1. Too tight.
Before Carter I had no boobs and no fat... That's not really the case anymore(especially in the boob department...) so half of the shirts I have just don't fit right... They show off any little imperfection and I don't dig it.
See what I mean by no fat and no boobs?
2. Too short.
This goes for everything. Shirts, shorts, skirts, dresses-all of them are a bit too short to be acceptable in most settings. I tried to put together an outfit for a wedding I'm attending this weekend, and it turns out that I have nothing appropriate because if I bent over in half the dresses I have, I'd put on a show for everyone! I think this is partially because a lot of the clothes I have were used as 'club' clothes just last year. I have a bunch of high waisted skirts that I thought were very classy last year... But are apparently too short... and again.. too tight(didn't leave much to the imagination if you know what I mean).
3. Not dressy enough.
I have a couple of items that are very professional(I had to work in a school last January and had to have appropriate clothes for the job). But I don't have anything that works for a black tie event. I have a couple homecoming dresses from high school... But most of them scream 'high school homecoming dress'. For instance, one is purple, one is way short, one is orange...they're all just my quite right for say... a wedding(which is why I'm really wanting a nice dress). I also have some really casual dresses that I could probably try to dress up, but again, wouldn't be appropriate for the occasion.
So my goal on my next shopping trip (which might be today considering that the wedding that I'm attending is tomorrow) is to buy some nice, not too tight-not too short clothing, including an LBD that can be worn whenever!
If I find one, I promise I'll report back! :)
That's a really good idea. Just buy a LBD that you can wear to any and all occasions.
