Today was a really lovely, satisfying day.
mundane details Got a friend to help me go between Richmond and the CBD looking for work shirts (one heavy duty one and a couple normal ones) to be embroidered for work. Had lunch, plenty of walking in the sun, even some genmaicha ice cream and generally a productive day... Even treated myself to a pair of lovely olive green wide pants and fluffy slippers, both at half price at muji.
The work shirts and slippers Iâve been procrastinating on to the last possible minute. I got it done with the moral support of my friend who knows the fastest way to get around Emporium and helped me look for a lunch place and parking spaces earlier. I donât feel nearly as exhausted as yesterday even though I was out for as long and had to do more active stuff, actually even feel a little recharged? Itâs a nice feeling.
Can I just ask why the hell womenâs collared shirts are so oversized now though? Seems like the only style is to wear them as overshirts, not straight up shirts. Uniqlo and Muji both i needed an XS, even the Bisley work shirt I had to get a size 8, which is unprecedented (normally 10-12). This is on top of a thermal layerâŚ
Sure Iâve lost weight from muscle atrophy being sedentary, but my ribcage and shoulders have not changed size over the last 5 years - I hate this new style! I donât have the body shape for itâŚ

Vanity sizing or trends. Womenâs clothing is so cooked now

Iâm pretty annoyed at how it seems like clothing sizes are going all bonkers, I donât care that I now fit a size lower by design because that means wasting more time trying to find something that fits.

Yes, wasting time and money and getting stressed out about it.
Iâm just looking for something that fits comfortably, is appropriate for the season/everyday wear and is machine washable. Why is that so hard?
Iâm not large enough to wear menâs clothes (maybe a jacket in s/xs if I can find it) and kids clothes are now covered with obnoxious designs that make the age bracket clear.
