Anti-puffy shirt
Dear JCPenney/Worthington Clothing Co.,
I don’t blame you. I blame myself for buying your shirt and taking it home, only to have to return it after getting a second opinion (thank heavens for my husband’s honesty).
But I just wanted to let you know – the Pleat detail shirt? It doesn’t look so good on us bigger girls. We like to wear shirts that make our bodies look slimmer, or at least in proportion. We don’t like shirts that make us like we’re wearing shoulder pads, ready to step out onto the football field.
It looks good on Natalie Portman. But not on me.
I appreciate that you offered it in my size. But I just wanted to give you a heads up on this one – there might be a lot of returns.
Thanks for trying,
kilax

Today’s Idiom: the sword of Damocles – any imminent danger
Even though my boss gave me a raise, I sometimes feel like the sword of Damocles is hanging over my head – at any minute, I could be kicked out of there.
