I made a list of items and possible combos (on an Excel spreadsheet LOL) but I haven't had time to take pictures yet. This is going to be fun...and useful for forcing me to look at my clothes in creative ways. Also maybe it will cut down on my dithering time in the morning if I have a list of outfits to look at. :)</p> <p>I did include shoes, belt, &amp; scarf as in the original article, but feel free to do whatever you want! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-wardrobe-remix-create-14-new-outfits#post-416228 Sun, 04 Sep 2011 18:19:11 +0000 Aida 416228@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Made my list of items yesterday but probably won't have time to play until next weekend. I'm not including shoes or accessories in mine :} </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-wardrobe-remix-create-14-new-outfits#post-416155 Sun, 04 Sep 2011 16:24:44 +0000 Jonesy 416155@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This sounds fun, though slightly daunting :)! I look forward to seeing everyone's pics! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-wardrobe-remix-create-14-new-outfits#post-416151 Sun, 04 Sep 2011 16:20:07 +0000 Mo 416151@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>MPJ, the original Redbook article included shoes, so I did, too. But I don't think anyone's got hard, fast rules about how to do it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-wardrobe-remix-create-14-new-outfits#post-416146 Sun, 04 Sep 2011 15:50:19 +0000 Mamapicklejuice 416146@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Are we counting shoes? I hope so, that would help my meager wardrobe. heh. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-wardrobe-remix-create-14-new-outfits#post-416067 Sun, 04 Sep 2011 06:57:11 +0000 Marley 416067@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm in! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-wardrobe-remix-create-14-new-outfits#post-416039 Sun, 04 Sep 2011 03:59:15 +0000 Mo 416039@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I see that in the article their 6 new pieces are 2 tops, 2 shoes, a dress and pants, so I am going to attempt the same. I'm heading to bed but preliminarily have these items as my new pieces to try and remix:</p> <p>red jeans<br /> taupe turtleneck<br /> green &amp; black tunic<br /> purple heeled oxfords<br /> cognac boots<br /> purple wrap dress</p> <p>It will certainly be a learning experience for me, since I'm pretty bad at remixing, myself, lol!</p> <p>I've also picked out 12 basics and again am pretty close to their model - 4 tops, 2 pants, 2 jackets, skirt, belt, heels, scarf. Since I don't really wear scarves or belts, it's another big leap. </p> <p>This will be fun! Now to go to bed. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-wardrobe-remix-create-14-new-outfits#post-416035 Sun, 04 Sep 2011 03:21:04 +0000 Mo 416035@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry I didn't see this earlier, Goldenpig - the jeans are Ralph Lauren; I got them off eBay.<br /> When I do my 14 I'm not sure if the red jeans would be versatile enough . . . but maybe! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-wardrobe-remix-create-14-new-outfits#post-416031 Sun, 04 Sep 2011 02:55:35 +0000 chewyspaghetti 416031@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here is mine:<br /> <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-18-piece-14-outfit-challenge" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....-challenge</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-wardrobe-remix-create-14-new-outfits#post-411290 Fri, 26 Aug 2011 14:40:50 +0000 goldenpig 411290@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy &amp; Mo, you look fabulous! Now I've got both the yellow skirt and red jeans on my list--they look so versatile. Where did you get the red jeans? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-wardrobe-remix-create-14-new-outfits#post-409780 Wed, 24 Aug 2011 10:07:28 +0000 Lynne 409780@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy and Malina, these are wonderful! </p> <p>I suggest you re-post in a new thread with "Bella's one item 3 ways" or similar in the title so nobody missed out on these. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-wardrobe-remix-create-14-new-outfits#post-409596 Tue, 23 Aug 2011 23:31:56 +0000 rae 409596@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh... this would be tough for me, since my casual and work looks are so different. However, I do like a challenge! I am 80% in. Must look at closet to see if this is even possible! lol </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-wardrobe-remix-create-14-new-outfits#post-409503 Tue, 23 Aug 2011 19:27:07 +0000 Mo 409503@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I have played around with my red jeans, but have yet to wear them outside of the house. Maybe they count? I have several outfits ready for when the weather turns </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-wardrobe-remix-create-14-new-outfits#post-409498 Tue, 23 Aug 2011 19:18:25 +0000 Anonymous 409498@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Using Bella's suggestion, I made up a few summer outfits using the yellow Halogen skirt and posted them today on Sveta's yellow skirt thread, page 2. However, they would also qualify, I think, for Bella's challenge of one item three ways. Should I post them or the link here? Do we need a new thread for posting challenge outfits? Actually, here is the link to the outfits to see if they qualify . Scroll down on page 2.<br /> <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/for-deborah-yellow-raisin-skirt-looks/page/2" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....oks/page/2</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-wardrobe-remix-create-14-new-outfits#post-409465 Tue, 23 Aug 2011 18:42:30 +0000 goldenpig 409465@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lynne, I agree. It looks like they counted scarves and belts but not jewelry/bags/tights.</p> <p>Chewyspaghetti, I agree--great idea. I don't think you have to try them on if it's too hot...just take pictures of the outfits for future reference. Your own personal lookbook! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-wardrobe-remix-create-14-new-outfits#post-409450 Tue, 23 Aug 2011 18:28:42 +0000 chewyspaghetti 409450@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This sounds really fun!<br /> There is another option ladies- nobody says that you have to wear the outfits now that you come up with. I'm clearly months away from fall weather, but I'm sick of summer dressing and would prefer to do fall outfits. I can figure them out, take photos and keep track of them to wear when it actually does cool off. