With all the recent lovely ‘summer’ like weather it was that time of year again- Time for the Summer Wardrobe.
I don’t live in a mansion with a walk in room/wardrobe were everything stays in order *dreams*, no, I live in a squished 3 bedroom terraced house where my bedroom is in a loft conversion. This has one BIG problem………….my wardrobe will only hold so much at any one time! Therefore, I pack my summer stuff away at the end of the warm weather an get all the winter woolies out. This week I have just done the opposite, cleared through the winter stuff and sorted through all my ‘summer’ style clothes.
THIS YEAR THERE WAS A PROBLEM!!!!
A big problem as far as I am concerned…………………….a weight problem.
OK I’m not huge, but I am vertically challenged and so any extra weight is VERY noticeable ( any vertically challenged comrades will know what I am talking about). So I decided that I wouldn’t keep anything that was properly tight with obvious ‘muffin tops’ showing………………………………………………This left me with very little * huffs a little but see’s the chance to buy some new bits*.
I have gone from an 8-10 which I have now been for many years to a 10-12 (more of a 12 on the bottom!). LikeĀ I said it’s not sumo wrestler size but enough to make me very uncomfortable.
So this is the lot that has to go *weeps*
But YAY for good ol’ Primark who came up trumps with bargain linen trousers, a gorgeous pair of chino slim fit on sale, and some great shoes ( no my feet haven’t grown but come on…….they have to match don’t they?)
So now I don’t feel so bad…………………surprising how a few new items can make you feel, right?
How’s your summer shaping up?
