Uncharted Waters!

Went to buy a new shirt or two since my smallest ones in my closet are a little loose. The plus size department has been my stomping ground for MANY years, but today the smallest size in that department was falling off my shoulder. Fit good around my middle (where most of my weight is) but my bra strap was peeking out and I didn't want to spend the money with that problem. I stood in the dressing room trying to figure out if I could do something to make it work, then thought, maybe they have one on the other side, in an XL.

DO I DARE??

 Well, I mustered up enough courage to go over there and try one on in a regular XL. It fit perfect!

I can't believe it, I'm very excited! I haven't shopped in a NON_PLUS size store or department for myself since 1995. It's a whole new world!
