Went shopping yesterday with Katie and Jess. It was awesome. I now have clothing! :D
I spent rather a lot of money, but I got a lot of stuff for it-- stuff I actually needed for the most part-- and I can afford it now with this job so yay.
From Le Chateau:
-jeans. Size 12 still, sigh. H&M seemed convinced I was a size 16 so none of their stuff fit me, wtf. I may still be a bit on the chubby side but I am not size sixteen. Anyway, jeans are soft dark blue with a beautiful flare at the bottom and form-fitting top. *__*
From H&M:
-skirt, black, knee-length, casual and lacy and wide-bottomed.
-stockings: black half-length (waist to knee), grey full-length, and grey-and-black striped full-length, so I can wear my skirt without chafing the inside of my thighs right off.
-tank top, green and cream stripes.
From Aldo:
-black dress wedge-heels, strappy and leather and gjkafdjla. I have been looking for this exact kind of shoe for probably six years now, ever since Crystal moved to her mom's and took hers with her. And they were seventy percent off fhaksdjfalkfjg. *____*
From Fairweather:
-two t-shirts with funky printed designs, one grey-and-black and one black-white-and-purple. Sparkly accents. Form-fitting, thin material, cap sleeves, long fit.
-two long tank tops, one black and one dark fuschia.
-one baggier shirt with short cap sleeves and a wide scoop neckline. Has a broad band of elastic at the bottom so it sits on my hips while the fabric in between billows. Looks tres awesome on me. Black and off-white.
-one hybrid shirt that's like a tank top with longer sleeves attached separately so there's a big gap of arm between the strap and the sleeve. Black, with a picture of a girl on it in cream and iridescent red. If it were a person I would take it home and make it french toast in the morning. *______*
So basically, my wardrobe is now badassified. (May do some pictures later.) I feel much better-- I have plenty of self-confidence, so walking around in old shirts and torn jeans wasn't really hurting my self-esteem, but it sure is easier to stand with confidence when I'm wearing stuff I know looks good on me. ^____^
When we got home finally, I bought delivery pizza for all of us, then we sprawled out on the couch together and watched Some Like it Hot, which was awesome. That's an old black-and-white Marilyn Monroe movie, by the way, which involves cross-dressing, gay fanservice, insanely revealing dresses, and people getting shot in the chest multiple times with semi-automatic machine guns, and a car chase that puts everything I've seen in recent cinema to total shame. Nobody can ever tell me that entertainment used to be tamer 'back in the day' ever again. XD
And now I'm back at work. And I forgot my lunch. At least I look hot. -_____-
