WIW : Stripes - YouLookFab Forum

It's FRIYAY! Well here in Aus anyway:). Hope everyone has had a fantastic week. So looking forward to my Saturday sleep in!!

I'm doing a lot of shopping my closet at the moment and I'm watching the Spring styles arriving. It's a little hard to think about Spring clothes when it's still so cold...but I'm doing my
best lol

I have picked up two new items for the warmer months that I thought I would show you.

#1/2 is a lovely striped hi/lo top with a 3/4 sleeve. Neckties are trending here so I thought I'd give one a try. I love stripes but find very few striped items that really excite me. This one I love! Not sure why.

#3 Crepe tunic that I cannot wait to wear. Similar to one Angie highlighted recently. It may be a while before it's warm enough for this one

Thanks for looking.

How's everyone doing with their new season updates?

I like the top + necktie look very much! You alwasys look so elegant, Deb. New season updates? Oh, no, please, I do not event want to think about Autumn!

Terrific outfit! The stripe top is interesting... not run-of-the-mill. I can see why you love it. That crepe tunic will be amazing on you.

Asymmetric, diagonal stripes always more interesting(and flattering), love this one, is it layered over a longer tank(I know you often do that:-)) or it's own doubled hem there? I always love a great bl&w outfit, and you did it so very well!

I'm loving the striped top look. The narrow scarf is cute too. Alluring.

Karie

I love the way you're wearing the scarf with that gorgeous striped top.
With my fall/winter updates, I am trying to be very specific. I have spent this last few weeks before the new school year starts going though my wardrobe and reassessing what I will wear/what needs to go, and what I would like to purchase. I've been taking it item by item, and so far, so good.

Cerinda

Smashing pieces! How terrific the high contrast pattern is on you! Love the trendy skinny scarf.

Fall planning? What's that? I have my hands full with just arranging an urban, hot weather, 10-day holiday capsule. No, not going carry-on.

Love the top on you! Maybe you like it because the stripes say graphic/dramatic, not preppy? Also like how the v-neck is "framed" in black.

Love it Deborah, great to see you again That tunic looks really interesting, you'll rock it.

And I'm with Cerinda... no interest in even thinking about fall yet. NAS purchases are firmly put away so I can forget about them and be excited when i see them, in about another month.

Fab looks - a little mod, no? I love that tunic - reminds me of the one DonnaF has.

Windchime

Nice to "see" you again! Your new top looks great, and the scarf is fun and right on trend. I love the tunic; it is right up your sartorial alley! I added one to my wish list when Angie posted about them.

Love both of them! Two great items that make fabulous looks.

Ok. I'm impressed. I need to study what you did here...I wilt in the face of stripes...

That striped top looks great with the Motto jacket, and the narrow scarf sends the eye up and down for a flattering lengthening effect!
I am heading out to the shops next week after a 6 week break- looking for some straight or flared denim crops for S/S.

Elle

Love the striped top!. It's so cool with the diagonal stripes and the assymetry. I can see why it appealed to you - it's not your ordinary striped top.

Lynne

Love to the power of love! I love that the lines of the top, to my eye, echo your fab hair.

Sally

That is a great tunic...you wear it well.

Eliza

Love the stripes and composition of the outfit. Your looks are put together and showcase how the right pieces in combination can go almost anywhere. Great outfit and can't wait to see the tunic when it warms up.

Greyscale

Such great stripes. It's like regular stripes, but with your own unique twist (or diagonal, as the case may be). That jacket is great too.

Firecracker (Sharan)

The stripe top is fantastic on you, Deborah. I think the diagonal and the irregular stripes both make it interesting, and not the traditional look. I prefer my stripes with a little non-traditional element, too. The neck tie has such an impact on this outfit, too, giving it an extra bit of drama. The jacket works beautifully over the longer top.
Great new airy tunic, too. That will be a gorgeous and fun piece for summer.
