I'm constantly coming up with new ways to use it.&nbsp; I started off by photographing what I wore, so just 2-3 things per day, then if I had free time would pick a "category" to do... skirts one day, cardigans another, that sort of thing.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-think-it-has-happened---wardrobe-balance#post-1490077 Mon, 11 May 2015 11:04:40 +0000 Ledonna N. 1490077@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nirvana you've reached it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-think-it-has-happened---wardrobe-balance#post-1490050 Mon, 11 May 2015 09:40:29 +0000 Summer 1490050@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's great, Frannie. &nbsp;You've worked hard on your wardrobe and now it's paying dividends.

I have a job as I have mentioned before that people have a certain expectation of how I should look and I am judged as competent or not based on how i am dressed.&nbsp;<br />I used to be a lot funkier in my dress as a teacher and AP. <br />For a number of reasons I could not carry that over into my current job and needed to find the balance the worked for me. &nbsp;Instead of a funky vibe I have embrassed Dramtic and once I found that and named it things became much easier.&nbsp;<br />Also finally realizing I have two distinct styles - Work Frannie which I enjoy but I don't want to dress like this all the time and MOTG Frannie - Who I never shopped for before now I have discovered that is the jeans wearing &nbsp;graphic tee gal who I didn't even know existed. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-think-it-has-happened---wardrobe-balance#post-1489960 Mon, 11 May 2015 01:21:58 +0000 Suz 1489960@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congratulations, Frannie! And as I have said a number of times to you, I'm so impressed with how quickly you have learned all of this and put it into place. It took me several years to get to this place. It's a real comfort to know you've got your basic wardrobe in place and it can work for you. Brava!!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-think-it-has-happened---wardrobe-balance#post-1489958 Mon, 11 May 2015 01:18:53 +0000 Anonymous 1489958@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's a good feeling to get to that place, isn't it? I'm very happy with my wardrobe right now, and haven't purchased anything new in a while because I just don't need anything. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-think-it-has-happened---wardrobe-balance#post-1489957 Mon, 11 May 2015 01:13:38 +0000 frannieb 1489957@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have posted many times about how this has been a year of great purging and editing for me.&nbsp;</p> <p>Today for Mom's day I went to the mall with my DD and DH and tried on clothes and I came home with not a thing - I tried on several pair of jeans found a new promising brand - but didn't buy as I don't need jeans now.&nbsp;<br />Nothing that was in my color scheme appealed to me and the couple things I tried on were not a perfect fit. <br />I dp have a couple things I could add to my summer capsule but I'm content waiting and in no rush to fill the gaps right now.</p> <p>I think some place along the line I created a spring work and casuall wardrobe that works and statisfies me. Pretty much every day i get dressed I have a high happiness factor. &nbsp;</p> <p>I should have seen this coming as my latest capsule creation was a shoe capsule.</p> <p>Now instead of focusing on capsule building I am going to shift to getting all my clothes in stylebook and having fun creating outfits, tracking wears and seeing how it all works. </p>
