Hi, just joined today after reading the blog for a long time. I'm a frustrated 8-shape westerner living in a small town in China where I feel hopelessly out of style, surrounded by tiny locals wearing the latest in Asian fashion. I need help in retraining my "eye" for appropriate fashion for western bodies! So glad to have joined this community.

I love this site. It's full of useful tips and advice.

Hi, I have lurked around the YLF site for ages, but just formally joined. I love this site - I get so much useful, practical information and ideas. I am 60, live in New Zealand, and LOVE sewing clothes. Thank Angie and everyone else involved in YLF - great community, for women of all ages, shapes and sizes.

I'm glad to be here, ready to learn, and looking forward to being able to see the pictures everyone is talking about!

Thanks Angie for creating this site and forum. I'm getting a lot of ideas.

I've been following Angie's blog for a few years now and finally joining in. Ready to upgrade my wardrobe a bit as in the past few years I've come to have a closet of mostly workout wear, fleece and technical fabrics after moving to the mountains. Ready to look more put together rather than ready for a day on the mountains, when the occasion calls for it!

I joined because I've heard a lot about this site from a parenting board I'm on. Thanks for creating this great resource!

Happy to be here, can't wait to start my style journey!

I just joined on the recommendation of a post on the Stitcher's Guild Sewing Forum. I've been following your blog for ages. I'm looking forward to full member status so I can see the photos.

Just joined! I'm enjoying reading the threads and look forward to being able to see pictures too!

I just joined. I have been following the forum for a while, and decided there might be room for a middle-aged petite woman who wants to look stylish but can't seem to achieve it without help.

Hello everyone I have just discovered your site via a link from Not Dressed As Lamb and can't tell you how impressed I am! I am a petite 63 year old from Southport in the UK. I have always loved fashion and am looking forward to finding some inspiration from your site. Must say I thought that Karen looked amazing! I shall be checking in daily from now on see you all soon!

So happy to be here. Is there a link to the forum rules around here somewhere? I can't seem to find one.

Hi,

I've been lurking on and off for quite some time, but I've finally decided to sign up. I am the most "fashion challenged" person that I know :(. I tend to wear the same thing most days, jeans and plain long sleeved shirt in the winter, denim capris and plain short sleeve shirt in the summer. I'm hoping to find some serious fashion inspiration here!

Hello! I am really enjoying all these interesting articles on here. I have been searching all over the web for a place where I can communicate with other people about fashion, body shapes, opinions, etc... So glad I came across this website!

Hi, I love this site, thank you for all the effort.

I'm a new member and glad to be here! Love your blog.

What a great resource! I can't wait to see all these is to see. Thanks for setting this up!

Hi guys!!!
It's been a long while (years) since Ive been active in the community but I'd love to rejoin you all. I've been lurking off and on now and would like to be active again.

So many things have changed. Primarily, I'm a full time mom on the go now. I've got a slightly different body shape and I'm trying to realign my closet with current fashion.

I'll see you guys in the forums. Guess Im the new kid on the block again.
