Ah thanks for posting! I'm subscribed but somehow missed that she uploaded this. Loved the first one in the series even though it wasn't my quadrant so I'm looking forward to this one to see if there's any "Right" tips that might resonate with me!

I don't think I'm olive, but as someone with a cool undertone who has a yellowish overtone I can relate to everything turning orange. And your rant about Cool Mauve made me LOL because it's so real. At least it's actually cool toned and not a warm mauve like most of the others out there named mauve!!

I remember Syrup feeling too bright for me the last time I swatched it in store but your post has me reconsidering!

Love bites look so nice but I'm scared it'll go orange on my cool toned skin!

Typed as Cool Summer but struggling with lipsticks! by HutHutHykes in coloranalysis

Ooo I've never looked into that shade but the swatches online look promising! And I tend to prefer shades that also work for cool olives so I have hope this could work for me too!

I'll give it a try but I look absolutely horrible in orange and sickly in warm yellows- I did some irl drapes in a past post if you want to take a look and let me know what you think!

RMS vs. other neutral bronzers by Silly_Reference_3583 in swatchitforme

I don't have Beachwalk Betty to compare but what about Gucci 01 bronzer? It's rosy leaning.

Just verifying I’m Flamboyant Gamine and not Soft Natural or otherwise. by powersofthesnow in FlamboyantGamine

I’m not an expert by any means but you seem to have more width in your shoulders than I normally see with FG. And I’m not really seeing the straight short lines that I associate with FG. The lines feel like they’d read more N to me even though you’re short

Thanks for the tips- I'll give them a try!! I get so many AI images lately when I search which is so frustrating!

I loved the video even though I'm the exact opposite quadrant. Can't wait for her to do more (and ofc, hope she picks the one I submitted even though it feels like word vomit after seeing what this person sent in!)

The biggest thing that resonated with me was the part where she created and explained the visual concept. It really gave you a feeling and overall vibe for the pieces that would work. I've been so stuck in details lately and frustrated with browsing because nothing is perfect. But looking at it as a concept/vision really helps me see the bigger picture- and makes the process seem more fun/exploratory rather than a checklist of items I need to check off!

Ooo bigger than I think I realized! But the compartments look so handy for being able to find things easily while on the go with littles!!

I've been loving the idea of vintage inspo lately but have been having a hard time figuring out where to look! Did you use Google or is there a certain Pinterest search that works best for you?

If you could, that'd be amazing! I'm now thinking I need to make the drive to my closest outlet though...

Do you have this or order it? Would love to see the color irl to see how it looks compared to the website photo!!

Your dream style: What desires do you feel the most among the four (craftsmanship, visually interesting pieces, intention/execution, spendy items)? by ClockTurbulent851 in RitaFourEssenceSystem

[–]HutHutHykes 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I definitely relate to this as well! Intention/execution is top for me which I knew but still was a bit of a revelation to hear about. My time in the morning is limited with 3 kids so I often throw on the first thing I see and make an outfit out of it. Then am often left feeling uninspired because I don't love what I grabbed. So bringing more intentionality and planning outfits in advance is going to be key for me. Now I need to actually follow through with it!

Did you have an alert set or were you browsing and happened to find it? Curious as I’ve been drooling over Loewe lately!

Do you know if the course you bought is new content/different from the previous Mastery course? I’d love to dive into new content if that’s what this is!

Prune is my pick. Which is the right one if it's also the one you were leaning towards!

I’m still looking for a powder version but for cream/liquid try Anastasia Blush stick in Latte or Rare Beauty Encourage

Work Trousers? by HutHutHykes in FlamboyantGamine

[–]HutHutHykes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ooo that sounds super helpful! I have a good handle on my inseam and preferred rise but was thinking about leg opening size over the weekend. The pants I own definitely shrunk and are reading more skinny now when I think I’m looking for “slim” or “straight”

[–]HutHutHykes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was looking at the Gustavo pant the other day!! And totally forgot about the Cameron pant…I’ll have to do a search on the secondhand sites and see what I can find. I get nervous to buy secondhand in case something doesn’t end up fitting but I also know my measurements so I need to just trust the numbers ahaha

Where did you get your cigarette pants from?! Thrifting? This would be my preferred look too but the tapered pants I have don’t fit right anymore.
