Getting dressed in the morning is making me irritable.
None of my clothes fit right. Stuff is either too big or too small or not work appropriate. My only bra is too big. And once something fits right it is too big in 2-3 weeks. BLECH.
I mean, this is a good problem to have. And I shop at thrift stores and the clearance section, but there is really only so much you can do! I pretty much live in dresses but seeing as how I work with kids this is not always the most practical thing for work. Can't wait until it's cool enough for leggings...!
/end rant.
LOL I have (almost) the guys equivalent of the same problem.
I saved everything over the years, so on the casual side I have lots of very lightly worn stuff. So far it's been kind of fun getting rid of the stuff that I know I'll never need again. However, the stuff I don't quite fit yet, but I know I will, drives me crazy because I want to get into them. Either way, this is all casual stuff and not for work.
For work I have 13 suits and none of them fit. On nine of them my waist has dropped over 6 inches so I don't even bother with those. The remaining four are older and vary between 1-3 inches too large. So right now I rotate those four suits. I can't buy new suits because any money spent now will be wasted down the road. I can't alter the suits any because they have to be recut. Once recut that's the size they'll stay so it would also be a waste until I'm further along. Mostly, I'm hoping to salvage the suits (they are nice suits) by recutting them at the last minute (it's cheaper than buying new ones).
So I limp along right now. Sometimes I buy shoes and T-shirts to soothe my thirst to buy something nice for the smaller me. Also bought some jackets also because it's easy to buy them tight knowing I'll shrink into them.

I have been trying to buy things that I can shrink into as well. But I just don't have a ton of money right now to be spending on clothes. The biggest problem I have is that half of the day I am in the office (business casual) and the other have of the day I am at the childcare sites with the kiddos. It's hard enough finding an outfit that works for both settings! It would make my life if I could live in yoga pants and a staff tshirt...
We need a "Love" button....I so feel you!
