You make it come alive. Are you getting that one? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/an-interesting-comment-re-personal-style-vibes#post-600884 Sat, 21 Apr 2012 21:26:41 +0000 Suz 600884@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#1, your style always ROCKS, Una! </p> <p>#2, I LOOOOOOVE this idea of a YLF copycat or simply "style the same item in your own way" challenge, both the "item" version and the "outfit formula" version. We have to do this!! </p> <p>#3, Claire, I am with you..my looks make it all seem so ladylike unless I rough it up on purpose. And that was always hard for me to figure out before YLF. SO grateful to be learning here from all of you and from Angie. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/an-interesting-comment-re-personal-style-vibes#post-600853 Sat, 21 Apr 2012 20:18:40 +0000 Kiwichik 600853@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm with you Mo don't think I have any of the YLF looks you describe except for my newly purcased pencil skirt and that was definitely a YLF inspired purchase. It shoud be fun to see how evryone brings their personal vibe to the same clothing items. The copycat challenge kind of does that too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/an-interesting-comment-re-personal-style-vibes#post-600750 Sat, 21 Apr 2012 17:54:46 +0000 Mo 600750@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hee hee - I can't help but think in all these examples I'm an outlier! Oxfords, nope. Pencil skirt - nope. Patterned pants - nope. Bright blazer - nope. Denim shirt - nope. And on and on. But I don't mind a bit! I think it must say something that I don't have any of these YLF looks.<br /> I do recall listing the many variations of the 'lemming look' on the board in a post late last year though . . . maybe I can find that. </p> <p>EDIT: it's nowhere near wearing the same items, but rather a take on a common silhouette of the season. But it was fun to compare! <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wwew-the-stylish-herd-lineup" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....erd-lineup</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/an-interesting-comment-re-personal-style-vibes#post-600704 Sat, 21 Apr 2012 15:42:22 +0000 lynne 600704@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great idea! I'm in. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/an-interesting-comment-re-personal-style-vibes#post-600398 Sat, 21 Apr 2012 01:00:18 +0000 Carole 600398@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh, this will be fun! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/an-interesting-comment-re-personal-style-vibes#post-600397 Sat, 21 Apr 2012 00:58:26 +0000 Sarah A 600397@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>this is very interesting indeed! I was in the military for almost 10 years and it was interesting how my first impression skills were much more honed then when everyone looked more alike than now when I can use clothes/hairstyle as a crutch. Also thinking the proposed comparison thread sounds like great fun. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/an-interesting-comment-re-personal-style-vibes#post-600358 Fri, 20 Apr 2012 23:42:23 +0000 Anonymous 600358@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yep, you're on to something. We all give off completely different vibes. Remember that site we were all looking at in January where we took a quiz about our hair, features and body types? I can't remember what it was, but Sveta came out as a "Soft dramatic" type and it made so much sense. I was just thinking the other day about how much my WASP-y looking features determine the direction my outfit vibe goes in. Oh well, I can't fight the way i look, so I might as well go with it. :/ </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/an-interesting-comment-re-personal-style-vibes#post-600261 Fri, 20 Apr 2012 22:01:31 +0000 catgirl 600261@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Okay, when I have more time and brainpower I will be posting a new thread on this. Maybe two possible outfits - casual and dressy, and have everyone post on the same thread so we can compare. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/an-interesting-comment-re-personal-style-vibes#post-600172 Fri, 20 Apr 2012 19:23:30 +0000 Astrid 600172@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think that would be fun! Would be interesting to see what everyone comes up with. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/an-interesting-comment-re-personal-style-vibes#post-600134 Fri, 20 Apr 2012 18:51:19 +0000 modgrl 600134@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@MaryK, the best was when you copycatted the guy from Sart. I love that you take your inspiration from anywhere and everywhere. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/an-interesting-comment-re-personal-style-vibes#post-600121 Fri, 20 Apr 2012 18:35:25 +0000 MsMary 600121@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That would be super fun!</p> <p>Here's my thread from January where I showed all of my million copycats from the previous year: <a href="http://funwithfashion.lookfab.com/post/in-which-i-prove-that-i-not-a-single-original-idea-in-my-head-at-all" rel="nofollow">http://funwithfashion.lookfab......ead-at-all</a>.

