Congratulations!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/veterans-day-style-musings-and-ylf-love-long/page/2#post-634073 Fri, 01 Jun 2012 01:24:09 +0000 krishnidoux 634073@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you for these heartfelt reflections on your style journey! It is so well told. I enjoyed reading your realizations about weather, and the idea one should wear the same things from Spring through Summer... I understand this. I felt that guilt too! But like you, YLF has helped me there. When you acknowledge your climate, and start to equip yourself in consequence, life becomes so much easier (in terms of getting dressed).</p> <p>Storing the clothes from the other seasons away from the eyes and grasp might be the best way to go in our climate.</p> <p>I really like how your style has been shaping itself to where you are now. It's amazing to see the two pictures side by side. You could wear the boho artsy style well, I think, but this more classic turn seems to be more you, and maybe have more personality on you (because of how you wear it). It's interesting to see where it will go. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/veterans-day-style-musings-and-ylf-love-long/page/2#post-633762 Thu, 31 May 2012 18:27:33 +0000 Astrid 633762@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congrats for becoming a veteran!

Being new myself, it was really neat to see your pre- and post-YLF outfit photos. Very nice transformation! </p> <p>Hopefully in a year or so I'll be able to define my personal style just as well as you have. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/veterans-day-style-musings-and-ylf-love-long#post-633184 Thu, 31 May 2012 01:43:35 +0000 Jaime 633184@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a wonderful transformation story and those pictures are amazing. The haircut was defining, but I think it was just a natural step on the journey that led to your fabulous today. I won't say a picture is worth 1000 of your words, because I love reading your thoughts, but you look incredible. Thanks for sharing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/veterans-day-style-musings-and-ylf-love-long#post-633171 Thu, 31 May 2012 01:33:46 +0000 Sveta 633171@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, I cannot believe it has been just one year: It feels like I know you for ages...<br /> Lovely post and great musings. The changes are amazing and it was a pleasure to see your style evolving. I also think that you edgy short do has a lot of influence over your current style.<br /> Here is to another great year on YLF! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/veterans-day-style-musings-and-ylf-love-long#post-633011 Wed, 30 May 2012 22:37:47 +0000 annagybe 633011@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow you became a veteran fast. I think it took me 2-3 years. But you've done great work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/veterans-day-style-musings-and-ylf-love-long#post-633010 Wed, 30 May 2012 22:34:46 +0000 Mochi 633010@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, Suz, that second look is so fab I can't stand it! I have to favorite it immediately. I hope even a smidgen of your forward-marching style sense rubs off on me. You have no idea how much of an inspiration you are and surely will become even more so. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/veterans-day-style-musings-and-ylf-love-long#post-633007 Wed, 30 May 2012 22:29:12 +0000 Parsley 633007@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congratulations, Suz!<br /> Both on becoming a Veteran, and on making so much progress in figuring out your style; you are an inspiration!</p> <p>I think Steph hit the nail on the head: I think your style is creative, but just not Boho-artsy.</p> <p>i look forward to seeing what this next year brings as far as continuing refinement of your fabulous style. I also very much appreciate your help to the rest of us as we struggle to figure out our style issues.</p> <p>Hooray for Suz! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/veterans-day-style-musings-and-ylf-love-long#post-633000 Wed, 30 May 2012 22:15:27 +0000 Anonymous 633000@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz! You're a veteran! You are more senior to me than I thought (I think I joined in August). I loved seeing your first WIW! You looked great then, and even better and more stylish now. And I lo-o-o-o-oved reading your post. Such good musings to chew and ruminate on. FWIW, I think your style *is* arty, just not in the way you were expecting it to turn out. High-heeled saddle oxfords are pretty artistic in my book. Maybe graphic art? I love the way you analyze and figure things out; I have reaped the rewards of your scrutiny many times! You are a great encourager and a style inspiration to us all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/veterans-day-style-musings-and-ylf-love-long#post-632949 Wed, 30 May 2012 21:16:32 +0000 Diana 632949@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congrats, Suz! Your style has really become focused and sharp lately, I think. And I think the haircut is the single biggest thing that has happened to your style this year. I really can't picture you without it anymore. What a blast from the past to see the old photo with your old hair - I can't believe that was only a year ago! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/veterans-day-style-musings-and-ylf-love-long#post-632948 Wed, 30 May 2012 21:14:35 +0000 Marie 632948@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congratulations to a beautiful (inside &amp; outside) woman. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/veterans-day-style-musings-and-ylf-love-long#post-632905 Wed, 30 May 2012 20:27:41 +0000 Amy 632905@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a fun post to read. It's wonderful that you love your fab haircut and are feeling more confident and playful with your outfits. I'm impressed with how focused and smart your shopping is! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/veterans-day-style-musings-and-ylf-love-long#post-632888 Wed, 30 May 2012 20:17:41 +0000 Kirti 632888@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congrats Suz!

You look fabulous! Thanks for sharing this.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/veterans-day-style-musings-and-ylf-love-long#post-632813 Wed, 30 May 2012 18:48:44 +0000 Angie 632813@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had a moment to thoroughly read through your musings and savoured every word, Suz! WOW. You are a focused and fab gal. HUGS!!</p> <p>FWIW, I think that you discovered the power of modern classic wardrobe items and manipulate them to suit your mood and style. This is creative and owning your look. Well done you uber stylish creature </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/veterans-day-style-musings-and-ylf-love-long#post-632810 Wed, 30 May 2012 18:47:52 +0000 RoseandJoan 632810@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy veterans day Suz, you have always looked beautiful and stylish but your look has progressed fabulously and it has been a pleasure to read your musings and look at your WIW posts over the past twelve months. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/veterans-day-style-musings-and-ylf-love-long#post-632772 Wed, 30 May 2012 17:59:43 +0000 Isis 632772@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy Vet's Day, Suz!</p> <p>LOVE seeing these pictures! What a transformation! It's been fun to be along with you on this sartorial trip! I wonder where you will go next? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/veterans-day-style-musings-and-ylf-love-long#post-632678 Wed, 30 May 2012 16:11:12 +0000 Suz 632678@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, again, everyone. It is shocking to think that I might be an inspiration. I GET so much inspiration from each and every one of you! Not to mention VERY helpful advice. I really like how the forum can steer us gently in our best directions. </p> <p>Steph, you are definitely onto something. In that David Kibbe (is that right?) style system I came out as classic dramatic (I think that was the label) and in the Carol Tuttle system that someone recently posted I was a Type 3, in which asymmetry and some boldness is essential. Very interesting stuff. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/veterans-day-style-musings-and-ylf-love-long#post-632673 Wed, 30 May 2012 16:07:02 +0000 Angie 632673@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>*happy tears*</p> <p>I have to run but Suz, thanks goes to you.....for being incredible YOU. I will be back to comment here. </p>
