I don't follow fashion. It took me a long time to see fashion as art that you wear. I admire people who are creative because I am not. I still can't wrap my mind around people that go to fashion week and say "Yes, I need to have the winged, feathered collar, shirt dress!" Had it not been for Garanimals as a child, I would have been a plaid, striped nightmare for sure.
If you look in my closet, you will notice a few things: 1 pair of jeans that are a little big, 2 pairs that are 12 years old that I hold onto as my "target weight" jeans. Which is kind of silly since I will be buying new jeans when these last 12 lbs are off. I also own a ridiculous amount of black yoga pants. These pants were part of my demise. Anything with an elastic waist was my friend for a loooong time. I have vowed that over the winter, I will be sure to wear something with a snap and zipper most of the time. You can't tell you are putting on weight when you wear the oh so comfy black yoga pant! I also own a LOT of Hanes t-shirts. Being a lunch lady does not call for much creativity in the wardrobe dept. So I basically buy the same shirt, in a rainbow of colors and call it a day. I own a couple sweaters and some long sleeved Hanes shirts, too.
It is pretty boring in that closet. When I am down to my target weight, I will be going on a shopping spree. Nothing winged or feathered but definitely clothing that is more fitted and a little girly. I am ready to show off my hard work.
Where do you like to shop? What's in your closet?
Thanks for stopping by.
