I love that they've styled the clothes switches with keeping the poses. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-137#post-1298400 Wed, 09 Jul 2014 10:21:32 +0000 Vildy 1298400@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That lifehacker tip is one I use constantly, particularly with keep/purge. <br />Only problem with women's clothes is that when you type "women", they <br />include the "men" part of the word. :D&nbsp; I also do this with Pinterest and the reason he probably doesn't is Pinterest is female-user heavy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-137#post-1298235 Wed, 09 Jul 2014 03:24:58 +0000 geargirl 1298235@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I thought this was an interesting idea: Use Google image search to match items that are difficult to match in your wardrobe.

I thought the same thing. ...matronly. However, I get it. So many of today's beautiful clothes don't&nbsp;function&nbsp;for working women....too short, too tight, too flashy.</p> <p>Nina's&nbsp;colors are nice for older faces...no black! She offers great fabrics that are&nbsp;packable. It seems like&nbsp;her stores&nbsp;could be one stop shopping for busy professional women.</p> <p>It seems to me that there is still an opening in the fashion biz for another company like McLemore's&nbsp;&nbsp;...one with a younger vibe.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-137#post-1297399 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 07:21:32 +0000 Inge 1297399@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Off to read the articles.

I think this article in stylecaster resonates with the situation. I found the reminder tips very helpful.
