Woohoo ... my Camelbak came in today and I ordered a pstyle today. Got all my major purchases done, now I just have finish those rootus and get all the little stuff that makes a big difference!
Totally just got my bra measurement done and I have been WAY off. 36DD and I had been wearing a 38D. I got myself measured because I have lost weight, so I was worried that my cup size had gone down. In a way, I went up!

Good Gravy, woman! Share a little!
Every woman in my family has ginourmous tatas (my aunt is an F!) except for me. I'm taller than everyone and have smaller boobs - I have no clue how that happened.
In clothing news, I have bought one dress for Roo. One.
...and spent waaaay too much on a bathing suit. Why are the nice ones so freaking expensive?
But I've got to stop justifying everything as "being for the wedding," my credit card is sizzling.
Hey girlies...has anyone wore flip flops for a whole day? If so, how'd your feet feel that night?
I live in my Rainbows and never have a problem, but I wear them all the time while not at Roo. I'd make sure to bring some backup shoes with support, JIC.

I wore tevas last year the kind with the crisscross pattern on the top. They were very comfy. At the end of the day my calves hurt quit a bit but I think that was more from standing on tip toe to see over the tall dudes so much. When i was in the sand or a clear area I could just kick them off and do some stretches. I'll be bringing them again this year.
I am the same as Dani. I wear flip flops the whole time at Roo and have never had a problem, but I also wear flip flops and related sandals almost exclusively on a day to day basis. I even wear flips to hike!

i always have to interject this but......i also bring an old pair of black pumps to roo. i find that after a day of flips my feeet LOVE those old beat up pumps. it stretches my feet out and rests my instep somehow. im one of those who wishes i had the balls to wear my old worn out pumps to dance in at roo cause..honest folks....they are the most comfy for my feet over time. if you see someone in a heel i could be because of comfort. i havent heeled around roo ever. im too shy but i do heel around camp and it feels amazing. flat shoes really kill me over the four or five days at roo

it wasn't the flip flops that killed my feet but walking in them on the rocks on the path up was terrible. i found my "fit flops" more comfortable since they have a thicker sole.
Bought these in the store today in the mini floral design. These are exactly like what I wore exclusively last year--nice, solid but comfy sole, non-blister-causing fabric upper. And only 15 bucks! Big box store delivers yet again, much to my chagrin.
I did Master Cleanse for a month before hitting Beale Street Music Festival a couple of weeks ago. I felt and looked awesome and lost a lot of weight. While in Memphis I had lots of their famous BBQ and tons of beer. I feel soooo bloated. All of the cute stuff that I bought for Beale Street and Bonnaroo are not going to fit if I continue on the binge. I bought some cute athletic shorts from the Nike store, but I don't want to be jigglin' all weekend! I got an awesome dress from Ross for 6 bucks. I wore it to the Greek restaurant by my house and got a free piece of baklava! haha

What all the other ladies said
I word some mush flops from American Eagle my first roo, and I was good the whole time. Last year and the year before I wore Sanuk yoga mat flops and I was great. Brought 2 pair, and just switched them out every day.

Definitely invest in flip flops other than Old Navy ones... Last year was my first Roo and I wore them all weekend and they tore my feet up. Swollen and huge blisters = painful time walking a few miles a day. This year I'm bringing Tevas, my old New Balances, and some rain boots just in case.
AHG! I can't believe I forgot to mention this - Yesterday I was doing some wally world shopping, and I kind of quickly scanned the bathing suits/OPI/board shorts section. They had a whole rack of those "cheer" type shorts - you know cotton with a titch of spandex, and the fold over waistband for $5 each. Solids and Prints. Then I scanned under that, and they had black and gray ones, that were a smidgen shorter, with a non-rollover waistband - for only $3.97. I decided for $4 I could get them, try them on at home and decide if they'd make the grade for under RooTus. ....... SCORE. Y'all, they're cotton (yay for breathability), they're cheap (yay for my wallet), and they show off my tookus just perfectly. ;D Im gonna go back when I have some good time to try on and get some more. FOUR DOLLARS.

That's exactly what I'm bringing! my black criss-cross Teva's, my old New Balance 442's which are the most comfortable shoes ever, and some rain boots.

Rain boots are so hot to wear, even if it is raining. My crocs stay on my feet well so I don't think they'll get sucked off if there's mud. My feet are nasty all weekend anyway, mud won't hurt them.

I'm doing a gnc cleanse right now...wanna take a couple cm from the tummy area. Wish me luck haha
Thought I'd share the couple of dresses I've picked up for Roo. Both on Ebay, total under $50 for the two of them.
So this one's not the most beautiful thing on a hanger but I know that it's going to be comfortable in the heat. I've found rayon is my friend on the farm.
This one looks great and will be a great way to show off my new tattoo. I've just got to bathe in sunscreen so I don't get roasted.
I'm a plus size gal so finding deals is hard as hell. They'll both look particularly stylish with my wrist tu as well

I am also a big fan of Rayon on the farm:) The bottom dress is soooo cute!!!
My first year I took all kinds of shoes because I knew my tootsies needed to be comfortable... I took a few different pairs of flip flops, my sanuks, actual athletic shoes, birkenstocks -- I like OPTIONS. LOL. Anyway, I ended up wearing the $7 "last minute" Academy flip flops... total life savers.
Last year I ended up getting a pair of Reef's (with the same kind of squishy footbed and soft top part) and couldn't have been more happy. Of course, at the end of the night my feet hurt... but that's what happens when you're walking millions of miles a day. But as far as blisters or rubbed raw spots... I had ZERO.

Which one? I've never done a cleanse that I bought at the store. I've only done Master Cleanse. I lost 60lbs on it a few years ago and kept a majority of it off. My dad turned me onto it. I'm getting back on the MC wagon on Monday...along with squats and lunges! Good luck with your cleanse, Lily!
Just a reminder: everyone should bring something to cover up with in case they get burned. I bring a lightweight cotton cardigan and last year, it was a life-saver since my shoulders got burned on Friday. I draped it over my shoulders, under my backpack straps.
