So now that I need two completely different wardrobes, one
for work and one for SO not at work, I find myself in a conundrum. Why is
it that the clothing looks so amazing online and when you go to the store the
stuff looks cheap/doesn’t fit/is just ridiculous? Can’t they show us the
clothing on a model then provide a little picture of what it is going to look
like on a real person who eats food and drinks beers? Come on! If I
see a dress on a model online I can almost one hundred percent guarantee that
dress is going to look like crap on me! Not only that, the mirrors in
some of the changing rooms at the stores are soooo not flattering (maybe it’s
the lighting, I don’t know). I swear I need to take a double dose of
antidepressants before shopping for clothing (don’t even get me started on
summer stuff! Shorts......Ug.)
Maybe I need to open a boutique called "Clothing That Will Fit YOU" or "Had A Sandwich For Lunch? Clothing Boutique for Women". There would, of course, be many fat hiding clothing sections! Have back fat? Check out our Hide That Back Fat Section! Flappy arms? Please see the "Three Quarter Sleeve on Everything" isle. Still sporting that baby bump 12 years later? Be sure to hit the "Extra Hold in the Midsection" isle. I would seriously be a millionaire. The concept of clothing for real people cannot be new. Can it?
