On clothes that fit...
So....
A couple of days ago, I went out to Coldwater Creek and bought myself a pair of size 20 jeans. They're really nice, stretchy, and have a tummy control component. They were so tight that I had a little trouble zipping them, but once on, they were stretchable and I noticed that it was really flattering what the jeans did for my legs and butt, which are slimmer than my big fat tummy. I decided to buy them, thinking that they would be pants for the future. But a couple days later, I put them on, and being that they're stretchy, I realized that they looked okay with a loose shirt over them. But then, wearing that outfit, I got TONS of compliments!! Everybody commented on how great I looked, and I thought the clothes were borderline tight.... It just goes to show that wearing baggy clothes doesn't always make you look thinner. And I felt pretty amazing to be wearing a size 20 at all. :D |
Good for you! :hug:
|
I didn't know Coldwater Creek had stores :shrug: :)

BAGGY CLOTHES MAKE YOU LOOK BIGGER THAN YOU ARE. THEY DON'T HIDE ANYTHING.
FITTED CLOTHES MAKE YOU LOOK YOUR ACTUAL SIZE OR SMALLER. In my head, I think I ought to be wearing 18/20s and 1X/2Xs. That's what I wore the last time I was this size. Instead, I make myself wear 16/18s and XLs. And you know what? Everyone keeps telling me I look tiny. Tiny! Me?! Woo for the 20s!!!!! You go girl!! That is all. :) |
