I do admit, my biggest problem is a profound disinterest in all things fashion. Yet, I don't want to look like a complete haggard, old Mom who's given up all hope. So I slave on. I do get a lot of stuff on sale at BR and GAP - and I also get most of my work stuff from the sales at Ann Taylor and Loft - I will keep trying here in Sweden... :) Will have to try Sisters again - sometimes I find good stuff there.<br /><br />@Stacey - Thanks! Ouch on the 1400 sek pricetag - I can imagine if you don't fit the sizing norms it is a real nightmare - I know I have a friend who is a size 44 and the selection of stuff she has to choose from is pretty much aimed at the granny set.Surviving Swedenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10144843041249993603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-338298233588226936.post-33985360922653548852011-06-15T07:24:21.251-07:002011-06-15T07:24:21.251-07:00I have alot of trouble finding clothing in sweden,...I have alot of trouble finding clothing in sweden, I have<br />a fairly large chest size and have issues finding flattering<br />clothing that is not over 1400 SEK per item.<br />Having been raised in Australia with pretty easy going parents<br />and my sister who now lives in India im sure you can imagine<br />the clothing we wore... I am pale skinned with freckles soI like alot of colour and sweden well...they sure do like white and beige and apricot, I really enjoy reading your blogStaceynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-338298233588226936.post-74121632715314311302011-06-15T02:50:43.804-07:002011-06-15T02:50:43.804-07:00That is so funny that you write about your problem...That is so funny that you write about your problems finding clothes that you like here in Sweden. For me it was the same but opposite when we first moved to the states. There I just could not find anything that I liked and used to buy all my clothes when I went to Sweden. Now I would say that I find both clothes that I like here in Sweden and in the US. Here I usually shop at MQ, H&M, Åhlens, and Sisters. I agree with you that Noa Noa has nice stuff but is kind of expensive. I guess you could compare Noa Noa to Antrophology in the US. Nice stuff but a little bit more expensive. In the US I still like to shop at GAP (you can order stuff from there here to Sweden now), J.Crew and Banana Republic. Mabye what you like and don´t like about faishon depends a lot on where one has grown up and what you are used to seeing others wear.Desireehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09597312913386722575noreply@blogger.com
