Wow- what great stories! Thanks for starting this, Sara.

I came to YLF because of my sister (April), started posting because of my sister, and have a new sense of what I'm doing style-wise because of my sister and YLF.

Pre-YLF, I had some idea of what I liked, but no idea how to pull it together well. It's amazing that with just a little bit of reading, some adjustment, and a few key pieces, one's entire wardrobe can transform. I feel so much better about myself and what I have been wearing over the past few weeks than I ever have. Once you take the plunge and try something new, it's truly amazing what transpires.

I went to a baseball game the other night and *somehow* pulled together a fun outfit that made me feel good (instead of dressed for a ball game)...usually it would have been jeans, t-shirt, and sneakers. A good pair of jeans, a nice top, and colorful cropped blazer with necklace, plus my swans made all the difference. Crazy how simple it is once you find your groove.

And I'm happy to report that, thanks to a surprise package from April, I now have two pairs of PPL pants. <BIG grin>

Woo hoo -- so glad the pants fit! (Tall girls take note: these were regular pants from Esprit, where the inseams are a generous 33" and 34".)

May we see photos?
