Ok, well, firstly, I don't think I could think of just one as I have eclectic tastes and secondly, I make most of my own clothes anyway, so perhaps some amazing top-notch fabrics from Joel and Son in London. 2. Hmm, lets think...Maybe I wish I hadn't purged a grey blousey, and very 80's style jacket that I had when I was in my early 20's. It would be great for the trend right now. Nothing else really comes to mind. I'm glad I purged everything I did over the last few years. 3. A fit and flare chambray dress. Writing this right now has made my mind up...in the donation bag it goes tomorrow. It's always tricky to find the right style of bra to wear under and is a little bunchy round my waist. 4. Coral bag, olive trench, teal suede boots, burgundy suede boots, darkwash straight leg jeans, coral/cream/green, print summer dress, four strap snake shoes, grey asymmetric hem sweater, cognac booties... all favourites. Though to be honest I want to include loads more! 5. Short boxy sage green cotton sweater, slim BF jeans, cream belt and slippers(I'm on the sofa at the moment, but I did have cream pointy toe oxfords on earlier) jenanded on "5 Questions" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/5-questions/page/2#post-1664339 Fri, 20 May 2016 18:01:52 +0000 jenanded 1664339@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ 1. Lafayette 148 or Carla Zampatti 2. Regret getting rid of an amazing long velvet coat with a gorgeous floral pattern of red blue and bronze flowers... even though I got rid of it because I became so stout 3. What Aziraphale said - move it on - next! 4. Black 'suit' I had made last year Jeans Black Voltan pumps for work Munro sandals for walking and walking and walking Cute boho light jacket I recently bought My studs, wedding rings, watch and silver bangle! Eileen fisher silk and jersey tanks and 3/4 sleeve tops - please bring some back! Boring but a kikki k brief case- its just right for me! Realising this is a pretty boring list but the black basics mean I can roll out of bed and be at work/travel in no time; the munros mean i can walk anywhere I like; my jewellery signifies 4 generations of women in my family my husband/marriage my children and my phd; and the casual stuff changes a lot but that is where i have more fun and reflects me in the moment 5. Wearing none of the above except the jewellery... grey linen slouchy pants, grey tshirt, cocoon cardigan and sandals - but most of the other stuff is in my suitcase right now! Aziraphale on "5 Questions" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/5-questions/page/2#post-1664320 Fri, 20 May 2016 16:51:12 +0000 Aziraphale 1664320@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Fun! OK, I'll play. 1. Not off to a good start. I can't answer this question, because I rely on different brands for different kinds of garments. I suppose Rag&Bone would be the best answer I can give, although I don't currently own any of their clothes except jeans. But I've admired lots of their tops and jackets on the website. :-) 2. Pink LuLuLemon jacket with orange stitching. Purged it because it because I had nothing to wear it with at the time, and I was disillusioned with LuLu as a brand. Now I sometimes reach for it and it's not there. :-( 3. I don't even understand the question. Why would it take courage to let go of something? 4. I could answer that question with shoes only, but hmmm let's see...I guess the question is really, what's not replaceable. Much as I love my leather moto, I could find another, so I won't include that. I will pick the following: - Fluevog Libby Smiths - Fluevog Baroque Vermeers - R&B bengal stripe "Beetlejuice" pants (my new wardrobe pet) - Smoking Lily snake print skirt (image grab off web; not me!) - Fluevog Swordfish boots - Black Desigual fleur-de-lys coat - Citizens "Racer" renegade jeans - R&B army green skinnies - black Tron tee shirt that was crew gear, so can't get another one - blue Star Wars tee (also crew swag) 5. A navy and red boatneck jersey tee, black skinny jeans, huge ugly skull ring, and slippers. Will put on leather moto jacket and black ankle boots when I leave the house.  Anonymous on "5 Questions" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/5-questions/page/2#post-1664274 Fri, 20 May 2016 14:56:44 +0000 Anonymous 1664274@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ hahahaha - LynD for the win !   carter on "5 Questions" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/5-questions/page/2#post-1664272 Fri, 20 May 2016 14:47:02 +0000 carter 1664272@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ So much fun reading all the responses! 1) Eileen Fisher--at least for my non-casual wardrobe.

A pair of cropped jeans that fitted perfectly and are back on my 2016 S/S list 3. My DH ;) 4. My best fitting jeans, black loafers, leather jacket, Chanel Dress, track-pants, slippers and dressing-gown. 5. Black work-shirt and pants, slippers and reading glasses.

