I took an open approach to it, and focused more on how I wanted to present myself than the clothing style itself. To me, it's a tool, not a rule, and I chose:</p> <p>Form and Flow (a balance of structure and softness)<br /> Energy and Ease (vibrant and sometimes dramatic, but always warm and approachable)</p> <p>If the rubric doesn't seem helpful, sometimes making a list of style goals will help focus your shopping and remixing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-rubric#post-688636 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 03:04:44 +0000 rae 688636@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, Shannon came up with the idea to combine style elements (rather than types of clothing) into a formula that would ensure the personal style is always represented. </p> <p>Mine is:<br /> Bright<br /> Dark<br /> Structure<br /> Waist demarkation<br /> Toughness </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-rubric#post-688615 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 02:50:01 +0000 MsMary 688615@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>And the term "rubric" is borrowed from academia, where it refers to standardized grading criteria: <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rubric_%28academic%29" rel="nofollow">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rubric_%28academic%29</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-rubric#post-688529 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 01:33:00 +0000 Mo 688529@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here was my first stab at it <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/copycatting-the-rubric-idea" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....ubric-idea</a></p> <p>I've since decided on 'shrift':</p> <p>Streamlined<br /> Hardware<br /> Repetition<br /> Fitted<br /> Texture </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-rubric#post-688521 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 01:30:31 +0000 Isabel 688521@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just have so much trouble with these things.
