AVON Red Ruffle Dress


I'm ordering this dress because I'm getting closer to my Marilyn Monroe shape. I think I'll be able to get into it now, but if I try really hard, I will be sleek in it by Easter. I'm not nearly as small as this model in the photo, but I'm ok with that.  I'm making progress.

It's a great deal from AVON too at $19.99. I hope I love it as much as the dress Mamie bought from me. :-)

I think with a pair of little ballerina flats to hide my toe, it'll be a great dress for summer that I can cinch up if I shrink more.

It's so much fun getting into smaller sizes!

    Wow, CW! That must be the reward for sticking with a weight loss program. (I didn't know you needed to lose weight!) You can be pleased with yourself. You must feel really good! I am happy for you.
  • ninjapirate said on Jan 15, 2008....
         Good for you!  I really like the dress too, I'm thinking of getting it myself.  I think you've earned it though!

    Lioness,
    Thank you.  It's sweet of you to say that.

    hotaka,
    Thank you.  It is my little reward to myself.  I'm not where I want to be, but I'm getting closer all the time.

    ninja,
    Thanks.  We can be stunning together.  If you don't already have an AVON rep, private message me and I'll direct you to my website.

    Mimi,
    Thank you.  Maybe I'll feel sexy if I can find the right kind of shoes to go with it.  :=)

    MMI,
    Thank you.  I think I have really come a long way.  :-)

    queen,
    Thanks.  It's getting time to let the sexy me out.  :=)

    I'm jealous! :[

    Polar,
    Don't be jealous.  I'm not as thin as the model.  It's the first time in years I've been able to get into such a dress.

    Girl, you have no idea how I am struggling with myself at the moment!  Its like since I've decided to try to watch what I eat all of a sudden I MUST eat everything bad in the house, just to get it out of the way. . .how ridiculous is this???!!! 
     
    I'm at a loss :[
  • CreativeWoman said on Jan 15, 2008....
    (((((polar))))),
    I know that exact feeling.  Last year for Lent, I had this big self improvement project to lose weight and I ended up gaining 10 pounds!  It's all a very mental thing with me. Eating healthier is one of the hardest things I've ever had to do. 

    Hang in there.
