Are you up for a picture perfect challenge? The winter days are long and dreary. What's better than a picture perfect challenge to give you inspiration?
We have quite a few new members on the forum, so here are the rules. I hope everyone gets to play, yay!

How to play / participate

This week (November 25 -)
- Below is a selection(*) of 10 album covers, based loosely on the world's best selling albums list (and my musical preferences!:)
- Please vote for your favorite images (up to 5).
- You can vote even if you don't plan to participate.
- 5 images with the most votes will be our inspiration for creating outfits the following week, one image per day.
- I will tally the votes on Friday and post the schedule for the next week. You can have all weekend to plan your outfits.


Next week (December 1 - )
- Each day you will wear, photograph and post on the forum an outfit inspired by the selected image. You can be inspired by the colors, the shapes, the mood, the name of the album- anything about it that strikes your fancy and tickles your imagination, really.
- I will start a new thread each day for you to post your outfits so that all outfits can be seen on a single thread. This works best and we don't inundate the forum with many many new threads every day.
• You can do all 5 days, or just participate for one day. No pressure!

What is the purpose of the challenge?
• The first rule of YLF: Have fun with fashion!

• But also: come up with new combinations, learn to draw inspiration from unorthodox sources, widen our imagination, see how different members interpret the same visual sources differently, etc. and did I say have fun?

Here are your candidates:
1. The Beatles - Abbey road, 1969
2. Alanis Morissette - Jagged Little Pill, 1995
3. Meat Loaf, Bat out of Hell, 1977
4. Bruce Springsteen, Born in the USA, 1984
5. Pink Floyd, Dark Side of the Moon, 1973
6. Dirty Dancing Soundrack, 1987
7. Santana, Supernatural, 1999
8. The Beatles, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, 1967
9. The Bodyguard Soundtrack, 1992
10. Michael Jackson, Thriller, 1982

Please bump this thread as necessary. Let the voting begin!

ETA: A big thanks to Ornella, who gave me the gentle nudge that I needed to start this challenge.
