Thank you all for the warm welcome!
I hope that I can be helpful to others (even if I'm relatively fashion clueless). I'm glad to give my opinion, anyway.
And I really am looking forward to being able to post some pictures. I do need some style help, and it seems that I've come to the right place. My sweet husband was kind enough to take a couple of pictures for me today, so I'm saving them. Maybe I'll figure out Photobucket in the meantime...
One thing that really impresses me here is the positive and encouraging tone, while still giving constructive criticism. It's great to see a supportive atmosphere, in a time when often people use the anonymity of an internet forum as an opportunity to be nasty.
I"m glad to be here!
