In My Closet--First Purchase

Yes, this was the very first full outfit I bought on my return to dressing, just before Christmas of 2007. It's from Wal-Mart, and consists of a red jersey v-neck top and a black chiffon skirt with a ruffled hemline that falls just below the knee.

I was still experimenting with sizes then (these are both 2X), and while the top is a good fit (especially over my 44C boobs), the skirt was far too loose in the waist. I eventually had it taken in.

It's worn here with natural hose, classic black patent court pumps, and silver jewelry.
