Love the contrast with the black shorts.</p> <p>Joy, that sounds lovely! Are you sure we can't get a picture, even after the fact? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-picture-perfect-challenge-day-1#post-92065 Tue, 08 Sep 2009 04:56:02 +0000 LoP 92065@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love everyone's interpretation of this theme! You all look beautiful and inspiring. I wish I could participate. It is way too artsy for me to be able to do this week while out of town. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-picture-perfect-challenge-day-1#post-92064 Tue, 08 Sep 2009 04:46:04 +0000 RoseandJoan 92064@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kari, I saw the tea cup and thought of this, however you look far more stylish<br /> <a href="http://www.celebuzz.com/lady-gaga-nice-day-cup-s101421/photos/" rel="nofollow">http://www.celebuzz.com/lady-g.....21/photos/</a></p> <p>Kristen, I love the colour combinations.</p> <p>Roll on day two. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-picture-perfect-challenge-day-1#post-92044 Tue, 08 Sep 2009 03:21:00 +0000 Tanya 92044@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, all of you look amazing! I am so impressed!</p> <p>R&amp;J, I am waving back </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-picture-perfect-challenge-day-1#post-92043 Tue, 08 Sep 2009 03:17:42 +0000 Anonymous 92043@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not sure if I'll get a photo, but my outfit is very similar to Ana's. I needed to be casual so went with a white amost sheer cotton voluminous peasant top with mandarin collar, deep slit, and lots of tiny pleats bordered by white lace over a white cami with lace on the bottom...all this reminded me of the billowy white skirt in the photo. This was paired with dark denim Matchstix clamdiggers from last summer, a very narrow long light weight navy silk scarf with white polka-dots, and nude plain ballet flats for a barefooted look.<br /> I would not usually have worn the scarf but liked the darker color next to my face and the way it also floated out when I moved. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-picture-perfect-challenge-day-1#post-92042 Tue, 08 Sep 2009 03:16:12 +0000 taylor 92042@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Everyone looks so FAB:)</p> <p>OK...I want<br /> Bella's skirt<br /> Ana's scarf<br /> R&amp;J"s belt<br /> Kristen's handbag<br /> Kari's top<br /> Shannon's *hair do dad* </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-picture-perfect-challenge-day-1#post-92036 Tue, 08 Sep 2009 03:00:05 +0000 shannon 92036@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here is my outfit. Keep in mind I do not have an artsy bone in my body. I did not have to go anywhere today, hence the super casual.</p> <p>I thought of this shirt right away when I saw the photo. The color of the shirt is the color of the sky and the detail on the front resemble flower petals. </p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/gymgirl/3898406713/" rel="nofollow">http://www.flickr.com/photos/gymgirl/3898406713/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-picture-perfect-challenge-day-1#post-92016 Tue, 08 Sep 2009 02:22:14 +0000 Angie 92016@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bella – KILLER. Classic, super sophisticated, professional and very pretty. I’m stealing that skirt. </p> <p>Ana – Fabulous! KILLER scarf. Playful and arty. Great make-up. As always, you are top notch. </p> <p>R&amp;J – KILLER. I mentioned what I thought of this outfit in another thread. You look like a supermodel. Very fab. You are one of the few lasses I know who wear pastels extremely well. Wave to Tanya! </p> <p>Kari – Gorgeous as ever. Pretty, put together and effortlessly chic. Your eyes are extra sparkly AND peaceful. </p> <p>Kristen – You look dreamy and relaxed. Very cute. </p> <p>I love seeing the individuality come through. THAT is terrific. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-picture-perfect-challenge-day-1#post-92010 Tue, 08 Sep 2009 01:43:36 +0000 Anonymous 92010@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ana, I love your scarf. I ordered that one too late and it was gone.<br /> You all look great, very artistic photos.<br /> I didn't have time to play today, but I hope to tomorrow.<br /> This is fun and it is so interesting to see how you all interpreted the picture. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-picture-perfect-challenge-day-1#post-91998 Tue, 08 Sep 2009 01:22:59 +0000 hanna 91998@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>wow, i love seeing everyone's different interpretations! you all look gorgeous! i didn't have time to post a photo today, but i will tomorrow when i have some time to breathe. :)</p> <p>ana, i thought it would be best to post all photos on the same thread so everyone could refer to the original picture and then all the various interpretations at the same time and compare and contrast what everyone had gotten out of it. does that make sense?