Second attempt:
I need some fashion advice. I recently bought this skirt, and I need a top to go with it. Any suggestions? This is a detailed view of the pattern.
Don't belong. Dangerous, like you. Can't be controlled. Can't be trusted. Everyone could just go on without me and not have to worry. People could be what they wanted to be. Could be with the people they wanted. Live simple. No secrets.

sj, the Yahoo site is claiming there's an error.
Yay, Nora! What a great trip to look forward to.

Lucky you, Nora! I have a friend currently living in England and I'd give anything to be able to visit. Alas, funding is slim. Maybe in a few years.
Yeah, the flight cost is pretty discouraging, then add the hotel in... (we'll be staying at a hotel in London, but not the 2 nights at his mom's). Eek! But, at this point, with the state of his mom's health, it's not much of an option... and the ROI of her not being alone on Xmas is pretty enormous.
We'll spin the numbers somehow.
I've booked the flight, and the hotel near Heathrow for the night before we fly home. Waiting on hearing from Tom's dad before we book in his neighborhood. Will hopefully find someplace nice in Edinburgh for not too much for some non-parent downtime in between London and St. Andrews. Or suck it up and stay with MIL an extra night. See what the numbers say... Hey, maybe one of us will get a huge raise before the end of the year!!!
I'm psyched to be in London at Christmas though- just like in Dr. Who! hopefully there will be no alien invasion though.

All the changes to Yahoo photo confused me so much that I forgot to make the album public. Can you see if it works now?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Nora, bring lots and lots of sweaters.

yeah, last time I was there, it was March and really cold. I assume it will be more so in December. It gets so raw, especially in St. Andrew's, because it is right on the sea.

The up-close shot is visible, but the other one isn't, sj.
Gorgeous pattern! And I adore that bottle green color. Based on the up-close shot, I'd say you'd need either a purple top that matched the embroidery or a cream-colored shirt.

Yay, Nora!
sj, I totally agree with AmyLiz.

The embroidery is more pink than it looks in the picture. I think it is going to be a hard color to match. Cream washes me out, so I try to avoid it.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Gorgeous pattern. I am going to pretend that the embroidery is more the purple though cause I am stubborn like that.
