I have a good NSV for myself, i went away for 2 nights with cousin this week, and whilst away i got a deep tissue massage on my back, man it hurt, but i stripped down, didnt even put the blanket over me and i felt comfortable. I didnt feel comfortable after it tho, man it hurt!!

Karen,
How yes, camel toe! However, usually you get a camel toe form your pants being way too high, I have the probably like I am wearing mens jeans and they are too long in the crotch.
Oh the bra and knicers idea is great. Just a black cotton bra with an underwire and if anyone did ctach a glimps of it they would just think I was game wearing a bikini!
Oh and my other tip for anyone, wear bike pants under your dresses, holds in your bits! It is a cheap alternative for everyday wear. Sure if you have a wedding or reunion to go to buy the $200 sucker inner body suit.... but then you may faint!! lol

Karen,
The fork would be my crotch love! lol
No, no steak knives thrown in!!
Jeans have always been the biggest pain to fit me, so I am just stoked that that is one less hassle for me. I can go to the one shop and get them forever........ so support them so they don't go broke and shut down lol!!
Swimming togs are something else I loath! But I have them under control now. On the occasion I need them to pop into the ocean on holidays, I have a black bra, black bonds knickers, board shorts and a zip front swim shirt. No one knows what I have underneath and as there is an underwire with me.... well there's no trip hazards :)

Jen and Mel,
I know that size 12 target jeans are sometimes too tight in the legs for me and very loose in the waist and more annoyingly too long in the fork! It is too hard to do a comparason, but I do know that Target jeans and Colorado are probably not a whole size different. My house jeans are Target and they are a size 10....... but they sit funny in the fork, like they are too long, so a long sloppy joe and no one can see!
Jen I am sure that when I was at a clearance store at the Godl Coast they had size 18 jeans..... because everything was an 18 or 8!!
The main reason I liek the Colordao jeans is.... well for one they fit yay!! But also they hold their shape. Prior to getting these, the jeans I was getting at Target were never a good fit, but they always went so baggy around my waist and fell down so I had no bum (and no it wasn't dramatic weight loss dam!).
Make sure that when you go to Colorado you join their Fusion Club. It is linked to them, Jag, Mathers, Dianna Ferrari and someone else....... Williams shoes maybe?
Anyhow, they have wonderful sales and also great offers. When I bought my last pair of jeans I got 20% off just for showing my RACQ card!!!! Bargain!!
Basically the jeans there are $100 a pair, but hey, they fit me, they last and I don't have to get them hemmed if I do the short length.
They are also available in different "rises" and I wear the short ones but they are not those awful little topped jeans with the short zip where all your gut hangs over the top.... Ewwwwwwwwww
Now this will either help, or confuse!!

I don't know what size to take into the change room anymore: I am wearing size 10 NYDJ jeans, 14DD bra and size 12 Target long sleeved Tshirt!!
No wonder we're confused about body image when sizes vary so much!!! |

Sizing is rediculous... and I am in the business, so I know. Size 16 Colorado is probably the same as a size 18 Target? Maybe????? I know that R.M. Williams size 16 is just a miniscule too big for me.... but the 14's won't fit. It is hard to know!

Wearing Size 12 jeans at Colordao. It is such a thrill to know now that every season I can go to Colorado and buy jeans. The style that fits me is always going to be there the lady told me.
If anyone has heavy thighs, Colorado jeans are the go! They also come in different lengths so no hemming hopefully.

Thats lovely kombi, snuggeling up on the chair with the kids is great. Can i say i now enjoy sharing the single chair with my much beloved pooch, without offending you with the comparison. My kids are too old to want to share a chair with mum. But my best buddy loves it :)
Mel, they were great, i loved them! purple if my fav colour ATM. For some reason daughter won't have a bar of them and whenever i find a pair she just about drags me away, hehe!
Jen, i sent you an email. I'll see what i can do in the morning. Cross your fingers, i'll keep you posted :) Just had a thought, what about purple cords as a second choice? I know where i can get them in cord rather than velvet for sure. I can get them if i can't get the other if you like. Just let me know. |

My NSV is having one of the kids sit with me on a single lounge chair. There's seven in our home and if we are all home and watching the same thing on TV we have to snuggle up together on chairs and couches. I love it
