I know the feeling. While purging my closet of tiny beautiful clothes I could never squeeze into again, I found a Chanel jacket that was already tight when I bought it at a sample sale, deeply discounted. I wore it three or four times, then life—and my waistline—changed. I thought of my Pilates teacher, who is smaller than I ever was and would wear it well. I sent the jacket on its way, feeling good about its new life.
Yes, Rosy, I did something similar a few years ago. I think you re right, as we get older, comfort becomes more important to us and we are happier and more accepting of our bodies.

That’s great! I know that feeling. I should probably clean my closet out, too. And my fridge 😬
