I was planning to do the challenge until I realized that I needed to replace worn out essentials- black merino turtleneck, black tights, and booties or Danskos for commuting. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/laps-november-shop-your-closet-challenge#post-1971737 Sun, 04 Nov 2018 04:56:15 +0000 Anonymous 1971737@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you find the right item at a good price, buy it. Otherwise you will regret it. I decided not to participate in this challenge because I shop for most holiday gifts in November and find things for myself at the same time. They are usually wild cards or a needed refresher.<br /> Shopping my closet, I am learning that I need to replace some winter skirts. I wore a fairly new dark burgundy leather skirt today that seems too short now. It will get another chance with tights. I thought it needed a burgundy top but found I was fine with mixing it with greys or other neutrals. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/laps-november-shop-your-closet-challenge#post-1971733 Sun, 04 Nov 2018 04:41:29 +0000 cindysmith 1971733@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Considering how HARD it is to find the right jeans, I say you get a "get out of jail free" card for buying them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/laps-november-shop-your-closet-challenge#post-1971695 Sun, 04 Nov 2018 00:28:06 +0000 Bijou 1971695@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stirling, the perfect jeans are elusive at best so I think buying these makes sense. For me the point of La Ped's challenge is to make mindful choices.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/laps-november-shop-your-closet-challenge#post-1971691 Sat, 03 Nov 2018 23:43:04 +0000 delurked 1971691@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Correct me if I’m wrong, but the Madewell jeans were your only pair of jeans, right? You looked and returned many jeans on your quest. You wanted to duplicate at the time and held off, convinced you should not duplicate going forward. Plus, I did wonder if your small wardrobe could hold up to a no buy month. These three jeans look like a good capsule. The last are a different fit? Double check you love both the new ones before cutting tags. </p> <p>You should maybe take a look next at your other considered needs. Long sleeve blue knit tee and adding some colored tops. Do those sound like needs for you? Good news about doing it in November is you find things you love when you can’t buy. I say as long as you hold to that criteria, you’ll have a successful November challenge either way. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/laps-november-shop-your-closet-challenge#post-1971690 Sat, 03 Nov 2018 23:23:49 +0000 LaPed 1971690@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Don't beat yourself up! I think this is the first time in half a decade when I've felt like I have my wardrobe in good enough order that I don't need to buy anything, or even look. You've cleared out literally dozens of pieces, so I bet you have a lot of immediate wardrobe needs to address. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/laps-november-shop-your-closet-challenge#post-1971685 Sat, 03 Nov 2018 22:42:23 +0000 DonnaF 1971685@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah; I lasted only two days since these turtlenecks were marked down 40% this a.m. I thought that wouldn't occur for another month. But the reviews said the necks were small so they may end up going back. And the burgundy color may not be what I want. So this may end up being a Not Shop after all since I tend to return 80 or 90% of what I order online. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/laps-november-shop-your-closet-challenge#post-1971672 Sat, 03 Nov 2018 22:02:25 +0000 JAileen 1971672@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I posted that I wanted to participate in LaP’s challenge, too. Then I ordered something 11/1. So not even one day. Only 12 hours or so. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/laps-november-shop-your-closet-challenge#post-1971669 Sat, 03 Nov 2018 21:49:06 +0000 Brooklyn 1971669@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well Sterling, you are coming off a low base. Didn’t you own “Zero” jeans just a couple of years ago? I think you must get a pass on jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/laps-november-shop-your-closet-challenge#post-1971658 Sat, 03 Nov 2018 20:26:20 +0000 kkards 1971658@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>jeans are one of those things that i feel when you find a pair (or 3) that work for you, especially if they are something that you have been looking for, you need to get them....<br />YAY, for finding jeans that work for you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/laps-november-shop-your-closet-challenge#post-1971652 Sat, 03 Nov 2018 20:12:32 +0000 Anonymous 1971652@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Challenges excite me because they force me to stretch boundaries. &nbsp;So of course I was all over LaP's Challenge. &nbsp;</p> <p>The good news is that Madewell makes great jeans. &nbsp;The bad news is I bought some Madewell jeans this afternoon. &nbsp;I lasted two and one-half days. &nbsp;So it goes. &nbsp; </p>
