And that we’ve done this before- but then I see we have, 4 years then 2 years ago. Might or might not post. No promises </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oldies-but-goodies-challenge-1#post-2305411 Mon, 30 Jan 2023 16:46:44 +0000 cat2 2305411@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I will inadvertently be joining you. My pant size has reverted to what I wore in 2017, prior to a lingering injury that seems to have finally resolved. (Knock on wood.). My jacket size has not budged, thanks to the shoulders built while swimming was the only cardio I could do. So I will be remixing the pants I had tucked away from 2015-2017 with current tops and jackets! Thankfully in 2015-2017 I had a mix of bootcut jeans and the then newly-trending wide leg pants that should still work. I have found some gaps, though, as 2017 me apparently only bought black and ink blue. Anyhow, I will start the remix, along with a few new pieces, and see where I end up. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oldies-but-goodies-challenge-1#post-2305396 Mon, 30 Jan 2023 15:37:32 +0000 Cardiff girl 2305396@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m with Janet for similar reasons but would have joined in otherwise.l look forward to seeing the outfits! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oldies-but-goodies-challenge-1#post-2305364 Mon, 30 Jan 2023 13:13:37 +0000 Janet 2305364@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’ll watch from the sidelines.

The challenge will be in wearing them a new way. Why not try? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oldies-but-goodies-challenge-1#post-2305209 Sun, 29 Jan 2023 19:29:27 +0000 Indigoprint 2305209@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sounds like fun! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oldies-but-goodies-challenge-1#post-2305206 Sun, 29 Jan 2023 19:04:59 +0000 Tanya 2305206@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great idea!</p> <p>I will join in a very specific manner, for my WFH outfits specifically, and post 1-2 of them per week in February, since I was already planning something similar.   For WFH, I am doing variation of dressed-up loungewear, which includes a lot of knitted tops and toppers.   I have quite a few of older ones, which I still like, and they are still in pretty good condition so difficult to edit them out.  On the other hand, they are not supper current so I rarely wear them out of the house.  Additionally, a lot of the knitted tops are now to fitted to wear on their own, but serve as great layering pieces.  My solution is to incorporate them into WFH outfits, styled with more current bottoms, and try to get more wear out of each such piece within the next year or so,  to eventually be able to edit them out without too much guilt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oldies-but-goodies-challenge-1#post-2305201 Sun, 29 Jan 2023 18:37:05 +0000 Irina 2305201@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok, challenge excepted :)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oldies-but-goodies-challenge-1#post-2305198 Sun, 29 Jan 2023 18:14:22 +0000 kkards 2305198@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As I’m finishing up and thinking thru my Jan Challenge I’m thinking about what’s next. How about the the oldies but goodies (OBG) challenge</p> <p>I think Katerina &nbsp;originally started this challenging back 4 years ago. <a rel="nofollow" href="https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/join-me-in-oldies-but-goodies-challenge">https://youlookfab.com/welookf.....-challenge</a></p> <p>Then 2 years ago Runcarla challenged us to go even deeper and put together a week of wearing old pieces in new ways. <a rel="nofollow" href="https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oldies-but-goodies-challenge">https://youlookfab.com/welookf.....-challenge</a></p> <p>And now to keep the fashion juices going, I’m proposing we do it again. Can you put together 4-6 outfits with some of your older pieces worn in a new way? Or older pieces that you just haven’t worn in a while and want to rediscover? </p> </p> <p><b>Post as WIW OBG #x.</b> &nbsp;You can do 1 outfit a week during February or try to stretch your self to work a lot older piece into 1 week. &nbsp;What’s older is up to you. &nbsp;Tell us how you’ve worn the item in the past, bonus points if you have a picture, and show us how you’ve reworked it. &nbsp;Or tell us why you stopped wearing the item and what made you want to wear it</p> </p> <p>Are you interested? I hope see. &nbsp;Looking forward to seeing what the challenge brings. </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> </p>
