Someone should have told me a couple years ago not to buy new clothes until after I blew up a bit. Bought a bunch of XL shirts and t-shirts and some loose fitting jeans. None of them fit anymore. Legs are too big for the jeans and the shirts make me look like a douche now.
I shop at JC Penney in their clearance racks for clothes, I buy my t-shirts and polos in the fall, sweaters and long sleeved shirts in the spring. I prefer penney's because I can buy their gift cards online at ~25-30% discount. This makes all my purchases there reasonable. I'm not style driven with clothes, just want something that fits, lasts and is cheap.
I hate the new fad of making jeans tighter and thinner. They fall apart in a few months and nothing fits right. I miss the old levis silvertab baggy jeans. I still have a pair I bought 13 years ago or so that are in decent shape, and they fit!
If I was to try to fit into today's relaxed jeans I'd have no choice but to go up a few sizes in the waist to get them to fit my legs. I hate the feeling of a loose waist and tight legs in pants, drives me up the wall.
