ten / 10 / X
tuesday's the day i 'graduated' from a size 8 to a size 10.
sad but true.
i saw it coming, i did.
it was inevitable, all my tops were starting to get tighter and my bottoms (pants/jeans/shorts/skirts) were leaving 'tight-marks' that won't go away for hours after they're taken off.
sigh.
so there i was at the start of the tang's sale hoping to get some a dresses for my recital next week (haven't even perfected my pieces and i still got the cheek to think of what to wear *rolls eyes*). anyway, there're lotsa good buys and it wasn't even crowded (yaye!). furthermore, there's a 15% discount above the stated discount (yaye!) and since it wasn't crowded, there was no queue for the dressing rooms (yaye!). okay correction, there was no queue until about 6pm. then people who have jobs knock off from work and started streaming in, but it was okay as it was a closed-door sale so still not pening kepala kind of crowd.
so anyway, i was literally taking everything i saw on the racks (to try) in size 8s or US size 4s when a sales auntie came up to me and asked what size am i. she looked at my size 8s and 4s hanging on my arm and she said 'no, cannot fit. u need size 10'.
i so did not need to hear that.
she gave me some size 10s to try while i hung on to my size 8s and and insisted that i can fit into a size 8. not.
she was right y'know, 'cannot fit'.
i'm quite mad at being a size bigger cos my boobs aren't getting bigger. i'm okay with gaining weight as long as my boobs get bigger as well. but NOoOo, they're still the same. tsk.
well anyway, tangs have got really nice dresses, some even under $50. very good buy. the ones in celia loe's 'addition' line are really sweet but doesn't justify the price tag.
i really liked the first one (the striped one) but i had to let go of it as i seriously needed to pee and i left it in the bin in the dressing room and when i went back to look for it, i couldn't find it. i went round the whole place and i didn't even find it hanging on the racks. so weird. i also liked the fifth one (the white one) but like i said earlier, price tag does not justify design and material. really liked the cutting, will look for more dresses with that kind of cutting, quite flattering for someone who has no boobs (moi!).
right, so now i've to lay off nasi lemak suppers. roti prata suppers also cannot.
luv, nat
