Exciting times. You have a wonderful attitude and your new neighbors must be thrilled to have you nearby. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/flip-flops-and-falsies#post-1511245 Fri, 26 Jun 2015 03:20:44 +0000 Beth Ann 1511245@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Interesting question, Runcarla!&nbsp; Firstly, I'm going to try not to buy too much in the next couple of month.&nbsp; Of course, moving chews up a lot of money, but I also am redefining myself professionally.&nbsp;&nbsp; What kind of work will I do?&nbsp; How much of my week will be spent teaching, parenting, performing?&nbsp; </p> <p>I'm finding myself more particular about flattering color and proportion.&nbsp; I'm a bit less confident in my new surroundings, which is hardly surprising, and I feel a need to look my best, without overdressing.&nbsp; Fortunately, I have plenty to choose from at the moment, although there are some holes when autumn comes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/flip-flops-and-falsies#post-1511226 Fri, 26 Jun 2015 03:04:06 +0000 Carla 1511226@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So glad the move is working out for you!

Love seeing Indy through your eyes. </p> <p>I was channeling you earlier today. I was walking around my neighborhood when for NO apparent reason I started thinking about false eyelashes and that I should try some - then I saw your post! Funny! </p> <p>Keep the reports coming as you have time. And of course take a nap - well deserved I am sure. </p> <p>Ps share your NAS picks if you don't mind. You know we are twinsies in many ways </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/flip-flops-and-falsies#post-1511033 Thu, 25 Jun 2015 20:23:54 +0000 Janet 1511033@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Heh, Annapolis (MD) also goes by Naptown. Sounds like a good fresh start so far! Enjoy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/flip-flops-and-falsies#post-1510972 Thu, 25 Jun 2015 17:00:52 +0000 kkards 1510972@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>yes, its always interesting to see the differences between one part of the US and another. glad your move to over (even if the boxes aren't totally unpacked yet). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/flip-flops-and-falsies#post-1510968 Thu, 25 Jun 2015 16:56:36 +0000 Suz 1510968@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sounds fascinating! You are an anthropologist of fashion as well as a DIVA extraordinaire! Can't wait to see how it affects your own style.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/flip-flops-and-falsies#post-1510964 Thu, 25 Jun 2015 16:53:04 +0000 Sveta 1510964@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sounds like you are settling in nicely even if going through the hectic time. Interesting observations on your new neighborhood, thanks for sharing.<br />Yay for Noirdie's close by! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/flip-flops-and-falsies#post-1510955 Thu, 25 Jun 2015 16:29:21 +0000 deb 1510955@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sounds both exciting and a lot of work, with&nbsp;the boxes and all. You will fit in in no time I am sure. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/flip-flops-and-falsies#post-1510950 Thu, 25 Jun 2015 16:24:38 +0000 Beth Ann 1510950@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>.......... false eyelashes, that is!</p> <p>I'm moving in to my new (to me) home in my new city of Indianapolis.&nbsp; Yes, I've heard the name Naptown before, and, really, I could use a nap amidst all these boxes!</p> <p>As I've been out and about I've seen a gear-driven city.&nbsp; Triathletes are everywhere and, while my cyclist husband is lusting for hills to climb and finding none, there are cycling groups all over wearing lots of team colored spandex! This is an active town.&nbsp; Maybe naps are necessary with all the running and cycling in humid summer temps!</p> <p>Fashion wise, everything&nbsp; (alas) is very casual, but pretty upscale.&nbsp; Everyone is out an about in flip flops and little gear miniskirts.&nbsp; Lots of Lululemon, even more Athleta (which I like better), and Under-Armour as, well, <i>outer</i> wear.</p> <p>I was pleasantly surprised to move from a far-north suburb of Chicago to a closer in suburb in Indy and actually see more diversity in the community.&nbsp; My suburb, which national guides report as overwhelming white, is far more diverse than advertised.&nbsp; Since my own family is interracial, I'm very happy with this.&nbsp; Fashion wise, this alters the landscape, too!&nbsp; I have a fabulous neighbor across the street wearing all sorts of rich and sumptuous scarves as hijab, and my neighborhood Walmarts all have brow threading and lash salons.&nbsp; Really. In WalMart!&nbsp; The women behind the counter at my local McD's (Yes, I like the tea and the yogurt parfaits) are often wearing a full set of lashes and lots of jewelry with their uniforms.&nbsp; Gotta admire their effort to make their work look a bit more glam!</p> <p>Me?&nbsp; I'm keeping it simple as I get settled.&nbsp; My favorite uniform is a woven sleeveless top with drape, semi-tucked into belted crops or BFs.&nbsp; </p> <p>On the plus side, I'm actually closer to Nordies than ever -- just 6 miles.&nbsp; I think I might actually do the anniversary sale this year!</p>
