It's just "me", I guess. Casual classic? Modern Classic?</p> <p>I looked at all the outfits again and I'm amazed and impressed that each one truly reflects the maker's style! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-definition-challenge-casual#post-716465 Sun, 09 Sep 2012 20:43:57 +0000 cjh 716465@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just saw the challenge. Here is my Polyvore. I don't think I would wear a black tneck with jeans (although I have one), but I also chose an alternate top - gray/white stripe blouse. The first items I picked are based on some that I already own: olive corduroy blazer, blue/green/turquoise print scarf, Skechers slip on tennies. All really looked fine with the black and I am definitely low contrast, so maybe I would wear this after all. The alternate top is going to be paired with a new gray and gold striped cardi - with wider stripes than this one has but the colors are similar. </p> <p>The brown/gray/white/pink/red scarf just appealed to me, so I threw it in. would possibly wear with the black tneck and a black blazer.<br /> Thanks for the challenge - this was fun, and I enjoyed looking at the other combos!</p> <p><a href="http://www.polyvore.com/jeans_black_top_ylf_casual/set?id=58495199#stream_box" rel="nofollow">http://www.polyvore.com/jeans_.....stream_box</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-definition-challenge-casual#post-716404 Sun, 09 Sep 2012 17:55:08 +0000 qpswan 716404@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great posts, Ladies!

I just chose items based on visual interest. I have no idea what brand/cost each of these things are.

I use Skitch for Mac, and a great option for screen capture in Windows is Jing by TechSmith.</p> <p>I'm really enjoying your posts, everybody! It's fun to see how different a canvas of black tees and blue jeans can be interpreted - or any other basic starting point.</p> <p>Thanks, Jayne - if I ever win a lot of money, this ensemble might come true:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-definition-challenge-casual#post-715961 Sat, 08 Sep 2012 20:10:57 +0000 Gaylene 715961@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Instead of using the template, try clicking "New" and then just drag stuff on to the canvas. You can re-size by clicking and dragging.</p> <p>I didn't want to set up an account, so I just used the screen capture to save the image to my desktop. If you use a Mac, use Command/Shift/4 to get the crosshair icon that you can use to drag over the screen to copy and save the section that you want to the desktop. It's been too long since I've worked in Windows, so I can't remember the command for that action in Windows. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-definition-challenge-casual#post-715954 Sat, 08 Sep 2012 19:57:57 +0000 Anonymous 715954@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm still working on it... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-definition-challenge-casual#post-715950 Sat, 08 Sep 2012 19:51:16 +0000 qpswan 715950@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Try typing the word accessories into the text box.

Help?</p> <p>Well, I have no idea how to post my polyvore. I'm not techie at all. It won't let me copy and paste, so....</p> <p>I don't wear pants. I chose a maxi skirt, black tee, snakeskin bag and B/W Chanel flats. I wasn't able to add any other accessories so it was a boring look compared to me in real life. Sorry! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-definition-challenge-casual#post-715925 Sat, 08 Sep 2012 19:20:46 +0000 Gaylene 715925@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>First time I've used Polyvore; it was fun. I'd call my casual look Old Lady Chic. This is pretty close to what I wear almost constantly--with a scarf added on for a bit of color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-definition-challenge-casual#post-715877 Sat, 08 Sep 2012 18:35:56 +0000 jayne 715877@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>neat idea...and your post of red and black, beautiful classic</p> <p>and Ingunn, LOVE your post! I can definitely see you in this. Like the red over black and the olive over both. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-definition-challenge-casual#post-715844 Sat, 08 Sep 2012 18:07:24 +0000 Ingunn 715844@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How fun! I do have a Polyvore and pinterest account, but somehow I didn't manage to save my draft today - don't know why. I took a screenshot of it instead, hope that's ok with you.</p> <p>What my style persona is, is a tricky question. I believe this is a modern classic with a sporty twist. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-definition-challenge-casual#post-715768 Sat, 08 Sep 2012 16:41:50 +0000 Mo 715768@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't have the patience to go play on Polyvore to be honest, lol. But (summer) casual style for me lately is a cargo skirt, dressier woven tank, and sandals. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-definition-challenge-casual#post-715766 Sat, 08 Sep 2012 16:36:40 +0000 Vildy 715766@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'll be interested to read the thread of people's casual styles. Mine has nothing to do with<br /> jeans. I tried to find a representation of what I was actually wearing today and gave up in frustration. Black capris with those preppy embroidered motifs: little flowers in copen blue and pale peach. Black slightly scoop neck tee, short cap sleeves. I call it Country Club Sour. </p>
