Metallic is extremely versatile. You won’t look back ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/just-getting-started#post-74837 Thu, 25 Jun 2009 13:14:51 +0000 rivoli 74837@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone! </p> <p>Sorry, you won't be seeing any photos of my hair. I'm way too shy to post pictures online. But I'm happy with the way it turned out. I think it really helped that I knew what I wanted before going in. Usually I don't, and I end up with some sort of poodle-looking cut. :P</p> <p>O.k., most of you recommend metallic or white bags so I guess that's what I'll be trying on. I really like the idea of a silver bag for summer. I've never worn that much "shine" though, so it should be interesting. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/just-getting-started#post-74809 Thu, 25 Jun 2009 07:51:52 +0000 Louise 74809@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you're after a bright bag i'm loving yellow at the moment great for summer x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/just-getting-started#post-74793 Thu, 25 Jun 2009 04:18:43 +0000 Ana 74793@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome to the forum, Rivo! We'd love to see a photo of your new haircut! </p> <p>I vote for white or metallic. Those are both great options for Summer. I also like to wear bright colors, and white seems to just go with everything I have. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/just-getting-started#post-74789 Thu, 25 Jun 2009 04:08:42 +0000 chewyspaghetti 74789@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congrats on getting your hair done, rivoli! When do we get to see it? :)<br /> I think ballet flats and fashion sneakers are a great idea for summer. Black would give you that "bookend" look, but white or metallic would be a good bet, too. Bright/white/metallic bags seem to be *everywhere*! Just take a stroll through any mall and you are bound to find some. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/just-getting-started#post-74778 Thu, 25 Jun 2009 03:42:08 +0000 planetamy 74778@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What about white? As Angie says, white is the ultimate summery color! And, as I've been looking for a white bag for a while, I've noticed they are EVERYWHERE. Should be fairly easy to find one that fits the bill. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/just-getting-started#post-74770 Thu, 25 Jun 2009 03:26:04 +0000 shell 74770@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i love the idea of a metallic! it will go with most outfits and will look great against a bright color palette! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/just-getting-started#post-74765 Thu, 25 Jun 2009 03:21:01 +0000 SilveryGina 74765@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What about a silver or pewter? That would look good with your bright colors and the silver in particular would be a bit more summery than black. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/just-getting-started#post-74739 Thu, 25 Jun 2009 01:50:40 +0000 rivoli 74739@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Following YLF's advice to take care of hair and shoes first, I got my hair cut &#38; colored today. </p> <p>Since I like modern lines and bold colors, I opted for a dark, almost-black color (which happens to be my natural color, before it started to go gray and faded.) I also went from a soft rounded shape to a more defined, geometric shape cut straight across the back. (It's still curly and layered so no fear of looking too severe.)</p> <p>Now I need to look for some comfy shoes. I'll probably go for a black ballet flat of some sort, and maybe some colorful fashion sneakers. Am I on the right track?</p> <p>I also want to find some nice summer bags. I'm looking for a roomy bag and a wristlet. Any suggestions for someone who likes to wear bright blues, fuschias, and purples? (And lots of black too.) I love the Coach wristlets<br /> <a href="http://tinyurl.com/coach-wristlets" rel="nofollow">http://tinyurl.com/coach-wristlets</a> and I hope I can find a suitable color to go with everything else. I'd like to find something other than black for my summer bag. </p>
