Shopping
The girls and Husband decided that I needed to buy new jeans. My old jeans are starting to fall down and, frankly speaking, none of them need to see my crack. That would certainly traumatize them for life.
ANYWAY - I made it to the mall this morning and had one helluva time finding what I wanted. I watch What Not To Wear pretty religiously and I sorta have an idea what I can and cannot wear. When you are a fat chick, low riders and hip huggers are a definite no go. I finally found a pair of jeans in Lane Bryant that fit me ok. So, I bought them. I wandered the mall some more and ended up in JC Penneys. I tried on a few more pairs of jeans found a pair of Levis that fit quite nicely. They are a TAD too long but I might be able to get them hemmed.
I stopped at Famous Footwear and fantasized drooled over a couple pairs of shoes. I have a $10 coupon that I've been itching to spend. I saw a few pairs that I lived but left empty handed.
I made it back home and changed into the jeans from Lane Bryant. As soon as I sat down, the freaking button popped off. Now, there was NO f'ing way that these jeans were too tight. Now, I have to drive back to the mall tomorrow and exchange them for the same goddamn thing. Grrrrrrrrrrrrr! So, I put on the Levis and they fit great. I decided to go back to Famous Footwear and check out those shoes again. The promo was Buy 1 Get 1 Half Off. After much shoe debating, I picked out these two:
Aerosoles
and - my best buy - Aigner shoes for $12.50!
Both pairs are quite comfy and I am wearing my bargain Aigner shoes right now.
We've got a troop trip today woth Youngest's Daisy troop. We are visiting the local police station. Stay tuned for pictures - I hope!

Great looking shoes. I never seem to run into bargains like that.
And I think shopping for jeans is hard for everyone. And when you find a style that fits, you can be assured that they're about to discontinue it.

I have a pair from Lane Bryant that lost a button, but I replaced them and love the new pair!
