You look great in every one of them. I agree with Parsley, your photos look as if they might have been pulled from a catalog, except better somehow, because we know you live in those clothes.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ppc-week-in-review-1#post-907336 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 04:36:23 +0000 Ingunn 907336@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Elisabeth, my tee is from Lindex. It is with scoop neck and long sleeves. </p> <p>Suz, I am playing with the idea of making a smaller challenge next week, like getting inspired by various color combinations etc. </p> <p>Parsley, I know you did. I'm flattered </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ppc-week-in-review-1#post-907275 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 03:23:21 +0000 Transcona Shannon 907275@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You have got such an innate sense of style Ingunn. It seems so instinctual to you. Everything looks just PERFECT. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ppc-week-in-review-1#post-907239 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 02:36:18 +0000 Parsley 907239@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Ingunn, I absolutely meant that as a compliment! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ppc-week-in-review-1#post-907234 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 02:28:06 +0000 Elizabeth P 907234@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Great job!<br /><br />Can you share where your blue/white tee that you are wearing in #4 is from?&nbsp; I've been looking for something like this, but most seem to have necklines that are too high for me.&nbsp; this one looks much more like what I'm after.&nbsp; Not that we have access to the same shops... but thought I'd ask anyway! :)<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ppc-week-in-review-1#post-907222 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 01:52:42 +0000 Jaime 907222@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Love this! It is hard to believe you don't have an enormous closet full of every possible piece of clothing, since each outfit looks like you had just the right thing! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ppc-week-in-review-1#post-907211 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 01:26:03 +0000 Suz 907211@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Ingunn, I know exactly how you feel. I normally dress a lot on the weather or my feeling for the day's activities, but at the same time I love the planning that the challenges force upon me, and when they are over I feel at a loss. Ornella used to set her own challenges to counteract this. And it really worked for her. I might aim to do something similar. I didn't think I was really at the point where I knew what it would be valuable to challenge myself to do, but once I get there, I will set the challenges.&nbsp;<br /><br />I think you were very true to who you are but you also combined things in different ways. The blue dress got to come out for some play (and it is great on you!!) and the green jacket with orange shoes is divine!&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ppc-week-in-review-1#post-907071 Sat, 13 Apr 2013 21:09:30 +0000 Ingunn 907071@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Thank you for the boost, everyone! I loved the challenge, and feel already lost in regard of&nbsp;next week's outfits. No movie posters to help me get by. What to do?&nbsp;<br /><br />Parsley, I take that as a compliment. I have no pieces from J crew as of yet, but that will change, as J crew is my favorite candy store at the moment. I love browsing their website https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ppc-week-in-review-1#post-907014 Sat, 13 Apr 2013 19:01:20 +0000 Parsley 907014@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Ingunn, you look stunning in every one of your outfits!<br />I couldn't help thinking as I looked at your pictures that you look like you could be in ads for J Crew! I don't even know if any of your pieces are from there, but you really capture the style esthetic.<br />Fabulous! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ppc-week-in-review-1#post-907009 Sat, 13 Apr 2013 18:56:49 +0000 Aida 907009@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ A great week Ingunn, and definitely true to your style sensibilities with some extra playfulness coming through. Fab ^^ QUITE like the diverse color palettes you have going here, and especially fond of #4 on the left. So cheerful! I think the mall looks were of adoration for the lovely lady rocking the black, white, and red https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ppc-week-in-review-1#post-906920 Sat, 13 Apr 2013 16:26:44 +0000 Day Vies 906920@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I love them all. Your Tiffany's inspiration in spot on especially with the cat!&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ppc-week-in-review-1#post-906844 Sat, 13 Apr 2013 15:17:48 +0000 Janet 906844@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As fab as you look in all of these, I'd have to say you could not be more gorgeous than #3-4. What a beautiful look on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ppc-week-in-review-1#post-906842 Sat, 13 Apr 2013 15:15:25 +0000 Angie 906842@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You ROCKED the challenge, Ingunn! Queen Playful Modern Classic does not disappoint :)<br /><br />CanNOT pick a favourite. <br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ppc-week-in-review-1#post-906734 Sat, 13 Apr 2013 12:52:31 +0000 chouette22 906734@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Wow - what a great week! I just added this thread to my Favorites for future inspiration. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ppc-week-in-review-1#post-906706 Sat, 13 Apr 2013 11:30:01 +0000 Tanya 906706@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Ingunn, you have had a absolutely amazing week, all the outfits are so amazing that I can not pick a favorite. &nbsp;I really love you&nbsp;interpretations, they are very true to the movies and yet very you. &nbsp;I have no trouble picking the favorite photo though - middle one in #3. &nbsp;Your kitty is gorgeous and steals the show!<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ppc-week-in-review-1#post-906688 Sat, 13 Apr 2013 07:15:41 +0000 Ingunn 906688@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I have enjoyed every minute of this wonderful challenge. The movie poster idea was awesome, it gave ample possibilities to take each theme in so many directions. I love having a starting point for my outfits, and this one was better than most. It was a true pleasure to see all your takes on the themes, too, and I got further inspiration to experiment.&nbsp;<br /><br />My starting point for all the posters was the colors. I'm always drawn to colors first when I choose outfits.&nbsp;&nbsp;I think I was true to my style personae (modern classic) throughout the week - not that I intended to, on the contrary. RATE is hard, and urban grit, too.&nbsp;I got confirmed once again&nbsp;that I have enough clothes, but I also had a feeling that by now, you must have seen literally everything I have in my wardrobe. There was perhaps no real element of surprise in my outfits? I'm curious if you noticed anything that was&nbsp;slightly off my usual track.<br /><br /><b>#1 Monday: Indiana Jones</b><br />I really liked this outfit, which was in a slightly unusual color combination for me. A change in scarf would alter this base very quickly. I also thought of using my blue/green silk scarf which would bring a more s/s feeling.<br /><b>#2 Tuesday: Star Wars</b><br />The color combination in this poster is beautiful.&nbsp;My cobalt dress had it debut and I really liked the outfit. Normally I would omit the plastic pearls, and maybe choose the black bag. The cognac leather is a nice complementary contrast with the cobalt.<br /><b>#3-4 Breakfast at Tiffany's</b><br />It's no secret that I love dressing up in classic silhouettes. However, the pairing of apple green, orange and cobalt blue from the poster frame&nbsp;was new and exciting, and I plan to wear this as soon as possible. I really like to wear dresses layered with tees, which was what I really wore that day.<br /><b>#5 Metropolis</b><br />This was a bit harder for me. I love the lines, the modern theme and the symmetry, but I thought the colors were bland. I like more contrast. The scarf gave a little texture and light to the outfit.<br /><b>#6 Vertigo</b><br />The color scheme was evident, and I tried to play out a little imbalance by placing the red and the white at the edges. I really enjoyed this outfit, actually. When I went down to the local mall yesterday afternoon, I received a &nbsp;lot of stares! I don't know what they thought, but at least I got noticed. In a sea of utilitarian jackets and jeans I guess I was the odd one.&nbsp;<br /><br />Thank you for looking, and thank you for all the detailed comments I already have received. Thank you, Ornella, for being the best host ever!
