Zowie!! You look fab in a major way! Love the booties!

Holy cow, what an entrance !

I love tissue Ts and JJill. And those boots are really killer. WELCOME !

Thanks to everyone who has commented - you're all so sweet and supportive. I started out clicking the appreciation button in response and then realized I wanted to click for everyone, which is probably not its function. So even if I didn't click your button, I DO appreciate your comments. It's a little nerve-racking putting oneself out there for comment. And special thanks to Angie for setting up this forum and taking the time to be so actively involved.

Modgrl - the lace top is made of cotton crochet string. For regular dirt/stains, I just pre-treat with Shout. To keep it white, apply lemon juice and sunshine, re-applying juice as needed to keep damp. I've heard vinegar might also work, but I've had success with lemon. I don't use bleach, as it tends to yellow cotton.

qfbrenda - yes, I do love bags and shoes. And I've been able to find great bags at my local Nordstrom Rack, but now they've down-sized that section and I'm so sad! (But also I'm running out of storage room, so it's probably a good thing.) Hi back to a homeschooler (wave).

Thanks everybody. I feel really welcome.
