Hi everyone, nice to meet you all! I joined this forum to get some fashion-clarity for myself and I’ve been reading it a lot. So helpful and very inspiring!
I have a small shop I would like to invite you to visit:

Hi, I'm Adela! I just signed up an hour ago. I hope to learn some fashion tips from everyone here and help a little with what I can. I'm a makeup, nail polish and perfume lover but I noticed that I tend to not pay as much attention to my clothes as I should! I usually buy T-shirt dresses because I can wear them with converse or flats and they're something I can just throw on and go haha

I’m an elder millennial looking to plan out my office outfits and get some ideas along the way. I’m an online thrift store shopper, avid Pinterest user. Always looking for the next versatile item to complement my collection.

Hi, I'm new! A Gen Xer in NYC, I'm usually on the hunt for wardrobe for my creative-corporate job. I used to wear all black, but I'm slowly converting to navy Most of my transportation is via foot, subway, or bus, so chic and comfortable shoes are a very high priority.

Hi!! I'm new here, and am looking forward to talking about clothes!!
My favorite look is what people call boho..Johnny Was is my favorite brand. I also like Anthropologie, Free People, some J. Crew, and random TJ Maxx Runway brands.
I live In Southern California, so I don't get many opportunities to wear gorgeous coats and furry boots, sadly!! I prefer winter clothes, but usually have to wear lighter style clothing. So my newest quest, is finding casual yet still stylish dresses. Thanks for having me

Bernard, where did you go??? Your post is now from “anonymous”.

Hello! I joined a few months ago to get some good intel on style and you guys really deliver! I'm interested in improving my style self-expression and finding more fun and unusual fashion items. I'm probably a mix of rock-chick, hippie and relaxed/minimalist in terms of style - and a t-shirt and jeans person most of the time in reality. Looking for some fun and inspiration and good fashion chat!

Hi, I'm new! I'm about to turn 40 and have a mostly casual lifestyle at the moment in a very anything-goes male dominated career field, but even when I don't have reason to get dressed up/it wouldn't work for my day, I like to put thought into what clothes I combine and why and make my outfits more than "just clothes," even if it's jeans and a t-shirt, and I enjoy looking at and talking about clothes from a visual standpoint regardless. I think one of my goals is to better incorporate the styles I am drawn to (part tweedy professor, part lumberjack, part rock and roll, part western-y boho) in a way that is cohesive and also practical. There's no reason flannel can't have style and visual appeal if done right! This seems like a really positive-minded community so I decided to take a risk and join.

Hi, I’m Lee! I was born in 2002. I don’t really have a signature style, as I dress according to what the job demands (and up til recently, I was wearing a school uniform every day). I like wearing comfortable clothes

I sew clothes as a hobby, which led me to discover more about my body, and to this site

Hello! I'm Angela. So I guess I should say that I'm currently having a fashion moment. In the past, due to many reasons, I struggled a lot with clothes and fashion, and so I tended to over rely on black pants and black shoes as the safe option. I literally went years without buying new clothes, only taking in old clothes to a tailor to be fixed, because shopping was just so hard, plus being fearful about money. Then in the spring my clothes situation turned dire. That coincided with sitting on top of some savings from the past year. It took a while for me to figure out how to buy clothes. My body size tends to fluctuate a lot, and I'm also tall. When I go into stores and look for plus sized, what I can find is usually ugly and makes me feel bad about myself. Because I'm tall, most of the time stores don't carry what I need and need to order anyway. I also have a large frame in the hands, feet, and shoulders -- I would be average sized if I were a man. I'm thin at size 10 and 12, I'm plump at size 14 and 16, and I'm fat at size 18 and 20. I'm currently between size 18 and 20, although I've been losing weight since the summer. I also am very curvy in the breasts and hips at whatever size. I remember as a skinny teenager feeling bad after putting on a dress meant for girls with straight figures, and being reassured by the sales associate that it was fine because I can give birth easily -- that certainly did not help.

