I want another pair of dark bootcut jeans that I dress up for smart casual. I want a black corset I can wear over my white blouses and a pair of lace up black boots. I also want to get more scarves and beads to add a mix to my outfits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-shopping-whats-on-your-list#post-292151 Fri, 04 Feb 2011 07:10:38 +0000 Elly 292151@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm . . . I will have to revisit this a bit later because I am still l have to deal with at least 3 more months of winter/cold weather. I actually hate "spring" here because it warms up and the snow melts, but nothing seems to grow because it is still freezing so hard at night-- so it is brown, dingy, muddy, and grey. I used to live somewhere with crocuses! In the meantime I have to do a serious evaluation of my spring/summer wardrobe. </p> <p>I will probably need to purchase a few pieces for a smart casual outfit for conducting interviews for two classes I am taking pertaining to my thesis. </p> <p>I know for sure that I will need to buy something to wear to my public thesis reception/defense.</p> <p>I also am pretty sure I will need to buy something to wear under a cap and gown if I decide to walk again (wasn't planning on it, since the circumstances are odd, but a family member suggested I might so relatives that couldn't travel the long distance to see me graduate with my BA could attend -- like my grandma!).</p> <p>True Spring/summer here starts in May, and depending on how the internship situation turns out, I could need to buy an entire business casual wardrobe or I may be camping through July!</p> <p>Then in August I will be interviewing for jobs again! and that will determine my needs again. </p> <p>Also, I need to buy bras and undies and a new lap suit ASAP!</p> <p>Wants are totally different, but I feel like I shouldn't be looking until I know more about what my situation will be. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-shopping-whats-on-your-list#post-292133 Fri, 04 Feb 2011 06:20:57 +0000 Jenava 292133@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am craving a couple of things already:<br /> A maxi dress (I like this style, but the colors are all wrong for me)<br /> Spring boots (high five, QM)<br /> cutout booties - I saw these Naya ones in the store and love the victorian vibe</p> <p>I also just bought a pair of black sandal booties and an ivory jersey dress, both of which I think I can transition into Spring with...the shoes need a keep/return post because they're a bit odd looking on my foot and also a little too high heeled (but a ball-of-foot pad could mitigate the issue if they are keepers) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-shopping-whats-on-your-list#post-292123 Fri, 04 Feb 2011 04:44:17 +0000 Marley 292123@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nude colored wedges or platform sandals<br /> Black sandals<br /> Cream or nude boots<br /> Metallic flats<br /> Green (with blue undertones) top<br /> Metallic handbag<br /> I am such a shoe and handbag junkie! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-shopping-whats-on-your-list#post-292020 Thu, 03 Feb 2011 23:58:52 +0000 kellygirl 292020@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mine:<br /> Light wash flare jeans<br /> White denim jacket (maybe) FWIW, ON has a cropped version that is quite cute and stretchy. The small is 20" long--petite is 18". The fabric is substantial but stretchy (for those of your with shoulder issues.) Very reasonably priced--worth a look.<br /> Clogs ( maybe)<br /> Replace white short sleeve and sleeveless layering tees. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-shopping-whats-on-your-list#post-292019 Thu, 03 Feb 2011 23:57:30 +0000 catgirl 292019@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nothing as of yet! First off, I can't think that far ahead. Second, I have to cull through what I have already for spring and summer - I haven't even gotten through winter yet, sadly. I am eagerly reading all of your lists to see what holes I have in my meager summer wardrobe... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-shopping-whats-on-your-list#post-292013 Thu, 03 Feb 2011 23:49:14 +0000 Queen Mum 292013@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>here's my list</p> <p>light wash flare jeans<br /> spring boots<br /> nude colored wedge sandals<br /> black wedge sandals<br /> 2 new dresses<br /> 70's inspired blouses<br /> white clams<br /> denim clams<br /> white denim jacket (?)<br /> pendant necklace</p> <p>am I forgetting anything? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-shopping-whats-on-your-list#post-292007 Thu, 03 Feb 2011 23:42:23 +0000 qfbrenda 292007@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can't get anything until I lose the last 8-9 lbs, but once I do:</p> <p>bras! asap<br /> summer dresses<br /> tops that actually fit, mostly button down<br /> couple of layering tees<br /> jeans, boot cut for boots and flats<br /> turquoise sandals<br /> cropped denim jacket</p> <p>My list goes way beyond this, but these are my priorities. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-shopping-whats-on-your-list#post-291998 Thu, 03 Feb 2011 23:32:55 +0000 Mo 291998@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A flowy, gauzey peasant style top, lap swimsuit, wide brimmed sun hat, and red lariat necklace are on the list.

I need to get all my 70's items while I can. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-shopping-whats-on-your-list#post-291736 Thu, 03 Feb 2011 15:23:06 +0000 rae 291736@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your list -- this is my first season really making one. So far I have:</p> <p>turquoise sandals (just ordered some; hope they fit)<br /> another pair of comfort sandals (also on the way)<br /> engineer striped shorts (i will make these if I have to)<br /> red cardigan (first try also on the way)<br /> red pumps<br /> bright, lightweight outer layers for spring/summer mornings and nights </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-shopping-whats-on-your-list#post-291727 Thu, 03 Feb 2011 15:09:17 +0000 Isabel 291727@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That sounds like a good plan !! I would also like a pair of nude shoes. Maybe peep-toe. I LOVE sling backs, but they don't fit me well so the "sling" is always falling and I end up with a slipper/mule. It's funny, I can't really plan too far in advance because what I put on my list is usually something that I have reached for, at the time, and realize I don't have it. If it happens more than 2 times, it goes on a list.</p> <p>I am also going to need a pair of white capris or maybe semi-wide leg, white jeans.</p> <p>Happy shopping. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-shopping-whats-on-your-list#post-291713 Thu, 03 Feb 2011 14:54:38 +0000 Niki Lea 291713@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>There are a few things on my 'must buy' list for spring/summer:</p> <p>1. Brown wedge sandals<br /> 2. Brown belt<br /> 3. Lightweight, colourful blouses<br /> 4. A pair of black pants that fit me properly (I've been indenial about the fit of my current pair)</p> <p>And thanks to Angie's latest blog posts, slingbacks. But not in black leather. Almost every shoe I own is black. It's time to branch out.</p> <p>Edited to add that I'm also going to make more of an effort to shop at a couple of local fashion consignments stores. </p>
