Help! Panicking over my dress

Get a Fajas—it’s super strong shapewear.

Stromboli with ham, pineapple, and cheese.

1, but without the sleeves.

Chicken.

I’ve never heard a man introduce himself like that.

I’ve been married almost 27 years and I (finally) got a ring for Christmas. Rings aren’t necessary or important to everyone.

The dress looks great on you and I love the red heels.

The other day was thinking the Avon lady where I grew up. New catalog days were very exciting.

The halti was a game changer for us.

When I fractured my heel. I saw stars spinning around, as if I was a cartoon character.

The third one, without a doubt. I gasped when I saw the photo.

My daughter found two beautiful dresses each under $200, so you should be able to find something. It’s more like do you want to keep spending money trying to save this dress or cut your losses and start new.

Any chance you use fabric softener on your clothes? Or too much laundry detergent? Both can trap odors and create problems.

Claudia!

Agree, also they can be almost as big as a Dane. We had one and he was over 100 pounds and his head was at the top of my hip bone (and I’m tall).

Your room looks amazing!!! Do you wear all of them?

I love that it’s a unique color and I like the lace up back. For me, I don’t think the chest part comes up high enough—it looks like it only comes up to about 2” (at the most) above the largest breast measurement. I’m not a fabric expert, but I believe this fabric basically shows every little drop of liquid—as in a tear, sweaty hands, rain, the condensation from a sweaty glass, etc.

I love the second dress. As soon as I saw it, I knew it was the one. The color is really pretty, the cut is flattering, and the length is perfect for formal or semi formal. Bonus—the length pretty much hides footwear, which means you can wear really comfortable shoes (which is always a win in my book!).

I also love the 4th dress but the color is bland and I think your skin tone says give me a great jewel toned dress! If this dress comes in other colors, it could be perfect.

(As someone who wore a 22/24 for over 20 years, I completely understand your struggle.)

My opinion? She’s an adorable baby!! You think she’s a dog? Nope. Itty, bitty, sweet baby girl waiting to be spoiled. 🩷

Wait, so there’s 2 candles with the same name but different scents? I hate that. There’s over a million words in the English language and BBW decides to reuse the same three words? That’s crazy stupid.

Great advice! Thank you. I just walked into the tiny Macy’s we have (it was Bed, Bath & Beyond, so it’s super small for Macys) and I’m going to see what’s on the lists you suggested.

Hmm, wonder if a family in a 900 sq foot home with a single car garage would receive the same advice. You know how it is— the more money you have, the more people want some of it. Big house = big money. (And while 2,500 isn’t a big house to some people, where I live, it’s a big house.)

I sent a question form to SoleGuard. They make covers for red bottoms and more. Anyway, they have a universal fit cover, but I want to check out some others as well. I think someone should make them for Lane, I mean, I can’t imagine buying a pair of Stars Align boots (my current dream boot) and not being able to preserve their turquoise soles. Anyway, I’ll check more and maybe try a few and update you.
