I remember being "30 something" and going to Walmart to buy jeans...probably sometime after the birth of a child... and having to endure this label...good grief...what woman in her 30's wants to wear a label that says "faded glory" I mean really is that suppose to make you want these jeans? What advertising genius came up with this? Why don't they just say...Wow you were hot in your twenties...but now you are 30 ish...and your glory has faded...sucks for you!
Then...just recently...as I have changed from shopping at the prestigious Walmart to shopping at the goodwill...and growing out of my "faded glory" and having to endure moving up a size...or two...I had to endure this label...
Now I tell you. These were the only jeans that fit in the whole good will store. Nothing like a reminder that your weight is at a cross roads. Which way are you going to go? Up or down? Time to decide appartenly when you move up to this particular size...which I am NOT telling! It is just a little reminder to me of how fat I have become...How I have let myself go...how I need to make a change. I hate that little label. I am beginning to resent these $4.00 fat jeans! And the fact that I think they are getting too tight!

What bra fit me the best? You guessed it...the one with this tag.
Nothing more to say...I am going to crawl into bed, eat some ice cream and never come out...

Just remember, getting older is all part of life...AND it's only temporary! Here's to the resurrection!
ReplyDeleteI'm laughing. I'm so glad they don't have labels that are completely honest, like "Maybe the gym will help!" :) And is it just me, but in your bra tag, do both pictures look exactly the same except for the color and a little white "highlighting"? Oh boy, don't get me started on bras.... :)
ReplyDeleteThis made me laugh so hard! I needed that!
