Day 27. tailored

I know, I know, baggy, draped, one size fits all clothes are soooo in BUT, there is something undoubtably timeless about a tailored article of clothing.  I am usually not the person who goes to a tailor to alter every piece of clothing because I find that when something doesn't fit right it is an opportunity to get crafty.  Now I am starting to understand the difference in making something work, and making something FIT!  Going shopping can sometimes be the most devastating experience.  Not being able to find something that fits your body can make you feel extremly self conscious.  What you have to remember is the clothing that you find in stores only come in a few sizes.  Those sizes are NOT going to work for everyone, and that doesn't mean something is wrong with you.  It's not worth struggling over jean after jean after jean in the dressing room.  You owe it to yourself to find a tailor and get those staple items for your wardrobe custom fit for your body!  Now that said, these shorts I am wearing were not custom tailored for me.  These shorts just happened to be a freak incident where they just fit like a glove.  I was in Buenes Aires last year and I was shopping at a flea market searching for something different (whats new) and I came across these shorts.  Now at first I must admit I thought they might have been for kids.  But I wanted to try them on anyway because they were too darn cute.  So in the middle of the street I pulled on these shorts over my clothes and sure enough the heavens sang as I zipped the front up because they just fit to perfection.  It is very rare for that to happen and I know I will never forget that moment.  You know what I'm talking about.  I bet you have something in your closet right now that you have had that same experience with.  It really makes your day.  Wow, I just got really worried for myself thinking about how exciting those moments are to me.  ehhh I'm sure theres others out there like me : )
