I like to have a handful of favorite outfit combinations for rush days. It can be work to have a preplanned group of outfits to reach for but it's worth it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-style-in-2026#post-2403072 Mon, 12 Jan 2026 21:33:39 +0000 Suz 2403072@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It sounds to me as if the two are connected a bit...if you start to plan, you'll have a better idea of WHICH tops you need and why you are lacking them. So the two goals are quite complementary. Please let us know what you discover as you go along and maybe we can help you brainstorm and source what you need!&nbsp;</p> <p>I tend to be flexible because of weather changes etc and mood and don't plan in advance except for travel and special occasions. And YLF challenges, as Roberta mentioned.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-style-in-2026#post-2403040 Mon, 12 Jan 2026 15:28:43 +0000 Helena 2403040@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very practical goals, and I like how you've identified how one goal drives others ... here to cheer you on as the year progresses! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-style-in-2026#post-2403036 Mon, 12 Jan 2026 15:13:15 +0000 AndiB 2403036@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I sort of do this, but if I don't remain committed to WEARING what I put together, I default to FFBO's of jeans, booties, layering top, blazer or cardi, accessories.&nbsp; Nothing wrong with the fall back, but I actually hang full outfits (Using a bended hanger to connect the bottom's hanger to the tops hanger) including all accessories.&nbsp; So yes, flexible, but also yes to wearing what I put together!&nbsp; I'm really trying to be slow buy (started with NO buy, but failed already when I purchased some new Madewell dark wash wide denim over the weekend, oops) so putting together new configurations of pieces I already own - shopping my closet - feels a little like shopping.&nbsp; A little. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-style-in-2026#post-2403033 Mon, 12 Jan 2026 14:23:31 +0000 cat2 2403033@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hang a handful outfits in advance and just pick one and add accessories. It’s made morning much less stressful. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-style-in-2026#post-2403029 Mon, 12 Jan 2026 13:32:24 +0000 RobinF 2403029@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Back when I worked in a professional office, I planned out my outfits for the week. Worked great. Now I just do it the night before. Gives me a bit of flexibility but still makes my morning easier.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-style-in-2026#post-2402974 Sun, 11 Jan 2026 19:42:11 +0000 aloha emily 2402974@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you for all the encouragement! Just finished ironing outfits for Monday and Tuesday- baby steps!</p> <p>I’ll start another thread about tops and why I struggle. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-style-in-2026#post-2402946 Sun, 11 Jan 2026 05:34:51 +0000 Star (Lise) 2402946@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this can work. You will still have a choice on most days, with the exception of Friday. That would be enough choice for my mood dressing needs.</p> <p>I wonder why you struggle with tops. Perhaps we can thrash it out with you here on the forum. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-style-in-2026#post-2402930 Sun, 11 Jan 2026 00:29:53 +0000 LJP 2402930@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this is quite reasonable and achievable. When I worked where it mattered, I planned a week's worth of outfits too. It meant every morning was just that much less work :).&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-style-in-2026#post-2402925 Sun, 11 Jan 2026 00:02:10 +0000 Jaime 2402925@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Planning and prepping is a great goal, but I agree you probably want some flexibility to account for weather and mood. I find tops trickier than bottoms too, will be following. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-style-in-2026#post-2402917 Sat, 10 Jan 2026 23:06:25 +0000 Angie 2402917@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Emily, </b>energetic&nbsp;<b></b>goals! </p> <p>By all means keep your plans flexible. That way you can stray from said planned outfit for the day, and wear what is easier or more what you feel like at the time So planning is good, and so is setting a challenge. And know that you can also switch to Plan B!</p> <p>As for tops, here to help you figure things out :)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-style-in-2026#post-2402911 Sat, 10 Jan 2026 20:55:46 +0000 Roberta 2402911@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I used to plan a week at a time, but only in general, like, "wear dresses all week" or "wear somethng red every day". It was very helpful when I had closet fatigue.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-style-in-2026#post-2402892 Sat, 10 Jan 2026 18:02:06 +0000 MsMary 2402892@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, you are ambitious! I have planned a week at a time on occasion and it's been great once it was done, but for me it was too much work to be worth it. That said, I have often had an idea of what I was going to wear for a week and that has really been helpful. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-style-in-2026#post-2402890 Sat, 10 Jan 2026 17:44:21 +0000 aloha emily 2402890@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My two style goals for 2026 are</p> <p>1. Plan my outfits a week at a time. This goal comprises lots of little goals too- ironing the clothes I plan to wear, paying attention to details and accessories, being intentional in expressing my style words through my outfits. </p> <p>2. Figure out tops. Tops are so hard for me!!! Trousers, shorts and skirts are easy-peasey, but tops are where I struggle. My collection of bottoms grows, but I still can’t get dressed easily because I don’t have good tops to make the beautiful bottoms work. </p> <p>Here’s to a joyful, stylish new year!! </p>
