How exciting that you are moving! I hear Austin is a really cool town, so you are right to be excited.</p> <p>I just pierced my earlobes, so I've been doing a TON of research because that is just how I am. Have you ever heard of emu oil? It's not vegetarian friendly, but I guess it's safe for piercings and helps keep them from drying out with all the salt bathing you have to do. I just ordered a bottle to try, so if you're interested I'll let you know how it goes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/old-member-back-for-some-style-evolution#post-811407 Tue, 08 Jan 2013 03:03:35 +0000 Kari 811407@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi, Tricia - welcome back, and congratulations on all of the new, exciting changes ahead in your life! </p> <p>I totally hear you on piercing problems. I only have pierced ears but the piercings failed TWICE before I realized I had a nickel allergy; even with hypo-allergenic metals, I still sometimes get a bit of a reaction. Now I pretty much only wear earrings if they are coated with neosporin before I put them in. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/old-member-back-for-some-style-evolution#post-811278 Tue, 08 Jan 2013 01:12:53 +0000 Janet 811278@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome back! I'm not far from you (I live in MD) but Austin is a very cool town (my husband is from TX). I think I came on board here after you took absence, so I look forward to seeing more of your style! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/old-member-back-for-some-style-evolution#post-811142 Mon, 07 Jan 2013 22:15:41 +0000 Debora 811142@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Tricia and welcome back! I remember you well and your evolving love of vintage fashion. It is really so nice to see you again.

Oh well.

So glad you are back! I feel a bond because we joined around the same time... I've evolved in a different direction (see the RATE/Urban Warrior Princess threads if interested), but always loved your retro style and am glad to see you are still rocking it (literally!). Can't wait to see some of your collection and participate in your continuing evolution. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/old-member-back-for-some-style-evolution#post-811043 Mon, 07 Jan 2013 20:14:56 +0000 nicoleb 811043@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome back!

I look forward to seeing you on the forum. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/old-member-back-for-some-style-evolution#post-807666 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 15:11:22 +0000 Susie 807666@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello! I've only been here a few months but I am eager to see your style and to read about the changes you are contemplating. </p> <p>DC to Austin is a big move! With your interest in music, Austin should be a great fit for you. Several years ago we moved from York, PA to Little Rock so I can relate to making a big change! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/old-member-back-for-some-style-evolution#post-807661 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 15:07:11 +0000 cheryl 807661@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome back! Sounds like you have had an exciting year with more to come! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/old-member-back-for-some-style-evolution#post-807608 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 13:51:30 +0000 Tricia 807608@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi everyone - I have to look around the forum some more, so I don't know if anyone here now remembers me, but I was a regular poster about a year or 18 months ago. YLF really helped me find my style again after a few years of constant pregnancy and nursing, and that style evolution really kicked off a huge overall evolution for me!</p> <p>For those of you who were around back then, here's a quick update:</p> <p>- I got really into collecting and wearing vintage fashion</p> <p>- I started singing with a band! After years of singing in choirs and wishing I had the nerve to do more, I ended up singing with a friend's classic rock band for 6 months and found I was much better than I ever thought. It was a huge, HUGE confidence booster and I made a ton of new friends. I'm now singing in a new band featuring my husband on bass - it's sort of an alt-country/rockabilly sound (all covers).</p> <p>- I pierced my nose and loved it, but had a few problems with the piercing and had to take it out. I'm waiting a little while but planning to do it again.</p> <p>- My husband and I just decided that he would accept a job offer in Austin, Texas (we live outside D.C. right now). We'll be moving in late March, provided everything goes well. I'm nervous but really, really excited.</p> <p>I have some questions about some style changes I want to make in the new year, but I'm going to poke around and see what's going on here first. Hi to all the newcomers and to my old YLF friends! </p>
