Even without having really begun to get involved here, I realized this morning how thrilled I am to have YLF as a resource. I'm so happy to have found a community of people who will actually CARE about the small details I fiddle with on a daily basis, like which shoe to wear with an outfit, whether the silhouette is right, how things might be improved. And you do it in a very constructive, supportive way. I'm amazed every day at what a terrifically positive approach everyone takes. I've enjoyed seeing the purchases people have made, and the way you've styled them, and reading the feedback from others. THANK YOU to all of you for being here!

As someone who's been involved in building an online community, I know the amount of time and effort that goes into it, and how much behind-the-scenes things go on before the community reaches that tipping point and takes on a life of its own. Angie, you deserve MAJOR KUDOS for setting the tone with your personality and your unique vision and approach as a stylist.

This morning I went around my house trying to figure out the best way to take photos - I only have one full-length mirror, and it's crappy - and I think I've come up with a passable solution, so will be posting pics soon.

I'm looking forward to getting to know you all.
