Puma Girl

I went out yesterday and bought a new one-piece swim suit for doing laps at the gym. I fell in love with it! Not only because is the same size of my last one, but also came in my favorite colors - black and purple.

As I was walking out of the dressing room, I saw a cute black Puma workout pants with rose colored accent strips on the side. I love Puma and have purchase tons of their stuff, but never looked at the red tags attached to them before. So while waiting for roommie to get ready so we could have our first meal of the day I decided to entertain myself by reading them. It was the evening mind you and I hadn't eating all day.... so maybe I was a little loopy, but these gave me a good laugh!

Their trade mark saying is "Helps-You-Look-Good."

Suitable for:
Standing at the bus
A fun night out
Serious sporting use
Meeting the Ex for tea
Whatever

And then there is one with four picture and a saying under it
Picture of a Heart - "Love your neighbor" (aww!)
Picture of a leaf - "Eat more greens" (true)
Picture of a car driving of a cliff into water - "Cheer up it might never happen" (hahahaha!...I needed a good laugh)
Picture of a water drop - "Wash this when dirty" (duh!)

That's creative! I love reading the descriptions on the labels of VitaminWater for the same reason. Those copywriters are geniuses.

Like you commented on my blog earlier, we DO have a lot of koinkidinks! When I went to PacSun to get my bikini this weekend, my eye caught some of their sales. Jeans were on sale, AND they actually carry the "short" length! So I bought 2. I was also overjoyed I fit into a size 5. I had gotten to 9/10 a few years ago!! And currently my jeans are 7s.

Congrat on going down on sizes! That must feel SO good!!!

Well, it does depend on the clothing manufacturer. Like I can still cram my fat ass and thighs into size 2/3 petite pants from Express. So the numbers don't really mean as much as they used to. The new industry term is called "vanity sizing." Women will buy something if it's a smaller number than they expect. (I guess you and I are examples. Haha.)

Cindy - I can't even image fitting into a 2/3. The close to a one-digit, pant size number I have gotten into are 9's and that felt sooo good! But this girl gots some hips, so that's as low as a number as I can fit in.

Jess - Yup, that was on the tag. Now I am gonna start reading all my tags

You want to see me in a one-piece? It's not as exciting as a two-piece . . . but let me see what I can do :)
