4. Oh I already got the new clothes and 100 is only 4lbs away

Mind you mainly it's shirts since I can wear those even as I lose 40lbs (I'm wide shoulder and I love baggy sweaters). Pants I stick with $15-20 Liz Clairborn from JCPenneys because right now they already need replaced.

But still

Today, I am wearing a pair of slightly tighly Grey Elie Tahari slacks I found at the Elie Tahari outlet. I figured I'll still have those for awhile and they do fit and since they were on the final sale with 40% the price was amazing (cheap as those JCP pants). Matching Elie Tahari Mint Green layered tank top that's kinda chiffony (hids the tightness on the top of the pants) - that I found at Saks Off Fifth Avenue on the 75% clearance rack. And a lightweight Banana Republic Dove Grey Cardigan (arms aren't in the best of shape even though I am doing weights). Top it off is the pair of Marc Jacob Black strappy sandal wedges I picked up during Amazon Prime Day for a very very cheap price - it's hard finding size 11 shoes - one area where I will never lose the weight.

Yes I'm a fashion freak but I'm also an outlet/clearance rack/sales shopper. I do not buy clothes that will go out of style next week. I'll have the stuff forever - very classic, ageless look.
