Heading to the Ball

I have a big dressy ball to attend for work tomorrow night in New Orleans.  It's the first really formal event (ie Black Tie) I've attended since I started my diet.  So, I had nothing to wear.  And, I had no idea what size I really was or what would fit.

Shopping for me is not fun. I really don't like it.  And, it's even more irritating now because I'm in between sizes most of the time.  Plus, who wants to spend money on an expensive dress that they hope will be too small in a month?

And, let's talk about sleeves.  Why don't they have sleeves on formal gowns -- especially the ones in the plus size section.  Really?  Do we want to see fat arms?  I know you don't want to see mine!

It took me a while but I found something.  It's sleeveless (of course).  But, I found a jacket that worked. 

Anyway, the dress is in a size I feel good about and hopefully makes me look good.  We'll see!
