I'm flabbergasted and have to share my happiness!

I ordered a beautiful jacket from Banana Republic last week in size L, with the hope that I could squeeze into it. It just arrived, I tried it on.... it's TOO BIG!

WTF! clothes are never too big for me! I can't believe I can shop in a 'regular' store, let alone have something be too big. I'm very happy :)

Thanks for listening.

That is so awesome. I, too, am continually amazed that I actually fit into clothes. I had gotten into a 14 and could sometimes squeeze into a 12. Even though I haven't seen any significant loss in the last month, the size 12s are fitting and I'm squeezing into size 10s.

Congrats! I love shopping and I just told my husband this morning that I need some more tops. he looked at me and rolled his eyes, but he just doesn't understand i can't wear sweaters now that it's getting warmer. Sheesh.

And it's not like Banana Republic makes things big either. Girl you own that size medium!

I totally get this!

I just tried on some mail order things yesterday. In this brand, I used to be XXL, or sometimes 3X.

Well, yesterday, one shirt I tried on seemed way too big--it was a medium! The shirt that fit (and was a teeny bit loose) was a small. A SMALL! Crazy stuff.