So in the spring when I tried to replace my black pants, I knew that stores wouldn't carry my size and need to order anyway, so I looked online and ended up ordering from Woman Within. I strongly disliked my experience with that company and I disliked the clothes I got from them. After that, as we were heading into summer, I got it into my head that I was determined to wear linen pants, and I had to search very hard to find something that was both plus size and tall, but I did. And I loved those linen pants to death -- they made me feel good. I went on a bit of a linen spree after that. Long story short, I eventually found my way to ebay. And I discovered that ebay was by far the easiest way for me to shop. I had a lot more options available to me and I could even be picky. The first amazing find for me was a brown blouse in high quality silk, thick and matte. The next amazing find for me was a pair of burgundy wool pants. I didn't know what to wear with the burgundy pants other than a black pants, but I was very attracted to the idea of wearing red and colorful pants.

Then as I was trying to figure out what to wear with the burgundy pants, I was taking tops from my closet and just laying them across the pants to see how they go together. I took out a blouse that has a navy blue background and a pattern of bright orangish-pink flowers. It looked amazing with the top! And I felt amazing wearing that top with those burgundy pants.

I thought about why that top goes with those pants so well, and I realized it has to do with complementary colors. The navy and the burgundy harmonize in their intensity but are different in their colors. And the orangeish-pink and the burgundy harmonize in their color family but are different in their intensity. The result is an outfit that is harmonious and dynamic at the same time. So now I'm very interested in recreating that same sort of harmony/dynamism in other outfits, and I've been playing with colors and tones.

I've considered the clothes in my closet and what it is that I really like. I love natural and luxurious fabrics. I love playing with colors. And I love patterns, although not all patterns. So I am currently in the process of completely overhauling my wardrobe. Put my clothes that don't fit into storage -- I don't want to get rid of it because of how easily I gain and lose weight -- and got rid of clothes that I just don't like. Now my closet is filled only with clothes that I can wear right now and that I want to wear. When clothes are just a bit wrong, I take them to a tailor I found who is very good. And I'm playing with my clothes and figuring out outfits.

I like the people on this forum and I hope to be a part of this community!

Hi! I’m Acyss. Like many here, I believe in the power of style to recreate how we see ourselves. I’m interested in redefining my sense of style so that it better reflects the stage of life I’m in. Looking forward to connecting!

Hi all! I am a new member although I have been reading for years. I am an avid gardener with a passion for the outdoors, but with a very urban, tech profession. Trying to hone my style sense and refine my self-expression and communication through style.

I am a member (susieq), got a new phone & couldn’t log in because I didn’t save my username or password. Ugh! Anyway I’m back, using a new username after creating a new account. My husband & I are retired & will be moving to Mexico in June if all goes as planned.

Hello, I'm from Marina Del Ray, my interests are on my profile, just joined up. Looking forward to discussing fashion for once. Not lot of opportunity to discuss fashion if your a guy but it's a life long interest of mine.

Hello everyone, I’ve been following YLF for many years, and have finally decided to sign up. I’m another Canadian from Montreal. I love the creativity of putting looks together and I’d describe my fashion style as casual, cute classic. Looking forward to participating in these fashion discussions.

Hi! I'm new to the forum. I've just been learning (at age 49!) about my body type, what looks good on me and what my style is. Kinda crazy, I know, but I've never really cared before and it showed. I recently lost 65# and am in the best shape of my life. I figured my new wardrobe should be carefully chosen to be ME!

My body type is inverted triangle, and my style is something between natural and boho, but those aren't quite it either, so I'm not really sure what to call it.

Hi there, another (very) longtime blog reader, new to the forum! I was a very active member (same username) on the long-ago forums FashionHag/Stylethread, if there are any other crossover folks :-). I love to shop and thrift and read tons of style/fashion blogs!

That said, I'm 38 and living in the PNW, land of 'dress' fleece and rain jackets. I prefer a casual/athlesiure style, but I'm transitioning back to a more professional position after working from home for the last several years. I'm petite but carry a bit more weight than I used to, and am struggling to find clothes that fit what is apparently a complex Venn diagram of competing needs/priorities. I have trouble pulling the trigger on more expensive items, in part because it's more painful when the item ends up not being the workhorse I thought it would be. I'm trying to turn a new leaf and shop more purposefully, so this is part of my effort to DIY my style overhaul before engaging a personal stylist of some stripe.

