I have really appreciated the help while I've been figuring this out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-your-style-challenge-kari#post-82569 Tue, 28 Jul 2009 21:16:05 +0000 Dani 82569@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it, Kari!!

I ADORE IT. </p> <p>i'd say you nailed it, my friend. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-your-style-challenge-kari#post-82412 Tue, 28 Jul 2009 04:13:11 +0000 Kari 82412@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>In the original thread, I identified my style as follows:<br /> Current style: Feminine, Dressy, Colorful<br /> Goal style: Creative, Polished, Effortless</p> <p><a href="http://inkariswardrobe.blogspot.com/2009/07/dress-your-style-challenge.html">Here's my attempt to capture my current style &amp; push towards "goal."</a> You can click on the pictures to see a larger view.</p> <p> I opted for a warm weather version because it's currently over 90 degrees and I'd like to actually be able to wear this in the next week. I started with the base of denim clamdiggers (I could substitute jeans or skinny jeans in cooler weather), a teal ruffled cap-sleeve blouse (which hits the "feminine" note), and black patent and beige leather flats. To add some "Kari style" elements, I added a ruffly black waistcoat (which along with the shoes add a dressed up vibe), a colorful slouchy fuchsia satchel, a black headband with tiny white polka dots, and turquoise earrings.</p> <p>I feel pretty polished considering this is a semi-casual outfit, but I'm not sure if I hit the mark on "creative" or "effortless". (I don't just want getting dressed to FEEL effortless, but I'd also like to avoid looking labored or overdone, like I spent a long time deciding what to wear.) </p>
