3 parties this upcoming weekend. Friday night he told me "jeans" - uh huh, I'd like to go a little more dressy. Here's some pics. i'm NOT happy with them - I've put a few lbs back on and I can tell where it went... UGH!! First party is at someone's house, so I may have to take my boots/shoes off....

This one is brown leggings with brown boots.

This outfit I plan on wearing on Saturday to the other 2 parties...Red sweater, black jeans with black scrunchy boots.

This is what BF wants me to wear Friday night - he likes this on me.

Here's another favorite outfit. I'd need new shoes with closed toes... Darn... shopping trip.

And a sideways view..

So - give me me your opinion. What should I wear? Any other variations you can think of?

Well Jody, I'm not going to be any help at all. I love every outfit and they all look great on you. I think the jeans would probably be the warmest outfit because the top is long sleeves. I really like the sweater with the leggings too. I like the last outfit also but it looks sleeveless so would you get too cold?

Told you I would be no help at all!!

Hi Linda! The party tomorrow night is at his boss' house so I'm thinking its going to be warm... I can also take a sweater with me to wear.

The ones Sat night will be at houses too... but going from each will be chilly...

Jody, I have to agree with Linda......all the outfits look great on you! I don't think you can go wrong with any of them.

You look amazing in all of them. My favorite is the red with black. I can see why the BF like the jeans outfit. Your figure looks great!

Jody,
  You DO look great in all of them! I think you can't go wrong with any of those outfits. Here's another possibility:

  Could you wear the last pants with a shorter top? One of the things that's great about the jeans outfit is that it shows your skinny thighs and waist. I bet that's why BF loves it so much - it shows your hourglass more than anything else.

  That last pair of pants looks really fabulous on you. I like the rest of the outfit, but I just don't think you need that much length on the top, and it actually hides your shape a bit. A shorter sweater (some sort of cowl neck or turtleneck?) could be perfect; it would also address the casual concern. For shoes with the outfit I'm suggesting, I'd wear something like a ballet slipper, again, more casual.
  Hope that helps!!! :) You look amazing!

Thanks for your input Rosa!! The pants in the last pic are some GAP skinny pants. I'm a little self conscious now because of my thighs - they've ballooned again!! LOL...

I'll see about putting a different top with those pants... see how it looks. Perhaps the brown sweater he likes so well with it? I've got LOTS of shorter sweaters.. I can see what will work.

What he likes about the jeans is the "behind" look - says it makes my butt look great! LOL.. of course WE can't see that!!

Haha! Jody, of course there's something else amazing about your body we couldn't even see! (I'm so jealous!)

Mmm hmm. But you look great. If you're super self-conscious about it, wear a pair of control-top hose underneath the skinny jeans.

Check out this look . The long tops are for those of us who have thighs to hide. Not you!!!

You look great in all of them! I would want to go with one of the trendier outfits more than the jeans too, but that's because I have so many clothes and in up in sweats around the house most of the time!
