Pinning some for myself! You are doing a great exercise Runcarla. I too maintain a pinterest board. But mostly of styles that I could recreate with existing items. I am afraid I can't be of more help as I suck at analysis! But I think knowing where to head is a good start </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-pinterest-board-analyasis#post-1190117 Mon, 10 Mar 2014 02:35:00 +0000 Gigi 1190117@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Runcarla, that is a great idea to maintain your board like you do. And I hadn't thought of creating a fantasy board. I looked back over some of your WIWs, and it seems like the J Crew embroidered merino sweater is a real-life way of incorporating some of your rich, ornamental fantasy pieces. I hadn't thought of incorporating fantasy stuff into my normal wear like that.</p> <p>I will be honest and say that I don't feel that I know your style well enough to comment on whether you are moving in the direction of your objectives. I will say that on the WIWs that I looked at where you posted your inspiration pics, some of the inspirations&nbsp;had metallic or shiny elements (usually jewelry) that were not present in your own version. I don't see much jewelry on your Pinterest board, however. Are accessories that impart a metallic shine (whether it be shoes, jewelry, or a scarf with metallics) something that you wish to exclude? Or is that something you want to consider adding?&nbsp;</p> <p>I did see some animal print in your WIWs, but I don't remember seeing a lot of stripes. I think that stripes would be a great place to start, as there should be a lot of striped tops out for spring. Or maybe you have them but they just haven't shown up in a WIW?</p> <p>I really enjoyed your boards!!! It makes me want to try to get back to Pinterest. I always peter out...too much work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-pinterest-board-analyasis#post-1189928 Sun, 09 Mar 2014 22:37:31 +0000 Carla 1189928@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've been keeping a Pinterest aspirational fashion board for about a year now.  Periodically I review it and edit it down to 50 images that most represent where I want to be with my style.  Today I did a little analysis of the 50 images...</p> <p>-28 images are 'body con' with close vs loose fitting garments (ex: 28 t-shirts or sweaters vs 9 button downs)</p> <p>-28 trouser outfits</p> <p>-11 trousers rolled to reveal the ankle\</p> <p>-11 white trousers</p> <p>-5 classic jackets</p> <p>-5 beige trench coalts </p> <p>-12 skirts/dresses</p> <p>-7 striped tops</p> <p>-a navy, black, white, grey, cognac palate dominates</p> <p>-little pattern (animal print), or colour-some red, yellow, green</p> <p>-mixed med (leather, lace with fabric)</p> <p><a href="http://www.pinterest.com/runcw/style-inspiration/" rel="nofollow">http://www.pinterest.com/runcw/style-inspiration/</a></p> <p>In some ways, this is accurate, but IRL I probably wear dresses and skirts much more, and I DO wear more colour, especially in summer.</p> <p>Bonus boards: </p> <p>Hair - I have been going shorter and am 1 cut away from a long on top pixie!</p> <p><a href="http://www.pinterest.com/runcw/hairstyles/" rel="nofollow">http://www.pinterest.com/runcw/hairstyles/</a></p> <p>And just for fun...</p> <p><a href="http://www.pinterest.com/runcw/fantasy-fashion/" rel="nofollow">http://www.pinterest.com/runcw/fantasy-fashion/</a></p> <p>I would be interested to learn what you think.  I haven't posted WIW's much recently due to poor photo conditions/opportunities, but does it seem that I am moving in the direction of my sartorial objectives?  </p>
