Today I went shopping with the adorable [livejournal.com profile] scoobygang63 and proved that my waist and my boobs and my arse DO NOT BELONG ON THE SAME PERSON.

Maybe my boobs and my arse, but not my waist. Because 44-32-48 IS NOT SHOPPABLE. When I put on a waist belt over my t-shirt in Primark, two chavvy girls' eyes nearly fell out. It looked insane. I looked like someone had stuck a bike pump up my arse and inflated me, like a cartoon.

See, I have an interview for my boss's job on Monday, with what sounds like a middle-aged man who knows I'm bisexual (equal opportunities forms, oh yay) but has never met me, and said he can't wait to meet me. EXPLOITEXPLOITEXLOIT. So, I have a grey pencil shirt, a grey and white striped, slightly-over-sized boy-shape shirt, over a black tight tee, and with black heels. I just tried it on with the Magic Pants. HOSHIT. Even I would do me.

I spent almost £40 in Primark for which I got:

An enormous handbag in grey, black and reddish pink - £6
Two pairs of flannel pyjamas in shades of blue - £8
Blue and yellow 'California Dreams' retro t-shirt - £4 (reminds me of the Rehab Summer Camp one I was wearing at the time)
A green and white vest top - £2
5 pairs of stripey socks - £4
2 pairs of tube socks - £2
Pants: 2x Space Invaders, 1x Rubiks Cube, 1x Made in the 80s, 1x Magic Fat Bird pants.

I've a feeling there was something else but I can't remember what it was. (Oh - a PVC make up bag)

All in all, a good day. I spent less than £100 on clothes and got quite a bit, plus a good outfit for the interview.

I really hope I get this job.

I wish I had your problem. I'm flat chested, with long limbs. The only shirts/pants I can wear that don't look ridiculous on me are guy's clothes, which make me look even more masculine than I already do. Epic fail. :(

But yay for finding all that stuff, you really scored! :D I think you should take pictures of everything, though. I wanna see! :D

Also, GOOD LUCK WITH THE INTERVIEW! :D I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you :D ♥ xo

Primark is known for its ridiculous prices. You go in and get a million things for £50. And they have hundreds of dorky pants.

But thanks, hon. I think I might need it.

Nothing like a great shopping trip to make a girl feel accomplished! I managed to purchase $180 worth of stuff for $42 last night. I got this great tie to wear on St. Patrick's day. Bought it at Target for $1.

I hope you get this job as well! *hugs*

The outfit sounds like a killer. I hope it helps you feel confident and that you wow them in the interview :)

It's just going to make me feel self-conscious because I don't usually dress like a girl, any more.

But thanks, hon.
