It's been fun to see your style evolve. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---coming-full-circle-or-not#post-1630970 Thu, 17 Mar 2016 21:31:23 +0000 cobaltblue 1630970@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm so glad you kept that sweater. You are looking better than ever. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---coming-full-circle-or-not#post-1630959 Thu, 17 Mar 2016 20:29:16 +0000 Astrid 1630959@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Sara. :)</p> <p>Thanks Smittie! Mmh, interesting thought with that "dash of tech", I'll have to think about that. I thought about maybe buying a new watch one of these days, might be fun to pick a tech inspired men's style watch to wear with a summer dress. But I still have to find the perfect warm weather replacement for a my woolens too! </p> <p>Cerinda, I'm glad to hear my post got you pondering. Classic proportions can be great!</p> <p>Sharan, thank you! And yes, that was before YLF. I love the ring too, although it's a bit big for me. My Oma gave it to me a few years ago when we sorted through her jewelry.</p> <p>Rachylou, agree! Big difference. I'm really happy with my hair stylist right now. I dread the next move! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---coming-full-circle-or-not#post-1630890 Thu, 17 Mar 2016 17:58:31 +0000 rachylou 1630890@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Amazing how a seeming few snips can change the same basic haircut. I must say I like your current version of your home style. Your lux finishing touches make everything that much more chic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---coming-full-circle-or-not#post-1630866 Thu, 17 Mar 2016 17:09:31 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1630866@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are looking beautiful and adorable, Astrid. It's fun to read about your style shift and to see the older short-hair photo (and very cute tomboy style)! I didn't realize you had come "home," as all I had seen was the gradual shift from long hair and more going on to the pixie and more streamlined style. Thanks for the detail photo--that ring is gorgeous, and I love the soft heathered tones of your luxurious looking sweater. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---coming-full-circle-or-not#post-1630849 Thu, 17 Mar 2016 16:41:37 +0000 Cerinda 1630849@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm wondering about the full-circle thing, too. I've been putting away my winter clothes and pulling out the SS one, photographing as I go. &nbsp;I think perhaps that, even though I totally embrace JFE intellectually and aesthetically, I may be headed back to classic proportions. &nbsp;Hmmm; you've gotten me thinking...</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---coming-full-circle-or-not#post-1630747 Thu, 17 Mar 2016 13:50:08 +0000 Anonymous 1630747@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you're getting better with age, lucky you!<br /> The muted colours is the key component of your style, I think, as is your pixie and woolens.<br /> I like the dash of tech in your backpack. I think that's a nice counterpoint. You might consider developing that aspect further (maybe for summer?).<br /> I don't think there is much of a circle for me. I can tell because the conversations on this topic don't resonate. I think I'm probably still experimenting. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---coming-full-circle-or-not#post-1630741 Thu, 17 Mar 2016 13:33:45 +0000 Sara L. 1630741@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Karrake sounds fun.&nbsp; I like the details of your outfit with the sneakers in a fun color and the pretty ring.&nbsp; Nice! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---coming-full-circle-or-not#post-1630729 Thu, 17 Mar 2016 13:06:25 +0000 Astrid 1630729@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Aliona. </p> <p>It was definitely a lot of fun! I'm not a very good singer, but that makes it even better. And I was in good company. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---coming-full-circle-or-not#post-1630713 Thu, 17 Mar 2016 12:16:26 +0000 Anonymous 1630713@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm glad you've 'come home' Astrid, coz you look FAB! I *love* the balance of colours and clean lines in pic 2. Extremely chic simple. </p> <p>I love the idea of a karaoke-induced long night! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---coming-full-circle-or-not#post-1630710 Thu, 17 Mar 2016 12:11:14 +0000 Astrid 1630710@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For me my style has definitely come home, with the most significant change being my return to a pixie cut. I was a Tomboy with a bit of yearning for more femininity and I feel like I finally managed to find the balance with that! I did a big detour - crazy patterns and colors, lots of accessories, long hair... But I finally came back to what I've always liked: mainly soft,&nbsp; muted colors on the darker side, lower contrast. Solids and a few patterns. Simple clean lines and few accessories. Comfortable, practical and easy to wear. But with a lot more "pretty" than in the past! And you're as likely to see me in a skirt or dress now, I was wearing jeans exclusively back then. I like what Ornella once said in one of her posts: it's not a circle, it's an upwards spiral! </p> <p>Sorry I'm looking a bit exhausted, it was a long night (karaoke!). And yes, that's one bad haircut in picture #4. That was almost ten years ago! Time flies.</p>
