One thing that hasn't changed is how beautiful you look in those colors. I think the things we all have in common is how Angie has helped us to hone and own our style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-then-now#post-611120 Thu, 03 May 2012 05:38:35 +0000 Amy 611120@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with AJ...you've refined the proportions of your outfits, Deborah, but your innate sense of style shows through both then and now.</p> <p>I'm pretty sure this is the first I posted back in 2009 (!) At the time, I found the process of sharing outfits harrowing, rather than helpful, so I didn't participate much until late 2011. Obviously, things have changed ;)</p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/quixoticpixels/3679183514/" rel="nofollow">http://www.flickr.com/photos/q.....679183514/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-then-now#post-611119 Thu, 03 May 2012 05:35:41 +0000 AJ 611119@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've made my flickr account private and there is no option on this thread to post a pic.

I think #3 comes under the WWIT category (What was I thinking) lol. </p> <p>So will you be posting any photos?? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-then-now#post-611117 Thu, 03 May 2012 05:31:05 +0000 AJ 611117@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooohhh, you had great style in the beginning too! What I see now is a refinement of proportions but the same artsy, clean lines with bold contrasts, still shines through. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-then-now#post-611112 Thu, 03 May 2012 05:18:30 +0000 Deborah 611112@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jenava, it's a lovely dress it's just the color isn't it?

I think I remember Kari's first WIW! :D</p> <p>Deborah, your first WIW outfit has mine beat by a MILE. Mine was terrible. One of these days (maybe soon) I'll have to post my first WIW for comparison. ; ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-then-now#post-611049 Thu, 03 May 2012 03:57:34 +0000 anne 611049@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Totally embarassing.</p> <p>Here is a very early post (though to be fair, this wasn't an outfit I was happy with at the time) I ws 3 months postpartum at this poing!<br /> <a href="http://i297.photobucket.com/albums/mm234/anneinoz/100_5372.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i297.photobucket.com/al.....0_5372.jpg</a></p> <p>I was going to show you is a currrent one with some things I have adopted post YLF - like clams, white bottoms and neckalces - but I can't post pics on a real time post. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-then-now#post-611044 Thu, 03 May 2012 03:50:54 +0000 sarah 611044@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ah, what fun (although #3 is not that bad, Deborah). I think I deleted all of my earlier YLF photos because I couldn't stand to look at them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-then-now#post-611031 Thu, 03 May 2012 03:34:59 +0000 Deborah 611031@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kari, this is great! You looked lovely in your earlier photos but it is clear that your style has evolved. I think one of Angie's gifts is in releasing our creativity and broadening our style horizons. </p> <p>I see a lot more of your character, or personality, in your more current posts. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-then-now#post-611023 Thu, 03 May 2012 03:27:27 +0000 Kari 611023@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>One of my first YLF outfits (some color, but pants, and pants that are too long for the shoes I'm wearing at that... <a href="http://inkariswardrobe.blogspot.com/2009/02/color-contrasts.html" rel="nofollow">http://inkariswardrobe.blogspo.....rasts.html</a>)</p> <p>Another early post that, funny enough, echoes the color concepts I'm playing with today - minus the pants! But maybe I'll wear that scarf with my blue dress? <a href="http://inkariswardrobe.blogspot.com/2009/02/not-great-day.html" rel="nofollow">http://inkariswardrobe.blogspo.....t-day.html</a></p> <p>In contrast, my more recent style: <a href="http://pencilskirtlife.lookfab.com/post/musing-about-style-evolution" rel="nofollow">http://pencilskirtlife.lookfab.....-evolution</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-then-now#post-611020 Thu, 03 May 2012 03:24:06 +0000 Deborah 611020@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kari look forward to seeing them:)</p> <p>I have all my pics on my phone lol..never leave home without them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-then-now#post-611019 Thu, 03 May 2012 03:23:29 +0000 anne 611019@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Deborah (I do like outfit 3 though) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-then-now#post-611017 Thu, 03 May 2012 03:22:03 +0000 Kari 611017@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Deborah, I think what I see is a high degree of sophistication - your style has become kind of more polished but also more artsy. You ROCK black and white and abstract prints. And I think you have really grown to know what outfits will flatter your beautiful figure very well over time!</p> <p>I'll post mine in a moment as soon as I can dig them up.</p> <p>(ETA: I also like how even at the early stages of your participation in YLF, you had a sense of what haircut worked for you, and it's stayed consistently fab since the beginning!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ylf-then-now#post-611015 Thu, 03 May 2012 03:19:56 +0000 Deborah 611015@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really enjoyed Transcona Shannon's post "Side by side comparison". </p> <p><a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/side-by-side-comparison" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....comparison</a></p> <p>So I thought it could be fun to share an early YLF WIW next too a more current one and a great exercise in seeing how much we have grown and learnt on our style journey to date.</p> <p>Would anyone like to play?</p> <p>I'm embarrassed! But I will go first.</p> <p>I remember feeling very nervous and self conscious taking my first WIW pic. DH took it for me :)</p> <p>Now I take my own pictures using a timer, found a better spot in the house for photos and actually enjoy doing my WIW pics.</p> <p>#1 &amp; #2<br /> are both from the last couple of months</p> <p>#3<br /> my first ever WIW</p> <p>For the record, I gave the skirt in #3 to my mum! </p> <p>Hope to see yours, and feel free to include a few pics if you wish.</p> <p>xxx Deborah </p>
