Apparently I am out of style...

yes, why didn't you all tell me? See, Steph and I went to the mall today, and it was quite possibly one of the worst shopping trips ever. There was NOTHING ANYWHERE in my size. all the stores had the sizes above and the sizes below, but not mine. all day I searched and searched, only to be disappointed every time! so, then I finally found the perfect little white blazer at Hecht's in my normal size (woohoo!), but then I tried it on and it was too big. and of course, they did not have the size below. So, I have decided that I am out of style, and no one told me. And now I am mad at you all for keeping me in the dark. I would tell you if you suddenly weren't fashionable!

anyway, moving on... I think I will write a letter to JC Penneys. That store sucks. I normally don't even go in, but it was the end of the day and I still needed a cute blazer to match my adorable new camisole top, so I decided to give it a try. But then I couldn't decide if I liked any of the clothes I had picked out, because the dressing room was so small that I couldn't see myself. and the floors were nasty and clothes were EVERYWHERE and not even in any kind of size order. Well, I finally found a dressing room that was okay (my theory was right: women's section: bigger women= bigger dressing rooms!) and ended up with a cute little cheap summer skirt. but I will definitely go back to my policy of no Penneys. ick. and now I have a reason to boycott it other than just being a snob. :)

so, it was a pretty unproductive day other than my cute new lingerie camisole and the fun of convincing Steph to buy a really crazy but way fun pair of pants at The Limited. Because hey, if I'm not in style, at least I can help someone who is.

And in one last random Saturday note, I would just like to make sure that you all know that you CAN still get pregnant, even if the guy you're sleeping with is gay. so for god's sake, be safe out there! :Þ

ok kids, 'til next post, be good! I'm out til the blog bug strikes me again...

How sad. I like Penney's, but the one by me is nice and there's sentimental attachment in general.

Try calling the store and ask for the address or phone for the district or area manager, and write him (or her). Nothing may come of it, but you never know: the district manager may not be aware of it unless you point it out. Even if you don't plan to shop there again, you might be doing a favor for someone else.

JCPenney's not doing very well these days. They need all the help they can get from their (potential) customers.

Yes Lisa sold me on a pair of crazy fun pants. I love them! I probably never would have given them a second look and actually considered buying them. Thanks Lisa! And no you're not out of style...you're just really popular and that's why noone had your size.
