Last week I went to check on my sales at a consignment store and since I had made a bit of money, I started browsing for something new. After trying just about the whole store, I was left with one hanger, a pair of jeans I'd picked up, that didn't look too long, Gap 1969, which usually fits me well... I try it on... Wow, I think, the owner of these must have had pretty similar features to mine cause this fits me... I say... like a T! Well I have to take them.

Then we realize at the cash they were mine!

An unsold pair from last February.

I remember back them selling them because I thought they were too big.

That's why I didn't recognize them in the fitting room: I had never seen them fall on my body in this way. Anyway, the owner "gave" them back to me, saying it was the universe wanting me to keep my jeans. Funny!

Here they are. I have tried to styled them. But I must say right now that today I feel so bloated and awful, it's hard to get all excited over an outfit. I soldiered on.

pics 1-2: with a BR black shirt, trying to tame the "untucked" look (so not me).

pics 3-5: with a bohemian inspired sheer blouse. (again, sorry for the blurry one. I was the only one from the front). Trying to style it with a belt. Because suddenly the new breasts change the whole look of this blouse on me, and without a belt it makes it look like a tent. Does this work?

pics 6-8: with a TH blue button down shirt, tucked. I a so uncomfortable here. It might be all in my head. But I feel bulky, not sexy at all.

So, should I re-love these jeans or was I right to get rid of them in the first place? (Also notice how the hem is now shorter? It doesn't use to be like this. It's because now I fill them out).
