Dressing up...

I've just spent the evening tidying up my wardrobe, and it feels sooooo good to try on all those clothes I'd bought in a smaller size, those "This is gorgeous and I have to have it, even if it is too tight at the moment" clothes and had stashed at the back of the wardrobe, and they fit perfectly.

Just need somewhere to wear them now...

Go girls! I have to sort out my wardrobe today. If any of you want to try clothes swapping a go I recommend bigwardrobe.com. Trouble is, this means I still have as many clothes as I started with so I'm currently swapping clothes for jewellery and dvds instead...
