How could I have missed a thread about shopping
I can't believe I just stumbled on this! Feel like I need to address 4 pages worth of issues.
Sizing: I kind of like vanity sizing, guess cause I'm vain. I would really much rather buy pants in a 6 than an 8, when I know that I'm really an 8. I rather not think of the days when I could fit into a 2 at the same stores where now I get an 8. I also need to have about 80% of what I buy altered. Mostly winter stuff, in the summer I can get away with buy cropped pants and wearing them as regular length ones.
Shoes: My feet are pretty small and I'm often reduced to buy a 6 and then wearing it with insoles and socks. I really can't understand why more companies can't make shoes smaller than 6 (and why department stores can't carry them). They have size 00 but not 5.5 shoes. Doesn't make sense.
Bras: After the recent bra info overload, I finally admitted that I've gained a cup size while being on the patch and need to throw out all my bras and start from scratch. Finally came home from 5 new bras from Calvin Klein. His stuff is just so comfy and fits me perfectly.
Diamonds: One carat for every year sounds awesome. Sign me up. Where do we start counting though. Although I'll be pretty happy with 4 carats too. We'll be about 6 months post-training for our 5th wedding anniversary and I'm hoping we'll be able to afford a nice upgrade for my ring. I'd love to double my center stone (which will only bring me to 1.5).
Bus: If we're all going somewhere together, it has to be a place I can take everyone shopping. Are there any good malls in Columbus, OH?
