So often the things I really want for filling in wardrobe holes just aren't being offered in the stores. <br />It sounds like you are sticking to your priorities, and you're just not seeing what you are looking for at the moment. I'd stay the course.</p> <p>Reading your profile, I noticed you are looking to create some looks for work that are comfortable. Your desires in that area remind me of forum member <a href="https://youlookfab.com/member/pamela83/" rel="nofollow">Peri</a>. You might find some of her posts inspiring. She has an easy, comfortable, and pulled-together style that might resonate with you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/from-one-extreme-to-another#post-1577881 Thu, 29 Oct 2015 05:05:21 +0000 rachylou 1577881@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Is there an overall style that attracts you? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/from-one-extreme-to-another#post-1577835 Thu, 29 Oct 2015 02:01:48 +0000 Anonymous 1577835@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Have you tried going to the thrift shop with your shopping list and really sticking to it? Same thing at other stores. Don't allow yourself to get distracted from your list. Can you return things so that you can take them home to play in your closet before committing? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/from-one-extreme-to-another#post-1577810 Thu, 29 Oct 2015 01:16:58 +0000 Renee P 1577810@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My mother manages a thrift shop where she lives. We got discounts, so it was very easy to go "Wheee! Look at all these oufits!" and wind up with lots of orphans, things I don't end up wearing, going a little TOO far to the boho side, and things that aren't in the most flattering color palette.</p> <p>I could barely fit things in my closet. I wound up getting rid of a bunch of things that just weren't flattering.</p> <p>&nbsp;So now I go to clothing stores and whatnot and I'm just staring at things and now I can't decide what to buy. I wind up going home empty handed.</p> <p>I did write a shopping list of what I am missing to fill in some holes, but I still haven't really found anything that moves me.</p> <p>This makes me feel like I'm in some kind of fashion rut. </p>
