My Little Black Dress


I did it, I did it, I did it! I can fit into my little black dress. Don't have anywhere to wear it, but Sunday morning when I was getting ready for church, I saw it hanging there in my closet. Since I have lost several pounds lately, I thought I'd just slip it on to see if it fit. The last time I put it on, it went on, but was a wee bit too tight, I looked like I might need to charge a fee for anyone to see me in it if you know what I mean! LOL. But not Sunday. Sunday, it slipped on and draped gracefully, like it was meant to. I just about screamed. I forgot just how pretty it was. WOW!. Unfortunately, it wasn't really a dress I'd wear to church since I dress pretty casual for church, and it looks like a dress you'd wear out on the town or something. So I put on another great little skirt suit, that didn't used to fit either, and it looked great too! What a difference a few pounds can make. Anyway, I know it's probably no big deal to anyone else, but it's been two years in the making and I am thrilled. The last few pounds may not have come off under the circumstances I would have preferred, but hey, they came off! So maybe I didn't do it so much, but life did it for me. And if that's the way it had to be...OK. I'm alright with that. Now, I've got to find a reason to wear that little black number, before it starts getting cool out. Any ideas anyone? LOL
(And no, that's not a picture of it, mine is much prettier...) (WINK)

Woohoo!!! I'm so thrilled for you! I know how much that can do for you being able to fit into clothes that didn't fit before.

So, where and when are we going when we go out on the town??? I think this calls for a girls night celebration!!!

I saw the outfit you wore Sunday and you did look sharp, can't imagine how well the little black dress would look, but I'll bet it'll be great too. Way to go!
