I hate shopping-especially at the cutesy stores. They don't make clothes practical anymore. Every shirt is super thin and see through. It is WINTER! WINTER!! I need something warm-even dressy coats are not warm. and forget shoes!
Why aren't jeans warm? Whya re they so thin and stretchy? They fit when I leave the store, get home wear them for 2-3 hours and they are falling off of me?!? I like some stretch but jeesh!
Dresses- do they not make them anymore? I am in my mid-20's I don't want an old woman dress but I don't want a mini skirt either. I want a nice looking dress that doesn't make me look pregnant (empire waist things are horrible!) and I want one that hits me belwo my knees. Yes I am tall- I am sure there are others like me. I want a dress I can wear to church. I have a couple pairs of black pants that I wear to church and they were hard to find...and not many women even wear pants to church--we are expected to wear dresses/skirts. But if you can't find them...
I can't even hardly find nice skirts. Also I don't have a ton of money so I can't drop $40-$50 on a skirt and then another $30 on a shirt. ugh. People! I used to be able to find reasonable clothes at WalMart-but now they don't even carry dressy clothes except pant suits and really thin/low cut shirts. argh!
Shoes-- I have big feet and can never find dress shoes. I found a pair of plain black dress shoes at Payless the other day. They are the first pair I have seen in a long time. I wear a size 12 in Womens. Mostly I wear Mens shoes and flip-flops in the summer. My boots are mens. I actually have tennis shoes that are womens, but we had to special order them from New Mexico and that was 3 years ago...they are getting ragged.
Back to jeans- I can't find them long enough and in my size. I am a little on the heavier side and normally wear an 18/20W. I need a longer inseam than the "tall" I try to get at least a 35-36 inch inseam- would like them longer to go over my boots. St. John's Bay makes an Ultra tall jean that is 37" inseam but they only go up to 18-Not 18W. I have a pair of the 18's from before having kids and they are so low-waisted that I don't feel like I can wear them-plus they are tight. lol.
That is another thing- why do they think we all want to show our butts? and I don't want the muffin top look, wish they would make a jean that would stay up!
I could go on...Purses-can't find any that are not HUGE and BRIGHT or plain and grey. I just want a simple not over $50 purse that doesn't have a crazy pattern and isn't bigger than my diaper bag!
panty hose/tights are only made for women with short legs. None of the charts go past 6'0 tall and most only go to 5'9 or so. Well I am 6'3 and those extra inches really do matter because they are in my legs. sigh
Why do I have to be so undressable?
