Even more importantly you are really enjoying your closet! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/rambling-post-of-gratitude-and-cheer#post-479573 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 19:44:20 +0000 Sylvie 479573@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a kind and thoughtful post. Angie puts so much hard work into this forum - I know she will appreciate your kind words.</p> <p>I remember when Angie suggested someone on the forum change their base layer to avoid grinning and all of a sudden, it was magic, the top looked amazing! That's when I realized her genius.</p> <p>Angie, please come visit the SF bay area. It's a beautiful spot for a vacation. We're envious of the Pacific NW and NYC ladies who've had the chance to meet you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/rambling-post-of-gratitude-and-cheer#post-479564 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 19:38:34 +0000 rae 479564@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well said, Mochi! I for one am both happy and sad that Angie is not in LA. On the one hand, it would be great to see her at all the LA meetups... but on the other hand, I feel like all the stylists in LA have been indoctrinated into one very particular style. Angie is very unique in her advocation of true personal style! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/rambling-post-of-gratitude-and-cheer#post-479536 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 19:12:25 +0000 mamaKate 479536@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hear, hear!!! I am still in the shopping spree stage and am so grateful for the input from all, but most especially fact that Angie has created a supportive community. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/rambling-post-of-gratitude-and-cheer#post-479522 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 18:56:27 +0000 Sveta 479522@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I suspect all of us as forum newcomers go through this exuberant stage - and grand shopping spree too. I know I did!<br /> I sure hope Angie does see this post because it will make her day! (this is my way of saying "Nice post, Mocki </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/rambling-post-of-gratitude-and-cheer#post-479516 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 18:50:47 +0000 velvetychocolate 479516@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great post, and I feel exactly the same way. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/rambling-post-of-gratitude-and-cheer#post-479513 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 18:47:41 +0000 Claudia 479513@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely thoughts and post, Mochi.

I'm so glad you're enjoying the YLF experience and yes, isn't that Angie wonderful? I'd love to see what accessories and shoes she'd choose to go with that potato sack!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/rambling-post-of-gratitude-and-cheer#post-479500 Fri, 02 Dec 2011 18:33:15 +0000 Mochi 479500@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi. I am drive-by posting to say that I've been shopping like mad all of a sudden these past two weeks or so (getting some great deals--don't worry, I'm totally financially solvent), bit by bit picking up staples for my wardrobe, and it's been awesome. Now I am pulling outfits out of my closet! Me! Like I can go out and know that I look nice! Susannah and Trinny were right--clothes can change your life. </p> <p>And I always loved clothes, but at the same time felt like it was a world that wouldn't accept me somehow...like I wasn't good enough or something...and I felt also that the whole thing was too girly (in general, I don't consider myself a girly-girl at all). But I am having so much fun just participating and also reading everyone's posts. It's like accepting more of my feminine side. I hope to meet up with some of you in real life someday!</p> <p>Also...just wanted to say after being here for a few weeks, reading the blog and forum...that Angie is truly a genius at what she does. She is the Picasso of clothes. I am not saying this lightly. If she were consulting with me and told me to try on a potato sack, I would do it without hesitation. I am almost surprised she's not out in L.A. or Hollywood working as a personal shopper to celebrities...but we're extremely lucky that we get to receive her generous brilliance here. </p> <p>(And I hope she doesn't read this...she might think I'm insane and kick me off the forum! Sorry, I just get so exuberant, ya know...)</p> <p>Well, I'd better go back to real life...just wanted to get that out there. Have a great weekend, everyone! </p>
