I'd heard of it, but thought it was DowntoWn Abbey, and from that thought it was a soap opera. When I saw your user name spelling, I looked it up and learned that the show might be something like Matador, which I enjoyed.<br /> <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matador_(TV_series)" rel="nofollow">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matador_(TV_series)</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-reader-from-macedonia/page/2#post-1059997 Tue, 22 Oct 2013 16:55:22 +0000 fieldmouse 1059997@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi, and welcome! I'm from a small European country too (Естонија) Your English is really good, actually, definitely no need to apologise for it!<br />&nbsp;I can relate to your situation, I was unemployed back when I found YLF, so without much money for clothes as well. I do have a decent job and income now, but I still prefer to have fewer clothes that I love and wear all the time.</p> <p>Would learning to sew some of your clothes yourself be an option? I've tried to do that myself, but I'm pretty bad, nay, horrible at it And if fabric is expensive, then this might not even be cost-effective anyway. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-reader-from-macedonia/page/2#post-1059583 Tue, 22 Oct 2013 09:02:41 +0000 DowntonAbbey 1059583@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, thank you Lyn67, Dobar den to you too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-reader-from-macedonia/page/2#post-1059580 Tue, 22 Oct 2013 08:55:48 +0000 lyn67 1059580@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>DobreDan and welcome to YLF, Bibi!

It's always nice when we get new members from different countries. Being interested in fashion, in my books, is not just about shopping or creating outfits; I know that I was originally drawn to the site just because I like talking about fashion and clothes with others. But, I will admit that hanging around with this fashionable crowd has definitely improved my overall look over the past few years. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-reader-from-macedonia/page/2#post-1059118 Mon, 21 Oct 2013 22:20:28 +0000 Gracie 1059118@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome from another newcomer, Bibi! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-reader-from-macedonia#post-1059074 Mon, 21 Oct 2013 21:50:53 +0000 NDMom 1059074@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome, Bibi! I, too, am a SAHM for the most part. Also, wanted to share with you that we adopted our youngest of five children from Serbia in 2011. (His name is Nole'/Novak and he happens to have Down syndrome.). He was from the southern part of the country....we LOVED it there, especially the people and food!</p> <p>Anyways, zdravo! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-reader-from-macedonia#post-1058748 Mon, 21 Oct 2013 17:50:29 +0000 Susie 1058748@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome, Bibi!

Are you of slavic decent?</p> <p>Well I thought that nothing from this forum would surprise me because I found long ago that you are most heartfelt,welcoming and generous group of people that I have ever met(I feel that I know all of you).<br />Thank you Aquamarine,Suz and Alasse.<br />Ornella you understand me, food and bills go up to 90% of our budget and there is not much left for other stuff.And yes I get pleasures of little things.And purple.It is my favorite colour and it always makes me happy.</p> <p>ETA:Thank you Jeanie.We cross-posted.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-reader-from-macedonia#post-1058448 Mon, 21 Oct 2013 13:39:19 +0000 Jeanie 1058448@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello Bibi and welcome! &nbsp;I am starting over with a very limited wardrobe and I have found YLF so helpful in saving me from bad buying decisions. &nbsp;Look forward to hearing more from you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-reader-from-macedonia#post-1058433 Mon, 21 Oct 2013 13:25:52 +0000 Ornella 1058433@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bibi, dobredojdovte vo YLF ;-)</p> <p>Now that you've joined&nbsp;I hope you'll benefit even more from the wisdom, advice and&nbsp;friendship here. One of my favourite things about YLF is convincing me that there is no limits in terms of budget, body type, age or lifestyle that can prevent a person from looking stylish and feeling good about themselves.</p> <p>Growing up, my family had limited budget, life necessities came first, then everything else,&nbsp;but I remember my mum always being elegant. She actually had very little wardrobe. But it was good things and she rather bought quality clothing rarely than half-good choices.&nbsp;</p> <p>I hope you'll find new joy within your wardrobe&nbsp;now that you'll be part of YLF in a new way. Often it's little things and the way we see the clothes and feel about ourselves that make all the difference.</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-reader-from-macedonia#post-1058421 Mon, 21 Oct 2013 13:12:33 +0000 Alassë 1058421@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-reader-from-macedonia#post-1058381 Mon, 21 Oct 2013 12:14:16 +0000 Suz 1058381@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome! if there is one thing i love most of all about YLF it's the international character of the group! You are in great company here and it's great to see you hop aboard!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-reader-from-macedonia#post-1058377 Mon, 21 Oct 2013 12:10:55 +0000 Aquamarine 1058377@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome from one newbie to another. A small, simple wardrobe can force you to be more creative. There are a lot of threads on the forum addressing this topic. I am always inspired by the women here who purposely streamline their wardrobes and yet put together seemingly endless outfits. Our lives are so cluttered and hectic that too many choices in ANYTHING can be overwhelming, so take heart </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-reader-from-macedonia#post-1058358 Mon, 21 Oct 2013 11:49:59 +0000 DowntonAbbey 1058358@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you Lantana! I don't shop in trifting stores, there aren't many interesting things in them.I think here ends everything that hasn't been sold in Europe.<br />Thank you DianeG,Mona,Joy and Joyce B.<br />Yes Joy and DianeG insipation from this blog is endless.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-reader-from-macedonia#post-1058344 Mon, 21 Oct 2013 11:33:20 +0000 Joyce B 1058344@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome Bibi. Your English is great and there is no need to apologize for it.<br /> I am new to the forum, too.<br /> It is much harder to make a shopping decision when you know it is a final one. I think we are spoiled (thankfully) in the US that we can return or exchange our purchases.<br /> Enjoy the forum. </p>
