this is the second challenge being issued to the forum this week! please feel free to participate in both, or either, or just give the ones who are participating the feedback and encouragement we love you for -- we welcome your participation in any way :).

challenge #2 is designed to help build up your holiday spirit! your challenge is to be inspired by your favorite holiday movie. come up with, and post, an outfit based on that movie -- either by a particular character, the general mood of the film, a color combination, a moving scene -- whatever floats your boat.

the idea is to help you hone that idea of finding inspiration anywhere... plus, come on, doesn't that sound like a christmas project that's a little more fun than wrapping dozens of presents?

remember, no YLF challenge will ever require you to buy anything new... but at the same time, try to step out of your box, and try not to shirk away from something that seems difficult. my favorite holiday movies are the animated 'how the grinch stole christmas,' the charlie brown christmas special, and 'the nightmare before christmas' -- how i'm going to interpret any of those i'm not entirely sure, but try to embrace the challenge!

let me know if you have any questions; otherwise, feel free to start posting outfits on this thread as soon as you like! have fun!
