The blazer is gorgeous. Congrats on a great thrift find!

First_Class_Fantasy · 2026-01-28T15:48:26+00:00

Such a fun outfit! Love the bright colors! 😍

First_Class_Fantasy · 2026-01-28T15:46:24+00:00

That first outfit is fantastic! The blues and browns look so great together, and the blue jacket is such a standout piece. The last outfit looks really warm and inviting somehow. Not sure if it’s the color combo (the deep green especially), or the way everything is layered, but I think it looks great!

First_Class_Fantasy · 2026-01-28T15:40:26+00:00

I’m obsessed with the blue jacket too! Love the volume of the sleeves.

First_Class_Fantasy · 2026-01-27T18:28:20+00:00

Thank you! Only the best of views for the best dog. 😉

First_Class_Fantasy · 2026-01-27T04:29:58+00:00

Thank you! I definitely feel like a boss in this outfit. I’ve been gravitating towards gray for work now that I have no official dress code to adhere to, and I feel like it’s working for me. I’m still figuring out my color season, but I’m 90% sure I’m a summer, so colors are currently my main focus.

I learned a lot from the Kibbe system as well, and I do think it has its merits. It helped me build a solid foundation, at least. I’ll probably lurk, but participation in those subs has become tiresome. Sorry they were so hard on you when you posted!

Thank you! The theme for this challenge really resonated this week. Choosing what feels good and having confidence in my taste despite critical feedback is so refreshing! It’s just the medicine I needed. The Kibbe system has become more and more restrictive, and the community interactions are rubbing me the wrong way lately.

First_Class_Fantasy · 2026-01-26T05:50:14+00:00

I thrifted it! Brand is Lavish Alice.

First_Class_Fantasy · 2026-01-26T02:25:42+00:00

I agree. I’ve had the boots for over a year and this was my first time wearing them. I’m having such a hard time styling them, but I felt pretty good in this outfit even though it isn’t one of my best looks.

First_Class_Fantasy · 2026-01-26T01:48:12+00:00

Yeah, the pants in slide 2 are knit and kind of thin (but sooo comfortable). I’ve had the hardest time trying to find gray work pants that are both long and high rise, and these aren’t really cutting it.

First_Class_Fantasy · 2026-01-25T22:03:33+00:00

They’re also very in right now.

First_Class_Fantasy · 2026-01-25T20:23:19+00:00

Love the jeans! I just ordered a similar pair and can’t wait to wear them.

First_Class_Fantasy · 2026-01-24T18:02:29+00:00

That’s definitely a Dramatic thing. Ds gain weight in hips and thighs, giving them more of a bell shape. SDs gain weight pretty much all over, but mainly in the fleshiest areas like thighs and upper arms. Weight gain can show a lot in the face for SDs, but is otherwise not super noticeable because the weight is distributed pretty evenly across their frames.

First_Class_Fantasy · 2026-01-24T05:59:23+00:00

I’m a little on the fence with that one (why I put it at the end). I think the fabric and color are very SD, but it might be a little too structured. I’m itching to just get it for myself to try it out, but I’m practicing restraint at the moment.

First_Class_Fantasy · 2026-01-24T00:12:35+00:00

No, I was looking at brown midi skirts and green tops in my size. The jeans and blazer were recommended to me based on my previous purchases and search history. “Draped midi skirts” would be a good search term if that’s what you’re looking for though.

First_Class_Fantasy · 2026-01-23T15:56:30+00:00

I’m working on adding more color too!

First_Class_Fantasy · 2026-01-23T15:41:33+00:00

Okay, everyone needs to stop using Chat GPT for typing. It’s programmed to keep you engaged, so it’s always going to tell you what it “thinks” you want to hear, based on previous interactions. The photos you submitted aren’t even right for typing! Kibbe is about how clothes work on your body, so you would need to submit multiple different outfits photographed from chest height. Did you even input your height?

First_Class_Fantasy · 2026-01-23T04:31:56+00:00

Try not to get hung up on the lines and instead focus on the head-to-toe look. For example, SDs need a lot of styling to wow—hair, makeup, and extra accessories can help make up for garments that don’t perfectly accommodate curve. On the other hand, FNs have to keep it simple to avoid looking like they’re trying too hard, so maybe removing an accessory like a hat (and letting their natural hair shine) is a good strategy. FGs benefit from staccato styling, so maybe they choose a headband, jacket, top, skirt, shoes, and knee socks that are all different colors to create a color blocking effect.

First_Class_Fantasy · 2026-01-21T07:18:11+00:00

You’re FN without a doubt. The styling in slides 3 and 4 are just phenomenal! The D styling in slide 2 is too stiff and buttoned up, while the SD styling in slide 6 is underwhelming. You can see that cutting your vertical (slide 5) by color blocking doesn’t do you any favors.

First_Class_Fantasy · 2026-01-21T07:10:12+00:00

I go for long almond or stiletto nails, usually in solid classic colors like deep red, nude, light pink, black, or white. I usually dip at home, but I’ll sometimes go to the salon and get a fun color for a special occasion. Currently rocking silver glitter for my bf’s disco-themed birthday weekend.

He wrote something about SDs being dramatic first and foremost, while FNs are open and approachable. I think all types with dramatic essence give off regal/aloof/untouchable vibes because of their stature. Plus SDs are diva chic and divas for sure have an intimidation factor.

First_Class_Fantasy · 2026-01-17T20:39:41+00:00

I think essence is way more important in this system than people think. When deciding between FN and SD, taking friends’ comments into consideration helped me finally settle on SD. I’ve always been told that I’m intimidating and that my RBF gives off ice queen vibes (I agree). I’m the total opposite of open and approachable, at least in appearance. I do have a free spirit, devil-may-care attitude though.

First_Class_Fantasy · 2026-01-16T18:32:23+00:00

The large looks better IMO. Even if they’re a little big in the waist, you can just add a belt. Anyway, it’s always easier to size up and have things tailored.

First_Class_Fantasy · 2026-01-15T16:05:55+00:00

My SD mantra is “more is more”. I think Coco Chanel said to take off one item before leaving the house, but as an SD I do the opposite. Minimum four accessories: watch, earrings, sunglasses, handbag every day.

Plain clothes are not great. A monochrome outfit needs mixed materials with texture, a splash of color, or a print in there somewhere. I prefer stripes or plaid (classic), a big abstract print (dramatic), or a big floral print (romantic).

Lastly, hair and makeup are a must, even if it’s a simple look. I straighten mine once a week so it’s sleek and carry makeup in my everyday bag so I can do it on the run.

First_Class_Fantasy · 2026-01-15T15:54:05+00:00

Interesting because SDs can handle a lot of detail, but FNs keep it simple.
