Shopping in my sister's closet

I always shopped Mom's closet, but everything got too big for me, so I paid it forward. Yesterday, I went to see my sis and she brought out stuff for me to try on that she was tried of. And OMG...it fit!!
Size 8 stuff from QVC which is her favorite place to shop. I got moleskin skirts and tops (faux suede) in a variety of fall colors as well as purple, some cute tops all with 3/4 sleeves (the better to hide the nasty looking foldover skin hanging at my arm bend with) all in size small-8. She ordered me 3 new jackets from there yesterday in a pinwale corduroy in red, purple and camel. I love 3/4 length sleeves..great for work. Heck, I still wear sleeveless (just not at work w/o a jacket) and figure if people can't handle the loose skin wrinkle folds, it's their problem!

Come on fall! All I've gotta do now is find sexy knee high boots.

Amazing..I still feel huge when I stand next to her. We are now the same bra size and clothes size, but I"m still heavier...this loose skin has to way something..just don't know how much.

How exciting!  I love QVC clothes! I know which jacket you are talking about- I ordered a red and black one yesterday.

OOOOH, boots!  You are so lucky to be slim enough to buy boots this winter!  I have always wanted boots but my legs were always too fat.  Next winter- watch out- I am gonna score some smokin' boots!

You have to do a fashion show for us!  It may be cool enough on Thursday to wear the skirt to support group.
I have maintained for one year at this point.  I am steady at -120 pounds.  =)

Oh that's awesome, girl!  QVC has great clothes!  I bet you are looking so awesome and I can't wait to see pics of those boots when you find them.  Yeah, the skin does weigh a certain amount, I can just never remember what I was told.  I think my panni was 8 lbs or so, if I remember correctly.

Charlotte, this reminded me of when my sister used to "shop" in my closet when we were young and liviing at home, and shared a room! Man, she used to make me sooooo mad, mainly because she could wear my clothes, but I couldn't wear hers, because I was slightly bigger than her.
Soon enough her clothes will fit me! I  am waiting for that day! Too bad she lives in California....but we do visit each other on a regular basis!! HaHa!
