You saved money! There is no point in buying if it's not a 10! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-went-shopping-today#post-243181 Mon, 01 Nov 2010 20:08:21 +0000 Ornella 243181@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've drastically downsized my wardrobe a few months back and started to feel liberated by 'less is more' mantra. I've started to put more thought into wearing and styling what I already had, and made conscious decision not to by anything other than stuff that looks and feels perfect. Opening my wardrobe and actually seeing all my stuff neatly organized and easy to go through is such a time-saver if nothing else. </p> <p>Then, as luck would have it, I bumped into YLF, and now there's even more awareness of what really is worth my money. I love the feeling of knowing what I want and what I don't want, as opposed to the pure dread of feeling lost in the stores. There's still a long styling road ahead of me, but I'm getting there. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-went-shopping-today#post-243148 Mon, 01 Nov 2010 19:23:16 +0000 ticksgirl 243148@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Same here. In fact, not only have I stopped buying things, I've actually thought to myself "Hmm...I have a block of time to go shopping, but I think I'd really rather go home and assess the things I've already got and work on my list of needs." Amazing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-went-shopping-today#post-243128 Mon, 01 Nov 2010 18:45:07 +0000 jen321 243128@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Me too! I went to my favorite shoe store today to get boots, and I didn't buy any! Nothing was perfect! I on the other hand wasn't happy, I was sad. haha. I just wanted to fine "the ones". (aka perfect boots) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-went-shopping-today#post-243116 Mon, 01 Nov 2010 18:26:48 +0000 Marigold 243116@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yep, I totally agree, YLF is like an invisible friend following you to the stores and making sure you only get clothes that are absolutely flattering and fab... My shopping habits used to be: go in, gather, pay and out.. Now I have a closet full of orphans, and now, whenever I go into a store, I also carry things around, think of possible combos with them, pay attention to quality etc. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-went-shopping-today#post-243095 Mon, 01 Nov 2010 17:21:45 +0000 Lisa 243095@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's great, selectivity is one way to ensure you only buy and own things you "love" for your wardrobe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-went-shopping-today#post-243083 Mon, 01 Nov 2010 17:00:13 +0000 biscuitsmom 243083@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ive been trying to do the same thing....even DH has noticed the difference! 'What, no bag'?Now I have to go thru everything I bought before that I shouldnt have...well, at least the thrift store will be happy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-went-shopping-today#post-243035 Mon, 01 Nov 2010 15:10:53 +0000 lynne 243035@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Me, too. YLF has given me more things I want to look for/need (oxfords, tunics, leans) but has also made me pickier about the things I do buy. Today I'm going to look for a pair of David Kahn jeans at one of my favorite boutiques but I won't buy them unless they are perfectly fab. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-went-shopping-today#post-242266 Sun, 31 Oct 2010 05:42:26 +0000 Marley 242266@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh - I have been experiencing the same thing recently! More times than not, I have been walking out of the stores with absolutely NOTHING! This is really HUGE for me - as I used to buy pretty freely, only because the item struck my fancy at that moment. Now, I am thoughtful (well, most of the time) and much pickier! This is fun, isn't it AG? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-went-shopping-today#post-242264 Sun, 31 Oct 2010 05:40:23 +0000 marianna 242264@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it. The same thing happens to me now. Don't want to spend a penny unless the item is totally fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-went-shopping-today#post-242260 Sun, 31 Oct 2010 05:35:18 +0000 catgirl 242260@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>and didn't buy anything. YLF is like a restraining bolt in my head! I went to a regular store, a thrift store, and a consignment store. Picked up several things but walked around to see if they stuck with me, and they didn,'t, nor were they on my list. Amazing.</p> <p>Thank you, YLF! </p>
