You, my dear, have done this admirably here. I'm taking notes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-evolution-1#post-1192431 Wed, 12 Mar 2014 15:37:34 +0000 Mo 1192431@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I thought I noticed less dresses from you! &nbsp;Love the look! &nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-evolution-1#post-1192409 Wed, 12 Mar 2014 15:16:11 +0000 rute 1192409@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes,&nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/member/angie/">Angie</a>, I´m growing up my hair. I liked short, but my family says it looks better a bit longer (above the shoulders), so I will let it grow and see how I feel, it's a bit&nbsp;weird now.<br />Here people are too conservative about hair!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-evolution-1#post-1192370 Wed, 12 Mar 2014 14:49:58 +0000 Angie 1192370@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Killer look.</p> <p>Rute, I'm high giving you <b><i>again</i></b>.&nbsp;</p> <p>Are you growing your hair?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-evolution-1#post-1192353 Wed, 12 Mar 2014 14:34:56 +0000 Beth Ann 1192353@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ditto to Shannon!&nbsp; It's good to refine a style and enjoy it thoroughly.&nbsp; The clean lines are gorgeous and polished.&nbsp; </p> <p>I'm finding myself wanting lower heels, too.&nbsp; I am aware of protecting my feet for the future, but also, I just like to move a lot, and I don't like being slowed down by footwear! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-evolution-1#post-1192320 Wed, 12 Mar 2014 13:47:44 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1192320@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>IMHO style evolution is a good thing - I too enjoy experimenting Rute and it keeps me from getting bored. Sure, it means there are closet orphans from time to time, but I see that as a natural by-product of being creative. </p> <p>This outfit is a slam dunk in terms of gorgeous - beautiful lines and soft color palette. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-evolution-1#post-1192309 Wed, 12 Mar 2014 13:41:03 +0000 Jaime 1192309@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your example is gorgeous and the move toward walkable shoes and pared down style sounds fantastic! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-evolution-1#post-1192305 Wed, 12 Mar 2014 13:35:37 +0000 Sara L. 1192305@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you look great! &nbsp;It's nice that you're able to articulate your new style and what makes you happy to wear. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-evolution-1#post-1192295 Wed, 12 Mar 2014 13:15:59 +0000 Isabel 1192295@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love you "new" style.

We finally have the confidence to be ourselves and to dress for us.<br />And I guess it's all part of a new turn in my life towards a more clean style! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-evolution-1#post-1192279 Wed, 12 Mar 2014 12:43:32 +0000 rute 1192279@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/member/dgates/">Deborah</a>, I don't think it was the hair, as my instinct with shorter hair was to go for a more lady-like outfit (i like contrasts).<br />My guess is that it started with the shoes, I spent my all life in heels, but now as I'm older, confort plays a big part, I go now for flats, pointy kitten heels.<br />With that came a cleaner, comfy, not fussy style.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-evolution-1#post-1192278 Wed, 12 Mar 2014 12:41:48 +0000 Scarlet 1192278@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i have always been a big fan of your lady-like style, Rute. You look chic, and it is interesting to hear this update. I am interested that you don't wear high heels anymore. I have also felt myself gravitating toward a more simple and classical style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-evolution-1#post-1192275 Wed, 12 Mar 2014 12:29:00 +0000 Krista 1192275@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it!

It appears a very natural progression and very you. The significant change I notice would have to be flat shoes. I think heels have been a big part of your style previously. I just adore this streamlined and modern look on you. Do you think your shorter hair style precipitated part of this style evolution? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-evolution-1#post-1192238 Wed, 12 Mar 2014 10:36:39 +0000 viva 1192238@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this look, Rute. It's so interesting to notice a style shift in yourself. This is a beautiful look on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-evolution-1#post-1192236 Wed, 12 Mar 2014 10:14:59 +0000 Anonymous 1192236@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great!

Simple and full of character. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-evolution-1#post-1192233 Wed, 12 Mar 2014 10:11:26 +0000 rute 1192233@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love to try new things, new fits, volumes, but I notice that many pieces ended up orphans.&nbsp;<br />Lately my style is much more simple and clean:<br />Jeans or classic cropped pants<br />white button down shirt<br />Fab jacket or leather moto&nbsp;(this third piece is very important, as my office is cold and I never take it off).<br />Lower heels: flats or kitten heels<br />few or none jewelery<br />Navy has been my basic color, instead of black</p> <p>Remember my pattern dresses and pencil skirts? I don't wear it anymore. I have 3 sheath dresses (white, red and navy) for a dinner or a corporate event.<br />This wiw illustrates perfectly this new style </p>
