I think at this point, for me, a uniform is the FFBO I wear every day. Lol. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-there-a-difference-between-a-ffbo-and-a-uniform#post-1778449 Tue, 14 Feb 2017 17:19:20 +0000 unfrumped 1778449@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well there a lot in common for sure because it would be " tried and true" and therefore likely to be a favorite silhouette, aka uniform.<br /> I think if FFBO's as outfits that use set pieces that I know work together without any thinking- and likely down to footwear and any accessories. No thinking, no secind- guessing.<br /> FFBO's tend to be comfortable and forgiving as befits a hurried/ harried day , and also minimalist ( Fast!) but as noted, I could have a dressy FFBO. It's more about repeating a known combination for me, so no surprises or tossing items about while getting ready. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-there-a-difference-between-a-ffbo-and-a-uniform#post-1778444 Tue, 14 Feb 2017 16:58:27 +0000 L'Abeille 1778444@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I often like to play with proportions, or layering, or pattern mixing (as long as it's all black and white haha). So I don't have a "uniform". </p> <p>But on days I feel uninspired, or rushed, or need to plan for more than one day's outfit at a time, I'll grab a FFBO. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-there-a-difference-between-a-ffbo-and-a-uniform#post-1778434 Tue, 14 Feb 2017 16:35:45 +0000 LaPed 1778434@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you wear your FFBO every day, then it's a uniform. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-there-a-difference-between-a-ffbo-and-a-uniform#post-1778429 Tue, 14 Feb 2017 16:26:00 +0000 Mochi 1778429@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah. It's my understanding that if you're rushed/otherwise under pressure, it's what you grab easily, knowing it will work for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-there-a-difference-between-a-ffbo-and-a-uniform#post-1778422 Tue, 14 Feb 2017 16:11:15 +0000 Anonymous 1778422@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had the same thoughts as Diane. One might have a FFBO for various occasions but they may not be the same types of pieces. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-there-a-difference-between-a-ffbo-and-a-uniform#post-1778416 Tue, 14 Feb 2017 16:05:49 +0000 Anonymous 1778416@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bonnie, it means Fast Fall Back Outfit...in other words a combination of items that becomes your 'go to' combo.</p> <p>Hmm. Not all that sure of the difference Mochi...isn't a uniform slightly more set in the combination of items? Maybe an FFBO is more flexible within the combination as long as it follows a rough pattern.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-there-a-difference-between-a-ffbo-and-a-uniform#post-1778401 Tue, 14 Feb 2017 15:44:37 +0000 Bonnie 1778401@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What is FFBO?</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-there-a-difference-between-a-ffbo-and-a-uniform#post-1778387 Tue, 14 Feb 2017 15:11:42 +0000 Mochi 1778387@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm sitting with this thought for a later post.</p> <p>Thanks! </p>
