Dressies!

Ok, so I was really anxious to get some good photos of these two dresses. I was out all day and got home later than I had expected to. Basically, I look like a hot mess. But I threw the dresses on and made Mike take a few photos for me....


Clearly, this dress is too small for me. Super bummer. I'm absolutely in love with it. I'm going to be putting it up on Etsy eventually.
Also a bit snug. Let me just lose 15lbs real quick....
Aaaand here's a purse I purchased along with the dresses.


Well, there you have it. Those two dresses are probably the two best finds I've come across in the past few months. I'm bummed that they're too small for me to be functional in. Speaking of which....BACK TO THE GYM THIS WEEK! I've been slacking so much these past few weeks. I was so busy with my little craft projects/christmas gifts, that I just couldn't find the time to hit the gym. On top of that, I ate a ridiculous amount of cookies. After reading Tieka's post , I'm thinking about joining weight watchers! Everyone I've ever known who has been to WW, has lost a good amount of weight. I don't want to be a size 2, BUT I have gained a few pounds over the past few years that I'm ready to shed. I'm heading to bed early tonight so that I have enough energy after tomorrow's 11 hour work day to work out!

  1. you, you, you are the beautiful one!
    Too bad we don't live near, or else we could fill the void of girl friends in our lives haha.

    If you want to exercise but don't have time or money for a gym, there's this neat (and kind of funny) exercise video called Walk Away the Pounds. I've been doing it because I can't afford a gym and just want to feel active ha, and the videos are pretty good! They're really easy but definitely get you breathing and I get pretty exhausted sometimes haha. I think you can watch one on youtube. (:
