled and blushing, Bijou. I have that jacket - and it's a beauty.

You look KILLER stunning. I'm glad you were complimented because the look loves you right back.

Bijou

Angie Ihave always loved that I have your jacket. It has special Angie magic for me! Thank you for posting your pictures, a beautiful ensemble, and just says Spring.

Yes, I get lots of compliments when I wear this. It is a great jacket and whilst my bag is not a Furla, it is a cute shape. I love the pop of colour.

You made my heart happy today, Bijou. You're awfully gracious. Thank you.

I bet you can wear our jacket over a dress too.

Thanks ladies, it is fun to hear that others have this Chenel inspired jacket too. The lilac bag has been a complete winner for me, I love its compact size and ability to hold a lot.
