Oooh Carol, make sure to get some special underwear for low-rise pants. Since your jeans aren't that low, you'll be able to rest safe in that nothing will show. I can't rec a store for you. I usually buy underwear in lingerie stores like La Senza and La Vie en Rose or the lingerie department of Les Ailes de la Mode.
I went to the drugstore during my lunch hour. Of course, I was attracted to the magazines. I checked out Glamour because I just love the Do's and Don'ts page :) Anyhow, I looked at some Fall fashion. Bad idea. The mod look is in for Fall. I love that look! I love the boots, the tights, the turtlenecks, the short skirts and dresses... I like showing off my legs. A lot :) (We need better smileys by the way.) So, turtlenecks, got'em. Boots, got'em. Tights, need more but I always have'em for Winter. Short skirts and dresses, oops, don't have those! I only have the one jean miniskirt but that won't work! Sigh, now I *need* more clothes. Maybe a dress and a skirt. Hmmm, maybe I should skip the corduroy skirt and replace it with a cute mod thing? Ack, ack, ack. And then, I saw that the menswear thing is in for Fall too. I don't look so hot in menswear but I love love love those Argyle sweaters! I was looking for one a couple years ago and couldn't find one I liked. I was looking for classic colours like red, black, camel, etc. Now, I'm willing to have more fun with colour. And here I was thinking I had enough sweaters. Oh and tweed! I've been wanting tweed for a while too and it's also back! Hate that. Now, I'll have to buy pants or a skirt in tweed. There was some more stuff but that's what struck me.
It's amazing really. Here I was, quite happy with what I was planning to buy and bam! More stuff on the wishlist! I don't know how I manage to keep afloat financially... So here's what I want now. Note it's what I want, not what I'll get.
-brown boots
-suede/leather coat in a cool yet eternal style.
-jean coat in a non-traditional cut
-corduroy pants (will be getting beige or camel after all because my beige pants are looking shabby and everyone needs something beige)
-corduroy miniskirt
-colourful miniskirt (blue or red or fuschia or purple, I would think)
-short tweed skirt
-tweed pants (this is a wishlist, ok? I can have the skirt AND pants)
-Argyle sweater
-minidress mod-style (I tell you, I have exactly the figure to pull this off)
-long suede or fake suede skirt
-underwear :)
-casual bag
-dark red shoes (saw some way cute Skechers)
-oh, and these really cool corduroy brown pants I saw, the corduroy stripes are so fine it almost looks like it's not corduroy!
And that's it. I need to start finding money now... Realistically though, I'll likely wait for sales for a lot of this stuff. Boxing day sales are always good...
