WIW: New Orange Sweater - YouLookFab Forum

Yesterday Mr. SF and I went on an outing. We dropped Garthie off at the groomers and went to a mall for the first time in two years. Exciting!
I wore my new orange sweater and blue jeans. I am trying to figure out the best way to style it. I tucked the front in, and that seemed to work. In the picture, it looks wrinkly, so I straightened it out.

We did some shopping at Sherway Mall in West Toronto. I didn't buy anything, but I did try on a few things at Banana Republic. There is an olive jumpsuit that is calling my name. Hard to resist. BR has some great pieces right now.

Thank you, Angie! It has been a long time since we have gone anywhere.

I would steal that sweater in a heartbeat! It looks fabulous on you!

And Garth looks KILLER DAPPER

Thank you, Carol!!!
Angie, Garth does look gorgeous, and he is very busy. Never stops moving. I am surprised I got a picture.

Garth looks ready for a outing. You look fab in your orange sweater and blue jeans. I like the tucking.

MsMaven

You look great. I find orange difficult to wear, however, you look fabulous in this one. Might change my mind and try again.

Suz

Gorgeous sweater and gorgeous you! I love it! What a thrill to go to a real mall.

Garth looks spectacular (and also, he knows it, right?)

Every time I look at the current BR offerings I think of you. Buy some stuff!! In all seriousness, it really is calling your name and you might as well. Even though the colourways don't work for me, personally, I love that they have gone back to their roots this year. And I did manage to buy at least one thing. And it's excellent.

Looks great both ways! Garthie is fabulous as well .

Another lovely and 'toasty' sweater on the forum. I like it untucked as well as tucked. Garthie is BEAUTIFUL. Reminds me of two Chow-chows I had long ago. I gather he is a Samoyed - I think I have asked you before :

Ok. I need to reintroduce orange into my wardrobe!

bella

Gorgeous color on you and your furry baby is very handsome.

Mirjana

Beautiful orange sweater on you. I like with jeans and I like both way,. Your dog is so lovely.

Bijou

Garthie!!! He is gorgeous, and so are you in your burnt orange. I really like your sweater tucked. I am sure that the olive jumpsuit will look fabulous on you.

Style Fan you are san inspiration in how you carefully add items to your wardrobe. I am trying to adopt this attitude to new additions to my wardrobe in 2022, I'd rather miss out on something than make a hasty purchase that I regret.

Your new sweater is a particularly nice shade of orange, neither citrusy or pumpkin like. I prefer it untucked although both ways look nice. Garthie is beautiful!

Love that color- and I've been happy with BRs direction too this year!
Awww such a beautiful boi
*hugs Garthie*

Helena

That looks fantastic on you!! The perfect shade of orange for you and a beautiful cut. Love Sherway ... Hope you enjoyed being out and about!

kkards

What a great color on you. I think it looks great in both the styled and the unstyled version.

Agree re BR, there is one around the corner from me and I popped in a couple of weeks ago and was really impressed with what they had and the quality seemed really good.

nemosmom

What a beautiful color on you, SF!! Orange is speaking to me, too - so is Banana! Love their new (old) direction!

kellygirl

Ooh, Garthie is stealing the show! Love that orange on you and it's spectacular tucked. I feel the opposite about BR this year--at least in their styling photos.

Jaime

The orange top looks great tucked in. Congratulations on finally getting out. Garthie looks positively regal.

Brooklyn

Fab colour and neckline on you.

Garthie is equally fabulous!

RobinF

Love that sweater! The color is great!

Thank you so much, everyone! It has been a hectic time for us. My stepson and his wife just had their second baby.

Star, Garthie is a Samoyed. He is my fourth one. He never stops moving from when he wakes up until he goes to sleep.

JAileen

This is really your color. YLF!

Jonesy

Okay, your burnt orange sweater is fab (I like it both tucked and untucked), but Garthie and his immaculate, fluffy coat is the star here--what a gorgeous boy :). Congrats on being out and about at the mall!

Jonesy, Garthie does steal the show whenever we go out. Fortunately, he is a very friendly boy.

Sal

You and Garth are both looking fine!!

I could see an olive jumpsuit working for you - great for easy outings or at home. I have had really good use from my jumpsuit - well over 30 wears - and it still makes me happy.

Sal, it is helpful to hear from someone who has a jumpsuit. They look like an easy way to look pulled together.
