I actually just purchased a thin navy blue cardigan and it still has the tags on it. I cannot decide what to wear it with. It was paired with a tank top in the pic (I purchased it online), but they were out of my size. So now I am left with a navy cardigan (my first) and a cute macrame navy tote bag which may be a bit to large for my 5’3 frame. All at a discounted price. I believe the two week return policy is over now. Any advice anyone? I think the material is a little irritating, which is another negative about purchasing online. I have very sensitive skin.

Elizabeth Felts Olmsted I am constitutionally slender. My mother , grandmother, aunts and everyone on her side of the family is very slender and good looking. Family on my father's side are heavier and many of them have tried to skinny shame me - if that's a word. They all want to be slender and yet they think it's okay to criticize and comment on my physique. As I've gotten older I've realized it's jealousy. Any family, friends or strangers that comment on your weight are, most likely, unhappy with something (whether it’s physical or otherwise) in themselves. Happy and confident people don't feel a need to go around trying to make others feel bad. You're so lovely I can't imagine someone making insulting comments to you. But for me, I realize it's a kind of backwards compliment and I think when it happens you should realize they envy you and it's a compliment.
