Always find it interesting that an outfit I think looks good may look completely different when I photograph it and can be such a learning experience. &nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-keeping-track#post-1144284 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 13:59:43 +0000 Sarah A 1144284@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like seeing the bigger picture with all of your outfits grouped.

It's always hard to shift a routine. I really like you in blue, and the tube skirt + flowy top looks are super. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-keeping-track#post-1144250 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 12:31:00 +0000 donnat 1144250@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That takes do much discipline. It is well worth it. I love the tube skirt looks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-keeping-track#post-1144166 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 05:39:00 +0000 Jeanie 1144166@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it's cool how you have captured your outfits in that calendar app. &nbsp;If you ever do want to repeat an outfit you can just look at your calendar and choose! &nbsp;Nifty. &nbsp;I like 5,6 7 &amp; 10 especially on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-keeping-track#post-1144143 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 05:02:54 +0000 Deborah 1144143@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hil you look great in stripes:) I think all of these work for the different occasions. I also am attracted to 5, 6, 9 &amp; 10. Just gorgeous. Nicely put together and effortless style. Im going to give that App ago </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-keeping-track#post-1143866 Sun, 19 Jan 2014 22:51:26 +0000 Anonymous 1143866@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great looks!&nbsp;I think my favorites are&nbsp;#2, #5, and #10. Especially #10. Your lovely red hair really complements your clothing too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-keeping-track#post-1143860 Sun, 19 Jan 2014 22:44:32 +0000 Beth Ann 1143860@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>2, 6 and 10 are my favorites, Hil, but I think you're dressing with more flair than you feel right now.&nbsp; Be gentle with yourself, learning a new job, even when you love it, takes huge amounts of energy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-keeping-track#post-1143747 Sun, 19 Jan 2014 19:23:00 +0000 Suzanne (ambergreen) 1143747@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm with lyn67 on your #7 look--that's my fave. Love the patterned maxi skirt! Elegant yet comfy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-keeping-track#post-1143745 Sun, 19 Jan 2014 19:20:17 +0000 Debra 1143745@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YLF, great outfits Hil. I really like #2and#10 as my favorites. You look great in a tube skirt. And I hear how you feel about a little extra weight. I'm the same at present. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-keeping-track#post-1143741 Sun, 19 Jan 2014 19:05:18 +0000 Hil 1143741@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the feedback&nbsp;everyone... You all made me feel a whole lot more confident about what I have been wearing. In answer to Elizabeth's question... I think I am just a bit bored with my wardrobe and not happy with the extra weight I am carrying. I feel uncomfortable and I think that is affecting the way I see myself in the clothes.</p> <p>PS The app I am using is called "Collect" and is a photo-a-day type app.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-keeping-track#post-1139689 Wed, 15 Jan 2014 13:49:24 +0000 Elizabeth P 1139689@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you've got a great consistent look going on here.&nbsp; What is it that isn't "enthusing" you?&nbsp; </p> <p>Just out of curiosity, what is the name of the app you are using?&nbsp; I use the Stylebook calendar, but you just get a polyvore type of outfit record, I like the idea of using the photos themselves, to see how I accessorized, tucked, etc.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-keeping-track#post-1139687 Wed, 15 Jan 2014 13:43:09 +0000 lyn67 1139687@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, I love them all! Angie's ones +nr.7 (for your maxi love:-))are my faves! Think you did fab without repeating an all outfit!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-keeping-track#post-1139668 Wed, 15 Jan 2014 13:00:58 +0000 E 1139668@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a neat app &amp; way to go with that level of discipline to record them every day!</p> <p>I love your hair first off: it's just perfect. I actually love a lot of these outfits: the voluminous/swingy top + more fitted bottom is very flattering on you. And you rock black!&nbsp;Seeing #9 made me wonder if trying a woven, swingy top with your fabulous knit skirts would work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-keeping-track#post-1139192 Tue, 14 Jan 2014 23:08:02 +0000 Susie 1139192@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think I have to agree with Suz in choosing 2 and 10 as my favorites. A top with some volume paired with a slim skirt is particularly flattering on you. </p> <p>And thank you for sharing that app! I am really liking it as a quick way to my WIW's. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-keeping-track#post-1139142 Tue, 14 Jan 2014 22:12:55 +0000 Angie 1139142@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Absolutely loving #5, 6, 9 and 10. The proportions are flattering and you look fabulous. And that blue against your orange hair is sublime. Buy more blue, please. xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-keeping-track#post-1139090 Tue, 14 Jan 2014 21:20:13 +0000 Caro in Oz 1139090@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Glad the job is working out :)&nbsp;</p> <p>I love both the casual outfits Hil - YLF - relaxed &amp; chic.&nbsp;Outfit #10 is perfect imo - smart, comfortable &amp; stylish. I&nbsp;also like #2 although it does read more casual. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-keeping-track#post-1139063 Tue, 14 Jan 2014 20:57:30 +0000 Suz 1139063@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hil, I think it is both great discipline and great exercise to do this. I found a month of consistent photos really gave me deeper insight into what I truly love in my wardrobe and what I'd just as soon not duplicate, as well as what direction I want to go.&nbsp;</p> <p>I still think you own the slim skirt-avant-garde top look. I especially love 2 and 10 for that reason. The shoes also inject a real shot of style into everything. You are doing so much better than you think.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-keeping-track#post-1139043 Tue, 14 Jan 2014 20:34:59 +0000 Catnip 1139043@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Glad the new job is working out!&nbsp; I really like #8 and #10.&nbsp; You look great in black! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-keeping-track#post-1138984 Tue, 14 Jan 2014 19:52:36 +0000 Hil 1138984@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So I really haven't had anything exciting to post recently. The new job is taking up much of my time, in a good way. I'm trying to remember to take daily pics for my new photo calendar app. It's really helpful to see at a glance what I have worn for the last few days. And as a personal challenge, I am trying to see how many days I can go for at work without a complete outfit repeat. So whilst I'm wearing the same items, I'm wearing them in different variations. </p> <p>I will also say that whilst I think most of these outfits are ok... They're not where I want to be style wise and I am not overly enthused by any of them. I am merely taking what's in my wardrobe and trying to make it work for a smart casual dress code after a seven year hiatus in an environment that allowed me to be MOTG casual. </p> <p>I have posted some of these as individual WIWs but I thought it may be interesting to post the whole series. </p> <p>1 and 4 have been weekend stay at home outfits and 3 and 9 are casual Friday outfits. 12 is the app which I've been using to capture these. </p> <p>Thank you for looking and Id love any insight and feedback which you may have for me. </p> <p>xxx </p>
