so either my feet have
so either my feet have shrunk or shoe sizes have recently changed. and since my older shoes still fit fine, im opting for the latter.
every shoe - but cool, pretty, and ugly - in my size section were too large for me. while i have wore a size 10 since i was in junior high, the size that fits me now is apparently a 9.
and thats not just at one store - its at a couple, actually. its crazy.
i did end up buying myself a pari of shoes - the ones i had been eyeing for a while, too. they had gone on sale and there was only one of my size (the 9, not the 10, that is) left. it was meant to be.
and i bought a great pair of green cords at value village for $5. i havent wore cords since the mid-80s when they made that terrible 'whoosha-whoosha' sound when i walked. oh the horror.
and three pair of underwear from here for only 2¢. i had forgotten that i had a gift card since christmas time.
all in all i spent under $30. which makes me feel a lot better about the 'selfish' purchses. and i know b is going to wear the cords. which is fine, as long as its not to work.
anything in the closet is free for either of us to wear. which means i can wear his long-john shirt that looks great on me, he can wear my tear-aways, etc. im just pretty positive that he wont be wearing my leather skirt. which is good - he doesnt have the legs for it.
