It's nice for me to have a non-China style outlet, too.</p> <p>JR: Thank you!!</p> <p>Aida: Thank you for the suggestion!

I think so too!</p> <p>Suz: Thank you! I'm glad you liked China though And I'm in Nanjing, studying international relations type stuff.</p> <p>Rachy: Thank you Y'all are so nice. I'm in a Masters-type program for International Relations, which is pretty hard but fun!</p> <p>MaryK: Thanks!</p> <p>Qfbrenda: Thanks! I'm glad the picture amused - I was channeling Legally Blonde.

I am loving what I see so far!<br /> We believe there are feet somewhere in there, no worries ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-post-and-first-wiw#post-770775 Sat, 10 Nov 2012 03:42:19 +0000 moira 770775@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't know that you need any help. You may be a style leader, not a follower. #1 and #3 are just killer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-post-and-first-wiw#post-770618 Fri, 09 Nov 2012 23:30:52 +0000 Kiwichik 770618@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well AB you have one very stylish collection of clothes and look great even sans feet.

It looks like you're doing a great job with your small wardrobe Just offhand, I think that long cardigan in #1 would look great with the plaid shirt in #2 and perhaps some black jeans/pants if you have them along with the cognac boots (I'll take your word that they have feet in them ). Looking forward to seeing more! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-post-and-first-wiw#post-769717 Thu, 08 Nov 2012 23:43:17 +0000 JR 769717@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Too cute! Looks like you are doing well all on your own, but we can all benefit from more inspiration.</p> <p>I am so reassured to know that you actually have feet... whew! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-post-and-first-wiw#post-769711 Thu, 08 Nov 2012 23:38:19 +0000 Inge 769711@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How wonderful to see you post from China, Anne! I really like your colour combinations and am looking forward to seeing more of your style on YLF. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-post-and-first-wiw#post-769309 Thu, 08 Nov 2012 16:38:56 +0000 Anne Boleyn 769309@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Isabel: Thank you for all the nice words!! Red is such a warm, hopeful color - I'm glad you love it too.</p> <p>Transcona: Thanks!! I was worried people would nag at me for not showing my shoes, tbh (I've seen it happen :P). It's been really great to watch others remix and re-layer so I'm hoping I'll continue being inspired. Thanks again!</p> <p>Heleen: Thank you!! Seems like #3 is popular.</p> <p>RunnerRae: Thanks! (is there a less repetitive way to express gratitude??) I love that one too - that was a staple teaching outfit the last two years.</p> <p>Angie: Hello, and thanks! I'm so excited to have a forum for both English and style... it's awesome!</p> <p>Janet: Thanks, and glad to know someone has faith in me already </p> <p>Lisa: Thank you! I've lived in unheated houses enough that I've gotten bundling down - hopefully I can branch out a bit though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-post-and-first-wiw#post-769249 Thu, 08 Nov 2012 16:04:09 +0000 Lisa 769249@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congrats on your first WIW. It looks like you have layering dresses down, just lovely here! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-post-and-first-wiw#post-769215 Thu, 08 Nov 2012 15:42:01 +0000 Janet 769215@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome! Glad to see you post. Your style looks very fun and somehow I think even if you wore the same sweater dress five days a week, you'd make it look unique each day. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-post-and-first-wiw#post-769212 Thu, 08 Nov 2012 15:38:49 +0000 Angie 769212@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome!</p> <p>I love that you live in China and are participating on our forum! You have a great sense of style and I look forward to getting to know you and your style better. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-post-and-first-wiw#post-769170 Thu, 08 Nov 2012 15:13:36 +0000 Raisin 769170@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love your outfits! You look like a very stylish student. #3 is my favorite, it's so great on you! Looks like you already have some great style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-post-and-first-wiw#post-769160 Thu, 08 Nov 2012 15:09:36 +0000 HeleenH 769160@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Anne, you have a lovely style. I like what you are wearing in picture 3 best. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-post-and-first-wiw#post-769144 Thu, 08 Nov 2012 15:02:07 +0000 Transcona Shannon 769144@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome to the forum Anne - it's nice to finally see you (even without your feet!). I love your hair BTW - the bang totally suits you. I don't think your style looks boring at all and we all know what it's like to have to make a small wardrobe work. These outfits are all fab, especially #3 - love the colour mix and layering.</p> <p>Looking forward to seeing mor! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-post-and-first-wiw#post-769136 Thu, 08 Nov 2012 14:57:50 +0000 Isabel 769136@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOL !! I totally believe that you have feet . WELCOME ! Well you are off to a great start. I love your use of your sweaters and color. You make red look so "neutral". I love that. Nothing about you looks boring or dated in any way. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-post-and-first-wiw#post-769121 Thu, 08 Nov 2012 14:52:04 +0000 Anne Boleyn 769121@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi everyone! I've posted a bit around but I'm new, so here's who I am! I'm really excited to meet you guys :D</p> <p>I'm currently studying in China, and I spent the last two years teaching here, so I'm pretty broke and have been living out of a big backpack since the summer of 2010. Most of my clothes are thrifted, but I can only really shop in the summers when I go home to America, sooo I get into pretty serious ruts during each school year, especially now that I've had a lot of my clothes for 1 or 2 years.</p> <p>Maybe I shouldn't care about clothes because I'm drowning in books and schoolwork, but wearing fun, cozy and colorful things makes me happy - so here I am. </p> <p>So yeah! My goals for YLF are to get inspiration from you guys and feedback on my outfits - so that I don't just wear the same sweaterdress outfit five days in a row, which is actually socially permissible here in China...</p> <p>Here I'll post a couple outfits from this week just to get my style out there I guess? I'm afraid my dorm room is too small for photographic proof of feet, but I promise I have them.</p> <p>I look forward to participating here - yay! </p>
