I told myself this year shall be the Year of No Impulsive Shopping. Yeah, that is actually one of my resolution for 2009, just don't laugh at it! But I cannot help myself fom jumping at a good bargain last Saturday afternoon. Imagine - a pair of trousers by one of my favourite local labels, pretty fabric, with interesting details, and best of all, going at more than 50% off! Good heavens!
This particular retailer has its own size category system i.e. they go by size 1 to 4 for tops and bottoms. So being totally clueless, I gave my measurements to a saleslady and she recommended me to try the Size Two. I had a go at the fitting room, but it was so loose that it's not funny. I had to get a Size One, to (mine and) the saleslady's disbelief .
This is the first time I have gotten a pair of trousers with measurements in kindergarten scale. What happen to the usual empirical inches system? Although "Size One" doesn't mean anything to me, my girlfriend cannot help ranting that I am a Size One-r. Just don't ask what size she had gotten for herself.
Number 1 - Goldfrapp
