beelikejYes, I know, I was shocked too. But I really had no choice since most of my decent outfits don't look that decent anymore. So when I went into town on Thursdaynight, to get my mum a birthday present, I did some follow up shopping for myself.
Browsing for clothes is really not my thing and I had almost given up after trying yet another store that offered XXL blouses that I couldn't even close over my boobs, after barely making them cover my shoulders. What a joke.
But I struggled on, since I may have to dress up and present myself in future job-interview, I desperately needed a nice blouse/shirt/top thingy. (So glad I at least have a good set of trousers) I also figured all those other bigger sized people on the street had to get their clothes from somewhere, surely there had to be a shop out there catering to everyone's needs.
As it turns out there is! Special compliments to the shop where I eventually succeeded finding fitting outfits: H&M. Not only did they sell a wide selection of sizes, they also offered excellent changing rooms. Besides one big mirror there was a smaller one set up in an angle on the side, so you could check out your behind as well, all without having to step out in public. *applauds* Plus there were no pressing salespeople trying to offer advice; I could just take my time and decide for myself.
One blouse with a brown print, one white blouse with a flower print and a blue top that can be worn underneath that (not my idea, I stole it from the mannequin in the shop;)
I was actually hoping for regular button down shirts, but the ones I tried were actually too big and these frilly things didn't feel as scary as I thought;)
I also bought biological socks from the eco-store and treated myself to two delicious showergels: White Ginger and Shimmy & Sparkle White Chocolate Scented Showercream, omnomnom.
If, like me you don't really care about clothes, here is some other pretty:
A picture of a wonderful sunset, taken from behind my computer Tuesdaynight that I put up in my Tumblr:)
Plus I recently put![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
spn_ontheset on my flist: a journal that offers daily photos from behind the scenes of Supernatural. Really cool (and pretty;)
Aaaaaaaaand last but not least... a video of the cute toy I bought at the Fairtrade Wereldwinkel yesterday:
What? It's adorable.
Okay, fine. I'll stop spamming your flist and get back to catching up withspn_j2_bigbang; I've fallen behind after dealing with rl-stuff in the last week, plus I was devouring the 6th part of the Nightrunners-series: Casket of Souls by Lynn Flewelling, so good.
