I came last summer, and have been amazed at the knowledge and sharing spirit of everyone here!</p> <p>For my personal must-haves in Spring/Summer of 2012 (can't predict for fall/winter):</p> <p>A white cotton blouse<br /> A off-white blazer/jacket<br /> Navy dress skirt<br /> A striped top<br /> Something small with polka-dots<br /> Something orange<br /> Some denim jeans that fit like a glove, NOT bagging out<br /> I'm with Jewell: a statement necklace that goes with most everything<br /> A purple crossbody bag<br /> Some kind of shoes </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-are-ylfs-top-ten-must-haves-for-2012#post-497636 Sat, 31 Dec 2011 03:30:54 +0000 Jewell 497636@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello and welcome!</p> <p>My predictions for what they're worth:<br /> 1. orange (from light to bright- whatever shade tickles your fancy)<br /> 2. bold prints (possibly geometric, floral, or tribal)- Personally, I hope to score a blouse and a pair of ballet flats featuring a cool print.<br /> 3. dark blues (navy, ink blue, and similar variations)<br /> 4. more stripes (this prediction is probably more to do with my recent fascination with them)<br /> 5. statement jewelry (I've been on about a four month quest for the perfect statement necklace but haven't found it yet, so now I'm waiting for it to find me.)</p> <p>I also must have a cross-body bag. I realize that wasn't ten items, but it's all I've been able to gather from internet buzz : ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-are-ylfs-top-ten-must-haves-for-2012#post-497565 Sat, 31 Dec 2011 02:18:43 +0000 lyn* 497565@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think navy will feature </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-are-ylfs-top-ten-must-haves-for-2012#post-497495 Sat, 31 Dec 2011 00:51:30 +0000 fauxpas 497495@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi. First...my "in fashion biz with no experience" introduction. I actually rep a designer and while I do trunk shows for women and their friends in their homes, my main emphasis is in training and development and bring fashion education to our consultant base. What? you ask? How can you educate and train women around fashion without fashion experience? Good question and one that I avoid thinking too much about or it stops me in my tracks...usually made by a great pair of ballet flats! I sort of "fell into" this business and have only just realized that personal style is what truly being fashionable is all about. I am on a journey and thinking my YLF discovery is a serendipitous one! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-are-ylfs-top-ten-must-haves-for-2012#post-497230 Fri, 30 Dec 2011 19:49:11 +0000 cciele 497230@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, I think bright and bold colors and prints, more color blocking, maybe continuation of high-waisted styles and menswear elements. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-are-ylfs-top-ten-must-haves-for-2012#post-497224 Fri, 30 Dec 2011 19:40:28 +0000 Laura 497224@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello Fauxpas! You won't be making any of those in the fashion realm if you stick around YLF :)</p> <p>What I remember of Angie's coverage of the spring 2012 shows was BRIGHT color, and flowing styles. I'll also be waiting for the list! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-are-ylfs-top-ten-must-haves-for-2012#post-497179 Fri, 30 Dec 2011 18:39:22 +0000 Jonesy 497179@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not Angie, obviously, but I want some patterned pants for 2012! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-are-ylfs-top-ten-must-haves-for-2012#post-497166 Fri, 30 Dec 2011 18:18:06 +0000 RoseandJoan 497166@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am hoping to add a silver skirt to my wardrobe, inspired partly by the Paris fashion shows and partly by my love of sheen. I am also interested in adding some fitted sweaters (jumpers), the right boxy jacket and a bright floral piece.</p> <p>Welcome to the forum. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-are-ylfs-top-ten-must-haves-for-2012#post-497159 Fri, 30 Dec 2011 18:08:32 +0000 Transcona Shannon 497159@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not sure of exact items, but I suspect navy and orange will play a part in Angie's list. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-are-ylfs-top-ten-must-haves-for-2012#post-497154 Fri, 30 Dec 2011 18:01:31 +0000 lynn 497154@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't have 10 but I would start with a great fitting pair of jeans. A flattering white shirt, a nice leather belt and some good looking boots would be staples. Add a jacket or trench in whatever color looks great on you. A little black dress (or navy), a pair of dressy pants and a pretty necklace and you have a good start. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-are-ylfs-top-ten-must-haves-for-2012#post-497149 Fri, 30 Dec 2011 17:58:17 +0000 Angie 497149@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome, fauxpas! It's lovely to see you participate in our community. What's your role in the Rag Trade? </p> <p>I am putting together my list of top 10 for Spring 2012, but will keep you in suspense till then :)</p> <p>Let's hear what the others have to say. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-are-ylfs-top-ten-must-haves-for-2012#post-497127 Fri, 30 Dec 2011 17:26:21 +0000 fauxpas 497127@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am new to YLF and loving it! I am actually in the fashion industry with little to no fashion experience---imagine that! I've seen a lot of emphasis this last year on "top ten" must have items. What does YLF think about the "top ten" strategy? What are Angie's (YLF) top ten "must haves" for 2012? </p>
