I had gotten rid of EVERYTHING smaller than my current big size years ago.  I was holding onto things and my daughter said "just get rid of it - if you lose weight you deserve new"  Ok - I bought that!!  LOL

It would have been interesting to see the sizes differences since most of the clothes were from the mid-90's.  I think I was in 12's and 10's then... I'd love to have compared the sizes today to then for fit.  Of course most of them would have been out of style...

I have become a Shopping Addict.  I found a Coldwater Creek Outlet Store near me & have gone crazy 2 times already.  I definitely have enough winter clothes ... but am forcing myself to wait to start buying spring. 

Well, blew that ... purchased 3 pair of Capris.  But I HAD too ... They were only $7.00 a pair, brand new!

LOL - Let's see if I can go the rest of January without buying clothes.  Though I do need some new panties/bras ... Hmmmm .... Maybe this weekend.  LOL!

Revision from Sleeve to DS (with re-Sleeve) on 10/10/17. Slow and steady ...

Too funny!  Well, CAPRIS ARE spring/summer clothes - right?  I think it qualifies as a justifiable expense!  And bras/panties don't count - they're a necessity.

When I lived in Virginia I found a Talbots outlet store that was like that - I went NUTS!  But since I've lost weight, I find the good sales aren't necessarily in the smaller sizes....

My best buy lately was a pants outfit to weat to the banquet next weekend.  Size 10 from the Dillards outlet, was 99.00, I paid 12.  Woo hoo.
I also stop in pretty regularly to several and picked up another couple of M tops and size 12 jeans.  I can button and zip but they aren't comfortable yet.  They will be, I know and the price was right so they came home with me.

When you see a good deal - and you KNOW you'll be getting into it - buy it!  I did that early out.  The VanHeusen store here was having a fabulous sale on dress pants.  I bought 2-3 in EVERY size - all the way down to the smallest size they had.  It was nice knowing I had somethig to wear.

WooHoo..I missed the Fashion Thread!!

This week I bought some jeggings to wear with my knee boots and long tops. They are a 14 but loose. I haven't been in this size in 13 years!

Of course, my stash of smaller sizes is growing and growing!! I can't wait to get into these clothes...they are so cute!! I have this thing for short fitted blazers...I have over a dozen of them. They look so good dressed up or down...with boots or heels...with a long necklace or scarf....etc... I have started a "look book" with outfits I love and I am shopping for pieces to match.
I love belting long shirts and wearing a cute cardigan over. Unique belts are on my list to find.

Love hearing about everyone's goodies!

What a great idea - a "look book".  I don't know how many times I've gone online to see what you wear with boots, what kind of boots with what, shirts, etc.  I do pay a lot more attention to the fashion section of magazines now. 

I have a ton of belts now and you wouldn't have caught me dead in one before.  An ex-bf was always trying to get me to belt my jeans (now), but I'm really more comfy with wearing shirts or sweaters untucked.  If its a "go out" type thing, maybe...