</p> <p>i'm about to post day 2's photo... stay tuned! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-picture-perfect-challenge-day-1#post-91992 Tue, 08 Sep 2009 01:08:03 +0000 bella 91992@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a lot of fun; it is really interesting to see how we are all inspired by different aspects of the picture. I can't wait to see what is next.<br /> I enjoy seeing everyone's pictures on the same thread. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-picture-perfect-challenge-day-1#post-91966 Tue, 08 Sep 2009 00:01:06 +0000 Ana 91966@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love all of your outfits!</p> <p>I was wondering if maybe we should each start our own thread so everything doesn't get mixed up and nobody gets looked over by mistake. What do you gals think? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-picture-perfect-challenge-day-1#post-91965 Mon, 07 Sep 2009 23:57:11 +0000 Kristen 91965@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh, I love all the different interpretations! It's so fascinating to see what of the photo inspires each of us.</p> <p>Ana, I love the look of the dreamy, peaceful scarf. </p> <p>RoseandJoan, LOVE the way you mixed the soft of summer and the hard of autumn. Oh, that is just soooo clever!</p> <p>Kari, how cool that it was the peace/serenity of the photo title that inspired you the most! Love the softness of the scarf against the harder solids.</p> <p>For my interpretation, I took the lighting and the dense, dark colors as the cornerstones of my outfit. </p> <p><a href="http://lowfatdressing.blogspot.com/2009/09/monday-peace-of-mind-picture-perfect.html" rel="nofollow">http://lowfatdressing.blogspot.....rfect.html</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-picture-perfect-challenge-day-1#post-91937 Mon, 07 Sep 2009 21:03:44 +0000 Kari 91937@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gosh, the two of you have set the bar high!<br /> Bella, I love how you used the composition and colors in the original picture to come up with your challenge response - that skirt is beautiful on you.<br /> Ana, I agree that the dreamy mood &amp; casual style in the original pic really comes out well in your outfit. I LOVE your gorgeous scarf!</p> <p><a href="http://inkariswardrobe.blogspot.com/2009/09/picture-perfect-challenge-peace-of-mind.html">My challenge response</a> is more in line with the "Peace of Mind" theme, though the skirt and scarf were inspired by the original photo. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-picture-perfect-challenge-day-1#post-91936 Mon, 07 Sep 2009 21:02:39 +0000 RoseandJoan 91936@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Okay, this is my first attempt at a challenge and I have cheated! There is no way I would be allowed to wear this outfit to the office but couldn't resist posting it.</p> <p>Like Bella I loved the elements of light and dark in the picture but what I was drawn to the most was the contrast of the summer skirt against the autumn scarf.</p> <p>Here is my interpretation:<br /> Chloe for La Redoute grey blue sleeveless ruffle dress. This dress was designed by Stella McCartney and therefore ancient.<br /> French Connection chocolate brown leather slouch boots with bow detail.<br /> Pilgrim tortoise shell sunglasses<br /> Hi Design handbag with gold hardware<br /> Chocolate brown elasticated belt</p> <p><a href="http://s575.photobucket.com/albums/ss194/RoseandJoan/?action=view&#038;current=DSC02303.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s575.photobucket.com/al.....C02303.jpg</a></p> <p>Ana that scarf is absolutely beautiful. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-picture-perfect-challenge-day-1#post-91887 Mon, 07 Sep 2009 18:07:30 +0000 marianna 91887@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ana, is that scarf from NAS? It's so pretty! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-picture-perfect-challenge-day-1#post-91884 Mon, 07 Sep 2009 18:04:06 +0000 bella 91884@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it! That scarf truly captures the essence of the picture: dreamy, soft, whimsical. well done Ana! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-picture-perfect-challenge-day-1#post-91866 Mon, 07 Sep 2009 17:34:24 +0000 Tanya 91866@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ana, you look gorgeous! I love, love it! That scarf is so pretty. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-picture-perfect-challenge-day-1#post-91863 Mon, 07 Sep 2009 17:20:27 +0000 Ana 91863@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Okay, here's my challenge outfit (I guess we are supposed to put our outfits in this same thread?):</p> <p><a href="http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h275/Saintana13/Outfits%20September%202009/ChallengeOutfit1.