What great looks. You've worked hard to SYC and ome up with so many different looks well done.</p> <p>No idea how you could refer to these as nothing exciting. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-no-repeats#post-629037 Sat, 26 May 2012 01:49:54 +0000 Amy 629037@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hope this is not too personal, but you have amazing legs.

My favorites are 5, 7, 8 and 10. Definitely more creative and flattering than a lot of MOTGs I see everyday. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-no-repeats#post-628952 Fri, 25 May 2012 23:43:13 +0000 nicoleb 628952@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow! Way to be creative with your closet! I'm so impressed and you look great in all of them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-no-repeats#post-628917 Fri, 25 May 2012 22:48:10 +0000 kellygirl 628917@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, K! I’m glad you like them!<br /> @Mo: Thanks! I’ve got the picture down to a science. One snap and I’m out the door. Well, maybe two. It hasn’t got tiresome yet. I have a lot of mixing ideas in my head and the picture is just to make sure it translates to real life. (My mirrors still lie to me.)<br /> @Claire: Thank you! Glad you like the format. It seemed like an easy way to spot problems quickly and efficiently.<br /> @Jonesy: I’m only sort of SYC’ing. I’m trying to be uber picky these days. My spring/summer wardrobe is pretty solid and I’m saving pennies for NAS. I’m so glad that you and Denise spotted the sandals. I got these after returning the metallics--these were exactly what I wanted and I got them for a song. They are ikat fabric--probably not the best fabrication but I’ll probably get tired of them after a season or two anyway. Close up, coming up.<br /> @Meredith and marija: Thank you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-no-repeats#post-628909 Fri, 25 May 2012 22:04:53 +0000 marija 628909@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow! I am so impressed by your vision and colour/style sense! How fun! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-no-repeats#post-628887 Fri, 25 May 2012 21:36:25 +0000 Meredith1953 628887@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They all look great and #10 is my very favorite! All the outfits are very polished! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-no-repeats#post-628878 Fri, 25 May 2012 21:30:50 +0000 Jonesy 628878@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yowsa! You look so fab! My faves are 5, 6, and 11, but you are lookin' good every day. I had no idea you were SYC--you are pulling it off amazingly well. </p> <p>Those colorblocked sandals are really fab, and the ones in 6 and 11 are TDF! Can we get a footwear close-up or two :)? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-no-repeats#post-628857 Fri, 25 May 2012 20:46:10 +0000 Anonymous 628857@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kelly, this is so great! Thank you for not taking your summer hiatus from fashion. We really do need your fab example. This picture is like a giant bag of eye-candy for me. One shot on it's own is nice, but there is so much more lusciousness in the collage! Yum, yum, yum! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-no-repeats#post-628847 Fri, 25 May 2012 20:19:52 +0000 Mo 628847@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kudos to you! I can't even manage the discipline of taking pics of my outfits every day. 2 weeks with no repeats is awesome. And they all look great and different. Good job! Is this fun for you or is it tiresome to make sure you don't repeat something? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-no-repeats#post-628844 Fri, 25 May 2012 20:16:06 +0000 K. Period. 628844@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>2, 5, 8, 10, 11, 12...trying to pick a favorite, but I can't. What a great set of outfits! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-no-repeats#post-628820 Fri, 25 May 2012 19:48:07 +0000 kellygirl 628820@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gosh, thanks for the nice comments! I was going to edit out the duds but am glad that I left ‘em all in.<br /> @DianeG: DH calls the first one my sailing outfit. He always ask me which port I’m off to when he sees me in it. The color block sandals are an Isola copy by Bandolino. I wasn’t sure how versatile they would be but I’m finding that they are actually pretty easy to style. </p> <p>@christieanne: thanks! It has been fun playing with the dresses. I tend to live in clams so it’s been a nice change up. I’m glad you see polished and modern. I must be in my “rubric.” </p> <p>@TS: Thank you. Fun is another one of my style goals : )</p> <p>@Rae: Thanks, Rae. I’m pleasantly surprised that you like the sweater over dress. I actually loved it but DD#2 didn’t so I was having doubts. To tell the truth, I’m actually having fun. I think not having a strict SYC rule helps. I’m being extra picky when I do shop but I’m not really feeling the urge. I’ve been trying to invent new ways of wearing what I have instead of going for the instant gratification of a new purchase. We’ll see how long this lasts :)</p> <p>@fern: Lol! No footwear shortage here. Shoes are my weakness (one of many.) </p> <p>@Una: Thanks! I don’t think I’m qualified to give any advice So far, not repeating has been pretty easy. Spring/summer is a loooong season for me. By the end of it, I’m ready to throw everything out. My goal is to mix things up instead of wearing my usual half dozen “uniforms” and hopefully not feel compelled to shop (too much) or burn my clothes.