Will the “nipped in” look give me the illusion of having a waist, because I don’t have one?

Well, not all nipped-in things are flirty, regardless of what Mabel says. The nipped-in tailoring gives you a waist, which I prefer. I’m not a fan of boxy cuts; they’re not flattering on many people. No matter what your size, it’s always looks better to have clothes tailored to your shape, rather than oversized (or too small), shapeless clothing.
Hello Cathy friends! Happy Friday! Happy early Easter to those who celebrate! Have a great day, all!

Wow, Cathy got it right for a change. Flirty and office should never go together.
Yesterday’s sunshine has been followed by even more sunshine and temperatures above freezing (sorry about the snow yesterday lindz.coop). But even better than the sunshine yesterday was the fact that I finally scored appointments for the Pfizer or Moderna vaccine – 1st shot next Friday and the second on July 30 (that is a long wait!). My wife was called by our health center yesterday to arrange an appointment for her for the AstraZeneca vaccine (which I should not have). So just maybe we might get to see Mickey this fall!
Have a good Friday today!

An example of sales … not at its finest. Ugh. [Eye-roll], anyone?
HI, MOM. Happy Friday, Clan.

Same as you summerdog…I have never had a waist, no matter how thin I was (and I was pretty thin when I was dancing all the time). The nipped in look just makes me look bulky.
