a bit thinner

If that's a little bit thinner, then it could be an incentive to lose a little. (Assuming losing a little is what you want to do.)

If it's quite a bit thinner, then just sigh and keep the chef instead.

Yeah, the 'a bit thinner' it would take to fit me is well within the realm of what I'm working on losing. I just don't know that I can talk myself into spending a hundred dollars...

Ah, the financial constraints: been there, done that, extremely happy not to be there any more. They're a bastard.


I'm bemused by the description saying 'Women’s sizes: 4 through 16', but the size selector only going to 12.

Well, it's in the "last chance" department, which is why it's on sale and why they don't have all the sizes available. I can wear a 12 when I'm slim, and I do love that jacket...*wibbles*

Presumably that means they won't hold it in stock until my next life, just on the off-chance I'm a girl? *sighs*

No, but if I buy it I'll leave it to your future self. :)

Too late, sadly. They're down to sizes 4, 6 and 8 only.

Ah, what a shame. Even at my slimmest I cannot fit into an 8; my body is not shaped that way. Oh well! :)

Heh. I bet I can talk you into spending a hundred dollars, if you want me to. Honey, it's gorgeous...

It's more a lack of the dollars than a lack of the desire to spend them, I'm afraid. :)

This is why we invented debt, damn it! Besides, it is our patriotic duty to get our countries out of recessionary trouble by spending wildly; haven't you been paying attention to our Glorious Leaders...?

Excellent! In that case, you can buy me the coat. I'll wear it at P-Con. :)

Booteeful! Heck, it's incentive for me to lose a little too! Wearing it to conventions, though, is probably a no-no. Sweat factory, anyone?

I think it'd be worth it. :)

So cute....

We clearly have excellent taste in outerwear. :)

And you have an awesome icon. :)