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i66.photobucket.com/alb.....utfit1.jpg</a></p> <p>I tried to use the same colors as the photo, and also have the same mood, which is kind of casual and dreamy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-picture-perfect-challenge-day-1#post-91856 Mon, 07 Sep 2009 16:34:26 +0000 Tanya 91856@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oog Bella, I love it! I think you answered the challenge perfectly. That skirt is gorgeous, and I adore all the details. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-picture-perfect-challenge-day-1#post-91850 Mon, 07 Sep 2009 16:19:28 +0000 bella 91850@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you Kristen, this was definitely a hard challenge. I posted the correct link, thanks for alerting me.:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-picture-perfect-challenge-day-1#post-91846 Mon, 07 Sep 2009 16:15:46 +0000 Kristen 91846@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooooo, Bella! I like the way you captured the blown-out colors of the photo; that's been the tricky part for me in thinking about how to do today's challenge.</p> <p>The drape of the skirt gets that windy look, too! And the top/bottom color contrast, the depth of texture of the necklace and blouse detail...Nice. Very nicely done.</p> <p>(P.S. The photo links are all to the same detail photo. I found the correct ones on your photostream but you should edit.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-picture-perfect-challenge-day-1#post-91842 Mon, 07 Sep 2009 16:07:02 +0000 bella 91842@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi all, </p> <p>I changed my blog name from bellacville to bella.</p> <p>Here is my outfit:<br /> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/26160917@N03/3896076207/" rel="nofollow">http://www.flickr.com/photos/2.....896076207/</a></p> <p>I was more inspired today by the color and shapes of the picture than the overall mood. Besides, I am leading an important training workshop today, so something a bit professional was in order. I decided to recreate the divided look of the picture with a dark skirt that represents the dark, tall grass in the bottom of the picture and a light, blue striped blouse with ruffled collar that emulates the blue-grayish sky and the clouds. The outfit has a lot of textural interest that doesn't come across in the pictures. The skirt has a lovely drape running down the front and I am wearing a lace tube top under the blouse. </p> <p>Details:<br /> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/26160917@N03/3896854844/" rel="nofollow">http://www.flickr.com/photos/2.....896854844/</a><br /> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/26160917@N03/3896855190/in/photostream/" rel="nofollow">http://www.flickr.com/photos/2.....otostream/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-picture-perfect-challenge-day-1#post-91763 Mon, 07 Sep 2009 05:27:59 +0000 Tanya 91763@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Can't wait to see what you come up with! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-picture-perfect-challenge-day-1#post-91762 Mon, 07 Sep 2009 05:26:32 +0000 Angie 91762@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am waiting in anticipation. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-picture-perfect-challenge-day-1#post-91692 Mon, 07 Sep 2009 01:00:53 +0000 Ana 91692@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That looks like a photo from an Anthropologie catalog. :D</p> <p>I will post my outfit tomorrow. This is hard. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-picture-perfect-challenge-day-1#post-91689 Mon, 07 Sep 2009 00:48:45 +0000 hanna 91689@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>hi everyone! this is for day 1 of the picture perfect challenge (an explanation is here: <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-challenge-a-picture-says-a-thousandstyles" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....sandstyles</a>). basically, i will post a random picture from flickr that you are supposed to use as inspiration for the next day's outfit. </p> <p>for monday, september 6th, your inspiration picture is:<br /> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/rowenar/3890470552/" rel="nofollow">http://www.flickr.com/photos/rowenar/3890470552/</a></p> <p>description for michelle:<br /> the picture is sepia-tinged and has a vintage, retro feel. a young woman is centered within the frame, surrounded by wildflowers and tall grasses. her hair is wavy and shoulder length; she is wearing a flowy, cream-colored skirt that hits just above the knee and what looks like a polka dot top with a deep red scarf. her eyes are hidden behind large sunglasses and she is looking off towards the left of the photo. the photographer seems to have been kneeling down and looking up at her to take the shot. the photo is called "peace of mind."</p> <p>i hope that helps... i will be posting my picture tomorrow! shout for any questions. </p>
