I've been completely lusting after black maxi dresses this summer. But since most maxis have such itty bitty low-cut tops, I have to pass on most of them. Fortunately I found this one at Fashion Bug.
Granted, I still have a good bit of cleave going on, but at least I can slide by without a cami underneath.
And I'm reaaaaaally hoping that this dress looks, uh, less maternity, on me in person. No, I'm not pregnant. Just weighted down (ha, pun!) with almost fifteen pounds of newlywed weight. Yesterday I finally took the plunge and stepped back on the scale for the first time since last May. Eeep. And there's the downfall of THE DRESS, my friends. When worn right, they're usually excellent at camoflauging gains because you don't have that pesky muffin top problem like you'd have with pants.
Lesson learned. :-/
I love that dress. I just got a black maxi-dress from Old Navy the other day, but I don't know when I'll wear it because it's strapless. =/
ReplyDeleteAnd, I think you look great, but if you feel like getting crazy I highly recommend Zumba - it's really fun, doesn't even feel like working out. I bet there are places in your locale that offer it, but I go in Jersey Shore =)
Thanks, T!
ReplyDeleteI have been wanting to try Zumba for months, but I'm reluctant to spend money in it considering I've been paying for an unused gym membership for 13 months! Luckily my new job is RIGHT next door to my gym, so I will be going back. The guilt would be too much.
