I'm delinquent - again - in posting this, mainly because I haven't bought anything new or had any questions lately.

What I have been wearing  a LOT lately are my new mid-calf scrunch boots - they're SO much easier to tuck jeans into. 

So yesterday I had my Ana skinny jeans tucked into the boots with a black long sweater with black belt,  I thought it looked pretty good.

I wish I had a Christmas party to go to where I could dress up - I've got some black dresses hanging in the closet with no where to wear them... I'm going to 2 with BF but he said they're both real casual and jeans are what to wear.  Of course I'll be dressed up a little more than that (since this is the first time I'm meeting these folks and want to make a good impression), but not "black dress" nice.

I was looking in my closet and found a black dress I bought at a thrift store last year for New Years Eve (which I didn't wear) and its one of those dresses with one open shoulder.  I've been seeing a lot of people on TV wearing that style - so I'm like "yea - I've got something fashionable to wear" - but nowhere to wear it too - LOL.. poor me  AND - I tried it on just for sh**ts and grins and it looks awesome... *sigh*.. oh well...

What are you guys wearing and what's new in YOUR closet?

When he said "office Christmas party" - I'm thinking "yeaa I can wear a dress" then when he said its casual - I also have to remember he works for a construction firm... so... pretty much blue-jeans kinda guys (and gals).

 Hey Maria,  you must be in 10's or 12's by now.  I think Santa will be very surprised at what sizes fit you now.  :)

Did I ever tell you that I was raised in Cleveland Heights and University Heights?  I left Cleveland in 1968 when I graduated from HS.

I bought some new tops at the Thrift store this week.  They are all Mediums and all fit.  One says, medium, 10-12.  Are they really 10-12, oh my gosh.  It's hard to believe I might need to start looking at smalls.  16 bottoms still fit but are getting a little big.  Last week I didn't lose any, but the pants are definately looser.
I had a Christmas party last night for the carriage club.  I wore black cords and a black long sleeved T with snowmen.  I got so many compliments on my weight loss.  It was very supporting.  My heaviest friend did ask if I was going to lose any more, I said hell yes.  I am now very, very much smaller than she is.

It took me awhile to get used to wearing them - and I have to wear a long shirt/sweater over them.  I do have on white button up shirt I wear with them that just skims the top of my thighs.  I hope it looks ok - lol, and I wear a belt with it....

Actually, when I'm looking for styles that are "in" now I typically will go to Kohls or Target.  Its hard to find them at the local thrift stores. Some consignment shps may have them...

And at Kohls - the juniors section.... They have a lot of the longer cowl type short sleee sweaters or "dresses" to go over them.  That's where I got most of mine.
