Sometimes they emerge unobtrusively from the most unlikely spaces. Fashion blogs, for instance, don't typically give rise to great leadership, but Angie Cox proves the exception to the rule. This cosmopolitan former fashion buyer and personal stylist has created a thriving internet community simply by drawing upon such old-fashioned virtues as intelligence, expertise, tact and kindness. She leveraged no fancy technology when launching her YouLookFab fashion blog five years ago, but her practical style advice and inclusive approach to a traditionally elitist industry soon earned her a loyal following. Within a few years she had created an international community of women who, while drawn to the site by something as ephemeral as an interest in fashion and style, remained because of the fulfilling experience Angie created in her online space. By realizing that great style can unlock hidden stores of confidence and enjoyment for women of all ages, sizes and lifestyles, Angie hit upon a universal means of fostering deeper connections. She unfailingly leads by example, dressing in a way that reflects her unique personality and projects an image of an intelligent, successful woman living life on her terms. Her insights and advice help readers view their wardrobes as enticing playgrounds rather than daunting minefields and empower women around the world to express themselves with confidence and grace. Fashion is stereotypically portrayed as a byword for all that is wrong in a consumer-driven society, but Angie provides a refreshing perspective by proving it can serve as shorthand for many of life's key lessons. By urging readers to play to their strengths, take calculated risks, do what feels natural and right, keep evolving, always put your best foot forward and always find ways to have fun, she is imparting wisdom that serves women well in all facets of their lives. When such a message is delivered in a way that attracts love and loyalty from hundreds of readers on at least four continents, it's plain to see a truly great leader is at work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/request-testimonial-for-angie#post-292661 Sat, 05 Feb 2011 17:22:30 +0000 Maya 292661@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'll do pretty much anything to get Angie back in NYC (yes, I am very selfish). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/request-testimonial-for-angie#post-292546 Sat, 05 Feb 2011 09:42:28 +0000 Scarlet 292546@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, trying to write that I realized I find it pretty hard to break out of technical writing at this point, but I just sent an e-mail with my testimonial. I am rooting for you two! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/request-testimonial-for-angie#post-292544 Sat, 05 Feb 2011 09:28:29 +0000 Ornella 292544@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm terrible when I need to write something by request as it somehow drowns the spontaneity and I cannot transfer my true thoughts and feelings to the paper (or monitor).</p> <p>But only a few weeks ago I wrote <strong><a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2010-ylf-year-in-retrospect">this</a></strong> and if my thoughts about the forum, which only exists because of Angie being who and what she is (and in all honesty, wherever I talk about YLF, it can be easily replaced with Angie's name), can be of any help, along with many other beautiful contributions from other forum members, I'd be very happy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/request-testimonial-for-angie#post-292539 Sat, 05 Feb 2011 09:13:04 +0000 Katiepea 292539@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OK, here is mine. (Apologies if it is rubbish, however it is written from the heart, which hopefully counts for something! :-))</p> <p>Dear Producers</p> <p>Angie Cox not only educates people all over the world about fashion and style, she has a special ability to make people feel wonderful about themselves! </p> <p>Let me give you an example of why she is so special. Here is what I recently wrote on a thread I posted on the forum of her website <a href="http://www.youlookfab.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.youlookfab.com</a>:</p> <p>Dear Angie,</p> <p>In case you get a chance to read this message, I wanted to thank you for educating and inspiring me to dress in a way that makes me feel so good about myself. I look and feel better about myself more now than I ever have! </p> <p>I decided to audition for a part in a prestigious choir. Your advice and inspiration meant that I truly felt I was able to at least appear outwardly confident to the audition panel, even though my insides were all mushy and twisted with nerves during the audition! </p> <p>Thank you from the bottom of my heart!</p> <p>Katiepea<br /> Australia<br /> PS: I got in! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/request-testimonial-for-angie#post-292520 Sat, 05 Feb 2011 06:14:49 +0000 catgirl 292520@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sent just now from my e-mail. Thanks, Greg - and nice writing, MaryK! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/request-testimonial-for-angie#post-292517 Sat, 05 Feb 2011 06:03:27 +0000 MsMary 292517@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie Cox has been an incredible inspiration to me. I've always been interested in fashion and style, but I always thought style was something you were born with, and I wasn't one of the chosen ones. Angie taught me that style can be learned, and it's available to anybody who is willing to explore and experiment and have fun! I've increased my style quotient 1,000% since finding Angie and her website, <a href="http://www.youlookfab.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.youlookfab.com</a>. And in the process, with Angie's kind and patient inspiration, I've gained self-confidence, self-knowledge, and a whole slew of fab new friends! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/request-testimonial-for-angie#post-292497 Sat, 05 Feb 2011 04:54:04 +0000 Lena 292497@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Isabel, I didn't read your comment before I sent mine off. So good! I also cracked up at your comment about PPL </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/request-testimonial-for-angie#post-292492 Sat, 05 Feb 2011 04:39:51 +0000 marianna 292492@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is so wonderful!

You think the PPL was funny ??? ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/request-testimonial-for-angie#post-292466 Sat, 05 Feb 2011 03:24:29 +0000 Lena 292466@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'll be sending mine from another e-mail address (at gmail), not the YLF registered one. The other address has my full name. </p> <p>Also, another idea. Greg, maybe it could also help to refer the producers to the previous comments on the anniversary blog posts. There are lots and lots of unsolicited testimonials there. Just thinking out loud. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/request-testimonial-for-angie#post-292408 Sat, 05 Feb 2011 01:31:15 +0000 Kristine 292408@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sent mine too:</p> <p>I found You Look Fab about a year ago. At first I thought a fashion site might be frivolous but I've been so inspired and encouraged by Angie Cox. She reminds us that fashion and style is about how you present yourself to the world. It can make a difference in how people treat you and the opportunities you create for yourself in life. Angie's advice and guidance has made a big difference in my own style. I'm so grateful that she's willing to share her enthusiasm and knowledge with those of us who need her help! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/request-testimonial-for-angie#post-292358 Fri, 04 Feb 2011 23:29:12 +0000 Lisa 292358@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>sent one from my personal email. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/request-testimonial-for-angie#post-292352 Fri, 04 Feb 2011 23:12:17 +0000 rae 292352@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've just sent one from my personal email!
