i just had a horrific shopping day.. i suppose i knew it was coming after having 2 weeks worth of successful purchases. but today was AWFUL!

i spent 4 hours doing laps of DFO searching for a skirt/ pants/ ANYTHING that i could wear to work and i came up with zip!

everything was either too tight (most of the time) or too big or just plain wrong!!

ehh.. i want out

I've had my lucky encounters with bargains.

Such as the last pair of Mermaid Sister khaki pants (which were my size) reduced to $30 from $80, and the last pair of these cute shoes (which also happened to my my size) reduced to $15 from $90.

If you get heavy periods, like me then you will bleed all over the dress. Not pretty. It's just bad luck all the time. Like the 1st time you wear a dress you like it happens. And in front of a hot guy. Well it happened to me once.

i heard that you shouldnt go shopping around period time because your judgement is altered or something and you end up buying crap that normally you would never wear. is that true? also you can be bloated, so clothes that fit when u try them on might be a bit too big later on.

It's amazing how much shopping can affect your mood. If I've had a particularly good shopping day, I'll be really pumped. If I have a bad day, i.e. nothing fits me, it's just plain depressing. I'll get all worked up over how fat I am, etc etc.

it is weird huh, how a stupid thing like not finding anything to buy can make you feel like shit. I always go shopping with no expectations, never having anything in mind of what i would like to purchase, that way, i dont get disappointed if i dont get anything. I use the same kind of concept with my ideal UAI

nice button up shirt, either plain or patterned OR a thin fine knit top
conservative heels
