Yesterday I went shopping.
This is something I don't do often, but I needed new work clothes and was going to be at Ingleside anyway to pay off a couple of store cards, so I went to Macy's.
An hour later I walked out the door with four luscious short-sleeved tops (dark chocolate brown, rose, spring green, and black), one pair red linen pants, one pair chocolate brown linen blend pants, and one pair of blue jeans that fit and fit well. I used one of my Rewards cards to get a discount, so the haul wasn't nearly as expensive as it should have been.
Combined with my expedition to the Hospice Shop and the Salvation Army last Saturday, I now officially have a summer wardrobe. Maybe *now* people will stop threatening to send me to "What Not to Wear." *sarcastic look*
*Yes, I watch the show sometimes, and yes, it's often funny. But it's also often humiliating, especially since some of the more recent outings have highlighted women whose major fashion crime seems to be that they don't dress like they're from New York. Personally, I'd politely tell them that no, they could keep their money because how I dress is none of their business, and then I'd have to spend at least a month cooling down before I spoke to any of my friends again....