Nice to be here!

Hi! I'm new here. I'm 40, a mom of three, and work remotely most of the time but in the office once a week. I'm 5'9" and my style is some combo of preppy, sporty, and classic. Before starting back to the office this spring, I worked entirely from home for years. So, after adding a third baby, turning 40, and heading back to the office at least some of the time, I'm just looking for ideas for updating my wardrobe. Styles and my taste have both changed a little and I'm looking to weed out what doesn't work and fill in any gaps that exist.

Hello, I'm Laura a new member, I'm happy to join this forum, I'm not used to the forum yet I'm not sure where to post what. I already posted in the welcome forum but it looks like here is more appropriate for an introduction.

I'm a mum of 4 preteens/teens and
happy to find a place to talk fashion and styles and all we can do to
keep my and their clothes nicer longer.

Hi I just joined. I’m in my late 50’s mother to 3 grown children and have 4 grandchildren.

I’m always looking for help with fashion as I’m a larger woman but in between regular and plus size. Thanks for the forum.

Hello! I'm WillaFriend, and I have been a member for five years (!!!!) and have yet to post anything. I figured that now is finally the time, LOL.

About me: I'm 43, an office worker who's currently WFH and might be WFH permanently. I love cats and hate driving, haha.

The reason I am here: I have no personal style. I can see what looks good on other people but not myself. I'm trying to change that and that's what brought me to this site and this forum.

I am going to try to comment now on forum posts but I am pretty shy!

Hello I'm a newbie here and love that I've found a community who enjoy fashion like I do and have such a wide variety of styles.

I'm a WFH coach and digital trainer, coming up to 50 and of a British Indian background - so a wide variety of style influences!

I'm always looking for stress-free styling and currently creating multiple capsule wardrobes (bit of a paradox) for different bits of my life, and simultaneously keep my wardrobe manageable.

Guilty secret: have more coats than tops, more shoes than both and more bags than all of them collectively. Sigh.

Hi!
I am new here. Unlike a lot of people, I don't really have a passion for fashion. Don't get me wrong, I like dressing myself up, rethinking my look etc. But to me, it's still a matter of 'improvement'. I don't dress up 'for me' or 'to feel good'. I feel like I'm in a constant battle to accept and dress my body. Therefore, shopping always feel like something I have to do. I buy clothes to cover up, not to show off. And I want to change that.

As a 28 y/o female, I notice that people think I'm way younger than I actually am. That sounds like a compliment, but it is actually not. People never take me seriously, even doctors say stuff like "you're too young to think about children" while I'm probably in my peak of fertility. And at work I'm always the 'student' instead of the 'staff'. So even though I clearly dress like a millennial, people think I'm way younger.

So my goal is to dress better and age appropriate, find my own style and point out my assets.

Hey YooLookFab Community!

I'm Andy Sartorius, a fashion enthusiast with a penchant for pieces that tell a story, especially those that challenge the norms of traditional style. My journey in the fashion world is fueled by a desire to explore the art behind the attire, blending aesthetics with functionality in a way that speaks to the soul.

Fashion, to me, is more than just clothing; it's a canvas for self-expression, a way to visually articulate our ever-changing narratives. I have a particular fascination for reversible fashion—imagine having the versatility of two distinct styles in one piece! This concept has inspired me to delve deeper into the fashion industry, exploring how we can wear our imagination and reverse our style to match the fluidity of our lives.

Beyond my professional endeavors, I'm an avid art lover and an explorer at heart, constantly seeking inspiration from the world around me. Joining the YooLookFab community, I'm excited to share insights, engage in thought-provoking discussions, and connect with fellow fashion aficionados who dare to dream and dress beyond the ordinary.

Looking forward to exchanging ideas, trends, and inspirations with you all. Let’s redefine fashion together, one reversible piece at a time.

Cheers to endless possibilities,
Andy
