WIW during the week - YouLookFab Forum

Lovely Fabbers, it’s Friday evening here, and it is super it is the weekend.

A few WIW from the week.

My favourite was today’s outfit in 3 which chimes with Angie’s blog on the ‘90’s earlier today. A slip and knit outfit. Plus a pile of black beads.

2 is keeping it real - fluffy hair and dark circles! But the fab striped top (Prada via Oxfam) I’m really happy with - thank you particularly to Suz for your encouragement to keep! Sorry the jacket wasn’t on quite straight!

Then a new to me via Oxfam blue shirt (7 and 8) for Armistice day - I went to the war memorial on Sloane Square, London with two colleagues for 11. It was very moving.

5 is a skirt I am enjoying, D&G via Oxfam, really easy to wear and the pink roll neck is super comfortable.

Thank you for looking, all comments and suggestions very welcome.

KILLER all Round! I'm wowed

I'm seeing a playful side come through - subtle, but there. Fun!

The stripe and plaid mix in #2 is sublime! LOVE the bias cut skirt and fab poppy pin.

#5 is the best Jane Style Surprise! SOOO stinking cute! Petites wear shorter skirts to perfection. Case in point......

#8 is Classic Chic Professional Jane!

Love, love your skirt' outfits and pattern mixing in #2! You look lovely as always ( what dark circles? )!

Runcarla

This elegant/classic vibe you’ve been embracing recently is beautiful and suits you to a T. Just looking at your WIW posts calms me down!

I picked out #3 as my fav before I read your comments that it was your fav too!weird thinking of London being so quiet.You must find it really strange when you are so used to the hustle and bustle.

Gosh Jane I LOVE 5! That skirt looks amazing on you. Nice roll neck too.

Liesbeth

All of these are so great! You find the best colors and style them so wonderfully.

Joy

These are each special outfits. My favorite is #2 with the soft neutrals
and pattern mixing. The sweater is perfect and interesting with the jacket. I also like your coral phone. Such a pretty pop of color.

I love the quiet pairing of the jacket and the Prada sweater . And the skirt in #5 is terrific - very New Look!

Bijou

Agree with all of the above - these are all fab - beautiful colours, texture and classic designs that really showcase you.
#5 is my favourite!

I also see the playful, creative edge in your recent looks. I will credit you and your new Oxfam finds! Also love your coat with the peaked collar. These are all super!

Jane

Thank you all for all your lovely comments,

Thank you KellyGirl. I felt very comfortable in 3. I am thinking of recreating this look again and have ordered a non mohairy type cardigan to see if it might work. Mohair is great but it is a little itchy.

Hello Angie, thank you for the lovely comments. The skirt in 5 sits so well and easily. The bias cut skirt is an All Saints slip dress and has a jumper too. The fabric is gorgeous. It is the first time I wore it for work and felt very happy in it. The beads made the top feel less open and exposed. My style needs to be little softer these days, so it is really lovely to hear that it comes across. Thank you.

Hello Slim Cat. I love skirts! They are my go to thing!

Thank you RunCarla, I am enjoying dressing these days, and it is really lovely to have an injection of quite a few new items, jumpers, skirts and coats to play with.

Thank you CardiffGirl. 3 was lovely to wear, I haven't worn it very often but worn it in at the office last week for the first time, I think more wears are coming up.

Thank you Jenni, the skirt is going to be a workhorse. I did feel ever so slightly like one of the characters in ScoobyDoo, but setting that aside, it was nice to wear!

Thank you Leisbeth, that is so kind of you.

Thank you Joy, the jumper and the jacket were really nice to wear together. The phone cover is super easy to find in my bag being such a bright colour!

Thank you LisaP, I love the New Look look!

Thank you Bijou!

Thank you Shevia! I do now enjoy the Oxfam website. There are some gems I think lurking there ready for a new home.

These are great! I'm going with 1,3 and 5 as my favorites!

Hello Angie, it is similar to 1 but with a light woolly wide roll neck jumper. It was from maybe 2 years ago. They are great pieces. Wash well and don’t need ironing if hung out soon after washing.

And these jumpers are slightly shorter than mine.

Brooklyn

Looking fab Jane. Love the pattern mix in 2 and the playful silhouette in 5. Very jealous of your Oxfam finds.

Lynne

I can see why you love the slip and cardi! These are all lovely, well done. Your remembrance day outfit is my secong favourite.

Thanks, Jane! I've had a client in some of those dresses and they are fab! I will make them top picks.
