I hope . Gulp . I’m afraid that I’ll once again have to face the gluttonous number of pairs of boots and shoes I have - but diving into the deep end is necessary to get this done . Can I just do the winter boots and bags right now ? Summer is packed away . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-finds-challenge-week-1-bags-shoes#post-1873811 Tue, 02 Jan 2018 00:49:05 +0000 Emily K 1873811@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>kkards</b> idea is inspired! &nbsp;I will add that you can get a running total using this method by clicking on your "find"--it will have a list of all the ensembles in which it is included--giving you a total of wears to date. &nbsp;One concern that I have is that the ensembles will not stay in order if you edit them in any way and the search feature can be hit or miss (I'm not quite sure why) so adding 365 outfits a year might become cumbersome and unsearchable--I don't have close to that number of ensembles and I get confused when browsing them.&nbsp; </p> </p> <p>ETA: &nbsp;Oh wait--I think there might be a problem with that because, if other people have collected the same "find" it will list all of the references including those initiated by others--but maybe a quick scan thru the titles would let you know how many used were personal to you.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-finds-challenge-week-1-bags-shoes#post-1873808 Tue, 02 Jan 2018 00:39:52 +0000 Barbara Diane 1873808@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wonderful idea. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-finds-challenge-week-1-bags-shoes#post-1873658 Mon, 01 Jan 2018 16:44:04 +0000 bella 1873658@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is something I want to accomplish as well. I think I am going to approach it slightly differently. I just committed myself to 30 for 30 challenge in another thread. I am going to try to make sure that each day all component of my outfit are saved in the finds. Let's see if that works out.&nbsp;<br />&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-finds-challenge-week-1-bags-shoes#post-1873645 Mon, 01 Jan 2018 15:52:38 +0000 Mary Beth (formerly LBD) 1873645@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh, I think this is a great idea - count me in!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-finds-challenge-week-1-bags-shoes#post-1873643 Mon, 01 Jan 2018 15:44:37 +0000 cindysmith 1873643@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I. Am. So. In.</p> <p>Seriously, I had been trying to get most of my stuff in finds (including the exercise videos &amp; such) Because I'm tired of being disorganized. I also would like to be able to attach finds to posts, even if they're all custom finds because my stupid browser update made my find-grabber thing not work.</p> <p>So yes, I'm in. And thank you for providing motivation! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-finds-challenge-week-1-bags-shoes#post-1873642 Mon, 01 Jan 2018 15:42:44 +0000 Bonnie 1873642@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm doing something similar by featuring and evaluating my 2017 purchases before adding them to my Collections. I've already posted the Shoes and Pants and plan to add Tops, Toppers, Dresses, Coats &amp; Jackets, and Accessories. I finally took photos of the last six items that I could not locate a find for but I think I need to redo the photos, I should have brightened the photos because the originals are dark and misleading. I purchased 45 items this year, so my task won't be as daunting as yours.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-finds-challenge-week-1-bags-shoes#post-1873636 Mon, 01 Jan 2018 15:15:59 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 1873636@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kkards, clever of you to combine tracking &amp; finds!<br /> RA, I think you’ve already found this work-around, but in case not, once you’ve pulled up the collection as kkards describes, you can copy the url (without hitting “post about”) and paste it into a comment. It’s not elegant, but it works. <a href="https://youlookfab.com/finds/collections/?collection=4476" rel="nofollow">https://youlookfab.com/finds/c.....ction=4476</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-finds-challenge-week-1-bags-shoes#post-1873630 Mon, 01 Jan 2018 14:50:04 +0000 kkards 1873630@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rambling Ann...if i understand what you want to do, i think that you can do this already. in finds open the collection that you want to post on...you should see 4 grey oblong's...one will say 'Post about this"...click on this and it will start a post &amp; add the entire collection/ensemble to your post.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-finds-challenge-week-1-bags-shoes#post-1873629 Mon, 01 Jan 2018 14:45:42 +0000 LaPed 1873629@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, good for you! I've started doing the same, albeit in a more scattershot manner, just adding things as I wear them or mention them in a post. The real daunting part will be the handful of ooak/vintage items I'll never be able to find photos of online.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-finds-challenge-week-1-bags-shoes#post-1873625 Mon, 01 Jan 2018 14:37:23 +0000 Rambling Ann 1873625@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The collection feature is awesome. I couldn't have organized the Ocean Park project without it. It would be nice (hint Greg) to be able to post a collection in a comment as well as to start a post.&nbsp;</p> <p>Kaelyn - this is an excellent project. If I were doing it, I'd bet I'd decide there were some things I'd rather donate right then than photograph and post. If I couldn't be bothered to make it a find, then I didn't really love it. I'll be interested to see what you discover in the process. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-finds-challenge-week-1-bags-shoes#post-1873621 Mon, 01 Jan 2018 14:02:55 +0000 Anonymous 1873621@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ahhhh, thank you, Kkards. Great idea and one that will help get everything being worn into Finds. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-finds-challenge-week-1-bags-shoes#post-1873616 Mon, 01 Jan 2018 13:50:42 +0000 kkards 1873616@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>joy....i'm creating an ensemble (subset of collections) in finds. i started last week, so what i've worn and been driven by the coldest weather we have had in a couple of years, but you can see what i'm doing here...<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="https://youlookfab.com/finds/collections/?member=khodes&amp;type=ensemble">https://youlookfab.com/finds/c.....e=ensemble</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-finds-challenge-week-1-bags-shoes#post-1873612 Mon, 01 Jan 2018 13:38:29 +0000 Anonymous 1873612@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy New Year, Kaelyn, this is a great idea. I need to do this too, or at least update some areas. Kkards, I am interested in how you are using ensembles/collections to track wears. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-finds-challenge-week-1-bags-shoes#post-1873607 Mon, 01 Jan 2018 12:53:48 +0000 kkards 1873607@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i'm on it....actually, i've been working towards this exact goal since the start of Dec....but i came at it from a different angle, as i started to wear my winter sweaters, if it wasn't already in finds, i added it. this way, at the end of winter, if it wasn't in finds then i know that i didn't wear it!</p> <p>and as i thought about 2018 goals etc last week i started using the collections/ensembles feature to keep track of what i'm wearing. it's proven easy to do, and i "think" i'll be able to keep it up. (i've been creating ensembles by date with the top, bottom, shoes and outerwear i wore that day...easy...)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-finds-challenge-week-1-bags-shoes#post-1873598 Mon, 01 Jan 2018 11:58:32 +0000 Staysfit 1873598@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I need to do this! It think it would take forever. I haven’t been able to get the YLF collect to work on my new computer either, so that is another task on my list for 2018. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-finds-challenge-week-1-bags-shoes#post-1873589 Mon, 01 Jan 2018 10:19:46 +0000 Style Fan 1873589@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Having my wardrobe on Finds is so helpful.&nbsp; I am still doing the custom finds which is more than 50% of my wardrobe.&nbsp; But I do find when I am organizing my travel capsules it is wonderful to be able to use finds. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-finds-challenge-week-1-bags-shoes#post-1873586 Mon, 01 Jan 2018 10:00:49 +0000 rachylou 1873586@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A worthy endeavour. </p> <p>... And I have to be honest with myself... this is something I’d need to Task Rabbit out... lol. Maybe y'all will inspire me! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-finds-challenge-week-1-bags-shoes#post-1873582 Mon, 01 Jan 2018 07:54:30 +0000 Emily K 1873582@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy New Year, Kaelyn! &nbsp;I have my entire wardrobe in Finds and I love it! &nbsp;(My wardrobe is small and, mostly, recently purchased, so it was not hard to find most of the exact items on-line. &nbsp;I had to photograph just a couple of things and I try to keep up with new purchases by quickly committing them to finds.) &nbsp;Good luck with the challenge! &nbsp;It has been a worthwhile endeavor for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-finds-challenge-week-1-bags-shoes#post-1873579 Mon, 01 Jan 2018 06:52:28 +0000 Kaelyn 1873579@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy New Year, everybody!</p> <p>I have no outfit to post right now because I just stayed home in blue jeans and a cozy hoodie, but I'll be dressed up for fun tomorrow and I'll definitely get a picture--posting more outfit photos was one of my style goals for this year.&nbsp; Teaser: it'll involve unconventional sequins.</p> <p>Another goal some of you expressed interest in joining me on was getting my ENTIRE wardrobe into Finds.&nbsp; I want to use it as an organizational system because I have never been able to find an adequate one elsewhere, and since I enjoy this community so much, I thought it'd be nice to be able to easily reference things I have and use the collections tool to group things together.</p> <p>So without further ado, I offer a YLF Finds Challenge I've been thinking about for the last few weeks!</p> <p>Every week (until it's done), I'm going to set a mini goal to get a portion of my wardrobe into Finds.&nbsp; For others who are interested in joining me, feel free to either use the same mini goal as I'm using, or come up with your own if it suits your needs better.&nbsp; (For example, I own very few bags, so that could easily be a goal for the week, but someone who is a bag person and has LOTS might find that task daunting; or, because I own relatively few of them, I might choose to do bags AND shoes in the same week.)</p> <p>For the first week, I think I WILL do&nbsp;<b>bags and shoes</b>, now that I've mentioned it--I think I own four bags total and a few more pairs of shoes than that, so it's a good amount of work but not too intimidating.&nbsp; Some of them are already in Finds because I added them when I purchased them.&nbsp; Bonus, I'll also do my&nbsp;<b>eyewear</b>, since I only have two pairs of glasses and one pair of sunglasses (which have an outdated prescription and are being kept despite my having gotten transition lenses only because I think they'd still be good for long car rides or spending a great deal of time outside).</p> <p>After I've added everything for my mini goal, I'll comment back here with all my new finds added.&nbsp; I also might reflect a bit on what's missing from certain capsules as I see it all together in one place.&nbsp; If anyone else wants to play, feel free to do the same--let's cheer each other on! </p>
