It would be great if YLF could get a big boost with the launch of the redesign, and word of mouth is a powerful way to get the word out.</p> <p>Lots of "boosts" today!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-forumwide-challenge/page/2#post-212133 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 02:18:06 +0000 Debbie 212133@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Did it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-forumwide-challenge/page/2#post-212123 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 02:13:36 +0000 quail 212123@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-forumwide-challenge/page/2#post-212101 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 01:59:43 +0000 Tara 212101@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hey Quail, go ahead and take it! Lol, the YLF Marketing Machine kicks into full gear! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-forumwide-challenge/page/2#post-212093 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 01:56:10 +0000 quail 212093@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>And Laura, bless you for starting this thread! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-forumwide-challenge/page/2#post-212091 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 01:55:25 +0000 quail 212091@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tara, what a great email! With your permission I may just steal it wholesale from you because you summed up all the points I rave about so nicely. I've told a bunch of my friends about YLF but I will definitely join in the Facebook status update, and will try to spread the word more. I really doubt there's anywhere else like this on the web. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-forumwide-challenge/page/2#post-212082 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 01:45:31 +0000 Tara 212082@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here's what I wrote:</p> <p>Hi girls,</p> <p>One of my favourite fashion/style websites, <a href="http://www.youlookfab.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.youlookfab.com</a>, just relaunched their website today and it's fabulous. I know not everyone is into "fashion" as such but this site is excellent if you're wondering how to develop your own personal style, make the most of your figure and dress yourself easily so you look and feel fabulous, or if you just want to find some basic advice on dressing for any occasion.</p> <p>One of the best things about it is how it caters to ALL women, not just a particular set (i.e. 18-25 tall, slim model type girls with lots of disposable income, or teenyboppers).</p> <p>I thoroughly recommend you check it out.</p> <p>Some features:</p> <p> * Daily blog from Angie Cox, a fantastic stylist and image consultant based in Seattle. She posts on topics such as accessories, outfit "forumlas" for ideas on how to use clothes you already have in your closet, latest trends, how to wear items like cardigans, jeans etc. in different ways, how to dress business casual, and a LOT more. Some posts:<br /> o Messy scarf for summer - casual or dressy ways<br /> o What you wear when you're feeling blue<br /> o Autumn "mum on the go" outfit formula (great casual ideas for anyone though!)<br /> * You Look Fab Forum People post on style/fashion topics, ask Angie specific questions, ask forum members for input on outfits and where to get different items, and post pics of their daily outfits. There's women from all over the world and the community vibe is really excellent and quite unusual for such a global site. Very supportive and encouraging for everyone.</p> <p>I love this site and have had a lot of fun with it. I hope you will too! Even if you're not really into fashion I suggest you have a look, you might find something useful :-)</p> <p>Love Tara xoxo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-forumwide-challenge/page/2#post-212049 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 01:09:13 +0000 Michelle 212049@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My facebook status currently reads:<br /> Fashion keeners in quest of a fabulous style resource must check this site out at once! Newly renovated and better than ever!<br /> <a href="http://www.youlookfab.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.youlookfab.com/</a></p> <p>More word-spreading via email will ensue. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-forumwide-challenge/page/2#post-212036 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 00:51:56 +0000 crwilson 212036@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've shared with a number of friends, but as Kari said, I haven't seen them turn up in the forums, so I don't know if they delved that deeply. I know that one of my friends printed off all of the pretty pear recommendations, though. I definitely spread the word whenever I get a chance because this is by far the nicest online community I've been a part of. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-forumwide-challenge/page/2#post-212032 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 00:45:24 +0000 chewyspaghetti 212032@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't Facebook ;( </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-forumwide-challenge/page/2#post-212004 Tue, 07 Sep 2010 23:45:37 +0000 Kari 212004@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'll certainly send out some recommendations!