I'll play. I never did an official "hey there, board" post.
1. How long have you been posting (or lurking?) I found out about the migration in August and started posting right away, but don't get a chance to post every day. I first went on TK in '06ish, went to TN, and then stopped posting when I got tired of how badly the search functions and board format in general sucked. I never really lurk - it's too hard not to participate
2. 3 fav S&B places to shop Easily 95% of my S&B shopping is done online. - Shopbop - Nordstrom - NM
3. 3 fav S&B items you own - CL VPs - My handbags. Can't single one out because the others would get jealous . Well, I can say that my Longchamp Le Pliage has gotten a ton of use since I've been travelling so much lately. - Since it's winter, coats come to mind. I love my Mackage black wool and leather coat.
4. Where do you live? In the middle
