I think that’s an approach I could/should also adopt, as someone with a large closet. </p> <p>Good luck with your new adventure! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-could-be-in-big-trouble#post-1852877 Fri, 13 Oct 2017 10:14:13 +0000 Staysfit 1852877@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>First, congratulations for taking on an ambitious, challenging new business! I wish you much luck with your new venture. :-)</p> <p>I suggest you budget! I don’t exactly mean budgeting money, so maybe a better word may be edit. Become very picky. Not everything is going to be your 100%. I know this is the case. I have a medium large wardrobe. Everything in my wardrobe is very nice, but if I had to narrow it down even further, to the items that are the most flattering, and my favorite because they best represent my sense of style, only 20 or 30 garments would make the cut for each of my seasonal groups. Purchase only the items that would become these items in your wardrobe, or items that if added to your wardrobe, are nicer looking on you, better, and or significantly different than anything else you already own. How many tunic blouses do you own? Sure this looks nice, but is this really the very best tunic you have ever seen and worn?</p> <p>I have a set of questions that I ask myself before I make a purchase that helps me think carefully about whether a given item will be a treasured addition or a closet orphan. I also am working to prevent closet bloat, so I am sticking to a financial limit for my wardrobe, and a one in one out policy. Perhaps you can design some questions tailored to your needs. I suspect the questions that would be helpful for any person would be unique. I know I have asked about the types of questions people ask themselves before making purchases in one of my previous threads. I don’t have time to hunt for it now, but if I have time after work I will add the link. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-could-be-in-big-trouble#post-1852870 Fri, 13 Oct 2017 09:30:21 +0000 Anonymous 1852870@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Is there any way you can admire them as works of art? &nbsp;You don't always have to buy and own works of art. &nbsp;</p> <p>You look wonderful by the way. &nbsp;Happy. &nbsp;Healthy. &nbsp;Glowing. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-could-be-in-big-trouble#post-1852865 Fri, 13 Oct 2017 08:01:41 +0000 Sisi 1852865@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hm, no advice, sorry.&nbsp;That top is really beautiful ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-could-be-in-big-trouble#post-1852863 Fri, 13 Oct 2017 06:47:26 +0000 rachylou 1852863@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, fashion is a dangerous business... I worked in a couple of clothing shops... that's when my wardrobe positively exploded... lol. And also, I started cardboarding my hair... tons of mousse, lol. But maybe you'll get lucky and it will make you pickier, a razor sharp editor... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-could-be-in-big-trouble#post-1852850 Fri, 13 Oct 2017 04:26:58 +0000 Anonymous 1852850@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The top looks great with jeans, sort of a polished casual look. Stick to what you love and your best colors, whether in the new line or favorites in your closet. Looking so-so in something will not help sell it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-could-be-in-big-trouble#post-1852848 Fri, 13 Oct 2017 04:22:57 +0000 bridgie 1852848@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You do have a problem, and I can see why.&nbsp; That is a beautiful top.&nbsp; And you do have beautiful clothes of your own.&nbsp; Perhaps the biggest problem is that there are so many clothes available to you that you love you just can't wear all of them.&nbsp; Good luck:)</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-could-be-in-big-trouble#post-1852846 Fri, 13 Oct 2017 04:12:45 +0000 TraceyLiz65 1852846@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As you all know I am a blogger and lover of fashion and rave about being maximal and have a large wardrobe.&nbsp; &nbsp;</p> <p>This starting a business in direct sales of clothing is getting dangerous as our founder is starting to design exclusive items and after meeting her at our retreat in San Diego, I am convinced she has great taste.&nbsp;</p> <p>Anyway, wearing another top from my line, but really do not want to go all in and stop wearing clothes I have that I love.&nbsp; How to find the balance?&nbsp;&nbsp; </p>
