Confidence transformation, step one

Took the day off from school to go to Thrift City with Erika. She, Natalie, and I have been trying to get there to buy me some new shirts for a couple of months. Natalie has harped me no end about me buying shirts that are too big, shirts I have bought bigger on purpose to cover my big belly. I purchased nothing bigger than a large. Go me.

Natalie didn't make it with us to TC since she left for home yesterday, but it was still a productive trip. I got ten new shirts and a book for $16.26 (it was half price Thursday, except for the book which was a whopping $2.52 – my most expensive item). My two favorites are a mocha colored light sweater which even *I* will admit looks pretty damned good on me and a little short-sleeved black number with a lace-up front. The most interesting find was the very first one: a short-sleeved, scoop-necked job in a shade of green I NEVER would have bet money I could pull off with my hair. Erika has a great eye.

We’re planning a digital fashion show for Natalie after step two.

Step two comes week after next when E gets back from her Mexico trip: a new hairdo. ::bites nails::
