I'll pull up all the finds from a certain store or line. That gives me a snapshot of the store's look and can highlight some options I might have overlooked otherwise. </p> <p>If I'm trying to figure out what type of item I might like, I'll do a search of finds people have collected already (the way some people use pinterest). I recently pulled up all the finds labeled "sneakers" for example. That gave me a good overview of what kind of sneakers options are out there, and helped me see which variations appealed to me. I've done the same for handbags, or pants styles. </p> <p>I've also used items from the bigger finds collection to put together a practice capsule for a certain look. I like finds for this because finds are actual items that are out there in stores (especially if I limit my search to stores in my price range). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finds-feature-a-couple-of-questions#post-1663037 Wed, 18 May 2016 01:03:49 +0000 Angie 1663037@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have my <b>entire </b>Wardrobe<b></b> recorded in Finds.

You can add and subtract to these.&nbsp;</p> <p>You can recommend items to others, too.&nbsp;</p> <p>Dating would be a great idea (thank you!) -- I suppose you could do that in the notes. You could also note the price you paid if you wish, to keep a budget.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finds-feature-a-couple-of-questions#post-1663006 Wed, 18 May 2016 00:36:34 +0000 Meredith 1663006@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A lot of time I just use it to mark Angie's picks for reference. When I do buy something I try to remember to add a find or make a custom find. Then I can use the collections feature to save outfit ideas or capsules. It's a great tool! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finds-feature-a-couple-of-questions#post-1663003 Wed, 18 May 2016 00:33:03 +0000 BrieN 1663003@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the Finds feature is <b>awesome</b>, but I'm not sure I'm making the most of it. I have added a lot of my shopping list and wardrobe to My FInds and added a few custom items, so I think I have the hang of that. But how else do you use this? Do you somehow date your finds so you can easily see how much you've added to your wardrobe in a timeframe? Do you set up outfits or capsules in Finds? How do you organize things?&nbsp;</p>
