oops...

So when we left FLW we originally had orders to Okinawa where the yearly average temperature is 72 degrees.  I decided to be proactive and toss my heavy sweaters and only held on to a handful of thin sweaters to get me through the "chilly" days in Oki (most of the ones I had were on the old side or would be out of style by the time we moved back to colder temps).  Well, as you know, things changed (silly me, I should have known better) and here we are living an hour outside of Tokyo where they have an average of 4 months with lows in the 30's...yeah, I'm going to need those sweaters now!  Right now, the dollar to yen rate is so awful, that I'd rather not shop on the economy, so it looks like I'll be shopping for some new sweaters online.  Any suggestions?!?!?!

PS, this does not apply to me, but if your spouse is deployed, you may want to take advantage of this offer!

I did the same thing. I got rid of a ton of sweaters, keeping the ones that I wear the most and the thin ones. Too bad you didn't end up in Okinawa!

I've found a lot of cute ones at Old Navy lately...and they're inexpensive :)
