New clothes that fit!!!

Yay, after realising the morning that I only have 2 pairs of winter trousers, both of which are starting to get tatty and the horror of finding M&S no longer do them, I ventured into Bangor. TK Maxx nothing in my size that was in anyway wearable, it was all size 8 or size 22. That was OK as I rarely find anything in there, so off to Matalan, nothing there either, everything either to short or fabric that made my teeth itch just looking at it, I started to despair and went to Next in desperation, fully expecting they'd have nothing either, as previously none of their stuff has fit properly, always to a bit to small somewhere. But, I found a pair of trousers that actually fit me and I'm a size smaller than I was last year, so I paid the extortionate price of £35 for them, they will do for best, otherwise known as going to tesco or the doctor, they're baggy. Everything's baggy this year, I don't really want baggy, it brings back memories of the 70's and walking around in baggy trousers in the rain having to hold my waitband up as the trousers absorbed all the water and made them so heavy. I'm guessing whoever designed them has never had the pleasure of trousers being wet up to the knees and sodden fabric flapping around thier legs.

I bought a jumper in New Look yesterday too!

  • I can’t seem to find clothes that fit these days. I can’t stand tight clothing, and everything seems to be “Slim Fit” for the last several years. Pants all seem to be “Low Rise” waists, also, which I hate. I have t-shirts (Large) that are five or more years old that fit fine. I recently bought some new t-shirts in the same size that are waaaayyy too tight. I bought some more, size XL, and they’re also way too tight, in both the torso and the sleeves. So frustrating. I keep hoping this trend for tight clothing will pass. Ugh.
