So I went shopping with my twin sister today, who was needing to find a dress to wear to our cousin's wedding next weekend. While she looked through the dresses, I decided to look through the other clothes and see if there was anything I wanted to try on and possibly buy later. During my search through the racks of cute new fall shirts, I came across some jeggings. Up until a couple of months ago, I was much heavier (and 2 sizes bigger) than I am now, so when jeggings first became popular, there was no way I was going to wear them. However, losing weight does all kinds of things for your confidence levels. And even though I'm still a couple of sizes away from where I want to be, I have a new love of clothes that I wouldn't even dream of trying on a few months ago. So anyway, I picked up a pair of the jeggings in my size and headed to the dressing room. And let me tell you...these are the most comfortable pants I've ever put on! Yes they're denim, but I understand now what my little sister (who is tiny and can wear anything, ha ha) meant by saying they feel like pajamas. Because honestly, that's what they feel like. And now I'm very excited about pay day this week so I can go and buy those jeggings! Here's a picture of me in them. :)
Other things I love about this picture/my outfit:
1. That purple shirt...you can't tell because of the angle I'm standing at, but the sleeves have cutouts at the shoulders. It's also kinda loose on me at the top, and tends to slide to one side/fall off my shoulder a little which I really like. :)
2. My sparkly butterfly ring, because it's fun!
3. Awesome aviator sunglasses perched on my head.
4. My necklace...it's got lots of different colors in it, and kind of reminds me of candy. :)
5. The fact that even though I only got four hours of sleep today (I worked last night), you can't really tell in this picture...and in my opinion, I look fabulous. :)
And in case anyone wants to know, the things just listed came from a store called Rue 21, and the jeggings are at Maurices.
Other fun things that I found while we were out shopping: awesome biker boots, dressy black ankle booties, purple moccasins, a few great jackets, and lots of pretty jewelry. After we were done shopping, we were both thirsty, so my sister got a vanilla Italian cream soda and I got a caramel frappe! Perfect ending to a shopping trip, I think. :)
Also, we had IHOP take-out for dinner...it was delicious! And I ended my day with sitting on the pull-out sofa bed with my little sister (who is spending the night tonight), just talking, listening to music, and looking at things online that we want.
Overall, I had a wonderful day, despite the lack of sleep. Speaking of, I do believe it's time for me to catch up on some of that. Goodnight! :) xoxo, Brittany
