today's topic-Clothes

I love to shop for clothes, even if it's window shopping. Where I live in MA we have outlet stores about 30-45 minutes away and my husband is a people watcher. Perfect match! So today we went, the temp in Boston was around 60. I went into the Donna Karen store and they were selling daisy dukes. Can you picture us former over weight women in those with our Shar Pei thighs? Great picture, men. I just thought that was funny and I need humor. I did go to the Jones NY store and bought some 't's for $7. each and bought some for Mother's Day gifts, too. I love that store.

I was good today, my husband wouldn't let me into the Godiva store, OMG! I love their dark chocolates and yes, I do eat them.

Happy shopping, ladies and men.

Arlene

Can't wait to shop. Thank goodness I had so many items in the back of the closet that were too small so I didn't have to spend a lot of money, but I'm getting to the point where those items are starting to get big as well. Funny enough, I'm waiting till I visit the folks in Florida to shop as there are no Walmart, Target, or even Avenue stores in Manhattan (there's one Avenue left in Harlem since the midtown store shut, but I live downtown and it's a pain to get up there and drag clothes home on the subway or bus. I have plenty of weight to lose yet so I'm not looking to spend big bucks right now for 'interim' clothes so I'm trying to be fairly selective with what I need and what it costs. That's why I'm staying away from Bloomingdales, Lord & Taylor, Saks, etc. I loved your post CG....you have to make it up to Arlene in Boston, or me here in The Big Apple so we can go major shopping!

you have much more stores than Boston. I don't go downtown. About 5 miles from me is a huge in door mall with over 100 stores and all the major ones are there. But the outlets I love. We also have a warehouse store not too far and I bought Ralph Lauren 't' s for $12. They last about 10 years or more.

I would love to shop with you, till we drop. I also buy for hub, he does not shop. He calls me his stylist. My 13 year old grandson loves my taste in clothes, too. He said I buy the best hoodies.

Love it!! Shar pei thighs?! OMG!! GREAT!!! You're too funny!! But isn't it GREAT being able to buy clothes that fit us - for LESS?! I was so excited the first time I was able to buy a pair of jeans for less than 15 bucks..(I LOVE clearance racks!!) Previously one pair of jeans used to cost me $50 bucks or more!! Now? My bank account loves that I can get more for my money!!
