WOW Moment!!!
Went shopping today for a pr of jeans...(clearance $7) and found myself saying, "Um... do you guys carry size 13?" HAHAHAHA, I haven't been in a 13 since 5th grade! The best was when the salesgirl replied, "Yes, our 13's are on the other side of the store...this is the PLUS size side. AS IF...like i didn't know where I was...the PLUS size side will always have a place in my heart...
That's great, Aliya! I went shopping for jeans yesterday, too... One gripe I have is, all the "in style" jeans are low-waisted and just don't work well with my ample-but-shrinking belly. I had no problems getting 16s on (stretch of course) but had to really dig for a pair that weren't low-rise. Low-rise wouldn't fit. I did find a pair and love them - I haven't been a 16 since I got pregnant with my son 11 years ago!
The one downside is, I'm also going down in bra sizes... I was hoping the "girls" would stay in tact but that apparently isn't in the plans. Hopefully, they don't retreat much more.
Woo hoo go Aliya, straight to the normal size section! I had a similar moment this week, I went to Lane Bryant to use my real woman bucks and hit the clearance rackl I bought 14/16 tops figuring I would be in them soon, got home and guess what, I can actually already get into them! Now if the bottom half would catch up I would be great! The thought that I am now into the smallest size at LB in tops was amazing to me. Cant wait till I can walk away from that store all together!
