Thanks so much for all the YLF love, everyone!
Jayne, in looking through the photos of the past couple of years, I have learned a few things:
1. I was wearing my skirts too long -- below the knee, and not in a fun fashion-forward midi way! When I got the skirts above the knee, things got a lot better!
2. I was wearing dark suits, and wearing the pieces together. Boring, boring, boring. Once I started wearing separates, things got better!
3. The Halogen pencil skirt: I bought it in 7 colors and it totally changed my fashion life! Would you believe I had never worn pencil skirts before? And now they are practically my uniform!
4. FIT! If it doesn't fit, it won't look fab! Note that the jacket in the first photo above is too big and I was trying to make it work with a belt. It's been a continuing struggle, but I am getting better about resisting the allure of the fab pieces that don't quite fit!
5. Color -- I have always loved color but usually did just one color with black. I have really learned from Angie and all of you how much fun it is to have multiple colors in an outfit! As Stacey and Clinton say, "they don't have to match, they just have to go!"
Those are a few off the top of my head, anyway!
