Just as well I'm getting the NSV's, because the scales aren't moving fast!

I went shopping for a new outfit for job interviews. I was dreading it, because I've always hated shopping, and it's even worse when you need an outfit for a very stressful event!

So I went to my local department store and picked up three dresses I really liked the look of, all a size 16, which I thought was pretty optimistic since I've been between an 18-20 in most clothes I've worn recently.

So I took all three to try on... and they all fit! Not only that, but they all looked gorgeous! I could have quite easily bought all three. This is the first time in my life that I've tried on a selection of clothes and all of them looked fab.

And to make it even sweeter, when I tried on the dress I chose at home, my boyfriend was stunned at how good I looked. Victory is mine!

    Don't you just love those fitting room trips?! It's so strange (in a good way) when you get to decide what to buy instead of just going with what you can fit into. Even better when you can ask for a smaller size.