It's sporty casual, and nice quality. That's closer to my real life than anything else I can think of. 2. Nothing comes to mind. 3. I have a lot of things I should purge. 4. I'd probably keep some of my favorite vintage Coach bags because they don't make them anymore. Most of the rest of my stuff is replaceable. 5. Road trip to Vegas, baby! And some birding along the way. At 8pm it was still over 90F. I'm wearing the sleeveless Eddie Bauer top Angie recommended, along with cargo shorts and an old flannel shirt for AC. And socks. I took off my hiking shoes. BrieN on "5 Questions" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/5-questions#post-1664111 Fri, 20 May 2016 03:25:22 +0000 BrieN 1664111@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ 1. Not just one but I seem to be on a Kors, Joie and Current Elliott kick 2. I miss my tri-color spectator oxfords in  cream, tan and brown.  I purchased them in paris when we were first married and wore them with a brown with cream polka dots skirt (which I still have) I let the shoes go because my feet grew during pregnancy. 3. I should give the boot to my pack of hip-length, button up cardigans. They totally hang together and judge me. 4. can't. I might have to default to workout gear. 5. Wearing old yoga pants, old wildly unflattering t-shirt and new teal zip-up. Recuperation clothes, I guess. I was trying to find the softest things in my closet. rachylou on "5 Questions" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/5-questions#post-1664109 Fri, 20 May 2016 03:11:42 +0000 rachylou 1664109@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ 1. Tough. I've been on the hunt for such a brand/designer. Once upon a time it was Marc Jacobs. But I haven't found anybody since, not that's an all arounder and for more than one season. 2. I don't miss anything at the moment. My memory likes to attack me by surprise. 3. I should get rid of my grandma's bracelet sleeve coat. But once in a blue moon, it's like nothing else works... 4. My queen mum style purse and black falcon silk scarf. Both from my dad; both forever useful. Then my red 'origami' dress with long sleeves and blue Marc Jacobs peeptoe 'jean' sandals. Those are the top things I'm preserving. 5. I'm bag lady right now. I'm wearing Capri workout wear leggings and a tee - was planting tomatoes. Then it got super sunny and I threw a house dress over it. Then it got cold and I put a long, chunky cardigan over it all. Lol. Next I will add a quilt and go watch tv. Lolol! Elizabeth P on "5 Questions" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/5-questions#post-1664079 Fri, 20 May 2016 02:12:10 +0000 Elizabeth P 1664079@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Fun! 1. Can't really think of one. While I love many of my EF pieces, I've tried on many that don't work, so I think it would take a long time to make a whole wardrobe. 2. Can't think of any regrets. 3. Several lulu tops that don't really work for me. Hardly even worn but it seems like such a waste... Almost ready to let them go though. 4. Emerson fry tunic sweater, Danier leather leggings, navy and white Danier leather jackets, helmet Lang tee, black EF drape front dress, Pedro Garcia sandals and my wonderful citron Eccos :). And it's not that I don't like or love many more pieces, I just feel these are cornerstones of my style. And this is something I need to think more about... 5. When I read this post, I was wearing club Monaco cobalt silk track pants, top shop silver shoes, white BR linen tank and a white papillon cardigan. I was in conference so didn't want to post :). Now I'm in Pjs. Jaime on "5 Questions" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/5-questions#post-1664078 Fri, 20 May 2016 02:12:05 +0000 Jaime 1664078@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Oh very interesting. I should think about this more but... 1. Tempted to say Celine although I have never tried any of her clothes on my body. Zara is also tempting because it keeps up with my fickle nature. Lemaire? No, this requires more thought. 2. In collage I used to carry around this embroidered book bag from a flea market. I sort of wish I had that and a thrifted coat just as historical mementos of my early thrifting days (when I had a tiny closet also). 3. Too many things to mention. 4. Well summer version - black and white fisherman sandals, black, white and citron pointy toe shoes, navy nike knee length shorts, pleione cross over navy top, two thrifted dresses, cropped jeans, grey crossover top, and two bags one big and one medium both cross body. Not interested in this plan though. 5. Yoga clothes. It is very early morning and that is my next activity.

Brand - I could probably outfit myself completely from Sears or Winners - most of my clothes are Sears/Jessica, Ralph Lauren, Ann Taylor, and Jones of New York. However, if money was no object I would go Ralph Lauren from the top of his line. He gets my body, and I like his aesthetic. 2. Regret - during a closet clean-out before I left home for uni, I donated a brown tweed pencil skirt and fitted jacket with mink collar that used to belong to my Aunt Mary. She was a single career woman with an enviable figure and a glamourous wardrobe of 50's and 60's fabness! 3. Needs to go - my favourite racing kit is looking pretty shabby. The white is actually kind of grey, but I don't want to pitch it before I have a replacement. 4. 5-10 things: dark wash and white jeans, grey work trousers, dark tweed blazer, striped-T's, grey sweater, white button down, black jacquard trench coat, black pea coat, cognac brogues. 5.

Mark and Estel - made in the USA, comfortable, and trendy 2. My pink and black plaid skirt from high school. Not that I would wear it not, but its what started my obsession with fashion.  3. My buttoned Blowfish boots. The zipper is wrecked but I love them and can't find a replacement 4. My Eileen Fisher suede ankle booties, Mark and Estel Black Knit Dress (I don't have an unlimited budget so I bought them on sale with code 50MEL), Black tights (I suppose I could just cheaply rebuy these but they are a staple for me), tailored leather jacket from Marshall's (best one I've found is in Santa Monica), and my dark wash Hudson Jeans.  5. Knee length navy blue dress from Nastygal and a cashmere sweater Irina on "5 Questions" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/5-questions#post-1664006 Thu, 19 May 2016 23:28:27 +0000 Irina 1664006@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Brand:COS Regret: white safari jacket I bought in Paris and let go when it became too tight. Hang on: too many scarves 5-10 items from my wardrobe: Cole Haan oxfords, Joe's jeans, COS sweaters, pear earrings (gift from my husband), black wool coat from Zara, white shirt from COS and favorite scarf from Club Monaco.

