I am curious as to what you mean as far as more grown up prints. I love the prints you wear because they are quirky -- and seem to showcase a unique part of your personality. I never saw any of them as "juvenile". </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-one-year-ago-what-has-changed#post-1200520 Fri, 21 Mar 2014 01:19:38 +0000 Nicole D 1200520@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Deffo Kate Spade refinement with the girlish fun coming through. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-one-year-ago-what-has-changed#post-1200487 Fri, 21 Mar 2014 01:01:15 +0000 lyn* 1200487@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@ Rae - I got a WTF from some inner city patrol/police officers once when I tried to take pictures in the park in my DSLR days ... :p&nbsp;</p> <p>@ Sharon - Thanks! I think that's what I'm trying to go for...</p> <p>@ Rabbit - These boots just have my orthotics in them. I'm just lazy and don't like moving them around too much. I have three pairs of boots - the grey ones, the brown ones and the roan ones.</p> <p>@ Shannon - I should make everyone sleep later... ;)</p> <p>@ Torontogirl - I've always worried about being repetitive and boring, thanks for the reassurance!</p> <p>@ Rachylou - What an interesting idea about power. I like power. MUHAHAHAHAHAHA. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-one-year-ago-what-has-changed#post-1199087 Wed, 19 Mar 2014 17:44:46 +0000 rachylou 1199087@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the longer hemlines and wider belts. Same idea, but more powerful. I think solid skirts and patterned tops will be very interesting in your fit-and-flare framework.</p> <p>You make doing a blog sound very appealing. Would be nice to have such a catalog! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-one-year-ago-what-has-changed#post-1198879 Wed, 19 Mar 2014 13:25:47 +0000 Helena 1198879@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the consistency of your style, without ever looking repetitive or boring. You look great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-one-year-ago-what-has-changed#post-1198874 Wed, 19 Mar 2014 13:23:16 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1198874@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>There's a new maturity to your style but without losing the fun - if that makes sense. You still have a great formula with your dresses and toppers but the dresses have a little refinement to them. I love that you haven't lost your attraction to fun prints though :)</p> <p>I'm lucky with my photo spot - I take my pics in the morning while hubby is in the shower and DS isn't up yet. Total privacy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-one-year-ago-what-has-changed#post-1198767 Wed, 19 Mar 2014 07:28:33 +0000 rabbit 1198767@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can't compare over time, but your fit and flare formula works well on you now, beautiful refined dresses!</p> <p>There is a question I've been curious about. &nbsp;In the&nbsp;WIW I've seen in the last month or you are always wearing the same pair of boots. &nbsp;Is this a travelling pair, or is this just a consistent item across outfits? &nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-one-year-ago-what-has-changed#post-1198765 Wed, 19 Mar 2014 07:08:39 +0000 Sharon 1198765@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I see the common theme of feminine outfits. However I think they have become less girly and sweet and more fashion forward and quirky. I think you have a very defined, recognisable style that has become more mature. &nbsp;You always look great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-one-year-ago-what-has-changed#post-1198737 Wed, 19 Mar 2014 05:13:48 +0000 rae 1198737@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree that everything has just gotten honed-in, refined, upgraded, and has matured. All great things!&nbsp;</p> <p>I hear you about not having an alone space for photos... on days I don't post I'm usually afraid of a WTF from a neighbor or gardener. o_0 </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-one-year-ago-what-has-changed#post-1198732 Wed, 19 Mar 2014 04:50:12 +0000 lyn* 1198732@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tee hee, I have the tripod and the DSLR ... somewhere. I don't have a place to set it up that my sister won't be like WTF are you doing. I miss that part about living on my own. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-one-year-ago-what-has-changed#post-1198701 Wed, 19 Mar 2014 03:50:11 +0000 annagybe 1198701@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I still remember when you took photos with a tripod and your DSLR.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-one-year-ago-what-has-changed#post-1198699 Wed, 19 Mar 2014 03:48:22 +0000 lyn* 1198699@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks to the YLF blog, I can easily see what I was wearing one year ago, and see where my style has evolved. I was hoping to draw on the collective YLF wisdom to help answer the questions: <ol> <li><i><b>What has changed for the better?</b></i></li> <li><i><b>What are the still relevant themes?</b></i></li> <li><i><b>Where am I heading?</b></i></li> </ol> I have an idea about the answers for these, and I definitely see some themes that still persist, but I'm interested to hear what you dear ladies have to say, especially since I rely so much on your guidance as it is! <ol> <li>Changes for the better - I appreciate the longer hemlines, and also the more tailored toppers. I also like thicker belts these days, and defining more of a waist has been important. I think better quality also shines through for my more recent attire.</li> <li>I still see some common themes - fit and flare being predominant, as well are toppers, and interesting necklaces. The Kate Spade influence had already been starting. I also love belts, tights and boots. And pony-tails.</li> <li>I think more grown-up patterns are needed with the fit-and-flare. I like the idea of solid skirts and more patterned tops (3) but hopefully, I can get more creative than that. I also like more grown-up glasses... and leather belts.&nbsp;</li> </ol> Thanks in advance </p>
