Inspiration

Some of you may know that I have an addiction to Pinterest. One of my boards is called, "If I had the body and the money" and that's where I pin fashion stuff.  I'm not, nor have been a fashionista, but I do like the nice outfit. I'm really not sure what my style is because when I had a "shape" -- well a shape that wasn't jelly fish -- it was the 90's.  And I'm not interested in dressing as if I were still in the 90's.  Although, I'll confess, I actually like wool shorts, argyle sweaters, and knee socks with penny loafers (don't hate me).  So I've been 'pinning' things that I like, trying to get an idea of what style I have AND for a little bit of inspiration.  

And I am so hoping that maxi dresses and wrap around blouses do not go out of style before I can wear them....well wear them in a way that makes my mirror happy.


 These are such cute outfits.  Those of you still losing, do you know your style? Do you dress now because of how it fits (I do) or what it hides (me too) or do you dress the way you like? Will your style change when you lose weight?  For those who are at or near goal...did your style change? If you've been overweight for over a decade was it strange adapting to styles different from the ones when you were last thin?

I just know I can't wait....

This post was written in lieu of eating a handful of Cheetos (jalapeno cheese Cheetos -- seriously those are the best!).

    I'm totally with you. Not a fashionista either, but Pinterest makes me believe I am.

    I really wish I could get my fashion sense together and figure out what looks good on me, but at the moment, I just have a bunch of random pieces and combine them all try not to look like a crazy person. Doesn't always work.

    Also, don't say Cheetos to me. LOL

      The C-word then...oh wait...never mind it's already taken. It's either a crazy person or I wear the same thing over and over and I have a huge closet full of clothes...it's a strange phenomenon.

      me too, right now my shopping consists of finding something that fits and is not hideous and then buy it in three different colors.
