I'm playing Carla's game too

All outfits from 2009 to 2011:

ETA:

Re my style over the decade: I see a LOT of change, and NO CHANGE at all. Signatures stay signature. Trends waft in and out of favour.

Absolutely no more heels, sleeveless, solid black, sheaths, pencil skirts, and short hemlines.
Intentionally amped up the functional flow, and "soft and pretty" as clever Cardiff Girl observed - which was easy since I'm not a hard edged gal.
Lots more sneakers.
Yorkies all the way....

These are fabulous! and so fun to see. You are very creative and have so much fun with your outfits. I think my favorite in the early set is #7 but they are all so good that it's hard to choose. #14 is the second set is another new to me outfit and I love it. So much fun to see how you interpret the trends.

Thanks Carla and bonnie. I added some 2019 in the first comment

I am VERY consistent with the colours I like to wear, and have a thing for pretty wardrobe items!

So much fun! It's really true that your sour brights have consistently appeared in the closet. Interesting to see the shift away from black, too. I'll bet the more recent photos won't show it as often. But you look fantastic no matter what! Like Carla, I still adore #12 and also the tartan trousers.

This is a fun exercise! I'm not sure I have any pictures that show my outfits in 2010.

Angie, what comes thru to me is that you have, and will always have, fun with fashion. there is a joyfulness that is apparent in each and everyone of these photo's.
(and gosh, i love those white knee high boots, i think they are from before my time here, or at least before i understood the white boot thing, and now i covet them!)

The colors are amazing. My fave is 13 from 2019. Who would think to wear all of those colors together, yet it’s gorgeous.

It’s not obvious, but you can be quite funky, Angie. I LOVE that about your Modern Classic. It’s interesting the different ways you’ve brought that in over the years without going out of bounds.

It's amazing to see how much your style has changed and yet how consistent it is in ways, too.

Thanks for the thoughts and kind words, ladies. You're all so nice.

My best was seeing Jasmine and Rosie in these pics.

Lots more sneakers.....

Suz, YES. I never wear solid black anymore. I'd have eliminated black sooner if there was dark blue at retail 10 years ago!

Taylor, thank you for 11 years of YLF loyalty

kkards, what a lovely observation! I think I may have started the white boot trend......

Helena, I like your F's! Sans the curse word too.

Suntiger, it shows that I LOVE bags. 100% authentic.

Rachy, I'm a Trendy Classic. Or maybe to your point - a Funky Classic! Urban Polish still feels dead right too.

I so agree with you that there's a lot of change and no change at all. My favorite part of your style, though, is how you adopt signature items and milk them as TRUE SIGNATURES for as long as they feel right. So, your pearls and love of bright colors might stay signature forever, but specific items like your turquoise belt or bow brooch, you're not afraid to wear the heck out of while they suit your fancy!

So fun! These are all gorgeous so I am going to pick the ones that would translate best today to my eyes: 6,11,18 and 21. Plus the jodhpur jeans - they are timeless. No I take the whole thing back. They would all translate beautifully on someone, it is your style that has evolved. Just a bit less hectic and more flowy. But gorgeous then and now.

What a treat to see so many interesting outfits together. A lesson on personal style in itself. What strikes me most is the transition from sharper to fluid silhouettes, which I think you described as tomboy to pretty.

It’s really fun to see this photographic timeline of your style, Angie! I remember and love a lot of these; I don’t remember but am completely smitten with #16. You look SO elegant and chic in that black dress. It’s heartwarming to see all the Yorkies again, too.

Angie just popping back to say, the best part of your photos is that you are clearly having a BALL with fashion. So uplifting and inspiring!
