The Little Black Dress That Could!

Remember how I said that I am going to this thing -- a swanky-sort of event that one would probably get kicked-out of, wearing a hoodie -- and how some of you guys told me how much you hated shopping for anything, other than a t-shirt?

Well, it took me all week - not to mention, an entire tank of gas - but, I finally found the perfect little black dress!

Here it is - my pretty little halter dress by Evan Picone - simple, yet elegant and tres comfortable. It actually feels a lot like I'm wearing a t-shirt!

Seriously, I love the fact that my back will be mostly covered and it fits like a sports shirt, or my favorite black guinea t-shirt!

And the waist has this cute little beaded band that offers up just enough bling, for the occasion!


SCORE! Thank you, Evan-Picone and Jones New York (my second choice) for designing a little black dress, that actually fits women with, you know, left-over baby bumps and boobs, for under $100 and one that even a plain-old Jersey mom (like me) could wear to a swanky-like Hollywood event and STILL feel pretty!

Oh, and how do you like my new glasses?

Thanks, Rusti - although, I'll be wearing my contact lenses with the dress - but, the lady at Lens Crafters talked me into the glasses. Still, they're starting to grow on me, a little ;o)

SQUEEE - you guys are SO great - I wish I could take pack you ALL up and take my BlubHer buds with me.

Thank you for your support, as always.

Oh, and the glasses are Versace - at least, that's what it says. The woman at Eyes First picked them out, for me. I think she gets paid a commission.

Stupid fashion statements.
