So you can now clone and then change one or two items. Yay, I pave been waiting for this! Also, I created a category for "culled" items from my wardrobe, and move old pieces to that. That gets round the cpw issue and retains outfits using pieces that are no longer on my wardrobe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-wardrobe-apps#post-1124741 Mon, 30 Dec 2013 18:21:29 +0000 Emily 1124741@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LBD - I use stylitics most days to track what I wear&nbsp;for a few reasons:&nbsp;<br />1. &nbsp;Because I am a nerd and love stats like&nbsp;# of wears,&nbsp;CPW, and what months you wear an item. &nbsp;CPW has limited importance, but it is nice to know that some bigger ticket items (like my leather bags) get a TON of wear<br />2. &nbsp;Because I was a teenager in the early 00s&nbsp;and loved Cher's virtual closet in the movie "Clueless"; plus I'd rather drag and drop outfits together when deciding what to wear than make a mess in my closet<br />3. &nbsp;It lets you choose a "cover" image for outfits, so you can see the whole thing and it's parts<br />4. &nbsp;It's a nice repository for inspiration from your own closet - for example, pieces you've previously worn to certain occasions<br />5. &nbsp;It's kind of fun to look at what other people have in their closets and how they wear it together </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-wardrobe-apps#post-1124725 Mon, 30 Dec 2013 18:10:09 +0000 Mary Beth (formerly LBD) 1124725@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm kind of afraid of having my eyes opened. &nbsp; LOL. &nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-wardrobe-apps#post-1124720 Mon, 30 Dec 2013 18:06:54 +0000 Meli 1124720@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Because of this thread I have joined stylitics </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-wardrobe-apps#post-1124707 Mon, 30 Dec 2013 17:49:04 +0000 kkards 1124707@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LBD--i'm also struggling with the photographing of my entire wardrobe. but i think it will be my Jan project. and, i think as mo pointed out, this will be an eye opening exercise. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-wardrobe-apps#post-1123864 Sun, 29 Dec 2013 02:50:19 +0000 Jewell 1123864@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've used Stylebook for over a year. Features I've used include Closet, Looks, Inspiration, Calendar, Style Stats, and Style Expert (great articles &amp; tips).</p> <p>Pros:<br />-easy to add items to closet (super easy when you can find stock photos on the web)<br />-items are grouped into categories and you can add notes about each item such as cost, size, care instructions, etc<br />-you can easily build &nbsp;and save&nbsp;looks; entire looks can be easily added to your calendar when you wear them<br />-calendar feature allows you to see a month of outfits and tracks CPW for you<br />-Style Stats are fun for the number crunchers out there. It includes an item count, total closet value, top 25 least and most worn items, and more.</p> <p>Cons:<br />-time consuming to build your closet (in the beginning) especially if you have to photograph many of&nbsp;your items<br />-items cannot be deleted if used in looks without deleting the whole look which deletes the outfit from your calendar and changes the CPW calculation (This is a problem I'm currently running into as I make updates from my recent cull.)<br />-I wish there were a way to edit an existing look and save it as a new outfit without replacing the original. I find it frustrating to have to rebuild a whole outfit from scratch when all I've changed is the shirt or shoes I wore with it.</p> <p>I've attached two pics of looks I created with the Stylebook app. Both looks include a combination of items that I added using stock photos as well as items I photographed myself using my Iphone.</p> <p>LBD- At times I've used it pretty regularly for outfit planning, but I still find it best to try the planned outfits out before I need to wear them. I preplanned all of my outfits for the Picture Perfect Challenge this way. I recently used the outfit planning feature to decide whether or not to buy a sweater I was considering. I wanted to see how many potential outfits I could make around the sweater before committing to buying it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-wardrobe-apps#post-1123850 Sun, 29 Dec 2013 02:25:56 +0000 Mary Beth (formerly LBD) 1123850@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maybe this should be a separate thread - but I am curious to know if anyone uses this or other wardrobe/style software&nbsp;on a <u>regular</u> basis (i.e. 4-5 days a week) - and for what specific purpose: &nbsp;wardrobe curation? &nbsp; shopping? &nbsp;outfit planning? &nbsp; and if used for outfit planning, do you find your outfits work in real-life 'execution'?&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-wardrobe-apps#post-1123777 Sat, 28 Dec 2013 23:59:29 +0000 Elizabeth P 1123777@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I use it on my iPad.