Outfit Of The Day

Feed your inner narcissist! Post a pic of when your outfit makes you feel cute, sexy, sassy, sporty and so on!

Ok, this is a weird OODT. We made puppets today for a free daycare. I AM technically wearing it.

Ok. Do y'all have the mental space to let me vent about a completely ridiculous WLS first world problem?

Yeah? Great !

I *needed* a new coat. (Long-ish story but my wonderful Cole Haan coat that is dry clean only - I washed/dryed multiple times which is not usually a problem but ... I left it in the dryer too long and it shrunk. Oops ?

So one of my daughters will get it unless I lose 15lbs) I went shopping and these are the coats/sizes/ranges I tried on:

Smalls- which were just right or too big

Mediums- which were too small or too big.

Larges- which were slightly loose or too big

No rhyme or reason to sizing these days

Here are are some of the abysmal results:

Side not: why the **** does this fitting room have a Michael Westmore FX lighting budget... I look like a Ferengi?!?! Whatevs ?

So I went to a different store and did finally find something to make sense of all this sizing madness. This is a medium, which is my true size these days. I also bought high riding boot because FOMO ?

Love this coat! The others were dreadful on you! They made you look about 4'6" tall. Those boots are to die for!

Good choice Though I thought the third one (the belted grey one) looked nice on you too...

(and love the boots!)

The first 3 were all simply off /wrong fit. Ill/well fitting clothing will make you look totally different

YES!!! I went to a nice consignment store the other day and tried on a few pairs of jeans. One size 4 Was Way too big. A size 2 Was Way too small. A size 0 fit. All different brands. Anyway it was my first time shopping consignment and I found three shirts and a jacket I ended up taking home. I was eyeballing a pair of Chanel high heels but I walked away. I never will forget them though. Maybe one day.....

I agree completely

Okay, this outfit is fine, but it would be MUCH better with tall boots. I clearly need to do some shopping! This dress is too big, but the belt is helping.

Love the blue & tan combo!

@AngieBear looking good, lady. A cropped tan jacket is on my shopping list now.

Travel day

This pic made me realize these boots have crossed over from too big to ridiculous. (they were much better at the end of last winter when I was at the same weight, I swear!) Going to have to retire them. Makes me sad because they are so comfortable, I can walk miles in them. I have a tough time finding shoes that are comfortable for winter travel.
