I really enjoy having nice things about me and putting them together well, and then just feeling appropriately dressed. Good question! Great answers!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-____-person/page/3#post-1891149 Sun, 18 Feb 2018 08:53:26 +0000 Aurore 1891149@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's such a hard question! I'm definitely a shoe person, but I would probably also qualify for "blazer person" and "earrings person". And "hiking gear and gadgets person". </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-____-person/page/3#post-1891147 Sun, 18 Feb 2018 08:48:49 +0000 Caro in Oz 1891147@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All my life I've been a toppers &amp; shoes person. I'd LOVE to become a tops persons as these are the hardest for me </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-____-person/page/3#post-1891118 Sun, 18 Feb 2018 05:09:43 +0000 Dianna 1891118@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am a shoe person first, then a dress person, a jewelry person, and a stripes person. But my first love, since I was a little child, it's dresses. Just like Suz remember all her favorite shoes since she was a kid, I remember all my favorite dresses since the age of two or three. Shoe love was an acquired love in my late teens and early twenties. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-____-person/page/3#post-1891116 Sun, 18 Feb 2018 04:50:56 +0000 Janet 1891116@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don’t have them all in Finds, but I dare say this is the closet of a Shoe Person.<br /> (In my defense, the bottom left has some of my husband’s shoes — he has some shoe storage in his side of the closet and it spills over into mine. But some of my sandals are up in storage for the season — I’ll switch them out with the tall boots when April rolls around. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-____-person/page/3#post-1891114 Sun, 18 Feb 2018 04:47:48 +0000 Janet 1891114@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOL I realized that I am also a graphic tee person. Y’all are gonna laugh at this... my collection in the photos. A couple are in the laundry, and another are dedicated sleepwear so in my pj drawer. Plus I have a stack in a storage box in the basement of ones I don’t intend to wear but want to keep for some crazy nostalgia reason. Some of these go back to my college radio days (I spy one that dates to 1984), but I still wear them. </p> <p>I went to a show a couple of nights ago and had to stop myself from getting another tee. When I saw St Vincent recently, I was pleasantly surprised that her merch table had knit beanies — royal blue with “Fear the Future” on them. I wear it when I hike on cold days. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-____-person/page/3#post-1891100 Sun, 18 Feb 2018 04:18:40 +0000 karen13 1891100@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love all these collections. I’m with LaPed - definitely a gear person. I wear it almost every day. “Will work for 3layer Gortex!” I wish I could buy stock in Patagonia. I have a few things in Finds.</p> <p>Now I’m working on adding some fashion to the function, </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-____-person/page/3#post-1891094 Sun, 18 Feb 2018 03:40:06 +0000 Jaime 1891094@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am a COLLECTING person !&nbsp;<br />Put me in a new second hand shop and generally I am interested first in shoes, second in jackets, and then everything else. I always eyeball handbags, jewelry and sunglasses. Dresses and then skirts. Jeans and trousers although those are much harder to find. I am least interested in shirts and blouses, which is not to say I won't look. Sweaters only if I have lots of time. Have I missed anything? Let's put it like this, given the opportunity, I will look at every item in a second hand store and if there is anything worth while I will probably find it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-____-person/page/3#post-1891080 Sun, 18 Feb 2018 02:45:25 +0000 deb 1891080@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>shoe person, here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-____-person/page/3#post-1891077 Sun, 18 Feb 2018 02:31:09 +0000 Molly Mac 1891077@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shoes in all their glorious diversity-boots, booties, heels of all heights, open and closed toe. I love them all. I am currently searching for white bucks. So far I can only find them in mens' sizes. If anyone has a good lead, please let me know. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-____-person/page/3#post-1890902 Sat, 17 Feb 2018 16:40:41 +0000 cindysmith 1890902@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd say I'm a bit of a shoe person. Most specifically, boots and slip-on sneaker person. I used to be a high heel statement shoe person, but that makes no sense for my lifestyle these days, so now its boots and sneakers. As evidenced by the finds (which include some historical items as well as all current, but not some recent acquisitions LOL) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-____-person/page/3#post-1890896 Sat, 17 Feb 2018 16:26:55 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 1890896@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm. I'm jeans, cardigan, stripes. (Yikes, boring...)</p> <p>Of course really I'm a book person so anything in my life that enables/doesn't prevent that is fine </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-____-person/page/3#post-1890864 Sat, 17 Feb 2018 15:36:46 +0000 Angie 1890864@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The Shoe People are in good company... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-____-person/page/3#post-1890833 Sat, 17 Feb 2018 14:59:34 +0000 Bonnie 1890833@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>While building my wardrobe, I have gone through many different persons and now I am a layering top person. This was a capsule that definitely needed beefing up and it's finally getting it's day. Thirteen of these layering tops are new in the past year.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-____-person/page/3#post-1890829 Sat, 17 Feb 2018 14:52:28 +0000 krishnidoux 1890829@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So many humoristic as well as astute descriptors here! It's so fun to read.