I had posted back on that bra thread about the bras I found that I actually can wear and like and stand to be in them all day, I ended up buying several of them on sale and qualified for the bra club so they just sent me a $30 coupon code to get my free bra, I got another one of the same bra. I now have a nice colorful collection and am still really liking this bra. Plus I can find lots of 30-40% off coupons with a quick google search. Wirefree front-hook seamless leisure bra by Comfort Choice� in fact there is a 40% coupon code right there on the page www59892 they have the same bra in a back hook version too. this summer I have lived in my Old Navy cropped pants they are exactly like the yoga pants but in a capri length, I love their yoga pants, I wear them all the time when it is cooler. They are the most comfortable fabric and fit me perfectly. For 4th of July they had a buy 2 get one free sale and they were already marked down I stocked up! Cropped Wide-Leg Yoga Pants they come just below the knee. I do buy them a size smaller than pants I buy elsewhere.

With all the different jean styles and human shapes, I doubt any two of us would wear the same exact jeans. I like a midrise and a boot cut (not a wide leg). I work all week (no jeans at work) so I find I only need one or two pairs of jeans in my wardrobe at any given time. I would pay $100 since I get a lot of use out of each pair but I manage to find them for less. While I wouldn't want to be 'out-of-style', I think it is much worse to wear something that doesn't work for you, just because it's in style. I have huge calves and big feet so even if it were considered the only 'hip' style, you will never find me wearing straight leg jeans, tight around the calf.

I lost 40 pounds since July and having fun buying all new clothes. I don't care that I'm wearing jeans from stores that teens and young adults shop in. The only problem I have is the mid-rise jeans are not mid-rise anymore. They're low rise. I simply wear a belt and bought a lot of tunic style tops. Maybe you need to be fitted properly for a bra. I have to buy mine online (www.figleaves.com). I went into Victorias Secret yesterday to buy a convertible bra so I can wear tops with spaghetti straps this summer. The girl measure me the strangest way! Across my back, then up over top of my boobs for the band size! Then she did the fullest part and concluded my bra size. I took the bra she chose and knew before I even tried it on there was so way it would fit. I ended up buying my bra online. I'll have it in 3 weeks..... I used to buy a lot of clothes at Sears too. But I found when I went there to buy a dress to wear to our company Christmas dinner most of the clothes they carry now, my grandmother would not have worn. Their styles are so outdated and ugly. I ended up buying my dress at Le Chateau, which when they first opened, I called: Le Shat-ho.Most of the clothing they used to carry I only pictured hookers wearing. They've changed a lot. I've bought five new pairs of jeans in the past 3 weeks. 1 pair of Guess Jeans. 1 pair of Brody jeans, 1 pair of store brand (Bootlegger) jeans, and 2 pair of Silver jeans. I LOVE the Silver jeans. They're from a Canadian based company (Winnipeg) and the material is thicker. They're stone washed and extremely comfortable. I used to buy my jeans at a western wear store. My favourites for years were Aura jeans by Wranglers. But they don't make my style anymore and the jeans they do make have so much bling on the back pockets, and I don't need people staring at my butt. ;) The only problem I'm having is buying a pair of knee high dress boots. My calves are 16" around and most boots are 14" - 15". I've about given up. I did buy one pair of ankle boots that I love. Maybe I'll just find another pair with a bit of a heal on them and give in to defeat. Or defeet..... ;)

Thanks for the links. The problem I have with ordering clothes I have never worn before is knowing if they will fit. I always have to try them on because each brand or style is different. Once I know that they will fit, I can then order them online. I hate the hassle of ordering something then have to send it back because it didn't fit. I wish I could find them in a store around here. I will check out Tractor Supply and such places.
