Thanks. i know. I was shaking when my mom told me. After picking up a few of the plus sizes and screaming to my mom, "Too big!" She handed me the last tee. After it fit, she annouced that it was from the regular section.

Thank you all so very much. Today at work I was starring at the reflection and my eyes watered. I think I have to buy a L and M version of the first blue one. I love it so much I want to wear it every day and will be so sad when it will be too loose too!

it's such an amazing feeling, isn't it?
I CRIED in the dressing room at old navy the other week when i realized I could fit into a size 10...
Those shirts are awesome - they're all great but that first one is smokin' hot!
Can i just say that I am totally jealous of your curves - i am way too boxy to ever pull a shirt like that off, but it looks like it was absolutely made for you!
you're beautiful - great work!

I finally cried over it thinking how I'd thank my boss and I think typing this I may again. I looked at the price tags versus the plus size shirt I got. The plus size was 22ish and one of the shirts was 12. I feel so happy to have normal, non inflated prices. I've never fit in regular clothes. This is the first time ever. I guess I will only be able to shop at plus/regular sized shops now since I'm in between right now. Omg, I can't believe this. As I walked out I saw that the plus size also had this shirt. I had to ask my mom to make sure that I got the regular size. It's amazing. I can't believe it.
