Put on a pair of jeans, a t-shirt/simple top, and shoes (flats or heels, your preference).<br /> 2. Then add whatever you want to need to mold the outfit into your own style. Show us why the words you selected ARE your style, how you make those concepts come to life while using the same base as everyone else.<br /> 3. Include the 3 words you selected in the Name Your Style thread. You can do your current or your future style.<br /> 4. Start a new post with your photo and your words. Make sure you call it "Dress Your Style: [your name]" in the subject line. </p> <p>Here's the real challege: leave it brief! The idea is to pick the adjectives and let them do the work for you -- and the same goes for the photo. Let your outfit do the talking! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-your-style-ylf-challenge#post-81035 Thu, 23 Jul 2009 04:21:49 +0000 LoP 81035@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'll try to post this weekend... with the other challenge outfit that I owe to JewelryGirl. I actually had a few outfits I wore to my meetings that fit the challenge, but I didn't have the time to photograph them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-your-style-ylf-challenge#post-81031 Thu, 23 Jul 2009 03:50:50 +0000 Ana 81031@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fun challenge! Hmm...I will try to post some outfits Friday. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-your-style-ylf-challenge#post-80976 Thu, 23 Jul 2009 00:56:48 +0000 Maya 80976@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sounds fun! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-your-style-ylf-challenge#post-80971 Thu, 23 Jul 2009 00:40:13 +0000 Angie 80971@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, Vani. Hugs and strength to you and your family. Take care. </p> <p>Kristen, you know I like information to be visual and to the point. Short, bite-size pieces :0) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-your-style-ylf-challenge#post-80961 Thu, 23 Jul 2009 00:14:46 +0000 Kari 80961@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kristen, what a great idea. You *are* clever to have us demonstrate our style using the exact same base. (It sounds a lot cooler coming from Angie, eh?)</p> <p>I'll try to play.</p> <p>Vani, thinking of you and your family. Hope that all goes okay. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-your-style-ylf-challenge#post-80947 Wed, 22 Jul 2009 23:34:56 +0000 cciele 80947@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I hope things go ok with your grandmother! Please keep us updated, Vani.</p> <p>I love this challenge too and definitely will participate. My first one! I'll get photos up tomorrow. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-your-style-ylf-challenge#post-80945 Wed, 22 Jul 2009 23:30:49 +0000 Vani 80945@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kristen, This *will* be a challenge and I love the idea!! Unfortunately, I have to make a most unexpected trip to India (leaving tomorrow) to see my grandma who is not doing too well. I will be gone until the 31 so will try to post that weekend, if I can. Will that be ok? I will be following everybody's threads though! Good luck ladies </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-your-style-ylf-challenge#post-80881 Wed, 22 Jul 2009 19:15:52 +0000 Kristen 80881@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would have said post them here as a group, but now that the other thread is 70+ entries long, I am afraid Angie would have apoplexy! :)</p> <p>Smaller threads will be much easier, methinks. Make sure you call it "Dress Your Style: [your name]" in the subject line, and we'll be good to go! I will collect all links into one larger post once it gets going.</p> <p>Angie, will that work? If so, I'll edit the instructions in this post. </p> <p>April, if you want to do your future style, go for it. They aren't really any restrictions on the challenge except to start with your base outfit and your 3 words. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-your-style-ylf-challenge#post-80872 Wed, 22 Jul 2009 19:01:02 +0000 marianna 80872@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sounds fun! I'll see what I can come up with... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-your-style-ylf-challenge#post-80868 Wed, 22 Jul 2009 18:49:57 +0000 Michelle 80868@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This challenge is entirely too much fun! I'm in, will post tomorrow or Friday! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-your-style-ylf-challenge#post-80867 Wed, 22 Jul 2009 18:48:44 +0000 April 80867@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Can the outfit embody our style goals rather than our current style? I'm still a little fuzzy on "my" current style, but I do know what I want to look like. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-your-style-ylf-challenge#post-80855 Wed, 22 Jul 2009 18:15:30 +0000 bella 80855@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a fantastic challenge! I hope everybody joins.<br /> Should we post our outfits in separate threads or will you start one Kristen? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-your-style-ylf-challenge#post-80842 Wed, 22 Jul 2009 17:51:29 +0000 Kristen 80842@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Buuuuump! </p> <p>Now that we've been putting a name to our style, let's see it in action! I have a few ideas for mine, and I'm off work tomorrow so I can actually WEAR jeans... </p> <p>Can't wait to see everyone's pics! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-your-style-ylf-challenge#post-80758 Wed, 22 Jul 2009 13:07:18 +0000 hanna 80758@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE. i am all over this challenge, k ;). will post pics soon! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-your-style-ylf-challenge#post-80754 Wed, 22 Jul 2009 11:50:13 +0000 JewelryGirl 80754@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I LOVE this idea! I've been mulling over the Name Your Style Thread &#38; I think this will help me come up with something. GREAT idea Kristin, can't wait to see what everyone posts - especially like the idea of everyone doing it with a basic base!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-your-style-ylf-challenge#post-80751 Wed, 22 Jul 2009 10:44:45 +0000 April 80751@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kristen, when I saw "MLF," my first thought was that the site would be named "Me Look Fab." Hehe.</p> <p>This is an interesting challenge. I have been having such trouble naming "my" style -- maybe the best way to figure it out is just to create an outfit and then describe it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-your-style-ylf-challenge#post-80748 Wed, 22 Jul 2009 10:31:18 +0000 Louise 80748@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooo loving the sound of this i'm definately on board x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-your-style-ylf-challenge#post-80744 Wed, 22 Jul 2009 09:59:03 +0000 Kristen 80744@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Since everyone seems to have had a big kick out of the Name Your Style thread, I thought I would throw out a challenge that incorporates that. I saw the germ of an idea on a blog a couple weeks ago and have been waiting for the right moment to link it here; I think it would be an excellent exercise for all of us!</p> <p>Challenge: Put on a pair of jeans, a t-shirt/simple top, and shoes (flats or heels, your preference). Then add whatever you want to need to mold the outfit into your own style. Show us why the words you selected ARE your style, how you make those concepts come to life while using the same base as everyone else.</p> <p>Post the photo on this thread, and please include the 3 words you selected for yourself! </p> <p>Credit: I got the idea from this blog post at MLF:<br /> <a href="http://missladyfinger.blogspot.com/2009/06/personal-style.html" rel="nofollow">http://missladyfinger.blogspot.....style.html</a></p> <p>Oooooh, I really hope this takes off. I am dying to see all the variations that will come!</p> <p>Ready, set, go! </p>
