Find #1 from today’s clearance rack shopping... $20 marked down from $80!

Supposed to be a fitted jumpsuit, but today’s body dysmorphia convinced me that this size would be plenty tight (it looked so tiny on the hanger!) And since changerooms were closed had to take it all the way home to figure out it was in fact too big (even though the kid kept telling me at the store to get the one 2 sizes smaller).

Tried to style it so it looked less “utility” and more “slick”, but then the kid said I look like an airport baggage handler and now I can’t get that image out of my head...soooo its going back. Le Sigh.

This looks SO FABULOUSLY CHIC and body lengthening on you!! And what a buy! I hope you’ll smile at the silly utility comment, chalk it up to the lack of exposure from that well intended jokester and instead envision yourself on the Paris catwalk before returning it!! Your boots, belt, accessories and attitude make the difference👌. Truly gorgeous!😍

Try to find something skin tight... You've worked too hard to look baggage claim couture! Haha.

SO CUTE!!!! Now you're talking like an interior designer! All the nuisances of light and color theory! Haha. Also, important stuff for you in professional photography. Love your jacket, though. And, it does take on differing hues like this lavender leather that goes gray, taupe and beige... Just call us the chameleons!

Every time I see you in this jacket I love it more and more ❤️

ms.sss - how about these??? For the May covid cabin trip - I was inspired by Arab to get a full cover swim suit (sun sensitive, baggy arms and legs) and, for the cool Water lake + streams there. This was what I found. Certainly do not have that gorgeous, svelte linear figure (and, those 3 extra inches) as you - to pull it off! But it was famously functional... haha. Water shoes to boot.

Just now seeing this Nermada and prayers that your husband (and you!) are doing well.🙏💗

Thank you, Lily. Your prayers are certainly much appreciated❣He is getting better, slowly but surely. Hopefully, I can go back to work soon, before I lose whatever is left of my mind.😂🤪

I missed replying to this also

Wishing a safe recovery for Mr. Nermada 💓

Thank you❣

Trip to therapist today.

P.S. Had an NSV this week at doctor's. The nurse used the regular blood pressure cuff on me without giving it a second thought AND it worked!!😊

Hey, bite your tongue! You are TOTALLY pulling it off...your legs look like they go on and on and on (which, as an aside, is why I love jumpsuits/long fitted dresses/monochromatic top and bottom...as it makes us shorties look taller than we really are, lol)

Are those thumb holes on the sleeves?? I love those things!

P.S. as for the jumpsuits, i'm looking for something a little snugger than the beige one but not as snug as that denim one, lol. Plan on heading back to the store sometime soon to get a smaller size of the baggage claim suit and see if makes me feel less like needing to wear a florescent vest while holding those flashlight thingees. 😂

@Nermada, oh, I also meant to say something to you way back when I read you post and my thoughtlessness got the better of me...

I do hope that things are on the mend at Casa Nermada, and am sending you good vibes all the days long ❤️

hmmm....methinks you got some nice, fine looking legs hiding under those jeans...i can tell!

I wanted an all in one like yours, Sophie, though just to my knees.(Love the floral print on the top half of yours.) But because the summer stock wasn’t in yet I ended up with the shorts & long sleeved top set. No finger holes though - I love those too.

I think that denim jumpsuit would look fab on you Ms.SSS. I think you should seriously consider getting that one or one like it.

Congrats on the NSV, Nermada. I love NSVs. They make you feel just so happy.

Thank you. Pretty sure there was no thoughtlessness involved! We all have a million things on our minds, and some are bound to slip every now and then. ❤

So went to try to exchange my baggage claim suit for a smaller size, but there were none left 😢. So I got these 2 pairs of jeans (same style, just different rinses), plus this cropped polo shirt for the same price as the returned jumpsuit + another $4. Triple Score! I heart end-of-season sales.
