Isn't it grand when you can fit into "old" clothes? In March, I was packing for vacation in Arizona (read: I left a foot of snow for bathing suit weather). I have a blue sleeveless dress that I didn't EVEN consider packing because in the past, it was tight around my rear and hips. Then the light bulb went on in my head, "Hey? I bet that might fit me now!" So I tried it on. Not only did it fit, like you, it just hung on me! Haven't done the shopping thing yet. But soon here it will be beach weather! Happy LCing!
