Sweats are stretchy, comfortable, and if you work from home then what the hell, they're just the ticket.

Go velvet like George Costanza.

I love sweats...wear them all the time. Won't work for Phoenix, CD.

Raven, try and look for companies like this one: http://www.winners.ca/en/index.asp

I don't know if you have these stores where you are but I shop here all the time and this is the only way that I am able to afford designer stuff, but if you come and visit me I will be more than happy to shop with ya...hehe

Thanks, Gnat..you always come through for me.

And, in return, everyone go here: http://nattillyattired.com/. Good stuff for your body.

I was talking about around the house/everyday wear. Phoenix sounds like a baggy tshirt and shorts is in order.

The shirt should say "under construction" on it. :D

Good for you hun!

I'm also working out everyday and eating healthy! My goal isn't to lose weight, but I'm happy I am I've dropped 4 pounds just last week (Mostly water) maybe you should wait to go shopping until you've reached your goal...That's what I like to do....Or else we would be bankrupt....lol

I loooooooooooooooooooove shopping!

I have a friend with the same issue.

She says that Kohl's has become her favorite place to shop.

It was just this month that she found out she's not able to shop in places like Lane Bryant because she's finally "too small" for their threads.

Where are the best places to shop in the NorthWest, that has name/designer brands....petite, of course....?

Beauty is a blessing and a curse at the same time....

CD? You always did come up with some brilliantly simple solutions. I like the 'under construction' or maybe 'work in progress' tee shirt.

FB? I've become a work out junkie....maybe you will, too..and good luck to you, too..it's hard.....it's the only healthy obsession I've ever had.

Well, thing is...I won't go nekkid, so I need clothes that aren't falling off of me.

candyflip - Kohl's is coming to my area. It's just not here yet. Good for your friend. I have a real hate on for Lane Bryant. With them, you're only allowed to be fat AND tall. No such thing as short and fat.

Mr. Romance - I don't know about the beauty part. I try to be clever so people don't notice I'm not beautiful....

That's her problem too. She's a shorty.

Try getting some yoga clothes for Phoenix -- they're light enough that even if it's hot, you shouldn't hate life. Lulu, Prana, most of the stuff at titlenine.com will work days without making you crazy. And they've got enough stretch in them that you can get away without a perfect fit.

I'd get a couple pairs of jeans for night in Phx, and maybe one great outfit for a dress up evening.
