Hippie Skirts and Closet Shopping
In a couple weeks my husband and I are off for the weekend to see Phish play at the Gorge. I don't have much in the way of summer clothes, so I decided to spring for a couple of cute new hippie girl skirts (this one and this one... and I'm totally buying this dress as soon as I'm not limited to the plus size section!). They arrived today and although I was nervous that they wouldn't quite fit, I was thrilled that both of them do.
As I was taking the one I'd just tried on off, it occurred to me that the jeans that I had pulled out of my closet reserves back on 6/13 were feeling pretty loose. I wondered if I should try on some of those 5 pairs that didn't quite fit yet?
I opened the bin, pulled out all 5 pairs and gave them a go... three of them fit well enough to earn a spot in my weekly rotation, one I could wear if I wanted to, but is borderline unflatteringly tight so I'm going to hold off and the other one I can button, but definitely can't wear yet.
Before surgery, I was wearing a 28. Right now I'm sitting here in a size 22.. woo hoo!!! :)
I will say that buying cute clothes could quickly become a motivator for me... this could get (financially) dangerous ;}.
