Hmm, I wonder how difficult it is to modify men's broadcloth shirts to make them slightly smaller and more fitted.  There are so many more men's shirts that I like than women's in most thrift stores.  Yesterday wasn't a very successful clothes-shopping trip. 

I wore men's button-down oxfords throughout high school without altering them, but that was as part of a uniform and I didn't care much about how I looked.  These days I prefer not to look like a shapeless blob, thanks. I should order that replacement bobbin-case for our sewing machine so I can experiment with darts.

Now, pants:  do I dare just start stocking up on Levi's 515 bootcut jeans from ebay and never go jeans shopping again?  I've already gone through 2 pairs and have 2 in current rotation. It's tempting.
