Today I retail therapied my ass off. LB rocks so much that I am seriously thinking about NOT losing weight!! Ok.... losing SOME but not enough that I can't wear their clothes anymore. In all honesty, their smallest size is the smallest that I have been in almost 10 years. Since before kids. So.... when I lose my 30, I should still be able to buy there. And that makes me happy. I will be the smallest one in the store instead of one of the inbetweeners.
I got an AWESOME top for a wedding tomorrow and I also got myself three tanks (which looked a LOT better than I thought they would!) and some SUPER cute capris that were ON SALE!!! Sorry Mel.... they didn't have any Bermudas!! I looked. I looked HARD. The only thing that they had in my size (which, according to the sales lady is the most popular size in that store) were the capris that I bought. However..... they ROCK! And with the tanks I got.... I am actually a somewhat hip mom!!! LOL!!! Thirty is the new twenty, right?!?!?
On a sadder note, although I haven't ever bought bottoms of any type there, the size I had to buy today in the capris was a size bigger than what I normally buy at, say, Walmart. The tops, however, were smaller than most other places I shop. Nay, EVERY other place I shop. Explain that. The tops there fit me smaller and the pants are bigger. Ugh. Whatever. I am happy. for now. Until I undergrow (not outgrow) them. Then.... back for more retail therapy. (That and drying the capris I got today on HIGH so they will still fit!! LOL!!)
P.S. I really did try to find the things I bought online so that I could post pics. The only thing that was on there was the tanks. Pretty sure you all know what a tank looks like!!

Glad you had fun! Isn't it a great boost? I felt so much better once I had a few new things to wear. Amazing. We are such simple creatures.
Now I'll be paying off the LB charge for another year (I almost had my last fall wardrobe paid off!) but I'd say well worth it!!! :-)
That is the ONLY reason I don't have an LB card. I have even been offered a job there once all of the kids are in school.... I just don't know if it would be worth it though.... my whole check would go to clothes. And if I had an LB card.... fahget abaat iit!! (My big fat greek wedding voice).... it would NEVER be paid off!!
