I have read all the threads here about going into a store, and just telling the clerk "It's for me." Well, sure, sure, sure.
I went into my closest VS yesterday, and was "looking" at a lot of things. A youngish female sales clerk came over and asked if I needed any help, I said "No, thank you, I'm just looking". I noticed a very pretty slip that was just to die for. It was a shade of blue , short, and had some very pretty tan lace. I mean REALLY pretty. I looked at them, and looked at them. I must have been there at least 10 hours (3 minutes), when the sales person came back over and asked if I needed any help. Well, I said, "I'm not sure just what size". She asked "What size is she?" I gulped and said that it was for me. Without batting an eyelash, she pulled out a medium, held it up to me, and said that she thought that a meduim would fit me. "Would I like to try it on?" I said sure, and then said that I was thinking of getting a bra also. she asked "What size are you?" I said I thought I was a 38. She said "What cup size, oh, well, I think that because of your natural body, you should go with a B or C, what do you think?" I asked if she would mind measuring in that I wasn't all that sure. She got out a tape and proceeded to measure me, and I was a 38. She proceeded to get a whole tray of 38s out and brought them to a dressing room. She said that she would put the slip in there also so when I was ready, I could go in and try them on.
I went in and tried on the slip. It was too small. I started to try on a bra, and then she came back and asked "Howsit going?" I told her that the slip was too small, and she said, "Wait a sec and I'll see if I can find a large" She went and found a large, slipped it under the door and said that she didn't think that it was a good color for me, but to try it on anyway. Now this was more like it. the slip fit very nicely. I didn't like any of the bras - too big.
After this, I got dressed back into my drabs and walked out and found her. I told her that she was right, the color wasn't for me. She then said that I should come back in in a couple of days in that they got new shipments all the time. She said that then she would help me find a bra that I liked. I proceeded to go to another section and got a pair of panties with her help and paid for them. Shesaid "Ill see you shortly" and smiled.
By then, I just couldn't take any more of this heaven and left to do the other things that I went to the mall for. I finally started to breath again.
