I learned to wear tunics or dresses with leggings or skinny jeans (late, I know). I'm thinking of signing up for the remedial class in how to wear boots over skinny jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-did-you-learn-about-stylefashion-this-year/page/2#post-273221 Sat, 01 Jan 2011 12:39:39 +0000 londonkiwi (now back in NZ) 273221@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this story - I think that bank robbery outfits should be posted.</p> <p>Am happy to provide a London based hideout if needed... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-did-you-learn-about-stylefashion-this-year/page/2#post-273218 Sat, 01 Jan 2011 12:30:45 +0000 Theresa 273218@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>hehehe This is a riot!!</p> <p>How about an alibi in Australia? I'll confirm you are all here visiting! Just find some loot to send over and I'll be happy :)</p> <p>As for what I've learned...</p> <p>hmmm EVERYTHING!!!</p> <p>But, probably the biggest thing I guess, is that after 11 months, I've finally truly *got* where I want to head and just what my wardrobe needs! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-did-you-learn-about-stylefashion-this-year/page/2#post-273196 Sat, 01 Jan 2011 07:48:00 +0000 Michelle 273196@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Anyone mind if I bring biscuits for the decoy? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-did-you-learn-about-stylefashion-this-year/page/2#post-273191 Sat, 01 Jan 2011 07:20:14 +0000 Lynne 273191@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Taylor, you would have a good headstart - in Maria Killams post on her shopping trip with Angie, it took all of 8MINUTES to buy premium jeans! As long as you didn't get distracted at the cake counter you'd be out of there in no time :)</p> <p>Ms Maven, sorry for derailing....I finally realized in 2010 that expensive doesn't equal stylish eta ie just because something is expensive doesn't mean it will be stylish on me, which is kind of counterintuitive to the above...but those girls are WAY ahead of me in their style journey so maybe I'll be joining the Oceans 19 or 20 team </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-did-you-learn-about-stylefashion-this-year/page/2#post-273139 Sat, 01 Jan 2011 02:10:02 +0000 MNsara 273139@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>And don't forget - everyon must wear their black microfishnets over your heads for disguise. . .</p> <p>Musn't forget my 2010 style lessons:<br /> that I must be true to my own personal style no matter what's on trend<br /> that dresses are my friend<br /> that alterations are good<br /> that I must not buy clothing too large anymore<br /> that there are so many fun ways to wear pearls<br /> that structured bags are better style and better for my shoulders ;-)</p> <p>Also, to avoid that nasty tendency I have to buy "Saturday night" clothes instead of things I can wear any day (who was it recently discussed that idea?) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-did-you-learn-about-stylefashion-this-year/page/2#post-273075 Sat, 01 Jan 2011 00:33:50 +0000 chewyspaghetti 273075@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Head to toe black?

Yes, very polite felons.

The Oceans 14 team aren't hijacking, they're just hiding here :)</p> <p>Beth, I do believe CNN added that the staff had never encountered such NICE bank-robbers! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-did-you-learn-about-stylefashion-this-year/page/2#post-272957 Fri, 31 Dec 2010 20:01:41 +0000 Angie 272957@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>*big fat chuckle* </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-did-you-learn-about-stylefashion-this-year/page/2#post-272928 Fri, 31 Dec 2010 19:37:52 +0000 rae 272928@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I learned that mirrors can lie, and that photos are SO much more helpful!</p> <p>Loved the bank heist story -- as one who enjoys the thrill of hunting down expensive items for less, I find the robbery concept thrilling! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-did-you-learn-about-stylefashion-this-year/page/2#post-272915 Fri, 31 Dec 2010 19:23:14 +0000 Anonymous 272915@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How did I miss this thread?

As captain of Team Red I couldn't help but insert the bad pun!</p> <p>What I learned:<br /> - That I can shop in my closet just as easily as at the mall and rediscover things<br /> - There are more ways to reduce skirt orphans<br /> - Dresses are no longer intimidating and one of the easiest ways to create an ensemble.</p> <p>Thank you Angie for your continued guidance and brilliance. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-did-you-learn-about-stylefashion-this-year/page/2#post-272831 Fri, 31 Dec 2010 16:54:03 +0000 taylor 272831@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You guys a SOO funny, thanks for picking up and being a part of the story!!!</p> <p>Hilarious!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-did-you-learn-about-stylefashion-this-year/page/2#post-272827 Fri, 31 Dec 2010 16:44:52 +0000 rute 272827@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So much, as I lost weight I had to re-think my wardrobe and my style and YLF ladies were certainly a big inspiration and help! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-did-you-learn-about-stylefashion-this-year/page/2#post-272806 Fri, 31 Dec 2010 16:10:36 +0000 Michelle 272806@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gold, Beth!!

While the tellers were able to precisely describe the behavior of the thieves, not a single witness was able to describe the appearance of the robbers. Instead, the victims appeared stunned and speechless, simply stating repeatedly 'they looked so fab.' The trail went cold at the local Nordstrom." </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-did-you-learn-about-stylefashion-this-year#post-272768 Fri, 31 Dec 2010 15:28:54 +0000 Tanya 272768@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOL, you guys are hilarious!

She even fits the colour rules!<br /> In keeping with my decoy status I will dress the part of an innocent but trendy professional -- black sheath dress, black zippered leggings, black knee-high boots and a large pile of pearls. I would dearly love to wear a layer under or over the dress, but have nothing appropriate at the moment. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-did-you-learn-about-stylefashion-this-year#post-272674 Fri, 31 Dec 2010 06:24:14 +0000 Angie 272674@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As Thief Boss I 100% approve of your outfit, Taylor. We can also stash the loot in your Buberry suitcases. I'll wear black skinnies, OTK black boots, black turtle neck and trench coat. I'm throwing in the white specs and pearl ring for good measure. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-did-you-learn-about-stylefashion-this-year#post-272672 Fri, 31 Dec 2010 06:17:50 +0000 taylor 272672@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>FAB idea!<br /> i will wear my black cashmere turtleneck...the":pile of pearls" black ponte knit pants and OTK black high heeled boots.....leopard head band..(very discreet)</p> <p>We need look outs! </p>
