I have learned so much in the time I've been here, and am definitely way happier about my wardrobe and style now than I was before I joined. And I used to think I had a good sense of fashion before!</p> <p>Having said this, I have fantasized many times about being able to work with Angie in person... maybe one day! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-wondering-about-your-professional-services#post-1845592 Sun, 17 Sep 2017 01:29:17 +0000 Ginger 1845592@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Third for a DFW meetup. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-wondering-about-your-professional-services#post-1845535 Sat, 16 Sep 2017 22:25:04 +0000 Jenni NZ 1845535@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh yes a YLF meet-up would be so fun. Oh for flying to one, lack of holiday time is an issue. I can fly direct to San Francisco, LA, or Houston ( maybe not Houston just at present, unsure if Air NZ still flying with the recent flooding). If you do plan a Texas one, give lots of advance planning time </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-wondering-about-your-professional-services#post-1845531 Sat, 16 Sep 2017 22:17:42 +0000 Style Fan 1845531@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie you are so generous and kind.&nbsp; I have learnt so much from the YLF blog and the forum.&nbsp; Working on my wardrobe has become one of my retirement projects and I don't spend as much money on clothes as I did when I was working.&nbsp; I am amazed at what I have accomplished in the few years I have been part of this forum.<br />Going to a YLF meet up is on my list of things to do.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-wondering-about-your-professional-services#post-1845512 Sat, 16 Sep 2017 21:18:39 +0000 Laura G 1845512@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Seconding everybody else--stick around, there's a lot of knowledge right here on the forum. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-wondering-about-your-professional-services#post-1845510 Sat, 16 Sep 2017 21:13:11 +0000 Anonymous 1845510@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Susan</b>, we are glad to have you here, if you choose to start participating! &nbsp;I think almost all of us have lived some version of your story at various points in our lives. &nbsp;If you're interested in DIYing your wardrobe upgrade with some enthusiastic virtual feedback and cheerleading, please do jump in!</p> <p>AND I second <b>cindysmith</b> - DFW Meetup is FAB idea!</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-wondering-about-your-professional-services#post-1845455 Sat, 16 Sep 2017 15:24:41 +0000 Bijou 1845455@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Susan, so great to have you on the forum. If it is possible a trip to Seattle to have a session with Angie would be a 'dream come true' experience... well worth saving up for because making the wrong choices and not feeling great in what you are wearing are also expensive, in terms of dollars and also opportunity cost, life is too short not to enjoy all aspects of your life including what you are wearing. However, as much as I would personally love a style session with Angie, living in Australia, it is even more prohibitive and accordingly I am learning from reading and participating in the forum. </p> <p>Sterling makes a great point and I have to agree that my wardrobe has never been in a better place than now thanks to Angie and the friends that you make on YLF. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-wondering-about-your-professional-services#post-1845395 Sat, 16 Sep 2017 11:50:34 +0000 Anonymous 1845395@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Susan</b> -- I don't know what your budget is and I don't presume. &nbsp;</p> <p>If you have the budget to travel to Seattle or to join in a YLF Gathering, I recommend it. &nbsp;If that is not a possibility, I would suggest delving into the Forum. &nbsp;You would be amazed at how much you glean from the collective wisdom of the Forum. &nbsp;They are generous with their time and expertise. &nbsp;No problem is too tiny for them to attack with a vengeance. &nbsp;</p> <p>It might take a bit longer to achieve your goals than a one-on-one with Angie, but it is <u>totally doable</u>. I know because that is the exact approach I took. &nbsp;I can't tell you how much my wardrobe improved after having joined YLF and participating in the Forum. &nbsp;</p> <p>I personally identified one problem/issue per year. &nbsp;I worked on addressing that single issue over the course of the year or until I was satisfied. &nbsp;Slowly over the course of about four years, I have never been happier with my wardrobe. &nbsp;Never. &nbsp;</p> <p>Hope to see you on the Forum. &nbsp;Sterling.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-wondering-about-your-professional-services#post-1845338 Sat, 16 Sep 2017 02:30:39 +0000 JAileen 1845338@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I went to the Seattle meet up last summer. It was magical meeting Angie. I enjoyed meeting other fabbers, as well. They all looked *very* fab. My husband came and we made a long weekend of it, doing lots of fun things:</p> <p><a href="https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-hated-to-leave-seattle" rel="nofollow">https://youlookfab.com/welookf.....ve-seattle</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-wondering-about-your-professional-services#post-1845332 Sat, 16 Sep 2017 02:21:23 +0000 cindysmith 1845332@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG Angie, if there's ever a meet up in the dfw area, I'm so in lol </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-wondering-about-your-professional-services#post-1845315 Sat, 16 Sep 2017 01:49:43 +0000 mtnsofthemoon 1845315@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie you are a doll and gererous beyond words. If you ever do a YFL gathering in Los Angeles I would love to meet you and other YFL gals. And I hope of day to visit Seattle again. Hope my jumping in here is not rude or disrespectful tho you Susan. I appreciate your inquiry. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-wondering-about-your-professional-services#post-1845297 Fri, 15 Sep 2017 23:54:58 +0000 Angie 1845297@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for he enquiry, Susan. </p> <p>I only work with clients remotely <i>IF I have dressed them in person before</i> - which usually means they come to a Seattle for a few days, and we work together like that first.</p> <p>If I end up in your hood because of a trip I am taking, I don't work with clients on that trip because I'm usually on holiday. </p> <p>If there is a YLF gathering in your area and I am present, we usually shop together as a group and I don't charge a cent. But you do not get my undivided attention nor do we prep before the meeting. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-wondering-about-your-professional-services#post-1845235 Fri, 15 Sep 2017 18:39:37 +0000 Susan 1845235@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good morning, Angie, at least for you on the west coast! I've been following youlookfab.com, off and on, for awhile now and enjoy reading your blog posts, often before I'm even out of bed! I've never been what I would call a fashionista (far from it actually) but people who know me would probably say that I have a certain sense of style . . . . what style that is, well, I'm not sure But starting in about 2007, with menopause weight gain and a major household move that resulted in me working from home most of the time, I ended up not caring about clothes, clothes shopping or even making much of an effort in that department at all.</p> <p>Fast forward a number of years and things have changed. I've started to buy clothes again over the last year and a half or so and am now, just in general, caring more about how I look. I've been trying to expand my very conservative, color-phobic style, with some but not a lot of success, but now find myself with maybe too many of the wrong choices in my closet. </p> <p>So with that bit of background, my question is do you work with clients long distance? When I packed last week to come visit my parents (which I do four times a year, for a week at a time) it struck me there may not be a single capsule wardrobe in my closet! Probably why I travel so heavy and I think why I could use some help. </p> <p>Thanks in advance and look forward to hearing from you! </p>
