This means ...I'm tall with a short torso and waist. This means that my legs sort of start at my neck. It can seem odd to some folks because I look a lot shorter sitting down than I do standing up. All this to say, finding pants that fit (when unpregnant I'm a size 16/18) and that are long enough is a crying affair. I try to avoid buying pants, tights, panyhose.

If I'm going fancy, I'm going skirt, because I am all butt, hip and thigh.

The cotton V-neck baby cable sweater? I have it in three colors. A friend of mine has it in two, I think. We both look fabulous in it, even though our bodies are totally different—I have shortish arms and big boobs, my friend is skinny and small-busted with super-long arms.

Alas, we have no F&T in LA. <BR/><BR/>And brown pants are perfect for sneaking in color; wear them with the right blue or pink yes, pink-not baby pink but a full bodied, almost red, fuschia. Sometimes the right burgundy looks really really good with brown pants too. yay new pants.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
