I sometimes see the edgiest, most high-fashion looks as almost existing in a parallel universe that has nothing to do with the Ann Taylor Loft cardigan-fest that is my wardrobe, but seeing your outfits makes them a little more accessible to me and lets me learn about brands I'd never have known about. And you have one of the best boot collections I've ever seen! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1213-green-and-cream/page/2#post-1113889 Sat, 14 Dec 2013 15:00:55 +0000 Karie 1113889@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>Oh no, please don't go! I love to read your outfit posts. &nbsp;I don't fit into any of those categories you mentioned either, I just like to have fun with fashion, and I like to see how others have fun with fashion. Fashion is like&nbsp;art - I might not buy the painting to hang in my home, but I can appreciate its creativity and style.&nbsp;Variety is, after all, the spice of life.</p> <p>Have fun with fashion and I hope you keep posting.</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1213-green-and-cream/page/2#post-1113744 Sat, 14 Dec 2013 04:41:41 +0000 K. Period. 1113744@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Okay. &nbsp;I'm reconciled. But only if you absolutely swear that you will check in occasionally and comment on any WIWs that I post. Okay? And check your messages. *mwah* </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1213-green-and-cream/page/2#post-1113695 Sat, 14 Dec 2013 03:12:54 +0000 annagybe 1113695@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ahh, Thanks. Seriously y'all are amazing. I think I just need a break.&nbsp;<br />I think things will be better after the holidays.&nbsp;<br />Though I will probably post tomorrow's outfit, because it's my one shot at festive dressing this year.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1213-green-and-cream/page/2#post-1113632 Sat, 14 Dec 2013 01:55:35 +0000 CocoLion 1113632@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look so good in this casual outfit. &nbsp;You're looking quite willowy, how do you do it with all of the holiday parties and Christmas candy around?</p> <p>As for your style and the forum -- you know I love your outfits, your sense of fashion, your wardrobe and your dedication to quality brands as well as good design.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1213-green-and-cream/page/2#post-1113580 Sat, 14 Dec 2013 01:13:50 +0000 Nicole D 1113580@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If it weren't for you, I would never have discovered LD Tuttle.<br />And I adore the green socks! &nbsp;The possibilities are endless with those shoes. Fishnets would look good </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1213-green-and-cream/page/2#post-1113568 Sat, 14 Dec 2013 00:54:51 +0000 Deborah 1113568@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Anna, I would be disappointed for you to pull back form the forum. You have introduced me to designers and retailers I had never heard of and you have been instrumental in my developing knowledge if all things fashion and I am very grateful for that. I hope I have never communicated judgement because I am thrilled to live vicariously thru you;). My budget commitments are different to yours but I share your joy and live if beautiful things and experience nothing but happiness that you are in a position to buy what you like. Don't go </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1213-green-and-cream#post-1113552 Sat, 14 Dec 2013 00:32:13 +0000 Jjsloane 1113552@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like this a lot (and I'm not any of those things either, well sort of MOTG but nevermind..) I love the hoodie and the shoes of course.&nbsp;I would miss living vicariously through your shoes! I like the wsh of the jeans (even if the cut is not what I personally would wear - they look nice on you) I have a similar scarf (mine is a gift from SIl - DVF green leopard print) and I think it's a good color on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1213-green-and-cream#post-1113527 Sat, 14 Dec 2013 00:11:38 +0000 MsMary 1113527@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Coming back to say my mother used to say "consider the source," which I think is extremely good advice in this particular instance.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1213-green-and-cream#post-1113525 Sat, 14 Dec 2013 00:09:25 +0000 Caro in Oz 1113525@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i don't know what to say right now Anna but I'm glad you told us how you feel.&nbsp;You need to do whatever works for you of course but it would be sad to have you leave because you feel judged.<span></p> <p></span> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1213-green-and-cream#post-1113500 Fri, 13 Dec 2013 23:38:21 +0000 Isis 1113500@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this! Who knew cozy and avant-garde could coexist? Perfection! I love that I have met you irl....gives extra depth for me to your posts! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1213-green-and-cream#post-1113486 Fri, 13 Dec 2013 23:27:43 +0000 catgirl 1113486@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would also be surprised if UWP was a prevailing style here or elsewhere - I mean, I am the only person I know in my day to day life who dresses like me.&nbsp; Every one of us has our individual spin, and Anna, you bring so much to the table.&nbsp; At the same time, I don't want to be coaxing you back into the forum if you really need a break!&nbsp; </p> <p>Also, this - if everyone who felt "different" departed the forum, who would be left?&nbsp; I think it's pretty diverse here compared to the real world (or at least my real world). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1213-green-and-cream#post-1113484 Fri, 13 Dec 2013 23:24:39 +0000 Jacky 1113484@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>First, I just want to say that your outfit is great and you look fantastic!