Sizing!!! Grrr!

[silver]

Well, here's the thing...I am a seamstress. I've actually taught myself to sew on the lycra/polyester fabrics. but it's a bore. I'd much rather be spending my time riding. I've altered almost every jersey that I have. I've remade shorts.

but some things just don't lend themselves well to altering. Jeans are one example. it's very difficult to work with and never looks right because usually they are dyed/stonewashed after being made, so that the new seams don't look right.

a cycling jacket......too overwhelming.

You can't make things longer.....

I think that there is no perfect body. That's a myth!!!!! but there is such a thing as a fit body and that's what we got!!!

blah...blah...blah.....I'm being really negative....looking at the glass half empty, sorry, there are much worse things in the world.

thanks for letting me vent and for the suggestions on manufacturers.

You could just wrap yourself in a foulard rebozo.

Silver's getting her dictionary.com exercise tonight! - exclaiming "Veronica must be drinking!"

[Veronica]

I am not bibulous. But I do have a proclivity to disport with words.

Do you want something with a capuche?

Trying to avoid association with the negative and embarrasing history of our deep south hometown, we prefer to avoid anything with a capuche!

There's this great big long word that means abbot, but I can't think what it is now. My brain is a cesspool of bon mots and malatropes natating around.

But just a plain, wool hoody would keep Silver warmer.

what are you imbibing tonight? LOL!!

I do have two authentic saris. I've worn them both. Maybe Mr. can dig up pics of me. unfortunately, they do not meet any of my desired characteristics, wicking fabric, body hugging with giving "pit-choke", long enough to not leave gaps of skin showing between the top and bottom.
