Ho Hum

I have two pieces I'm dying to wear. The only problem is they're the most unflattering things I own. Generally chunky, thick material doesn't do much for the curvaceous woman. And on top of curvaceous, I'm petite! So the material swallows me...But they were hand made in France specifically for my mother when she was around my age. Now they are mine and sit in my closet untouched. Whatta ta do...?
So I'm having a rather hard time dealing with "the wants" right now and these are some of the biggest tormentors...I'm aware that these suits are all the rage and I could pick one up for $40 anywhere, but I'm on the hunt for legit.
