Try before you buy
Was a GYPO user years ago and loved it!! Re stumbled upon it and bought the lifetime subscription without hesitation. Should have hesitated. I find the outfits to be extremely repetitive and uninspiring. My own fault for jumping in so quickly.
App not as helpful as it used to be
I really liked this app when I first got it, but now I find that the latest featured outfits are bland and don’t appeal to me at all. ( Today’s outfit is top to bottom plain beige- boring! To me l,anyway).
Also, you used to be able to see what the outfit was supposed to look like when it was styled the way the app designers had in mind. Now, the app only shows you pictures of the pieces of the outfit. To see how it is supposed to look on, you look at pictures of “ how others styled it.” ( Meaning other app users). Sorry, but many of the app users have less of a sense of style than I do and they put together the outfits in a way that is not inspiring.. Some of them choose different pieces altogether that don’t have anything to do with the featured outfit. I like to look at how a model with a sense of style puts together the outfit. ( Do they tuck in the blouse or not? What type of “bottoms” do they choose? Do they button the cardigan or not, and if so, how? )Then I can choose how closely I want to copy their style ( or not).
Kind of like when you purchase a cookbook with pictures of how the finished dish is supposed to look, you want to see a picture of an appealing, well -plated dish- not a dish that looks burnt or undercooked or like a plate of spaghetti when it’s supposed to be an omelette.
Anyway I love the concept of this app, and the quality used to be better. Hopefully it will improve soon, but in the meantime I will be looking elsewhere for an outfits app with more fashion guidance and more outfits that inspire me.

Scam
This app allows a 7 day “free trial” and then proceeded to charge me $29 for 2 days use. I tried it for 2 days and didn’t find it useful as it didn’t give me suggestions based on my wardrobe or lifestyle so I canceled but it’s still trying to charge me for a months use. Seems very scammy to me and I’ve alerted Apple and will report to my credit card company if Apples not able to fix it. Contacted the company and they were of no use AGAIN.

Great concept and very good execution so far!
This app is ideal for those of us with a closet full of good intentions. You buy what you like, what fits, what looks good and what’s comfortable. Then you have no idea how to style any of it. You spend mornings staring at racks with that deer in headlights expression, am I right??!!
Outfit Formulas helps you sort it all out, one day and one outfit at a time. The app is pretty simple, very flexible and allows you enough creative freedom while keeping you focused and eliminating dressing paralysis. By providing you each day with a structured formula, using wardrobe basics you probably already have, Outfit Formulas eliminates dress stress, and actually makes choosing what to wear fun! In the 8 months I’ve been using the app I have worn so many pieces I hadn’t worn in years. Also, I have identified what I will never wear again because I’ve established a personal style and that’s made parting with things quite easy.
I think with most apps, and this one is no different, there’s always some room for improvement. Nonetheless, for me, this is a game changer. I now have a closet filled with outfits that bring me joy instead of stress. And I’ve enjoyed seeing a community of women who have completely changed their attitude about dressing. It’s actually fun! You should try it!

Got my mojo back
I was feeling frumpy and old. I have gained weight and I am just uncomfortable and I needed to feel better fast. Of helped. Of course I am able to put outfits together on my own, but this app shows me how to actually wear the clothes I own in different ways. I love using the app to create the outfit of the day. It’s really fun to see my own pieces styled. Of helps me to love my wardrobe and keeps me from overbuying.
