Fashion Favorites (w/e 8/21/21)...

My favorite outfits this week from some of my favorite fashion bloggers. I couldn't (or wouldn't) necessarily wear any of these, but I like the way they've been styled or some particular component of the outfit.  I might put an accessory on my shopping list.  Maybe the outfit inspires me to put together something similar from my wardrobe or to try different color combinations.  Sometimes, I just love the whole look.  Thought I'd share and hope you enjoy... 
 
As always, thank you so much for your comments on these threads!

 

@barrel racer    With a little imagination, I can see women of several sizes wearing some of these outfits in their size.  If you check-in each week, I post outfits fairly often from plus size bloggers.
 
@spiderw    I'm having a dress moment or two myself!
 
@Foxxee   I have difficulty with transitional footwear.  I default to sneaks or mules.  Agree with you that items like long sleeves are not great with really summery sandals.  But what do you think of sandals with a higher vamp?  Such as in #15...I have two pairs like that...picture that outfit with a long sleeved cardi/duster in, say, navy, which would make it similar to the one last week.
 
@okaywitheasypay    I'm fairly tall, and I don't like dusters for the same reason you don't...most of them look like bathrobes on me.

#9 is so unusual-really a standout!

I think it's prettySmiley Happy

I like so many this week I can't keep track of the numbers! I do agree with you about the belt on #12. It just doesn't look right to me with that dress. Is it because the belt is too skinny or it's sitting too low? Or is it just that the dress doesn't need a belt?👗

I love numbers one, three and six tops!  The number 12 dress is lovely and I  like all the colors and style, it looks comfortable.  The number 9 dress is elegant and reminds me of something Grace Kelly would have worn as a young actress in a movie!  

 

All in all a very nice fashion show!!!!

6 & 7 - Love both of these.  I wore that type of top when I lived in SoCal many years ago.  Unfortunately those days are behind me.  Putting a blouse under the vest would ruin the outfit.

 

#11 - That is more my style now.  Love the shoes and bag.

@MacDUFF   #14 could easily have been mee....I like to wear all white frequently and similar style.  Wearing white makes me happy.... so, of course, my favorite.  You have a great week too!

Lots of good ones this week!  Love the prints on the dresses especially #9 and #12.  Unfortunately I haven’t needed a dress since pre-Covid.  #11 and #13 are the two that I could see myself wearing.

I like the top in #1 and the black outfit in #7.  Don't care about #12. The pattern would be good in a shirt, but too much going on in the dress.

@MacDUFF I so enjoy these posts of yours!  I look but rarely comment.  Hope you don't mind me sharing my 2 cents.

Nos. 2 through 7 : thumbs down.   The rest are lovely!
