It’s hard to believe that it’s been almost 6 months since I had Joseph. It also seems hard to believe that I’m still walking around in leggings 90% of the time. I just can’t seem to get my act together and it doesn’t help that I still have a good amount of weight to lose. It’s not the weight that bothers me too much, it’s not having too many options in my closet and the thought of buying more clothes only to turn around and eventually lose weight kills me. I’m in fashion limbo.
Just yesterday I was heading out to a friends house and I was determined to wear a tank top but I didn’t want to show my arms (yes, I’m one of those who likes to hide her arms). In an act of desperation, I took my scissors to a long cotton cardigan and made it 3/4 length sleeve which led to me to do the same to 3 other cardigans. I knew it would work and the cardigans were only $10 each at Forever21. They nipped at the waist, flare out at the hips and land right above the thighs making them the perfect length for shorts. It actually worked out great and I felt decent enough to leave the house. I had a moment but I made it work and kept it moving.
It’s just like anything else in life you, do what you can with what you have and the rest will have to fall into place.
