I'm over big obvious appliques and plastic stuff stuck all over the neckline. (Fortunately most of the designers seem to be over that too...it was more in last fall.) I'm over skinny jeans and leggings without a skirt over them. I never thought that look was a good one, but that's just me personally!

I'm really getting into midi skirts...I've always liked them but now I'm really looking for nice midi skirts and dresses to feature in my wardrobe. I'm also really into vintage hats! I love hunting them down in antique stores and at estate sales...when you find a good one that's kept well over the decades it's priceless, and they look great with the modernized 40s/50s stuff I like to wear!

Oh...I'm also into high-waisted anything. Pencil skirts, trousers, flare-leg jeans...yeah, bring it on! The high waist looks good on me but it's hard to find a piece that looks stylish and modern and not "mom jeans."

High Five, Suz! That's what I would say, plus the "Thanks, Angie!!"

Also, I'm over low rise or too tight jeans - from the young SAs who feel that if you can zip it, that's your size

I really getting into jeans with some comfort in rise and size.

I'm (at least temporarily) over skirts and into shorts this summer. Possibly even going into fall. I recently cut my skirt collection in half!

I'm over complicated designs, but really into simple streamlining.

I'm over blue and green toenail polish, but really into pearly white.

I'm over denim skirts, but really into non-denim midis.

I'm over sandals, but really into peep toe booties.

I'm not over my skirts, but I am REALLY into shorts and trousers.

How about you, dress lover?

Have to add another! Not to alarm those of you who like my long curls but... I think I'm over my (fairly) long hair at the moment and am really into the idea of cutting it shorter. It's becoming hard to manage ><

Oh, what April said! *laughs*

Hmmm, let's see... these are hard for me to think of because I usually evolve while still integrating standbys into my look.

I'm (kind of) over accessorizing with only diamonds and silver metals and getting into other accessories, especially polished semi-precious stone pieces.

I will have to keep thinking!

Not meaning to hijack thread, but. . .

Yes, Aida - I think you'd be adorable in shorter hair.

Have you seen Sally at Alreadypretty.com's curly haired transformation? from medium long to bob length, and now to short over a few months time. It just kept getting more flattering the shorter she went, and it could happen to you too

(I haven't seen her hair transformation but I have had my hair from super duper long to super duper short and everything in between I'm thinking something shoulder-length this go around, but here's me in a curly bob from around 6 years ago. Planning to go back to that next spring, but we'll see!)

Looove that saucy short bob, Aida! Reminds me of Yublocka's hair here on YLF.

Okay, back to the question:

I'm over ruffles but getting into menswear touches.

Over brown but getting into bright, primary colors.

Over florals but getting into PLAID, checks, graphic prints.

ETA: I forgot to add a big one! I'm over cardigans but getting into boxy pullover sweaters!

I'm over Aida's long curls, but I'm really getting into the idea of Aida's short bob! Okay, that's only half true - the long curls are still awesome.

Since I'm already talking about hair ...

I'm over hiding under hats and am determined to get into taming my unkempt hair on a regular basis.

I'm over things that swamp me and into looking for something just right.

I'm over wishing heels suited my lifestyle and embracing flats (and maybe a pair of wedges for under the bootlegs - can't be too pedantic about these things!). Thanks for the encouragement Angie.

I'm over pointy-toe shoes/kitten heels, but I'm really getting into boots.

I'm over knits + cardigans, but I'm really getting into blouses and tunics.

I'm SO over skirts, and am all about perfect-fitting dresses.
