Sometimes, dressing can be a problem for me. It didn’t used to be. I mean…I was a size 20/22 and the plus size section was my area. I knew what to wear, how to wear it and what not to wear. No issues covering the fat and the rolls.
Now, that I can shop literally wherever the hell I want to…it’s a little harder. See, I never got to dress all that cute growing up, since I’ve always been a big girl. 14 and up were my sizes and until now, there have been slim pickings for the big ladies. Now, I have fewer restrictions on what my options are and can I say…overwhelming? At times, I feel that I might be dressing too young, but I can’t be sure. I am in my early thirties, but people keep thinking I’m in my mid-20’s. At times…yes it goes to my head.
Like the outfit above…is that too young for a 33 year old? Or am I okay? Anybody else out there with this kind of dilemma? How do you reconcile the fact that you have lost weight with the person you used to be, the way you used to dress? Do you feel you should be able to make up for the missed years of being too big to enjoy all the pretty clothes? I really want to know.
