I want to start a thread for ladies who buy clothes thru their weight loss to show it off because we know that it feels good to buy something that looks nice and may not be something you'd usually wear. I personally love to bargain shop and find clothes at a reduced price. So I'll be sharing my finds
Here's what I got yesterday to go out with some friends for tea!
I paid 17 total for the dress and shoes from a beals outlet dress was 14.99 and shoes were 5ish on clearance and I received 10% off for bein younger than 40 or something hah.
So it's shorter than what i would normally wear but I loved how my legs looked, I felt my legs were super slim in it
And I adored how the top part looked, made me feel feminine
Edit! I wanted to add my hiking outfit I got there yesterday, Columbia capris and a pale green jessica Simpson top for 20 total for both.
Original price was 50 for the pants and 28 for the top. I love a steal
I really hope this thread takes off and we can share our fun clothes!

I bought a pair of jeans and a top that was on clearance. The total price I paid was $12.60 at khols! Can't beat that!!! They have tons of clearance stuff right now.
Original price for the jeans was $48, the top was $24.00

That's awesome! Love a good sale expecially when you're not going
To stay the same size for long
I love the idea for this thread! I shall post in it at 161! (That's my first scale mini goal according to my app on my phone-its 1/3 of the weight I have to lose) And at the time I WILL have a new outfit and I WILL post photos

Oh this is so true! I was thinking of going back and buying a few more things to hold onto for when I am at a lower weight. But, I am kinda tired so it's a battle to either stay at home or drag my 4 year old that likes to walk away from me so he can talk to other people, lol! Not fun when I am trying to shop.
I bought a new bathing suit top (tankini style) http://www.1-plus.com/Printed-tankin...parel-Swimwear . The store had a special, any full price item 50% off, and I had a $15 off voucher for being a member of their loyalty program. So a $50 item became $10 plus tax. I didn't like any of the swim bottoms they had at that location, so I went to walmart and got a couple plain black high cut bottoms. My old bathing suit is a little too big, and hubby and I rented a hotel room for our 1st anniversary and there's a nice pool at the hotel.
Dang i adore red hair and you look great. i only wish i had A BUNCH OF MONEY, lol..to support my wannabe shopping addiction
Didn't buy anything today YET but i do want to find that perfect pair of skinny jeans, i have none as of yet and i have to shop carefully as i'm older (but i still like "young" looking clothes) and i have a bit of a tummy due to loose skin but i still think i can rock skinny jeans as i just did buy a pair of purple peep toed platform pumps that would look great w/skinny jeans.
My most recent purchase was a bathing suit, a dress, a floral button up top, and a pair of shorts. I'll post pics when I'm not on my phone.
I said I'd post pics and here they are! I don't have any of me in anything I bought cept my bathing suit; the rest of these are from the store I bought them from.
Bathing Suit (a size 6, btw!):

Top:

okay i JUST bought myself my first pair of true skinny jeans. take some time getting used to those puppies! Can't wait to wear my purple platform pumps with them however it's too bad i have hideous huge BLOCKY knees. Oh well, maybe no one will notice!
I go clothes shopping weekly because my body is like a moving target at the moment. Pants and shirts seem to either fit one day and are like balloons the next or are too tight one day and then just right a week or two later. Same with belts.
IT IS DOING MY HEAD IN!
This week, a new belt (36 inch), a blazer (48 inch chest) and a pair of black Levi's (36 inch waist).
For the record my starting weight belts/pants were 44 inches and my starting weight blazers were 52 inch chest.
180 bucks. Weight loss ain't cheap for me 'cos of da clothes.
Thedollylala, I just want to tell you that you look absolutely beautiful! Those look like goal weight photos to me!
Aw thankyou! I have 40 lbs to go! But it's much appreciated, and feels good to hear that!

Thanks!!! Love rockin the red hair!
I think you should just go for the skinny jeans! I see some at Macy's that are great, also old navys rock star jeans are amazing too!!

I bought a really cute pink and white stripe long summer dress (in a size medium !!!!!!!!! that's so crazy.)
I also went to the thrift shop and bought 2 pairs of really cute workout capris. Also they look like they haven't been worn at all. The woman in front of me in the checkout line was having issues. I waited patiently and the cashier gave me 30% off for being nice! So I spent $9 on 2 capris! Sweet!
Lastly I got a pair of really cute pair of sandals (slingback, cork, peep-toe, about 3 inches high) and I can't not wait to wear them out!
What clothes did you buy today?
