Yesterday during my lunch break, I went to get myself a couple new shirts... My mom had told me that if I didn't 'break out of the black' she was going to go shopping for me:ohwell: ! Quite frankly I would love that but since I'm 32 years old, I'm probably too old to have my mommy shop for me! Ha ha I bought two, one green and one brown. I didn't have time to try them on in the store. Once I got home I tried the one in 'my size' first and it was HUGE! I have to take it back and see if there is another in a smaller size (or two!) because the hubby LOVED the color on me... The one that was 'sure to be too small' fit AWESOME! I'm wearing it today! One day I just might realize that I am not as big as I once was... maybe:wink: !

    Congrats, you must (quite rightly) be feeling very chuffed.

    Congrats to you!! I know how good this feels as I was just able to put on a pair of jeans I haven't worn in nearly 3 years. Keep up the hard work, your doing great!!

    woot! someone gave me a bunch second hand clothes. most all of them are colors & styles I'd never have bought, including a lemon yellow blouse. Never in a hundred years have I purchased or worn lemon yellow but it looks GREAT! I get compliments every time I wear it and I wear it a lot.
    Sometimes we need to break out of our routine- try something new. Change is good and COLOR IS BEAUTIFUL!

    Similar NSV of my own today. I pulled a shirt out of my closet that I haven't worn since fall because the weather hasn't been warm enough. It hangs off of me. I thought I could pull it off though, but as I was walking in to work a big gust of wind blew by and I accidentally exposed myself!!

    :laugh: How horrible and WONDERFUL all at the same time!

    To all: Thanks! and yes Heidi... I really really do need to take a day (or anything longer than 10min!) and go shopping and try on stuff instead of just grabbing it off the rack and saying "yeah probably!" hahahaha

    Congratulations!



    (the clothes my mom picked out for me tend to be the ones I get compliments on.....and I'm much older than you... Apparently my mom knew how to dress me. Or at least was willing to spend a little more than I am..which meant choosing what she liked over what was left at Ross... but I totally know what you mean about it seeming weird.)
