This takes me back to college life. My roomies and I had so much fun! It is hard to get rid of all the clothes you spent so much money on and time looking for, isnt' it? Thank goodness for ylf where we can get good advice. I really hope to have many fewer clothes and many more possibilities! Good luck. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sarah-p-closet-cleanout-help-part-two#post-19867 Mon, 11 Aug 2008 16:24:43 +0000 Sarah 19867@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Angie! If I could keep them all, I would.<br /> I want to take the opportunity to thank you all again for your advice. This process has been so helpful, and I feel so free! My closet is so organized now, you would be proud. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sarah-p-closet-cleanout-help-part-two#post-19864 Mon, 11 Aug 2008 16:18:25 +0000 Angie 19864@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm holding thumbs for the dear sweet little things. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sarah-p-closet-cleanout-help-part-two#post-19722 Sun, 10 Aug 2008 12:10:55 +0000 Sarah 19722@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>PS: I think it's funny that Ana posted the kittens on this list, as they unfortunately aren't keepers (five cats is just a bit much even for me). Cross your fingers that I'll find a good home for them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sarah-p-closet-cleanout-help-part-two#post-19712 Sun, 10 Aug 2008 03:48:00 +0000 Sarah 19712@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I do like the BR wrap top, Nicole. I do think it is a tad big, but for my husband's sake (he loves this top) I'll keep it to transition into fall. By then it will be way to big anyway.<br /> I am going to Seattle this Christmas and wore the puffer vest there last year several times. But again, if it isn't great, I won't keep it.<br /> Ana and I liked the cream cami, but were very hesitant with the teal one. So that's in the give away pile for sure.<br /> I think if I get some more jackets I probably won't need the pleather one. I have always liked the jacket except for the sleeves. They seemed odd. But if I don't get many jackets, I may hold on to it.<br /> Thanks again for your advice, everyone! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sarah-p-closet-cleanout-help-part-two#post-19663 Sun, 10 Aug 2008 00:35:39 +0000 Ana 19663@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hooray Sarah! Your husband is going to be so happy about your BR wrap top! Have you tried it under your navy corduroy jacket? That might be nice. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sarah-p-closet-cleanout-help-part-two#post-19660 Sun, 10 Aug 2008 00:26:45 +0000 Angie 19660@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>(The pictures of the kitties made my day. Thank you.)</p> <p>Wow. You worked hard. I’m impressed. Here we go on the stuff you’re not sure of:</p> <p>o Keep the BR wrap top as a layering piece for under a jacket. Same with the ruched cream cami. It’s perfect for under a biker jacket.<br /> o I actually like puffer body warmers (as I call them). I even blogged about them! But this one does not do you justice. It’s too short, too horizontally puffy and un-tailored. But quite right. I’m not into anything that looks sporty. You know me well. Thanks for being a sport!<br /> <a href="http://youlookfab.com/2006/10/16/the-body-warmer/" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/2006/10/16/the-body-warmer/</a><br /> <a href="http://youlookfab.com/2006/11/15/bodywarmers-for-blokes/" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/2006/11/.....or-blokes/</a><br /> o The faux leather jacket is too wide in the sleeves. But other than that I love it.<br /> o The rest can go. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sarah-p-closet-cleanout-help-part-two#post-19659 Sun, 10 Aug 2008 00:22:04 +0000 Ana 19659@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the issue with the BR wrap geometric top is that Sarah has lost more weight recently, and my feeling was that it was now too big, but we decided to post it here and see what everyone's opinion was. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sarah-p-closet-cleanout-help-part-two#post-19653 Sat, 09 Aug 2008 23:57:28 +0000 Nicole 19653@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the brown argyle sweater--I can see it worn with a tweed skirt, and knee high boots in the fall.</p> <p>You live in Austin? How much use do you get out of a puffer vest? My initial reaction was to keep it for winter sports (it would make a great piece to wear snowboarding, on a dry day)--but you probably don't get to do much of that in TX. :)</p> <p>I don't care much for the striped BR tank top/cami, and the crushed velvet tank. But I'm not a big fan of horizontal stripes or crushed velvet--so that's my personal issue. I remember you posted photos in the plaid top a while ago. I recall many YLFabbers liked it--how do you feel in it? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sarah-p-closet-cleanout-help-part-two#post-19617 Sat, 09 Aug 2008 20:16:08 +0000 amy29 19617@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I too suggest keeping the faux leather jacket. In the picture, it looks like a great item for this fall. What a great overhaul. I like the choices you made overall. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sarah-p-closet-cleanout-help-part-two#post-19609 Sat, 09 Aug 2008 19:31:40 +0000 Sarah 19609@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had a blast! Thank you again Ana for helping me out like this.<br /> I love my puffer vest...I wore it with a white and gray striped turtle neck last fall. But, as with the rest of this, if it isn't great, I don't want to keep it. I'd rather have less great than lots of okay.<br /> <a href="http://letitrainagain.blogspot.com/2008/08/gap-puffer-vest.html" rel="nofollow">http://letitrainagain.blogspot.....-vest.html</a><br /> Ana, now you can see how red my hair used to be! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sarah-p-closet-cleanout-help-part-two#post-19605 Sat, 09 Aug 2008 19:15:39 +0000 Becky 19605@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What an effort you two put into this project! The only two items I felt were possibly keepers were the BR wrap top, which I think looks nice on you, and the cream ruched cami, which is a good color for you, Sarah, and also adds volume on top to balance your lower half. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sarah-p-closet-cleanout-help-part-two#post-19595 Sat, 09 Aug 2008 18:58:15 +0000 Dani 19595@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, Sarah, that's quite a few pictures you posed for! I'm amazed you looked so perky in them I get tired of being in front of the camera after a little while.</p> <p>I like the BR wrap top and the jacket. The camis (cream ruched and velvet) just don't do justice to you. The striped BR top is alright but you can definitely do better. I like the puffer vest, but I'm a sporty type :)</p> <p>Your kittens are too cute! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sarah-p-closet-cleanout-help-part-two#post-19590 Sat, 09 Aug 2008 18:19:29 +0000 Sihaya 19590@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ana - you are such a good friend and I can imagine how fun it must have been for both of you. Antje and I are planning on doing something similar. Of the stuff you listed under really need help with I would vote for ultimately getting rid of most of them other than the faux leather jacket which seems fine to me. </p> <p>The BR wrap top seems a bit noisy. I think the cream ruched cami and striped BR top and velvet long cami don't allow Sarah's beautiful to come through in its full glory. </p> <p>I'm torn about the puffer vest. I can actuall see it working with the right outfit. Something spunky. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sarah-p-closet-cleanout-help-part-two#post-19578 Sat, 09 Aug 2008 15:47:45 +0000 Ana 19578@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Everybody!</p> <p>So here's part two of the Sarah P (sarbear1121) closet cleanout, which is things that she should keep until she can replace them, and things we're not sure about.
