I cant take credit for the idea though, Lantana gave me the inspiration for doing it. The new SS 14 board I feel like I am actually getting to "distilling to the essence" as Caro puts it. Add Deborah in there and I am very Aussie inspired in my thinking! Haha.</p> <p>Thanks Gigi! Dividing by seasons I think helps me see trends in my preferences and reduce the overwhelming factor. I rarely wear skirts/dresses in winter (too much hassle with all those hose layers etc) but love them for spring and summer. </p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pinterest-now-you-and-i-can-get-somewhere#post-1181809 Sat, 01 Mar 2014 20:01:15 +0000 Gigi 1181809@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the Pinterest tip! I am like kellygirl and find Pinterest overwhelming. Dividing things up by season is a great idea! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pinterest-now-you-and-i-can-get-somewhere#post-1181743 Sat, 01 Mar 2014 17:57:15 +0000 kellygirl 1181743@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't know what your board looked like before but this one really looks like your style! I love how you put the items you own on it. What a great way to keep track of what you have and how you might want to wear it. I had not thought of Pinterest in that way. I was on it briefly and found it overwhelming. You have me thinking I may try it again in a new way! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pinterest-now-you-and-i-can-get-somewhere#post-1181739 Sat, 01 Mar 2014 17:52:15 +0000 Sarah A 1181739@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Rabbit and NDMom! Figuring out how i'd like to use pinterest is a bit of a process for me but I do like it as a tool.</p> <p>Beth Ann, love the banded bottom top suggestion! Will be fab with the skirts. Also, I am wanting to add a crossover top but the one I saw at Old Navy the other day had the I will pill after 2 washings look about it! So waiting for one in a better fabric to present itself </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pinterest-now-you-and-i-can-get-somewhere#post-1181669 Sat, 01 Mar 2014 16:38:38 +0000 rabbit 1181669@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Interesting! &nbsp;(I like your items). &nbsp;I'm very new to Pinterest, so this is helpful, thanks for sharing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pinterest-now-you-and-i-can-get-somewhere#post-1181666 Sat, 01 Mar 2014 16:33:08 +0000 Beth Ann 1181666@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Checked out your board --- these choices are excellent for your style and your, well, <i>life</i>style!&nbsp; I saw the Patagonia asymmetrical hem skirt, too.&nbsp; I could see you wearing that beautifully.&nbsp;&nbsp; I'd watch for a couple of banded bottom tops, too, for summer --- they create a different proportion and are really cool, as well.&nbsp; Also, you have a lot of volume in the tops, and they're lovely.&nbsp; I think this works best when on of the lines is more tailored --- shoulder line and/or sleeves, for example -- for a little structure with the flow. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pinterest-now-you-and-i-can-get-somewhere#post-1181642 Sat, 01 Mar 2014 16:02:21 +0000 NDMom 1181642@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love how you've organized your board....I'm off to go and play with mine. Also, love your style choices! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pinterest-now-you-and-i-can-get-somewhere#post-1181550 Sat, 01 Mar 2014 14:25:57 +0000 Sarah A 1181550@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I spent a few hours last night cleaning up my main "my style" Pinterest board and starting an asiprational Spring Summer board for 2014 which includes items I already own, have on order, or things I can obtain this season, in my budgeted allotment. No inspirational pinning of designer runways that dont suit my budget or lifestyle on THIS board. </p> <p>I am really seeing some themes develop versus the helter skelter I like a lot of eclectic things look on my main board.</p> <p><a href="http://www.pinterest.com/mtngirlnc/2014-spring-summer-wardrobe-aspirational/" rel="nofollow">http://www.pinterest.com/mtngi.....irational/</a></p> <p>I know doing seasonal boards is old hat to a lot of folks, but also there has been much discussion on how to use pinterest to one's advantage and I found this quite helpful. Wanted to share and observations and/or style descriptors welcome </p> <p>ETA: My initial observations are that I seem to be off of prints (with the exception of my one dress bought last year), and am favoring details sewn into the garment. And a very tight color scheme.</p>
