Of course my problem has been compounded by my weight loss and continuing change of shape. I don't really want to buy anything as in a few months time it'll be too big, I have made a couple of things, but right now I'm making do. Wearing some things that are too big, some that I'm just getting into again, some have had to go by the wayside as they are just too big, no one wants their trousers to fall down as they're walking through the office ....!!!
I'm prompted to write this post as I sat down today to make a new work blouse out of my stash of fabric, sadly I didn't measure as I went along, I made it a little snug, usually I'd take it apart and start again but as I am losing weight I'll just finish it off in a couple of weeks and it'll fit soon
So I got to thinking if I had limitless amounts of money what would I LIKE to wear to work.
I prefer smart to casual although my work is kind of casual, so not sure these would work but I sure would like them!
I do love a good suit and used to wear them a lot when I was younger, however as I said it's a pretty casual office so I'm veering more towards this look.
Although without the bullet bra!
It's is a poorly ventilated office, it's local government they have no money, so when it's hot it's really hot, so sometimes I've had to resort to cropped trousers & blouses, but I am running out of ideas and as I said I don't want to spend money for no reason.
I have been relying on a few older blouse I have and these two that I made before I started losing weight, although they are getting far too big now.
I really want more variety, but I'm in limbo with losing weight, it's a great limbo but it is limbo.
In the meantime I guess I just need to search my stash for plainer material to run up a few blouses and skirts to keep me going. I already had to take apart the trousers I made just before I started losing weight, they were enormous.
So like I say a nice predicament but a predicament nonetheless!!
Oh and I have good news. I got the date through for my knee operation, Friday 13th July, just as well I'm not superstitious isn't it?!
No doubt you'll hear from me much more that week as I have to take some time off for rest after it.