</p> <p>I've recommended it to family and friends, and even linked to some specific threads in the past. (However, I'm kind of curious how deeply any of them delved into the forum as I haven't yet received any comments about my "online persona" from friends who know me only in real life.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-forumwide-challenge/page/2#post-211981 Tue, 07 Sep 2010 22:56:18 +0000 Sihaya 211981@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie you have much to be proud of! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-forumwide-challenge/page/2#post-211980 Tue, 07 Sep 2010 22:54:32 +0000 Angie 211980@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This thread just got added to my favourites list. </p> <p>I am so, SO pleased to hear that you (the people who responded on this thread) are not embarrassed about sharing and spreading the YLF word with others. You can imagine how it makes Greg and I feel when this is not the case. We believe that YLF is something to be very proud of - which is why we pour our heart and soul into it. Thank you for doing the same </p> <p>Now I have to pack for NYFW. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-forumwide-challenge/page/2#post-211899 Tue, 07 Sep 2010 19:47:22 +0000 Ana 211899@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've already done this with several friends, but I'm going to tweet this tonight when I get home. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-forumwide-challenge/page/2#post-211795 Tue, 07 Sep 2010 16:16:10 +0000 Lynne 211795@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm in...Holland and Denmark should be online soon </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-forumwide-challenge/page/2#post-211784 Tue, 07 Sep 2010 16:06:25 +0000 sinead 211784@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a great idea, Laura. I talk about YLF, but a link would probably do a lot more good. I'm on it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-forumwide-challenge/page/2#post-211752 Tue, 07 Sep 2010 15:20:27 +0000 Vani 211752@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've already spread the YLF love to my family, friends and colleagues - even as far as India - but I can always do more! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-forumwide-challenge/page/2#post-211750 Tue, 07 Sep 2010 15:15:55 +0000 Carole 211750@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Me too!

I will immediately email and text my uninformed fashionista friends. Most of my partners in fashion crime already know about YLF, but I'm spreading the word. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-forumwide-challenge#post-211727 Tue, 07 Sep 2010 14:42:46 +0000 Angie 211727@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Many thanks to those who are sharing YLF with friends, family and work colleagues. It is much appreciated. Keep spreading the word! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-forumwide-challenge#post-211650 Tue, 07 Sep 2010 10:55:35 +0000 Kristen 211650@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I link to and refer to YLF frequently; even just sent the MOTG to a fellow childless friend. She was looking to upgrade her casual work clothes from jeans and cardigans, so I sent her the links to have a place to start before we went shopping. She liked all of them except the leggings look, but learned a lot about layering, using scarves more, etc. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-forumwide-challenge#post-211642 Tue, 07 Sep 2010 09:58:19 +0000 Laura 211642@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So happy to read this at 5 a.m.! Makes it worth being up early.</p> <p>Tara, if anyone wants to share what they wrote or what their friends said, that will give others ideas of how to spread the word.</p> <p>Boosts for everyone </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-forumwide-challenge#post-211618 Tue, 07 Sep 2010 05:30:32 +0000 Tara 211618@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Woohoo! I just emailed about 10 of my girlfriends.<br /> Lol I'm pretty sure I could market You Look Fab profesionally! I was raving about it in my email. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-forumwide-challenge#post-211605 Tue, 07 Sep 2010 04:29:51 +0000 Sihaya 211605@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>On it's way. I will report back in when I hear things from people as they check out the site. </p> <p>Laura - thanks for starting this thread. </p> <p>anyone else have any ideas on how to make YLF viral? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-forumwide-challenge#post-211592 Tue, 07 Sep 2010 04:11:30 +0000 Reneeb 211592@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have been doing that but will keep it up. That is the least we can do for all Angie &amp; Greg has done for us. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-forumwide-challenge#post-211589 Tue, 07 Sep 2010 04:05:56 +0000 bj1111 211589@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>done, done and done. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-forumwide-challenge#post-211582 Tue, 07 Sep 2010 03:39:49 +0000 An 211582@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another one for down under </p>
