Well, I can't tell you how long it has been since I've been willing to tuck my shirt in, or wear a skirt for that matter. Today, I put on a long shirt, and tucked in the shirt. I was blessed with a couple of bags of hand me down clothes through freecycle. I couldn't fit into everything, but there were several items that worked out. Now, for winter, I need some boots, not just any boot, but the kind that zip up the calf. There is a great winter type skirt from that bag that would look great with boots and a sweater. Oh, the clothes, size small, wow, just wow.

Very, very cool!  I haven't tucked any shirts in but, my DD has me wearing TIGHT shirts.  It was very, very hard for me to let go of my comfy baggies.  I gave her all my XL and was so happy with the large.  Today I took back five shirt from Wal-mart that were large to get mediums.  Never dreamed I would wear mediums as I never did as a teen even.  Granted sizing has changed since then.

Congratulations to you!
