If I may make a suggestion regarding the issue of highlighting a particular piece in an outfit... if you desaturate the rest of the image from each piece it would stand out more, like this:
especially in photos with colorful/busy backgrounds like the one above.
I wasnt able to figure out immediately that there was an option of seeing more than one item per photo. It may be because the tags are located above the photo separate from the main body of text. Maybe try putting it below the analysis? Also I think it will look better if content was in the center of the page, looks more balanced.

The point is to do close readings on fashion images and make that information as useful and simple to people as possible. I feel like there's too many images floating around there on tumblr etc. that people glance at and think, oh, that looks good, but then don't take the time to look at everything super closely and really understand the components of a fit. It's just kind of mindless clothes porn that doesn't result in dressing better or improving understanding of clothes (see: )

Last time people said that the outlines were too thick and they couldn't see the clothes underneath. I agree... how's this? What can I add to this that would make you really want to go on it and use it consistently? What bothers you or surprises you in a bad way when you use the site as it is?
I know it could be prettier, and it will be eventually, so I'd appreciate suggestions other than 'make it look cleaner'. Right now it seems like I'm headed towards making a blog of this type of thing but it definitely doesn't necessarily have to be that way. Ideally (as was suggested last time I asked) I'd want to have other people able to submit their own analyses since obviously I'm going to miss stuff.