&nbsp; they just released a new update that is awesome (but of course if you didn't have the old version you probably wouldn't notice the upgrade). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-wardrobe-apps#post-1123775 Sat, 28 Dec 2013 23:52:29 +0000 Mo 1123775@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LBD, I can say that photo cataloging your wardrobe will certainly wake you up to have much you have! &nbsp;Did that about 3 years ago before a move. &nbsp;Ouch. &nbsp;Now I take any and every screen shot of an online pic of new items!<br />(I started using Closet Couture, but it was kind of a hassle. &nbsp;I now have my first device that's not a laptop (Kindle) so maybe I can explore the world of apps. &nbsp;I'm such a newbie I've only used ebay app and YLF lol) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-wardrobe-apps#post-1123770 Sat, 28 Dec 2013 23:40:21 +0000 Mary Beth (formerly LBD) 1123770@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Durrrr... never mind the previous question - I just realized that Sophistiquenoir review says she uses it on her iPad. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-wardrobe-apps#post-1123768 Sat, 28 Dec 2013 23:39:25 +0000 Mary Beth (formerly LBD) 1123768@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Quick question - anyone using Stylebook on their iPad? &nbsp; I'm starting to look at these options as well... although the thought of photographing my wardrobe and loading it up into an app,&nbsp;makes my brainpan hurt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-wardrobe-apps#post-1115273 Mon, 16 Dec 2013 04:42:53 +0000 Elizabeth P 1115273@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I use style book.

It's a bit time consuming but I can imagine it being really useful once I get it all set up. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-wardrobe-apps#post-1115117 Mon, 16 Dec 2013 00:11:49 +0000 Emily 1115117@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I use stylitics, it is working well for me so far. &nbsp;They have mobile apps and a website. &nbsp;There was some time up front to add things to my closet but that would be the case with all of them I think. </p> <p></p> <p>eta - here's mine:&nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.stylitics.com/emilykate">https://www.stylitics.com/emilykate</a></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-wardrobe-apps#post-1115094 Sun, 15 Dec 2013 23:32:23 +0000 kkards 1115094@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Caro- stylebook is one of the apps I downloaded. I haven't spent the time to really get it set up yet. I'm hoping to get enough feedback here so that I can narrow down the apps and only spend time setting up on. This is like my search for the perfect budget/ banking app, I think I'll have to settle, but at least it should do must of what I want. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-wardrobe-apps#post-1115093 Sun, 15 Dec 2013 23:30:13 +0000 Hestonian 1115093@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I use Cloth on my iPad. I like it because I can view thumbnails of my various outfits, which has helped me to see what colors and looks I tend to gravitate towards, and well as looks that, upon later reflection, weren't doing me any favors!<br /> Here's a screenshot: </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-wardrobe-apps#post-1115091 Sun, 15 Dec 2013 23:25:50 +0000 FlorenceFearne 1115091@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote for Stylebook - I haven't used it personally, but one of my favorite bloggers JUST posted a very favorable review.&nbsp;</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://sophistiquenoir.com/2013/12/review-of-stylebook-closet-manager-app.html">http://sophistiquenoir.com/201.....r-app.html</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-wardrobe-apps#post-1115089 Sun, 15 Dec 2013 23:21:25 +0000 Caro in Oz 1115089@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Have a look at Stylebook - there are lots of videos about it&nbsp;on YouTube. It isn't perfect but I couldn't find anything better when I was looking. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-wardrobe-apps#post-1115076 Sun, 15 Dec 2013 23:03:19 +0000 Anonymous 1115076@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I use the app cloth - I think I mistakenly called it closet in a prior post! I like it because you can have different categories for types of outfits and for favorites. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-wardrobe-apps#post-1115073 Sun, 15 Dec 2013 23:01:26 +0000 kkards 1115073@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm realizing that I need to get a better handle on what I own. So I have been looking a various closet/ wardrobe apps. I've downloaded a few, but can't see to find one a like. I'm looking for something that's easy to set up, and maintain, ideally I'd like to be able to access on my phone, iPad or computer. So, I'm hoping that you wonderful fabbers can chime in, which apps have you tried, what were the pro's and con's? </p>
