I agree with Angie, that the pattern, drape&nbsp;and texture add lots of interest and life to the grey tones. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-repeating-myself#post-1409752 Fri, 12 Dec 2014 05:27:56 +0000 Deborah 1409752@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm off to read your other post as I think I missed it.

I love your style! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-repeating-myself#post-1409703 Fri, 12 Dec 2014 03:31:22 +0000 abc 1409703@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your outfit and your attitude. I've never gotten pattern mixing down. You, on the other hand, could teach a master class. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-repeating-myself#post-1409699 Fri, 12 Dec 2014 03:26:34 +0000 Suz 1409699@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I <b>LOVE</b> this! Absolutely stunning on you. I am a huge fan of graphic pattern mixes in neutrals.&nbsp;</p> <p>And I am also in love with what you said about teaching. Your students are very lucky people. I'll bet they think you are stylish, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-repeating-myself#post-1409697 Fri, 12 Dec 2014 03:22:44 +0000 Anonymous 1409697@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm glad you're here! Your style seems really striking, and I especially love the subtle mixture of graphic prints in this outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-repeating-myself#post-1409638 Fri, 12 Dec 2014 01:37:00 +0000 MuseumGal 1409638@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Woo hoo, another member of Team Texture.&nbsp; Fab outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-repeating-myself#post-1409618 Fri, 12 Dec 2014 01:04:29 +0000 Janet 1409618@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I missed your earlier post until now, but I've got to say I'm enjoying your presence here on the forum. I love your unique style, and you really do seem to have a knack for finding interesting pieces that go beyond any kind of style decade to create a modern eclectic look. It certainly seems authentic to you. </p> <p>I'm also really glad to read about your love for your job. It's such a huge blessing to do work you love. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-repeating-myself#post-1409614 Fri, 12 Dec 2014 00:53:41 +0000 rachylou 1409614@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have a serious lot of treasures when it comes to clothes. I need names, dates... lol. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-repeating-myself#post-1409613 Fri, 12 Dec 2014 00:53:07 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1409613@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This outfit is amazing, and you carry it off so well. You look perfectly at ease in it. To me, what's amazing is that you've taken four statement pieces-- five counting the boots--and put them together in such a way that they complement each other rather than fighting for attention. You dress yourself beautifully. If I had put on these drapey layers all together, I would feel swallowed up, and I'm sure I would project that feeling. You look cozily and beautifully adorned. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-repeating-myself#post-1409594 Fri, 12 Dec 2014 00:09:38 +0000 Angie 1409594@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's lovely that you joined our community aproprio, and that you love your job. We value your participation enormously, and I appreciate your kind words about YLF on your profile page.&nbsp;</p> <p>It's hard to add life to grey, but this outfit has LOTS of life because of the patterns and your bright orange hair. I'm loving it. I vote killer hectic drape. xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-repeating-myself#post-1409564 Thu, 11 Dec 2014 23:16:59 +0000 Aida 1409564@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh I love the hectic layering, drape, and subtle print mixing going on here -- particularly in #1. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-repeating-myself#post-1409487 Thu, 11 Dec 2014 21:40:53 +0000 Caro in Oz 1409487@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I missed your first post but went back to read it. I love your outfits &amp; think you look creative with a edge - &nbsp;a look I love&nbsp;:) Agreeing with Angie about the glue to hold things together - before coming here I never thought about those pieces. It was hard at first because I had such an eclectic wardrobe but I have been slowly wearing my clothes, seeing how I feel in them &amp; working out what I need to work with the more difficult pieces.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-repeating-myself#post-1409485 Thu, 11 Dec 2014 21:37:26 +0000 Dimity 1409485@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree, approprio, it is a privilege to be able to inform the next generation. And you do it in so much style! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-repeating-myself#post-1409475 Thu, 11 Dec 2014 21:16:42 +0000 approprio 1409475@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>By way of a coda to <a rel="nofollow" href="http://approprio.lookfab.com/post/5-silhouettes-no-direction">my last post</a>, I gave a lot of thought to all your comments and decided to give #2 another outing. As a result,&nbsp;this is what I wore to my teaching job today. (Yeah, a&nbsp;bunch of stuff you've seen before. Sorry about that.) I'm really feeling the black/grey pattern matching. And I think I've found the right camera angle.&nbsp;</p> <p>I really love my teaching job.&nbsp;It's such a privilege to stand in front of students, share my knowledge and enthusiasm for things I feel passionate about and see that enthusiasm reflected back as it was in today's class.&nbsp;In much the same way, it's a pleasure to finally engage here and get a taste of so many different styles and approaches to a fundamental art form that's so often devalued and underrated because it's the preserve of women, and older women at that.</p> <p>To tell the truth, it still feels a bit odd to be sharing something so personal&nbsp;with a bunch of strangers on the Internet, but it's so nice to be here at last&nbsp;that I'm wondering why&nbsp;I didn't do it before.&nbsp;</p> <p>So&nbsp;I wanted to thank you all&nbsp;for pitching in and giving me feedback on what works best. And I don't want anyone to think they can't give me advice, because that last thread gave me plenty to think about and led to&nbsp;some new ideas on how I should put things together.&nbsp;Sometimes I need to know how to dial it down some, and any commentary is food for thought.&nbsp; </p>
