Why Junior Sizes are annoying
On Monday, I went shopping with my mother for a dress to wear at Thanksgiving. Two things first:
- I absolutely hate shopping-despise it...avoid it at all costs!
- Secondly, I only went because I NEEDED and wanted a dress-I wouldn't have gone otherwise. I swear!
First we went to TJ Maxx-no luck there. Then, we went to Kohl's. "Kohl's always has dresses Sweetie," my mom said to me "we'll definitely find something, I know so!" Right...sure. Kohl's didn't have any dresses at all, so that was out of the picture. We went to Macy's next. (One thing I don't like about Macy's is that it always reeks of perfume. YUCK!) Anyway, on the first floor, there wasn't any clothes except men's, so we asked the store manager about where Junior Sizes were. "Right up on the second floor. Use the escalators-they're right over there." He pointed to his left. " 'Kay, thanks," my mom said, and we hurried up the escalator, towards the Juniors Department. "Wow," I breathed, "those dresses are SO beautiful. We'll find a dress here, right?" I asked excitedly. "You'd certainly think so, wouldn't you?" My mom said to me. But as we continued to search for dresses, what she said hit me. You'd certainly think so, wouldn''t you? But I continued to shop with her, riffling through racks and racks of dresses. Finally, I saw the perfect one. Or ones, should I say. I'm not going to go in detail, but it twirled and twisted whenever I moved-or at least, it looked like it would have. But with just my luck what happens? The dress's zipper won't go up- translation? It didn't fit! I was so upset that I started to cry. I know I was acting like a baby, but at the time, it was a total tragedy-I'm not kidding! I was weeping so loud that the store manager had to personally come up to us and ask if I was okay. Afterwards, we left the store. Later on, my mom pipes up and says "Honey, let's just go check one more place." And so I went in, knowing this wouldn't have a dress for me, either. But just as I was about to lose hope, a salesperson came up to us and gave us a purple dress in my size. I slowly and very reluctantly moved towards the fitting room. But I got a nice suprise that day. Not only did that dress fit, it twirled and twisted as well or even better than the other dress! It's color was amazing on me...the dress was in every way possible perfect! For the rest of the day, a smile remained on my face.
It had been a great day.
