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 I’ve 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 don’t 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? It’s a nice feeling.
Can I just ask why the hell women’s 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 layer…
Sure I’ve 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 don’t have the body shape for it…
I’m pretty annoyed at how it seems like clothing sizes are going all bonkers, I don’t 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.
I’m just looking for basic everyday wear that fits comfortably and is machine washable. Why is that so hard?
Seasonal clothing also gets worse. I do not like the options for Summer.
I’m not tall or large enough to wear men’s clothes (maybe a jacket in s/xs will fit loosely if I can find it) and kids clothes are now covered with obnoxious designs that make the age bracket clear.
Today was a really lovely, satisfying day.

and the loose styles have really thin arms so big people can’t wear them
Vanity sizing or trends. Women’s clothing is so cooked now
