Okay so my husband & I where in the mall finishing up some last minute shopping a couple of days before Christmas & I felt like I needed a new shirt so When we went to leave goodys a shirt caught my eye. It was black with sequins on the bust area. I lookED & of course they only had an XL & since my bras have seem to gotten a little loose I figured it might work & if not I would just return it after Christmas because with my husband with me I was sure not going to try it on-we were both tired-so we checked out and I got into the car and was looking at the receipt on the way home and noticed it was A FLIPPIN' JUNIORS SIZE NOT A WOMENS!! I was very upset to say the least!! so I got home& threw it across and basket of clothes that need to be folded and forgot about it well I tried it on because my husband said you never know and I wanted to prove him wrong and Ill be darn it if didnt fit!! YES IT FIT!!! I did a little dance and my husband laughed and me and we headed to his Grandmothers for Christmas on Christmas eve so I was sitting in her living room and she said "Summer have you lost weight because you look smaller since they last time I saw you" I about fell of the couch I was so happy!!! So needless to say I HAD A GREAT CHRISTMAS!!!!

  • That is awesome!!! Feels great!!!

    I just recently bought some juniors XL tops too and I was surprised that they fit ...... probably could even have gone with the Large! And it is SO nice, because they have such cuter selection for the *younger* gals!!!
