They are #oldgoals I wonder what they’re doing at Mierendorfplatz, in the last pic before the video. It’s across town from where he lives. I have to go there later today, to the office on the bottom-left of the sign above their heads. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-bi-weekly-links-here-106#post-2169928 Thu, 04 Feb 2021 03:49:52 +0000 Mary Beth (formerly LBD) 2169928@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it’s only one link per member, but I have two, so I’ll let you pick your favorite. </p> <p>In this corner, we have...</p> <p>This clergywoman from Boston, who wore the same black merino wool dress for 100 days, styles differently every time (spoiler alert: nobody noticed.)</p> <p><a href="https://www.newscentermaine.com/article/news/local/new-england-woman-wears-same-dress-for-100-days-in-a-row/97-56701b91-610b-4881-a9d5-d6a70d81d300?fbclid=IwAR3WIHfBEVeYC5ejkppcKWJTE3-vjMdrLbsUIjUZ-HSXxJDMENffqz5Gyrg" rel="nofollow">https://www.newscentermaine.co.....Nffqz5Gyrg</a></p> <p>And in the other corner, we have:</p> <p>The Stylish Elderly Duo With Impeccable Fashion</p> <p><a href="https://mymodernmet.com/gunther-krabbenhoft-britt-kanja-senior-style/?fbclid=IwAR0zzS0tHUAeMMMt0YmANJVnZn-xfmoM4iVVIun_kISYTl2DMme3LXAXKoQ" rel="nofollow">https://mymodernmet.com/gunthe.....me3LXAXKoQ</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-bi-weekly-links-here-106#post-2169921 Thu, 04 Feb 2021 00:53:17 +0000 JAileen 2169921@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here’s the link Joy was looking for:<br /><div><br /></div><div><a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.cbsnews.com/video/the-500-year-history-of-the-pocket/">https://www.cbsnews.com/video/.....he-pocket/</a><br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-bi-weekly-links-here-106#post-2169917 Wed, 03 Feb 2021 23:46:44 +0000 Anonymous 2169917@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Eye candy braids :)<br /> <a href="https://www.boredpanda.com/intricate-braids-by-self-taught-artist/" rel="nofollow">https://www.boredpanda.com/int.....ht-artist/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-bi-weekly-links-here-106#post-2169892 Wed, 03 Feb 2021 20:08:00 +0000 Inge 2169892@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>Thanks so much everyone, all such excellent links!</div><div>And Jenn, that level of wardrobe tracking: WOW!-)<br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-bi-weekly-links-here-106#post-2169834 Wed, 03 Feb 2021 14:34:41 +0000 unfrumped 2169834@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree 426 sounds like a lot, but my understanding is that he’s including everything , socks, uw. If a person counts every “ cloth” and wearable item ( and footwear) including socks , exercise, pj, casual , lounge, gear, ties/scarves, bags, belts, the wardrobe numbers for many would be a lot higher than generally reported. And especially if one wears a business formal wardrobe daily , does special sports, and has 4 seasons. </p> <p>So I like the idea of applying the analyses ( thematically- I don’t think I will do a spreadsheet) to all categories , even though some of them don’t cost as much or take up as much room. For example, I’m not limited to weekly laundry and have more time now, plus “ alternatives “ to being sure I can find matching black work socks or different tights in a big hurry, </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-bi-weekly-links-here-106#post-2169821 Wed, 03 Feb 2021 14:03:48 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2169821@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nikki, a shaket and a coatigan are all a person needs :)</p> <p>Jenn, 426 items in 3 years? Yowza! No wonder he wants to get a handle on what he’s buying, especially with $1000 in shirts every year. Interesting that he doesn’t see much churn/many green dots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-bi-weekly-links-here-106#post-2169818 Wed, 03 Feb 2021 13:47:39 +0000 unfrumped 2169818@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jenn, that guy’s analysis is fab and captures everything — CPW as good info yet why it’s not the only issue, “ competing for wears”, item “ love ” as a guide, assessing the value-experience of certain quality in items, benchwarmers - the whole shebang but in slightly different language. </p> <p>I found it very inspiring for my own wardrobe assessment and editing, just because of that slightly different take on even fundamentals , which gives a fresh perspective. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-bi-weekly-links-here-106#post-2169720 Wed, 03 Feb 2021 00:28:46 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2169720@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This refers to events in Germany, but given that Corona is world-wide, I bet the problem extends far beyond this country’s borders. We’ve talked on YLF about high-priced producers destroying unused wares to keep prices up. Now it turns out H&amp;M, Amazon, and others are doing the same with the surplus left after the lockdowns this winter. The Germany-specific part is that there is apparently a new law here that forbids companies from doing this, so Greenpeace is pushing to have that enforced. I doubt that law exists everywhere, but assume the concern might. </p> <p>A tip on foreign-language pages that I’ve recently learned: on an iphone, you can tap on the “AA” to the left of the field where the url is and then set up translation. It’s ridiculously quick &amp; easy. If it exists on other phones, I’d like to hear about it. </p> <p>Without further ado, here is the link: <a href="https://greenwire.greenpeace.de/inhalt/500-millionen-kleidungsstuecke-zuviel" rel="nofollow">https://greenwire.greenpeace.d.....cke-zuviel</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-bi-weekly-links-here-106#post-2169673 Tue, 02 Feb 2021 21:43:52 +0000 kkards 2169673@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><a href="https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.wellandgood.com/nike-go-flyease/amp/" rel="nofollow">https://www.google.com/amp/s/w.....yease/amp/</a></p> <p>Because all of us deserve to be able to be athletes if we want<br /> And it’s super cool looking </p> <p>The Nike Go FlyEase is the brand’s first-ever hands-free sneaker, designed to remove the barrier to entry that lacing brings to some athletes with disabilities. Using a bi-stable heel hinge and “kickstand heel,” the shoe can be put on and taken off without the use of one’s hands. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-bi-weekly-links-here-106#post-2169672 Tue, 02 Feb 2021 21:38:40 +0000 Carla 2169672@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG! &nbsp;Jenn, that guy is brilliant (and funny!) &nbsp;I think this article answered all my questions for the next 10 years. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-bi-weekly-links-here-106#post-2169663 Tue, 02 Feb 2021 20:47:30 +0000 Jenn 2169663@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here's a guy who took wardrobe tracking to the next level:<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.reaktor.com/blog/why-ive-tracked-every-single-piece-of-clothing-ive-worn-for-three-years/">https://www.reaktor.com/blog/w.....hree-years</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-bi-weekly-links-here-106#post-2169661 Tue, 02 Feb 2021 20:26:51 +0000 Anonymous 2169661@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I watched CBS Sunday Morning program and they had an interesting history of the pocket, especially in women’s garments. I sorry I could not find a link but you may find it an interesting fashion topic. At one time a man was considered rude for putting his hands in his pockets.