What brand/designer do you think personifies you the best? Hmm. I'd go with Boden for tops and Loft for trousers. What’s one thing you’ve purged from your wardrobe you wish you had now? What’s something you’re hanging on to, but sort of wish you had the courage to let go of? No regrets. I have a stack of hand made things I wish I'd let go though. But I'm pretty sentimental. If you had to choose 5-10 things from your wardrobe (including shoes & bags) to keep and you had to get rid of everything else, what would you keep? What are you wearing RIGHT THIS SECOND? I'd keep a Chadwick's long skirt, aubergine wool coat, navy Boden tops, target tall boots, Sole society Emmas, Loft trousers, bird scarf, wedding ring. Wearing Eddie Bauer coral lacy tee and Aforementioned skirt today.

J Crew although for high end I'm loving Jason Wu, Max Mara, DVF, and Tracy Reese. 2. I regret purging my grandmothers aprons. 3. I cannot get myself to purge the first sweater sweater I knit or my first coach purse. They sit in my closet where I never use them or look at them except twice a year when I take them down, think I should toss them but then end up putting them back in their place on my shelf. 4. Huh? Keep only 5-10 items from my closet? I couldn't get through a week of workouts with so few items let alone get dressed for work! I suppose this is about current favorites, but I have more than 10. 5. I'm wearing AG Nikki jeans, a J Crew white long sleeve lace front crew neck tee, a teal merino wool cardigan sweater, my bangle bracelets, my fit bit, my favorite watch, and my blue glasses and a pair of socks. Hmm, if you look at question 4, and count the number of items I'm wearing today, I'm wearing 8. I had shoes and a light jacket earlier bringing the total to 10 and that didn't include my workout gear from this morning. See, I'm doomed. 10 is nowhere near enough! shedev on "5 Questions" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/5-questions#post-1663981 Thu, 19 May 2016 21:53:52 +0000 shedev 1663981@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ 1.Brand Rick Owens 2. no regrets 3. could toss a few pairs of shoes 4.

What brand/designer do you think personifies you the best? 1. This is way too hard. In total fantasy I like YSL and The Row and Max Mara, but don't own any so I might not even like them. But I have every magpie tendency and also brands shift their aesthetic over seasons. What’s one thing you’ve purged from your wardrobe you wish you had now? 2. I don't really miss anything I've purged that much. Minor pangs maybe but that's it. What’s something you’re hanging on to, but sort of wish you had the courage to let go of? 3. I have a few dresses I haven't worn yet that are fantasy items but I don't want to get rid of them. If you had to choose 5-10 things from your wardrobe (including shoes & bags) to keep and you had to get rid of everything else, what would you keep? 4. NFW I can have that few. But I am really feeling the cropped skinny jeans this spring. What are you wearing RIGHT THIS SECOND? Cropped skinny Citizens jeans, white crinkle button front shirt (Fresh Laundry), Reiss light gray silk jacket with white spots (same shape as find, completely different color), white leather Cole Haan driving shoes; and Aritzia blue cape sweater (sitting outside and pretending it's warm). milehighstyle (Linda) on "5 Questions" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/5-questions#post-1663940 Thu, 19 May 2016 19:47:11 +0000 milehighstyle (Linda) 1663940@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <ol> <li>What if you had to choose ONE brand (money no object) to buy clothes from, what would it be?

A cardigan that was a nice gift from my husband. He grumbled when I said I wanted to pass it on to a new home. It is really nice and apparently I look nice in it (!), I just don't wear it. If you had to choose 5-10 things from your wardrobe (including shoes & bags) to keep and you had to get rid of everything else, what would you keep? New Chelsea boots, camper ankle boots, camper sandals, extremely soft and nicely cut tshirt from Anthro, swingy blue jumper from Jigsaw, Anthro white shirt, Hiut Denim jeans, yoga trousers and long yoga vest from Sweaty Betty. Cross body leather bag from Toast. What are you wearing RIGHT THIS SECOND? Yoga trousers, favourite old jumper and yoga vest.

Vince 2. nothing 3. about 10 pair of jeans that are about a size too small - that I keep assuming will fit shortly. And haven't yet. And a bunch of purses I never use and don't really want but feel guilty about getting rid of.  4. My  Smythe jackets, 3 or 4 leather jackets, Vince trousers, jeans, a few pair of shoes, some CE t's.  Oops, that's more than 10.  Oh, and an EF silk asymmetric tunic. Oh, and some jewellery of course. Oh and a bag or two. Oh oh, I'm attached to more things than I realized .  5.
