Clothing addiction..Funny shopping find!

I have to admit I have been on a clothes buying binge for sometime now. I love buying all the pretty colors and styles I have NEVER in my life fit into before. Today I wanted to buy some pretty capris for the spring summer. I found even size 4 petites were a bit longer than they should be. I hate having to hem everything. I am 5 2 Well I went to the childrens department and found I fit perfectly in the capris there and they were half the price from the womens department! So I ended up getting 4 pair of adorable capris from the kids department! I can not believe this! I never believed I could get this small. As a kid I had to get "Chubby" clothing so this is a BIG Deal to me. I have never been thin and I am loving life like never before. Just wanted to share this WOW moment with you all HUGS Mary

WOW THE KIDS DPT!!!!!!!! Thats awsome Mary! I know what you mean about the shopping bug! The problem im having though is finding summer shirts with sleves to cover my bat wings. I like a shirt to at least come down to my elbows for that reason. CONGRATS on your WOW moment!

Kathy, I hear ya on the bat wings. I had mine clipped 1/25 along with some other plastics and I am thrilled. I don't give a damn about the scar! It is fading some already and I know it is going to continue to fade but if anyone has a problem with my scar TOUGH!!!! I like it better than the skin hanging LOL I did all of this for me and no one else :> Last year I still wore sleeveless bat wings and all. I have learned a lot about making myself happy through all of this and that is now my goal in life. HUGS Mary

Hi Mary, I am barely 5'3 myself so I know the feeling of clothes being too long. I am a big fan of the kid departments mostly due to lower prices. I have bought all of my new t-shirts in the girls department in old navy. I used to buy the XXS in old navy then I realized that I get pretty much the same shirts in the girls department for alot cheaper! Whopeee! NEVER in a MILLION years would I think I would be wearing such small clothes, it truly does blow my mind. Take care and feel good! Hugs Tavia

You dont have to tell me about being short...Try just 4'11"...LOL Congrats on your WOW moment. LisaMarie

Hi Mary, I laughed at your shopping spree! I'm not that small yet but I did shop the kids shoes dept and bought a pair of sandals. My feet went from a 6.5 to a 5 /5.5 depending on style. My height is 5' 1/4 " LindaM 230/159/115

Mary, WOW a 4...OMG I was born bigger then wearing a 4. CONGRATS hun, I know the feeling HAS to be awesome because I went shopping over this weekend myself and was able to wear a 12....For me that is just awesome.. SO I can understand that cool feeling. You look awesome hun, you should be so proud!!! Debra P
