Maya, you look adorable! LOVE the hat. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-challenge-chain-bella-challenges-maya#post-135712 Thu, 18 Mar 2010 16:10:09 +0000 Maya 135712@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I thought the yellow top was too girly for the challenge Sarah, but it would definitely be more fab for everyday. I'm going to recreate this challenge when I have the pieces I want!</p> <p>Hanna, check your Urban Outfitters. The hat was in the sale bin last time I checked. Comes in purple and black too.</p> <p>Ele, that's actually super cute. I want a boyfriend who matches me! What a fab accessory... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-challenge-chain-bella-challenges-maya#post-135699 Thu, 18 Mar 2010 14:45:19 +0000 hanna 135699@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>maya, I WANT THAT HAT. if we ever meet, may i please steal it? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-challenge-chain-bella-challenges-maya#post-135063 Tue, 16 Mar 2010 19:04:21 +0000 Susan 135063@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also love your menswear inspired outfit! You look kind of retro early 1990s, in the best way possible. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-challenge-chain-bella-challenges-maya#post-135048 Tue, 16 Mar 2010 18:03:49 +0000 Sarah 135048@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Can you switch the tops for your new yellow one from INC? Would you feel more fab that way? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-challenge-chain-bella-challenges-maya#post-135047 Tue, 16 Mar 2010 18:01:08 +0000 Ele 135047@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nertz, I keep missing all the challenge threads. You look killer in this Maya, it's SO fab! I love the hat and the fact that you approached it based on a hypothetical boyfriend He certainly is very stylish, and when you meet him I'm sure you'll have a great time borrowing stuff from his closet. (Lucky you- if I borrowed from Andrew's I'd just look the exact same as I already do. In fact the other day we were about to go out and he made me change my coat, as we looked pretty much identical and he had put his on first. Insert eye rolling here.)</p> <p>You've got me thinking that I'd get more wear out of my microchecks if I hemmed them for flats, hmm... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-challenge-chain-bella-challenges-maya#post-135023 Tue, 16 Mar 2010 16:30:18 +0000 bella 135023@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maya, you rocked this challenge. I agree with Angie that this outfit is all about the hat and you pulled it off so well! I think you could definitely wear this outside. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-challenge-chain-bella-challenges-maya#post-134585 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 14:02:54 +0000 Vani 134585@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maya, you did great! Such a fab little outfit. It may not the outfit you would have liked to have to come up with - but don't be hard on yourself because your own little touches like the hat and the cons really elevate the outfit to menswear but youthful and completely wearable! Superb idea pairing cons with the microchecks BTW. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-challenge-chain-bella-challenges-maya#post-134583 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 13:12:18 +0000 yublocka 134583@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maya I love it! I like wearing a vest with the microchecks as well. The hat just perfects your outfit!!! I might steal that idea as I plan to wear hats more this winter! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-challenge-chain-bella-challenges-maya#post-134575 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 07:54:11 +0000 RoseandJoan 134575@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you did an amazing job with the resources you have Maya. You sourced everything from your existing wardrobe and your challenge was very specific. I think you wear pink very well and hope you get the tweed shorts soon to recreate the Zooey Deschanel look. Have you tried Clarks for your oxfords? Mine are from Clarks and just mold to your foot. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-challenge-chain-bella-challenges-maya#post-134564 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 06:38:20 +0000 Sihaya 134564@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the hat and the vest and your interpretation of this Maya. Can't wait to see you in more menswear inspired pieces once you are able to shop more. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-challenge-chain-bella-challenges-maya#post-134560 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 05:32:11 +0000 anne 134560@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks good Maya! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-challenge-chain-bella-challenges-maya#post-134548 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 03:37:28 +0000 Anonymous 134548@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look cute in this menswear inspired outfit. You should explore your options with this style and have fun.<br /> You are getting so slim. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-challenge-chain-bella-challenges-maya#post-134534 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 02:36:56 +0000 Queen Mum 134534@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What an adorable outfit! I love love love it! Very hip in my opinion. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-challenge-chain-bella-challenges-maya#post-134461 Sun, 14 Mar 2010 23:52:11 +0000 taylor 134461@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>SUPER CUTE:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-challenge-chain-bella-challenges-maya#post-134455 Sun, 14 Mar 2010 23:42:13 +0000 Debora 134455@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maya, don't be so hard on yourself. You look adorable and nailed your challenge! I love the contrast between the menswear inspired clothing and your curvy, little self. