I swear my first thought is, "I could NEVERRRRRRRRRRR wear ripped jeans!"</p> <p>...could I? I always figured I'd look like some middle aged homeless lady. Oh, my resistance to stepping outside of my usual box is showing!</p> <p>For the last couple years I've been wearing flowy tunics/leggings and dresses almost exclusively. I've been going through significant and stressful body changes and have a whole new shape now that seems to look better in totally different things.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-everything-i-said-id-never-wear#post-1869978 Tue, 19 Dec 2017 22:32:12 +0000 Jazzy Dance 1869978@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, <b>Janet</b>! I was taken by the star pattern myself! I was thrilled when it went on sale last week. :)</p> <p><b>Fsshiontern</b>, I can see myself going with this for our short mild winter, but I'm pretty sure come summer I'll be back in my dresses again. It's just. so. hot. here I can't imagine wearing anything else. I'm enjoying this a lot though.</p> <p><b>Bonnie</b>, thanks! I am a novice faux-tucker. I'm pretty sure there's a blog post here from a few years ago on the subject I need to revisit.</p> <p><b>Always trying</b>, yes! Change IS good! I need to be reminded of that sometime. I get comfortable and stuck in a rut very easily.</p> <p><b>La Pedestrienne</b>, thank you! You have a good eye. I think you're right too, it feels very comfortable!</p> <p><b>Zaeobi</b>, I use Kevin Murphy Free Hold. It smells amazing.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Suz</b>, what a boost! Thank you. :)</p> <p><b>Emily and Elizabeth</b>, I so appreciate you using the word authentic. So many times in the past I have just felt like I was playing dress up or trying to fit in. It's demoralizing and uncomfortable. But I feel like it suits me!</p> <p><b>Juniper Green, Diana, Meredith,</b> thank you! You help me feel more confident to try more new things. :)</p> <p><b>Angie</b>, lesson learned, and from your fabulous blog posts.</p> <p><b>Liz A</b>., I could hug you right now. No one's ever said that to me before! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-everything-i-said-id-never-wear#post-1869977 Tue, 19 Dec 2017 22:27:29 +0000 Anonymous 1869977@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jazzy: what types of things do you normally wear? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-everything-i-said-id-never-wear#post-1869976 Tue, 19 Dec 2017 22:26:46 +0000 Anonymous 1869976@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wonderful!<br /> Next up: ripped jeans </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-everything-i-said-id-never-wear#post-1869911 Tue, 19 Dec 2017 18:56:46 +0000 Meredith 1869911@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fabulous!

You should wear the things you never wear more often because you look sensational in them all! What a fab casual outfit!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-everything-i-said-id-never-wear#post-1869854 Tue, 19 Dec 2017 16:55:22 +0000 Zaeobi 1869854@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like how your hair is 'spiky' but still looks 'soft', if that makes sense. Did you use wax to keep it up like that? I would have assumed that styling products would have made your hair look more 'hard' / 'crunchy' than that? </p> <p>*taking notes for my own newly short hair, lol!* </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-everything-i-said-id-never-wear#post-1869851 Tue, 19 Dec 2017 16:51:36 +0000 LaPed 1869851@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Super fab!! The spiky pixie is wonderful, and I love the star print on you. Also, at a glance, it seems your personal style seems very harmonious with your home decor -- which tells me you're within your wheelhouse, even if it feels new and different. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-everything-i-said-id-never-wear#post-1869842 Tue, 19 Dec 2017 16:35:37 +0000 always trying 1869842@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All looks great. change is good.. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-everything-i-said-id-never-wear#post-1869833 Tue, 19 Dec 2017 16:21:30 +0000 Bonnie 1869833@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it all. I've always admired spiky cuts and it really suits you. I've never worn faux tucked tops, but this looks great. I really like your new look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-everything-i-said-id-never-wear#post-1869820 Tue, 19 Dec 2017 16:05:51 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 1869820@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Dang, you look good! Do you think this change will sweep across your whole wardrobe, or just be another look you wear some days but not others? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-everything-i-said-id-never-wear#post-1869817 Tue, 19 Dec 2017 16:02:24 +0000 Janet 1869817@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I'd certainly say that those things you said you'd never wear are certainly working for you! I love that sweater (I have an odd soft spot for star prints), and the oxfords are adorable. You look great.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-everything-i-said-id-never-wear#post-1869815 Tue, 19 Dec 2017 16:00:34 +0000 Jazzy Dance 1869815@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had fun working on this after reading Angie's blog post about preferences changing overnight.&nbsp; It's like I woke up one day and suddenly wanted to wear all the things I was <b><i></i></b><i>sure</i><b></b> I'd never wear, including:<br />-spiked hair (whaaaaat?)<br />-skinny jeans<br />-oxfords<br />-faux-tucked tops<br />-glasses (which I usually only wear right when I get up in the morning)</p> <p>I was lucky to get the sweater, shoes and jeans either thrifted or on a deep holiday discount! I also will add a belt when I have a belt (another thing I swore I'd never wear).</p> <p>Taking my new oxfords out for a spin today!&nbsp; </p>
