Fashion Favorites (w/e 9/9/23)...

My favorite inspiration outfits this week from online browsing/shopping and 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. I read them all and especially enjoy reading why you like an outfit or why you don't and how you might tweak an outfit, or what individual pieces you like.

#1   Short poncho


#2  Long asymmetrical poncho...except for the shoes, this is right up my alley


#3  Now that's a shawl...LOVE this!  Favorite


#4  Love the jeans


#5  Ditch the rust tee, put on the sweater, love the shoes


#6  Love the jewelry, too


#7


#8  The bag ruins it IMO, otherwise it's beautiful...love the texture mix


#9  Never would I wear strappy white sandals with this beautiful dress...fabulous darling


#10  I want the metallic jeans and the sneaks


#11  Even though I'm not a fan of animal print, I love this one, but remove the orange turtleneck, please


#12(a)   Effortless, classy...great base for almost any jacket/blazer


#12(b)  These are Italian cotton cords, which apparently makes them worth #325!!


#13  So feminine


#14



#15  Johnny Was burnout


#16   Pants a bit too long to my eye, but what a beautiful color combination


I hope everyone has a wonderful, safe, stylish week!

#15 does it for me!  Love the style, love the color. This is my kind of top!

#2 Chic

 

# Pretty shawl.  I hate those big legged pants tucked into the boots, though. I'd like that outfit with a sleek, mid or antique distressed, classic slim leg western jean tucked into those boots.

 

#4 Yes, cute jeans, and pulled together nicely in the whole look.

 

#5 My least favorite look, all around. The sweater is a pretty color, though.

 

#6 I like white. That said...those bells with white boots look corny and dated here to me.

 

#7 Pretty

 

#8 The color is yummy, and "texture mix", as you say, also nice. Yes, that bag's a hard nope for me...with this outfit, with any outfit.

 

#10 The whole look works for her. The metallic jeans are a little something different to a classic, sporty look. I love the jacket and bag

#13 Very Nicole Kidman

# Love that coat

 

Thanks again for posting @MacDuFF 

Have a good week! 👗🧥👖👜👠

I love this edition of Fashion Favorites.  Everything is so wearable and real. 

 

love #3 but I'd wear skinny jeans tucked into the boots.

 

#4 is ME.  That's my uniform.  Blazer/white tee/jeans.  DONE.  I like this particular moto inspired jeans.  

 

#8 is such a cool, classy, upscale look.  I'm a big fan of monochromatic dressing and pastels in the winter.  So #8 really calls out to me.  Yes, get rid of that tacky bag.  

 

#10 is another classic jeans look.  Love the crisp white sneakers.   And the Gucci Soho bag.

#1 and #2 are my favorites but I also love #6, #8 w/ a different handbag and #9 w/ added jewelery and different shoes.

@MacDuFF   OK, I'm still laughing over your WIW post and the ruana fiasco. 😄

This week's favorites of mine are:

#5-Pink pants? Yes, please.

#7-I only like the colorful print in this outfit, but not the outfit itself.

#8-Tonal blue on blue is so pretty. I agree with @MacDuFF , the Dior bag ruins it for me.

#12-I really like the texture in this white blouse. It's so interesting and not just your basic blouse.

#15-Love the Johnny Was printed blouse. I would definitely wear this one.
Thanks and have a great day. 🌺

Hi @amyb   I forgot to let you know that I couldn't find the blazer you asked about a few weeks ago...memory, first thing to go?

I like the cream polo style sweater in #6. I would wear it with my medium wash straight leg jeans and my tan loafers. 

 

I like the check blazer in #10, but I don't care for any of the other pieces.
