You have to live for the now. Treat yourself to TX weather items if they tickle your fancy. Life is too short. </p> <p>You will LOVE the PNW weather. Boots and toppers year round. Although you may miss your sandals and curse the rain. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-with-life-in-transition#post-961172 Thu, 20 Jun 2013 23:12:52 +0000 Rambling Ann 961172@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What rachylou said, and start collecting chiles and recipes because north of Santa Fe you are on your own as far as Tex-Mex. Utah has soCal style Mexican, no fire at all, unless you eat from the taco trucks. The only thing I miss about Houston is the food scene. Portland has one, but salmon tacos with blackberry salsa&nbsp;<i></i>only gets you so far.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-with-life-in-transition#post-961171 Thu, 20 Jun 2013 23:11:34 +0000 annagybe 961171@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If it's truly the Oregon coast and not Portland, don't buy anything. The coast is SUPER casual. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-with-life-in-transition#post-961154 Thu, 20 Jun 2013 22:41:02 +0000 rachylou 961154@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok, what I think you could do is check out the weather patterns for a whole year in Oregon, and fashion bloggers in Oregon and stuff, and then maybe you could start up your purge again and put together a little starter capsule for Oregon. </p> <p>It would be a super fun project in my book anyways... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-with-life-in-transition#post-961148 Thu, 20 Jun 2013 22:36:14 +0000 Rambling Ann 961148@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Money is way easier to move than stuff.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-with-life-in-transition#post-961146 Thu, 20 Jun 2013 22:34:36 +0000 Caro in Oz 961146@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Kristin said &amp; bags :)&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-with-life-in-transition#post-961137 Thu, 20 Jun 2013 22:13:38 +0000 Kristin SF 961137@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shoes and accessories.

Period. 961136@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What about focusing on things that you can layer? I don't wear tanks or sleeveless tops&nbsp;a lot on their own, but I wear them a lot for layering. &nbsp;They help with the "warm outside, air conditioned inside" problem, although I suspect you have a much more significant differential in TX than here in OR! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-with-life-in-transition#post-961125 Thu, 20 Jun 2013 21:18:19 +0000 ironkurtin 961125@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My family is hoping to make a big move in the next year (Texas to Oregon coast).&nbsp; So I don't want to buy stuff for HERE - I am so sick of buying for broiling summers!&nbsp; But I can't really buy stuff for THERE because, well, I'm not THERE yet.&nbsp; Worse, I am frozen in purging, because what I barely wear HERE might be perfect for THERE.&nbsp; (Those boots and coats I don't wear?&nbsp; Perfect for rainy days!)</p> <p>I think I need to just stop buying, period, unless all of my underwear suddenly goes on strike.&nbsp; Then I can splurge on what I need when I get THERE.&nbsp; But I do love to buy things...</p>
