For those of you who are looking for ideas on what to wear, this post is for you! What’s a Look Book?”Look book” is the term used to reference a collection of images that are assembled to help illustrate “looks” or “outfits”. It could be a clothing retailer or a fashion magazine, and in my case a blog!, who puts together a Look Book. The main objective is to help inspire the reader with complete looks from head to toe. It makes it easier for the viewer to picture the product when it is paired with other nicely coordinating pieces. Look Books are a fairly new trend but I believe they will become increasingly popular and important to the fashion retail industry. I haven’t had as much time as I’d like to photoshop together looks for you in my Luxe Mix Look Book so here’s some sites to refer to whenever you want some insta-inspiration on outfit ensembles. Note: I’ll keep adding to this as I find more. Please help us out by adding any you know of yourselves in the Comments section!Index of Look Books: Pink Mascara Look Book (Philip Lim, Diane Von Furstenberg, Ya Ya)http://www.pinkmascara.com/lookbook.html Shopbop Look Bookhttp://www.shopbop.com/lookbook/lookbook_main.jsp?FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=2534374302047459&lookFolderID=2534374302047459 BCBG Look Bookhttp://www.bcbg.com/spring2007/home.php Activeendevours Look Bookhttp://www.activeendeavors.com/lookbook/ Max Studio Look Bookhttp://www.maxstudio.com/website/lookbook/LookBook-1.htm Anthropologie Look Bookhttp://www.anthropologie.com/jump.jsp?itemID=2219&itemType=CATEGORY&all=1 Club Monaco Look Bookhttp://www.clubmonaco.com/032007/lookbook.asp Luxe Mix Look Book :)https://www.luxemix.com/luxe_mix/luxe_looks/index.html Karmaloop Look Book (Urban/Street Wear)http://www.karmaloop.com/lookbook/index.asp Free People Look Book (Urban/Bohemian)http://www.freepeople.com/index.cfm/fuseaction/products.browse/categoryID/f4fc7ff0-570a-4600-9c16-2e1b8bc0b63c RavinStyle Look Bookhttp://www.ravinstyle.com/shop/outfits.asp Banana Republic Look Bookhttp://www.bananarepublic.com/browse/category.do?cid=12025&pageID=-1 Some Look Books for Men too!