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-challenge-chain-bella-challenges-maya#post-134426 Sun, 14 Mar 2010 21:59:36 +0000 Maya 134426@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not sure. I don't really feel fabulous in it to be honest. If I had the right items, I would have put on some tailored tweed shorts, hose, and oxfords instead, and I think I would have liked that more. I have tweed shorts in my shopping cart on Urban Outfitters, but after my recent indulgences, I can't bring myself to check out. Oxfords are really feeling more and more like a "must" in my closet, but it has been a PITA to find a decent pair that strikes the right masculine/feminine balance.</p> <p>And the hat, although my favorite part of the otherwise mediocre outfit, isn't really practical. I mean, I couldn't wear it indoors all day. I'd have to leave it for being outside, when most of my outfit is covered by a coat anyway.</p> <p>So...I feel a little underwhelmed by it, especially after seeing everyone else's orbit-launching killer outfits, but I either don't have the inventiveness or the right pieces to come up with something else. I'll have to do! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-challenge-chain-bella-challenges-maya#post-134423 Sun, 14 Mar 2010 21:47:33 +0000 April 134423@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Completely adorable! Can you imagine yourself wearing this (or something similar) in your everyday life, or was it a "this was fun to try once" experiment? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-challenge-chain-bella-challenges-maya#post-134409 Sun, 14 Mar 2010 20:36:24 +0000 chellebrate 134409@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fun! I love the hat! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-challenge-chain-bella-challenges-maya#post-134407 Sun, 14 Mar 2010 20:29:33 +0000 Maya 134407@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Angie. I really didn't have a lot of pieces to work with for this challenge, which saddens me, since I love androgynous menswear looks, but I just grabbed whatever I could find and thankfully it worked. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-challenge-chain-bella-challenges-maya#post-134403 Sun, 14 Mar 2010 20:22:04 +0000 Louise 134403@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-challenge-chain-bella-challenges-maya#post-134394 Sun, 14 Mar 2010 20:06:16 +0000 Angie 134394@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wear my jeans with Converse that long too. </p> <p>Love the outfit! Super fab. It's really all about the hat and I like that aspect about it best. You wear hats really well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-challenge-chain-bella-challenges-maya#post-134390 Sun, 14 Mar 2010 19:47:55 +0000 Maya 134390@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I approached this challenge by asking myself how I want my hypothetical boyfriend to dress: like a gentleman, but still playful and with a sense of humor, and confident enough to wear pink:</p> <p><a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v35/ranabow/IMG_2384.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://img.photobucket.com/alb.....G_2384.jpg</a></p> <p>Pardon my frizzy hair and the fact that these pants are hemmed for heels...but that sort of works in a boyish "I don't care" sort of way...</p> <p>I forgot to wear my watch, which is the only other accessory I'd probably wear for this challenge. I tried to let the tailoring be the only feminine aspect of the outfit...but I didn't have a fedora on hand so I had to wear the girly hat with a bow. Hopefully the fact that it is gray makes it acceptable... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-challenge-chain-bella-challenges-maya#post-133380 Thu, 11 Mar 2010 20:49:06 +0000 hanna 133380@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>y'all are on a roll with the creative challenges!</p> <p>maya, here is your list!</p> <p>1. marianna<br /> 2. queenie<br /> 3. dusty<br /> 4. londonkiwi<br /> 5. dawn<br /> 6. hanna</p> <p>last person challenges sihaya! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-challenge-chain-bella-challenges-maya#post-133315 Thu, 11 Mar 2010 18:32:23 +0000 bella 133315@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>yay! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-challenge-chain-bella-challenges-maya#post-133308 Thu, 11 Mar 2010 18:21:37 +0000 Maya 133308@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sounds fun! I accept! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-challenge-chain-bella-challenges-maya#post-133286 Thu, 11 Mar 2010 17:38:00 +0000 bella 133286@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My dear Maya, I picked you! </p> <p>I love your artsy, creative, and urban style. I admire how you don't compromise comfort for fashion. My challenge was inspired by in part by your unique and eclectic style and in part by the new project that you seem to have undertaken (even though I don't know much about it). It seems like you will be making a trip to men's department stores in the next couple of days, so perhaps in the meantime, you can be on the lookout for ideas for your challenge. </p> <p>Your mission (if you accept it ;)) is to create a menswear inspired outfit. You have no limitations as to the texture, color, etc. but it must be an outfit that you haven't worn before. If you choose to wear an already menswear inspired item (a boyfriend cardi or boyfriend blazer) it must be either combined with other menswear-inspired items or styled in a not-obviously-feminine way. </p> <p>Let me know what you think. </p> <p>Good luck! </p>
