Spring look inspired by "random" finds

I am a HUGE fan of the YLF finds feature and use it a lot. I collect and uncollect items for all kinds of reasons. I love "shopping" the master find list, it's better than any online site because the variety is huge. And the top picks are always so fab.

Yesterday I was collecting ideas for pretty ankle flats or low heeled shoes for spring. I've also been looking at cream and red bags for a while. And today's bell sleeve posting had some pretty choices that I liked.

So, just now I noticed these 5 items right at the top of my personal finds. I think this is going to be my inspiration for a small pretty/polished capsule for spring! (I also threw in a red bag which I collected some days ago and the red blouse I bought recently)

Has anyone else found outfit inspiration pops up randomly (or maybe not so randomly) in your finds list?

Have you ever used ROG?

These are really cute and would be great outfits. I don't use my finds as much as I should. I look through them once in a while for an overall refresher of my style aspirations but other than that tend to forget about it. I need to start using it more I think.

I, too, go shopping in Finds when I need some inspiration -- not my finds, but scrolling through what everyone else has gathered. I do a lot of aspirational "what's my style?" shopping in the big Finds
database, because it's so much more accessible and practical for me than
the rabbit hole of Pinterest.

When I was trying to figure out what kinds of sneakers I liked, for example,I searched the huge Finds database for "sneakers." When you do that, you get a cross- section of what's currently available at actual stores, culled through by people with tastes somewhere in the ballpark with mine. I didn't have to visit online site after online site, trying to find out the range of options being currently offered.

Finds are great and I use them for my own wardrobe planning, but unfortunately finds don't work at majority of retailers that I use, so I have to do a lot of custom finds.
And also most items in finds and top picks are not available in this part of world. Which is maybe good for my budget

Those are cute finds Chris. I love finds and am very happy I figured out how to use them. I love looking through the top picks for inspiration. I am on the hunt for a few items and finds is perfect.
I also use the ensembles and capsules features. It is great to keep track of my favourite WIWs and also ideas about what to do with items. It takes me back to when I had dolls and I would make clothes for them.
Pinterest is okay but it is not my exact clothes. Finds is more fun.

(I LOVE the Finds feature too. I organize my shopping, wardrobe and capsule packing on it - as well as everything else).

Liking your pretty and polished Spring capsule, and can see you in all the items, Chris.

Runcarla yes I have tried ROG but I don't end up liking much of what it puts together. Not sure why. I keep going back from time to time.

Thanks RobinF.

Liz, exactly!

Anchie yes I think finds are more suited to US retailers so if you are not in the US (I know you are not) it's not as useful.

Thanks Angie!

I really enjoy using Finds, too--partly inspired by the post you wrote about archiving shoes. The serendipitous grouping Finds gave you is very pretty!

Thanks Emily!

I really like all of your choices. I look to the Finds feature to help me find specific items. For instance, I'm looking for summer weight pants and checking to see what members have found will save me a lot of time.

Those area lovely and seem to belong to the same closet (yours, soon, I hope!)