&nbsp;<br />I'm a footwear person is what I want to answer... but my current boot styling journey brings me to think it might not be all me, it might be due to my climate. When I lived in warmer places, footwear was still important, but not so much as it is now.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-____-person/page/3#post-1890808 Sat, 17 Feb 2018 14:14:34 +0000 kkards 1890808@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>love this&nbsp;thread</p> <p>i'm&nbsp;definitely a shoe person....with a sweater problem....i love bags, but don't tend to buy as many...</p> <p>finds are just the subcatagory of boots...and yes all have been worn in the last 30 days! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-____-person/page/3#post-1890790 Sat, 17 Feb 2018 13:49:47 +0000 Roxanna 1890790@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this thread! I never thought of the concept of a "topper" person, but I definitely am one. I am a<br /> - topper person<br /> - sweater person (like tulle, I adore cashmere) </p> <p>But most of all I am a shawl person. I likely have over 50 - cashmere in rainbow colours and baby alpaca with leather fringe and Indian wool with Rajasthani patterns and silk ombre... They make me feel exotic, elegant and cozy at the same time.</p> <p>Oh, and scarves too </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-____-person/page/3#post-1890746 Sat, 17 Feb 2018 11:18:19 +0000 Style Fan 1890746@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am also a jewellery person.&nbsp; But I still put toppers first.&nbsp; That was a hard choice.&nbsp; This is a small subsection of my jewellery collection. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-____-person/page/3#post-1890723 Sat, 17 Feb 2018 06:15:35 +0000 Kate 1890723@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Coats, hands down. They have a gravitational pull for me. And I have lots of them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-____-person/page/2#post-1890721 Sat, 17 Feb 2018 06:10:16 +0000 tulle 1890721@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm a dyed-in-the-wool cashmere sweater girl, and have been since high school, when my mother handed down a couple of her beauties to me.&nbsp; The luscious colors (I have them in almost every shade except oranges and yellows) and heavenly softness and warmth comfort me like nothing else when I'm cold, ill, or just feeling low.&nbsp; I love them all: <br />thin, light cashmere tees from J.Crew,&nbsp; indestructible vintage Scottish pullovers,&nbsp; oversized men's sweaters from thrift shops. I have cashmere knitted pants, scarves, socks and gloves, too, so I can be swathed from head to toe in Winter.&nbsp; For Summer, I have a few fine cashmere/cotton&nbsp; blend cardigans. When I travel, I feel secure if I have a cashmere or two in my bag. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-____-person/page/2#post-1890716 Sat, 17 Feb 2018 05:40:18 +0000 Barbara Diane 1890716@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jewelry, definitely. I have some from at least pre-teen on. Mostly fun to semiprecious. Purchased, sample sales, inherited, thrifted, made by myself or my mom, etc. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-____-person/page/2#post-1890715 Sat, 17 Feb 2018 05:22:01 +0000 Jenni NZ 1890715@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Go Rachy!

No. I’m a sock person. My socks overwhelm all else. They’re not even interesting. I see socks at the grocery and will get a pair... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-____-person/page/2#post-1890693 Sat, 17 Feb 2018 03:44:18 +0000 Echo 1890693@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shoes, no question. I enjoy bags and tried to be a bag person for a while, so I built up a nice collection, but I plan my outfits around my shoes. I really enjoy toppers, but a very specific kind. I like longer, statement (indoor) jackets, and they aren't easy to find. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-____-person/page/2#post-1890690 Sat, 17 Feb 2018 03:31:08 +0000 Lynn 1890690@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am a top person now being a topper person </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-____-person/page/2#post-1890689 Sat, 17 Feb 2018 03:17:41 +0000 Jenni NZ 1890689@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Why have I only just seen this thread?! World-famous on the forum! Just been out to a dry cleaners and had a haircut and bought... 2 pairs socks. I'd like to say being a shoe person doesn't make me unaware that I already have "enough". More than. It's a small weakness/frivolity and Staysfit was very kind this morning suggesting I was likely caring and careful and not to be guilty if I decide to get more. Fun thread Jenn the topper person! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-____-person/page/2#post-1890686 Sat, 17 Feb 2018 02:53:20 +0000 Jenn 1890686@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Smittie! Someone here mentioned having a preference for silent shoes and, I admit, I boggled a little. I get a secret little thrill every time I wear shoes with hard soles that tap. They still feel “grown-up” to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-____-person/page/2#post-1890685 Sat, 17 Feb 2018 02:50:29 +0000 Jenn 1890685@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I want to clarify that I don’t think these classifications have to do with overbuying, necessarily. Just about what you love choosing and owning, and maybe what helps define your style. </p> <p>Suz and Christina, your points about our parents is pretty interesting. My mom was so much of a blazer person that, after she passed away, everyone in her office wore blazers in her honor. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-____-person/page/2#post-1890684 Sat, 17 Feb 2018 02:49:05 +0000 SarahD8 1890684@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, my childhood clothing preferences were rainbow!<br />It started in preschool when I wore one red sock and one green sock.<br />In my third-grade picture I'm wearing overalls with rainbow colored straps and underneath them a 3/4-sleeve white tee with a rainbow printed across the front.<br />I also remember in 1st grade I had a pink velour shirt with a rainbow-colored knit trim and I would always wear it on Music days, because at the end of class the Music teacher would dismiss us by color we were wearing, and this meant I always got to go first!</p> <p>To this day I have trouble limiting my color palette.....&nbsp; &nbsp; </p>
