Why is it . . .

. . . that when I can't buy clothes I see a million things I like, but when I give myself permission to go shopping I can't find anything.

I need a dress for J's college reunion. Luckily it's in May so I have plenty of time, but two months ago I was drooling over everything I saw. Now I can't find much of anything that I like. I need a dress that subtly says, "You think you're better than me?" but in a classic, pretty way. Angel J went to a fancy, mini-ivy school that's kind of known for their annoying students (I'm pretty sure they were voted most annoying a few years back). So while I love and adore his friends, I'm sure I'll encounter a pretentious douche or two.

And J already said I'm not allowed to wear my college sweatshirt to the cocktail party. Come on! 

Re: Why is it . . .

  • Same here, although... if I bring someone with me-I buy NOTHING.  If I go alone, I get stuff... ugh.

    And no sweatshirt to the cocktail party?!? gee, DH. wassup w dat?!

    Sounds like a, um, fun time for you in May...

  • I actually think it will be fun. I'm looking forward to seeing J's friends and we can just laugh at the too-cool-for-school kids.
  • I saw something the other day that I thought would be oh so adorable for you.  Let me try to remember where it was.  Are you the have to try it on type?

    Depends on the dress. My hips, butt, and shoulder can make it difficult for me to judge what size I should get . . . I have clothes in about 4 different sizes.

     

  • I love reunions, as long as they're J's and not mine.  I'm sure you will have a great time and hopefully find something (with Karrey's help perhaps) that will make you look smokin' hot.

  • I have the SAME problem. M's mom will take me shopping sometimes and I won't find anything when SHE'S paying. When I'm paying, of course, I find a whole wardrobe practically.
  • I have the same problem...when I'm out but not shopping to buy I find a ton of things.  But, if I'm shopping on a mission, I find nothing.  Hope you find something fab!  And have fun!

    Ok, that's a bit too far (even though they actually went to the school).
