WIW: Catching Up - YouLookFab Forum

Hi Ladies, feeling a little bad about posting and running:(. I'm missing not having the same amount of time I used to have here.

My love affair with black and dark tones continues:).

#1
New simple jersey dress from Motto with workhorse long vest and ankle boots - office outfit this week.

#2
Casual non work day. EF harems (oh how do I love thee) and old Decjuba wooden top.

#3
Weekend wear.. Ponte leggings ands old tunic from Birdsnest and OTK suede boots.

#4
Another non word day outfit ..coated skinny pants, wedge heel sneaks (I still love these...are they "out") and grey tank layered under navy split back sweater.

I probably don't need to say it, but I love winter lol.

Excuse the headless shots...hair out of control ha ha. Hair appointment today! Yay! And playing with filters and tones in my pics;)

Thanks for looking and always appreciate your thoughts, suggestions, critiques etc

Elegant as always, even on an off day. I don't think wedge sneakers are trending anymore but yours look so good I wouldn't get rid of them.

Aida

Looking fab as ever Deborah! I did a double take at #4, not all black?? VERY nice moody shades there. Also looooove the drama of #1, delicious.

Deborah

Thanks UmmLila :). I love the sneaks, they are very boot like and so comfy and give me some height;)

Thanks Aida. I do like drama!! But just in my clothes lol

Deb, your hair is looking amazing in the first two shots! And so are the outfits. #1 is killer striking on you. (Did you meet with your manager and figure things out, by the way?)

You layer so amazingly. Coming back to study. If I can't do drape etc. I do want to incorporate more drama. Will have to consider how to do it.

Hah meeee tooooo.

Wow do I ever love the first outfit. That coat is gorgeous ! Note to self to look for a ponte black wrap coat for fall. I'm kind of off my wedge sneakers - I didn't wear them at all last winter even though I really like mine too. I like the height I get too though. It's a tough one- I don't see them as trending or current , per se, but if you like them , wear them. They really look good with your leather leggings .

Jane

Great outfits! I love the blues and blacks, in 4. EF pants look super, and your red lip stick makes your face and eyes pop out.

Jaime

#1 is my favorite. Is the last one really blue or is that a filter? I think wedge sneakers are "officially" out, which is all the more reason to keep wearing yours!

Pic 4 is fantastic!! Iove the leather leggings and sneakers...so fab!

I love the way you mix blues with darks, Debs. #4 is my favourite. Nice to see you sport your new coat too.

Thanks Suz:). And yes I got the job...I updated my off topic thread:) and I see layered looks perhaps working better for you than drape. Layers can still have that crisp element I see for you

Thanks Lisa:). I'm seeing white sneakers all over the blogosphere but it's just not me so I will keep wearing these with your blessing xx

Thanks Jane xx

Shevia, I promise it's not the filter lol. I have a small but growing number of blue items that I mix with my black's .

Marble, thank you x

Thanks Angie! I'm loving the blues and adding them slowly. Unfortunately not all blues work and I've seen some beautiful items recently but they have been in a blue that's just not dark enough, almost a skate blue I think:(

Style Fan

Great looks as always Deborah. The wedge sneakers look good. I just wear things I like. #4 is my fav.

Joy

Gorgeous as ever. 1 and 4 are my favorites.

Runcarla

Your commitment to a limited palate, and distinctive style is commendable, and you do it so VERY well. I love checking in whenever, you post a WIW.

I was agreeing with you

CocoLion

So fantastic -- all! And it's great fun to see wintery outfits while I sweat in shorts and sleeveless tanks.

Lyn D.

#4 my fav of course!

catgirl

All fab! You make black look so fresh!

Oh so fab Deb...Like the others, I love your drama and I'm also digging the mix of blues in #4

Summer

Fabulous as always, Deborah. Another vote here for the gorgeous blues in 4.

Congrats on the job :). You look super stylish in your workwear. And fab styling of the harems. Do you ever wear them to your office, or just for retail/days off? They seem like they'd be a great stylish yet practical office-to-MOTG option.

Love the necklace in pic 3--it's stunning with that outfit. Like others, I think you look fab in the blue in pic 3.

And I thought you were chanelling Nordstrom models with the headless shots, hee hee.

You are really set for your winters Deb, each of these is fab and so very exceptionally You! I love your blacks and drapes, thus now I will make a compliment on your outfit nr. 4 which is blue:-). I just discovered this past winter for me the same and noticed that your sneakers have light soles, too, which are a subtle detail giving it all the just another dimension and even more fabness (bookending the necklace, your fab hair and other lighter bits in your outfit).
