Don’t you love it when you find that you still own a jacket,
pair of pants, or ____________ (fill in appropriate item of clothing) from over
eight years ago, and it still fits? Personally, this never happens with my pants because I always
seem to gain enough extra flubber around my midsection to make said pants sit
somewhere around my thighs. On the
torso end of the spectrum, however, I’ve had great luck in the form of an Old
Navy denim jacket. The purchase
occurred in the in the fifth grade, making my jacket an 11 year old relic which
I once wore with the purpose of hiding my mosquito bite breasts before wearing
a bra became a necessity.
Moving onward. How
in the world does it still fit? I’ve
come up with two reasons: 1. The
jacket is a testament to my old insistence of buying everything one size up in
the fear that I would outgrown it the next season. 2. Such miracles should not be over-ridden with thought.
Your turn.
Any clothing from your past you want to share?
