I spent this afternoon doing something that you would think would I would enjoy...shopping, for clothes, for me. Let me just say...I HATE SHOPPING!!! (Well actually its fun if I 'm shopping for gifts for my kids, or things for my house, it's just trying to find clothes for myself that I hate.)
I'm afraid that for most of my life I've lived in "comfortable mommy clothes." You know the kind, jeans and t-shirts. Well this semester I am involved in a few things that actually require me to be dressed in business attire. So, I have been shopping several times mostly unsuccessfully. I have had my suspicions confirmed... I was built by a committee and they don't make clothes to fit me. Today I tried on 18 pair of pants that all appeared (according to the size on the tag) to be my size and none of them fit me. Waist too big or too small, butt too tight or too loose, too short, too long waisted, or just entirely all together wrong. It was very discouraging. On my way home I wished that the fashion industry had a complaint department that I could call or email and vent my frustrations. Since there isn't one, I guess I'll just post my complaints here and show up at my next meeting wearing jeans and my favorite Aggie game day shirt!