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-wardrobe-remix-create-14-new-outfits#post-409422 Tue, 23 Aug 2011 18:06:59 +0000 Lynne 409422@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've just been going through the link, and I notice that tights, bags and jewellry haven't been featured at all. So I propose that these items can be include as extras, and not counted in the 18 pieces....do you agree? </p> <p>I'm looking forward to this! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-wardrobe-remix-create-14-new-outfits#post-408910 Mon, 22 Aug 2011 19:10:13 +0000 goldenpig 408910@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Haha, I didn't think about the weather...I live in the SF Bay Area so I wear fall clothes year round. In fact it's often colder in the summer because of the fog! But I grew up in Arizona, so I certainly can sympathize with everyone sweltering in the heat. </p> <p>I've never posted a challenge so I don't know how you guys typically do these, but I'm pretty flexible. I propose we do some sort of challenge now, and then maybe another one in October. That way everyone can participate! I'd love to see what you come up with! Maybe I'll do one with red/black clothes now and then brown/autumn tones later, or vice versa. Also, I wasn't necessarily planning on waiting till I wore all the outfits out...so you can just try them on at home for fun, or take pictures of just the outfits themselves without trying them on.</p> <p>For this challenge, you have the option of any of the following (pick whichever you like!)<br /> 1. Summer clothes if it's hot where you live<br /> 2. Fall clothes now if you live in a temperate environment (or if it's too hot out, just try them on at home in the AC and snap a picture indoors)<br /> 3. If you don't feel up to doing the whole 14 outfits, do Bella's suggestion of outfits using one summer piece worn three ways.</p> <p>How about posting by Sept 15? Is that enough time for everyone? Then maybe if people want to, we can do another round in October to finish by Halloween? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-wardrobe-remix-create-14-new-outfits#post-408902 Mon, 22 Aug 2011 18:59:44 +0000 Lynne 408902@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Squee! GP, I'm in, and waiting until October is fab as it gives me a chance to go through that link again. What was really challenging about it was that the 18 items included belts and shoes. </p> <p>Suz and Bella, I will join the summer challenge too. I missed having a picture to start with this morning :). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-wardrobe-remix-create-14-new-outfits#post-408886 Mon, 22 Aug 2011 18:24:30 +0000 Charmian 408886@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh, this sounds like fun! Goldenpig, I could do this challenge right now in overcast Seattle, but it sounds like there are some folks who have weather challenges at the moment. Just let us know when you like to start! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-wardrobe-remix-create-14-new-outfits#post-408861 Mon, 22 Aug 2011 17:23:07 +0000 Suz 408861@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bella, I love your idea for those of us who are still in full summer mode. That actually sounds like most of us, so far! Goldenpig, how about we wait a bit to start your fab challenge and in the meantime try Bella's? Bella, what if we put it in a new thread? I can see some fun (and maybe wacky) combinations coming out of that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-wardrobe-remix-create-14-new-outfits#post-408856 Mon, 22 Aug 2011 17:10:57 +0000 Mo 408856@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This does sound like fun but I'm also in the 'fall is a LONG way off' group here in hot FL. All my recent purchases were long sleeved tops. I would have to tweak this somehow to work for me right now. I could do an indoors, a/c, not IRL version of dress up lol. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-wardrobe-remix-create-14-new-outfits#post-408855 Mon, 22 Aug 2011 17:04:33 +0000 bella 408855@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a fun idea. It made me think of a mini summer challenge. How about something like take the least worn summer item from your closet and wear it in 3 different ways? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-wardrobe-remix-create-14-new-outfits#post-408841 Mon, 22 Aug 2011 16:36:02 +0000 rachylou 408841@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So creative! </p> <p>I too am still waiting for the fall fashion to hit the stores in my area. The only thing I've gotten are two pairs of "fat pants." LOL. And I don't think I'll be able to wear them long, which is a bummer 'cuz I really like them.</p> <p>But doctors are strongly intimating I ought to lose 5-10 lbs. They want me not just not overweight but skinny. Bleah. I lost the genetic lottery. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-wardrobe-remix-create-14-new-outfits#post-408820 Mon, 22 Aug 2011 15:42:27 +0000 Carole 408820@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I love this! I tried this with the spring version for a summer/vacation capsule I created...here is the link:</p> <p><a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/those-of-you-with-a-wardrobe-capsule" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....be-capsule</a></p> <p>I'm I but might have to wait awhile to put together a fall wardrobe. I feel like summer just started here! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-wardrobe-remix-create-14-new-outfits#post-408815 Mon, 22 Aug 2011 15:38:05 +0000 Ginny 408815@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would love to give this atry but it is still super hot here, i vote for October too!!! Sounds like fun!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-wardrobe-remix-create-14-new-outfits#post-408809 Mon, 22 Aug 2011 15:30:44 +0000 Anonymous 408809@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd need to start this in October but it sounds like fun, especially since several of us have some of the same new (NAS) pieces. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-wardrobe-remix-create-14-new-outfits#post-408804 Mon, 22 Aug 2011 15:25:59 +0000 goldenpig 408804@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sure! Or you can even do it with summer clothes! I think it's going to take me a little while too, because I'm missing most of the "wardrobe basics" that they listed, so I would like to pick up a couple of items first like a belt, tank or camisole, etc. </p>
