Oh My Gosh! I'm in a dress, a short dress. I am usually a jeans kind of girl but it is too dang hot out here during the summer to wear jeans. I absolutely hate shorts so I thought I would try this dress and I am so in love with it. It hides what you want to hide and is so adorable. Since my legs rarely see the sun they are translucent. I had to pack on the sunless tanner for this dress. This dress is great if you want to hide a tummy, not too short and covers the stuff we don't want showing. It is a little see through so make sure to wear a slip that doesn't cause static cling. I originally purchased this dress for $38 on sale but then got a price adjustment when they went on sale again for $25, whoop whoop. I love a great deal so I bought the striped one also. I can't recommend this dress enough for us over 40 gals. I'm almost 41 and this dress makes me feel so good and doesn't give the appearance of trying too hard. I am also average sized with a booty and not the tightest skin. If you would prefer a little more length just order a size up. This one is a small so the dress runs big. 7 years ago I never would have had the confidence to wear a dress like this even when I was a size 6. This dress is such a symbol of how far I have come. Yes, I still have insecurities but I have overcome a great deal of them. This June I am coming up on my 1 year post explant surgery. Healing emotionally and physically has been rough at times but I feel better and am amazed at how happy I am to have the real me back. I think something happens to you when you go through hard times. You just don't care about the little things anymore and are just happy to be alive and have another day. To be alive and well is a huge confidence boost. Just the fact that we have been given another day is something to rejoice about. The fact that my legs still work regardless of how firm they are is something to rejoice over and feel confident about. So the next time you are in the dressing room feeling depressed about what you see. Remember what your body is capable of and that you are beautiful. Love & Hugs, Chrissy

White Dress (Here) high end similar (Here) Black option (Here) Similar (Here) | Pumps Calvin Klein This has got to be the most flattering white dress ever. It complements your curves and is just lovely. I have been eyeing this dress for some time now waiting for it to go on sale and as soon as it went on sale it quickly went out of stock. I was lucky enough to get my hands on it and am so glad I did. It runs super big, this is a size small and I normally wear an 8-10 in dresses. I usually shy away from white dresses for fear of looking too big but this dress is the exception. I told my hubby he needs to take me out so I can wear this. You will feel so elegant in this dress. It stays off the shoulder and with some spanks does not reveal what you don't want seen. This dress is now 30% off but sizes are limited. I have linked some similar dresses above, some high end and some more budget friendly. If you want to feel sexy again why don't you try a dress like this. It's a huge confidence boost when you feel sexy, and sometimes that can get lost in the day to day of our lives. Wear it to a fancy dinner or go see a play. If you don't have a date take your best girlfriends and wear it for a night out on the town. Feeling your best is priceless and what better way to feel your best but in a fabulous dress. Love & Hugs, Chrissy

The other day at Sephora I was given a perfume sample of Chanel No. 5. This was the perfume my mom would wear when I was growing up. I took one whiff of that sample and the tears started to run down my cheeks. You see, my mom passed away many years ago when I was 18. This perfume instantly filled me with an overwhelming feeling of loss but also with a feeling of her presence as if she just walked in the room. How I wish I still had my mom. It is so funny how much I am like her now. She used to love wearing pumps with jeans and boy, do I love wearing that combo. I hate getting my hair messed up. My kids always laugh at me because I cover up my hair at theme parks so it doesn't get wet on rides. Like mother like daughter. Mothers are the heart and soul of their family and on this beautiful day called Mother's day make sure she knows how much she means to you. Each moment you have with her is precious. Mothers are the most fierce, amazing women in the world. And moms I hope you know you are the BEST MOM EVER! Love & Hugs, Chrissy |