</p> <p>@Denise: Hola, back at you : ) Thank you! I collaged using Pages and iphoto--kind of a pain but I have yet to get any photo collage software. I wasn’t sure about the format but it seemed like an easy way to view a large group of photos. Less overwhelming than small groups or individuals. I’m not sure what Picasa is? </p> <p>Glad you had a chance to shop in the “big” city on a cool day. I don’t miss those “teen” temps at all! You must be gearing up for summer. Is it crazy with tourists out your way yet? RE: The sandals. I got the Bandolino wedges at TJMaxx but I saw them at Marshall’s shoe superstore too. (I snapped them up at the Maxx thinking I got the only pair only to see dozens of them at Marshall’s some weeks later.) Thanks for the sweater love. I’d been looking everywhere for an open knit sweater like yours and decided just to make my own. So funny that you mentioned the sandals. Edgy is exactly what I was going for when I got those sandals--I ended up returning the metallic Everybody’s. They just weren’t exactly what I wanted. I love RATE so I’m glad I scored a couple of these. It’s definitely part of my rubric too. </p> <p>@Makrame: Thank you! Yes, you have a good eye. I duplicated! It’s my most comfortable jacket. I want it in every color. It’s a good thing it is sold out. The top in 8 is a recent purchase (caslon, I think.) I liked the colors and thought it would play well in my closet. I have a hard time styling those khaki shorts.</p> <p>@Suz: Thanks, Suz! Glad that these resonate with you. I live in casual so it can get a little boring to me. I really love the easy style of the “dress” in 11. I find that drawstring style easy to wear. Unfortunately, I haven’t had much luck re-mixing it because of the length (too many horizontals come into play) but it’s great on it’s own. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-no-repeats#post-628792 Fri, 25 May 2012 19:24:21 +0000 Suz 628792@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My goodness, what a lot of goodness! Kelly, I always look to you for inspiration because with my work-at-home MOTG lifestyle I really need to dress with your casual flair. I only wish I had your fab gams! Not to mention your fab shoe collection! </p> <p>As far as these outfits go, my absolute favourites are 10 and 11. I am surprised at myself liking 11 so much; the top is not something I'd ordinarily be drawn to, but it looks fantastic on you here. And look at those sandals in 10! </p> <p>Keep em coming! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-no-repeats#post-628778 Fri, 25 May 2012 18:58:55 +0000 Makrame 628778@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a great collection of outfits (and it does look like a spread from a magazine). My favorites are #2 with its mix of deep colors and the rugged military jacket and #5 - that Nick and Zoe jacket (?) in blue looks marvelous. #8 has very summery vibe with the fresh colors and stripes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-no-repeats#post-628769 Fri, 25 May 2012 18:49:43 +0000 CocoLion 628769@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hola Modesto girl, I was just there yesterday, buying a new fridge and freezer for the restaurant. Plus a jillion other things. Modesto is so nice when not in the 90s and hazy, and we drove past so many lovely orchards. Some of those farmers have some pretty flash houses too!</p> <p>So.. I love the way you compiled/collaged the outfits, you clever girl! Do you use Picasa or something else?</p> <p>My #1 fave is #10 (reading left to right), the one with the b/w striped tunic and color-blocked sandals. Where did you get those sandals? LOVE.</p> <p>2nd fave is #6, black dress with open knit top. You look very good in black, and the footwear choice is perfect for this edgier outfit.</p> <p>#2 and #7 are super flattering! You just have the best legs and they show beautifully in these proportionate shorts outfits. </p> <p>I think #5 with the blue jacket and skirt is a very cute MOTG. #11 and #14 are a little more rugged &amp; RATE (that's a compliment coming from me); the more I look at #11 in particular the more I really like this look on you.</p> <p>I think you did a great job of re-mixing, it tempts me to try SYC myself just to stir my creative juices. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-no-repeats#post-628754 Fri, 25 May 2012 18:32:51 +0000 catgirl 628754@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WOW, look at you! It's like one of those 30 days, 30 ways lessons in the fashion mags! You really do have a great style, Kelly. Was it a struggle not to repeat or did you feel like it was easier than you expected? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-no-repeats#post-628746 Fri, 25 May 2012 18:24:04 +0000 fern 628746@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fantastic. No duds.<br /> It's like a sandal show - what fun! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-no-repeats#post-628740 Fri, 25 May 2012 18:19:31 +0000 rae 628740@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love that cropped open weave sweater over the denim dres!! You are gettiing really creative so far. How do you feel? Are you having more fun with SYC this way? </p>