</p> <p>Second, I'm pretty new to the forums, so I haven't seen a lot of anyone's posts, but I do love that you have a different style from a lot of the people here - variety is really important and I think it's both enjoyable and really important to be able to see things that are different from what we ourselves wear/are comfortable with. I'm not sure what categories I fall into either, but I think my style is pretty different as well! That said, you should definitely do what's best for you, and I'm sorry that participating in these forums isn't it. Hopefully your break will be short and if and when you come back, it'll be a better place for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1213-green-and-cream#post-1113480 Fri, 13 Dec 2013 23:16:45 +0000 Diana 1113480@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great!&nbsp; I love the new cream cashmere hoodie.&nbsp; </p> <p>I would also be sad if you were to leave the forum for good.&nbsp; I hope that you will at least keep posting your outfits either here or on your blog for us to see.&nbsp; I really enjoy seeing something different from the norm, especially since I don't really think my style fits into one of the currently prevailing categories here either.&nbsp; (Which if you think about it is kind of funny, because you and me, we are two of Angie's original style categories, the Trendy Fashionista and the Arty Eclectic.&nbsp; Just sayin'.)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1213-green-and-cream#post-1113475 Fri, 13 Dec 2013 23:03:27 +0000 Mo 1113475@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you hold down the edgy trendy designer end of the spectrum, I'll keep filling the more casual than anyone else but still trying to be stylish side of things &nbsp;Deal? &nbsp;We need the variety. &nbsp;Or at least&nbsp;<i>I</i> need the variety! &nbsp;<br />Una, I think it's just more of a sense of a few pervasive styles Anna is alluding to. &nbsp;I could be way off base of course. &nbsp;I also believe a few threads have gone further than, "that's just not for me" and smack of&nbsp;a judgement or assumed intent behind others' dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1213-green-and-cream#post-1113473 Fri, 13 Dec 2013 22:56:04 +0000 donnat 1113473@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i hope your break is short. I think this forum needs your diversity. I like seeing your posts and i kind of feel like i know you. I would be sad to see you go. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1213-green-and-cream#post-1113470 Fri, 13 Dec 2013 22:44:51 +0000 K. Period. 1113470@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Anna, your outfit looks great. &nbsp;Fun and interesting and boundary pushing. &nbsp;</p> <p>I too hope you won't be away for too long. I value your opinion and will miss your insights! You always let me know when I've pushed into new, edgier territory and you always have been very kind in your redirection&nbsp;when something was a little off and I was asking for feedback. &nbsp;I love that. &nbsp;I love your outfit posts too because you show me how a maximal, edgy, fashion forward&nbsp;style works. &nbsp;</p> <p>Is your blog going to be active? Will I be able to get my Anna fix there? I <i>might</i> be willing to let you take a vacation from us if it is and I can. &nbsp;;) &nbsp;Really, though, I'm hoping you will reconsider. &nbsp;Your participation makes this blog a better and more multidimensional place. &nbsp;If we were all UWP and princes or all MOTGs and Modern Classics, we'd be a pretty stale place. &nbsp;Seeing all the&nbsp;UWPs, princes, MOTGs, Modern Classics and Ultra-Fashionistas (that's you to me, btw,&nbsp;a fashionista crossed with a&nbsp;bit of the Clockwork Orange/punk edginess) inspires me. &nbsp;It also&nbsp;gives me an outlet to see things with an aesthetic&nbsp;that I love (your shoes) worn well, even if they are things that don't practically work well in my wardrobe. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1213-green-and-cream#post-1113469 Fri, 13 Dec 2013 22:43:59 +0000 catgirl 1113469@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just to add, those style categories to me are a tool for helping some of us hone and focus our style. Some don't need or want that definition - others like me would flounder without set guidelines. It's similar to the body type guidelines that can be followed or ignored by each person. Do people see them as something more than that? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1213-green-and-cream#post-1113465 Fri, 13 Dec 2013 22:31:07 +0000 Janet 1113465@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gah, those boots are fabulousness. It's great to see you post.&nbsp;</p> <p>I agree with Greyscale and IK.&nbsp;I'm not a MOTG, an UWP, a knight or a prince either. Do ya thing, girl, and stick with us. You help inspire others whose style is a little more outside the mainstream to keep participating.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1213-green-and-cream#post-1113462 Fri, 13 Dec 2013 22:24:23 +0000 catgirl 1113462@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well it's thanks to you that I've been introduced to the joys of higher end shopping. As for changes in the forum I am not sure what you mean and some specifics may help if it is a real problem. I have not seen more negativity or judgment lately but I'm also around less. </p> <p>I would miss you! But you need to put yourself first. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1213-green-and-cream#post-1113456 Fri, 13 Dec 2013 22:16:38 +0000 shedev 1113456@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I get what you are feeling, Anna. I sometimes feel like the spanner of the forum. While others are cutting their hair, I'm growing mine. Others are looking for polish, I seek rateness. It took me about&nbsp;a year to appreciate&nbsp;things I'd hate on me within the context of other styles.&nbsp;Now I love to see all the different ways we interpret fashion. I like it when people post where they got stuff. The mix of high and low is always interesting. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1213-green-and-cream#post-1113412 Fri, 13 Dec 2013 21:20:27 +0000 Astrid 1113412@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm also sorry you're not feeling good about the forum, but I think if you have to participate less to keep having fun with fashion that's alright too. Love the outfit, especially the green socks peeking out! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1213-green-and-cream#post-1113390 Fri, 13 Dec 2013 21:09:16 +0000 Suz 1113390@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry you're not feeling good about the forum, Anna.
