I haven't worn a dress in at least 15 years. Don't even own one.

Today, I bought two pretty summer dresses. One to wear to a wedding in June and the other to a banquet later this summer. Size 12!!!! Holy Moly - can't remember ever being a size 12.

Cleo/Ricki's have an awesome sale on right now. Dresses marked down to $49.99. Everything in the store is 30% off. Great stuff for work and for casual.

I hope the dress you bought for later in the summer will still fit, it's amazing how much our bodies change in a month! Size 12 is awesome!

That's great! I'm the same. Only have worn a dress for weddings. I bought 2 dresses and one fitted skirt and today I am wearing my first dress to work! It feels funny but when I look in the mirror I think it looks good and my family approves! ð?'

That's funny I work in a casual office and never wear dresses either, I have 1 sun dress for the odd day, the girls I work with are all after me to buy some fun summer dresses, but I have trouble with my feet, and if I wear sandles all day my feet hurt. But I just might break down as I'm seriously running out of clothes.

That's awesome!! Like Barb, I love dresses too. I wear them often, especially as the warmer weather hits. I always have. BUT...

I have found two things lately:

1, I can wear heels for hours and my feet/knees don't hurt.

2, I don't have to worry about wearing bike shorts under my dress (or spanx) to prevent my legs from rubbing together/chaffing. It's so freeing!! And so much more comfortable.

Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. Choose happy.
