The blogger behind Wit (Wearing it today) has started a new website together with a friend. They've called it Wardrobe Icons, and I think the selection is great! For me, fewer choices are always better, at least that's how I feel when I browse their site:)&nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://wardrobeicons.com">http://wardrobeicons.com</a></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-151#post-1380207 Tue, 21 Oct 2014 17:39:21 +0000 Inge 1380207@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am intrigued, Vildy, and good thing you have your shopping buddy to get those prices down.<br />Carole - Ooh, I really like that feature too.<br />Citygirldc - Excellent tips, I am going to try 13 tomorrow.</p> <p>Thanks so much ladies. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-151#post-1380175 Tue, 21 Oct 2014 16:55:24 +0000 citygirldc 1380175@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I always wanted to know how to do&nbsp;these styling tricks. </p> <p>Here's&nbsp;16 Ways to Tuck, Tie, and Twist Your Clothes like a Stylist.&nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.buzzfeed.com/jessicaprobus/roll-with-it?utm_term=oj7yc2#k4xemw">http://www.buzzfeed.com/jessic.....yc2#k4xemw</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-151#post-1380143 Tue, 21 Oct 2014 15:52:04 +0000 Carole 1380143@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>After ordering a few pieces from Ann Taylor and exploring ways to wear them I found their blog and love the "3 Ways to Wear" posts.

Different prices for different folks. And not just for clothing. I've long seen this played out on a small scale when other yard sale or thrift store shoppers are told one price and I'm told another much higher price. I've learned to have my shopping buddy inquire because she always gets told the low price. Tangential, I subscribed to J.Crew catalog for a brief time. The catalogs' contents were also shown online by fan groups. *My* version I was sent never had any of the tailored clothes I wanted to see that were in their version, just mostly shorts and other casual items. I concluded that was because my address is the poorest, most dangerous city in America. </p> <p><a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-2799360/why-coat-just-89-one-catalogue-115.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.dailymail.co.uk/fem.....e-115.html</a></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-151#post-1380008 Tue, 21 Oct 2014 10:59:17 +0000 Vildy 1380008@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>La Belle, thank you so much for the link to the Nife. I used to read her from time to time and am happily poking into it again.&nbsp; </p> <p>From another of her posts I found this morning: <br />"Why do we always need to buy more stuff? In that case clothes? I thought<br /> about this, and I realized this might be because we imagine ourselves<br /> happier owning something new, compared to our current situation. In the<br /> case of clothes, we imagine new outfits, maybe we even imagine ourselves<br /> more beautiful and stylish with these new clothes. This eternal search<br /> for happiness through new things could be what causes us to buy always<br /> more. "</p> <p>One concept intrigues me: in your link she mentions imagining 5 totally different outfits to see if a new purchase is worthwhile to her.&nbsp; To me this means 5 different Looks.&nbsp; I wonder how many different looks most people use. Seems totally opposite to the style statement concept where you strive to get your outfits to convey the same message consistently.&nbsp; I will be pondering this. Thanks again! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-151#post-1379982 Tue, 21 Oct 2014 07:00:54 +0000 Inge 1379982@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks very much for bumping, Donna.<br />And these look very interesting, La Belle and MuseumGal.