I think the thread would be a blast! It's very interesting to see what personality, style, etc. we each bring to our clothes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/an-interesting-comment-re-personal-style-vibes#post-599797 Fri, 20 Apr 2012 11:17:58 +0000 Sveta 599797@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the idea of this challenge, Una! And I think they don't need to be exactly the same items (that would be pretty limiting) but the same style.<br /> E.g. the following formula: "bright blazer, denim shirt and skinnies". Or "patterned pants and patterned top". A lot of us have similar items in these categories so we can get a lot of outfits to look at.<br /> Or we can specify one part of the outfit and let the rest to be "free style" like: "bright pencil skirt" or "skinnies and flat oxfords".<br /> What do you think? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/an-interesting-comment-re-personal-style-vibes#post-599794 Fri, 20 Apr 2012 10:22:01 +0000 Vildy 599794@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I keep saying, in not so many words, that it's body language. One's stance towards oneself. Expectations of oneself. This other women was probably buying work clothes. You were possibly resigned to buying some work clothes but you love your off duty self and that wardrobe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/an-interesting-comment-re-personal-style-vibes#post-599742 Fri, 20 Apr 2012 06:37:38 +0000 Fruitful 599742@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Frye boots (specify model), B44 dress, docs (Saras, lace ups, sure there's more), Kate Spade bags. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/an-interesting-comment-re-personal-style-vibes#post-599739 Fri, 20 Apr 2012 06:31:30 +0000 Ana 599739@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Jayne! </p> <p>Una, the red Express blazer and the fishbow pumps... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/an-interesting-comment-re-personal-style-vibes#post-599737 Fri, 20 Apr 2012 06:27:10 +0000 catgirl 599737@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know at one point we discussed everyone's version of jeans and a white shirt. But in this case it was not anyone's version of an idea or how it was styled, it was literally the exact same items worn the same way. </p> <p>I'm racking my brains to think of items several of us have and could all wear in a thread here! Halogen skirts, of course. What else? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/an-interesting-comment-re-personal-style-vibes#post-599705 Fri, 20 Apr 2012 04:31:17 +0000 jayne 599705@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ana here is one thread I found where YLFers wear the same thing....it is fascinating</p> <p><a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/for-deborah-yellow-raisin-skirt-looks" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....kirt-looks</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/an-interesting-comment-re-personal-style-vibes#post-599695 Fri, 20 Apr 2012 04:10:33 +0000 Ana 599695@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would love to see how different people on YLF look in the same outfit. If there is a thread like that I would love to get a link to it. Is it possible since so many people have the same items? I know it's always super interesting to me to see how other people on YLF style the same items I have. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/an-interesting-comment-re-personal-style-vibes#post-599689 Fri, 20 Apr 2012 04:05:17 +0000 Fruitful 599689@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>AG, just edited my post - I think your style is strong and the other one's blandness sounds strong too very interesting contrast! would love to have seen it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/an-interesting-comment-re-personal-style-vibes#post-599688 Fri, 20 Apr 2012 04:02:59 +0000 catgirl 599688@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fruitful, exactly! Even the photos make a difference... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/an-interesting-comment-re-personal-style-vibes#post-599686 Fri, 20 Apr 2012 04:01:16 +0000 Fruitful 599686@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the description "meh" haircut; I can see it now While your personalities may have something to do with it, hair, face shape, body type all suggest different things. That's why so much of the NaturallyCurly.com discussions are about the discriminatory attitude that professional = straightened hair.</p> <p>I think it is fascinating. I found some model pics of the coat I'm trying (but in a different colour). Check the different vibes!</p> <p>EDIT: I can see from looking at my own pics that although body type plays into it bigtime, there are also very different style vibes in these pics! So you definitely give off your own style, as does your friend. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/an-interesting-comment-re-personal-style-vibes#post-599679 Fri, 20 Apr 2012 03:51:40 +0000 catgirl 599679@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Last night at the CAbi party, another gal and I tried the exact same combination. It was a printed tank and blush worklike jacket. I had on my floral jeans, and the other woman may even have been pants-less. The hostess (my good friend) said to the other woman, "You look like you're off to take charge at a professional business meeting." To me, she said, "You look like you're off to party at a hip 80s concert." </p> <p>We both found this SO interesting! Is it because my friend know us both and our respective personalities? The other woman was probably my age, much more "classic" in the outfit she wore to the party, with a nice but kind of (I don't know how to put this otherwise) meh haircut. </p> <p>Did we try once here to see how different people look in the same outfit? It's fascinating to contemplate. Any thoughts? </p>
