    Good call, it does look great. I totally bought a yellow shirt last night based on feedback here.  

  • imagemashedpotato:

    SB, I love that dress.  Katie, cute top and the color is great on you.

    I tried adding more color today.

    top and cardigan from TJ Maxx, pants from I'm not sure, probably Kohl's or TJ Maxx

    OMG! Fantastic! I love the shirt!! Love you in color!!

  • You're looking even more svelte than I remember TSD!  How much have you lost with Ms. Jenny?

  • aw, you look cute and funky today TSD. it IS difficult to take a picture of yourself in the mirror. i'm always disturbed at how the camera/mirror makes my butt look even bigger than it looks usually. and it's hard to show your face and be sure you're not cutting half your body off.

    Dress- motherhood

    Cardigan- Target

    OK, so Hezz hated this cardigan on me last week. She said it hit wrong (it was a white one). But I don't know what to do and need halp. Many of my things are sleeveless and I cannot wear sleeveless to work. And since it's generally hot here, I need something not heavy to wear over my outfits. Can someone suggest something better?

  • imageChristinS:

    HA! Christin, it's the damn self portrait. In that mirror in that photo I DO look skinny! I don't know what the story is with the optical illusion. But I've lost 11 lbs since Dec 4. I've had like 3 challenging weeks as that cheery a-hole puts it and they were more recent. Up .08 oz or 1 lb here or there. But 11 overall. 10 to go. And it's SO HARD! I ate a box of jellybeans in the car last week like I was Meredith Baxter Birney in a Lifetime movie! I swore I was only going to eat the "serving size". Yeah.

    Thanks. I'm not trying to show my face til after the botox party on March 4! You look cute today too. I like the blue shirt.

  • I'm no fashion icon or anything winger, but I like the cardigan. 
  • Winger, I actually like the cardigan with that dress (love the print by the way).  I think the issue is that you had a long solid top the other day, and the cardigan length looked a little off with it.  With the empire waist on that dress, the cardigan looks the right length.

  • SB- you need to come help me accessorize. Aren't you due for a Houston trip?

    katie- that cut of bolero is really slimming on you

    Mashed- you are the incredible shrinking woman. Each picture you look smaller

    moo- your boobs look good today

    HT- it looks like you found god. He is somewhere in the recessed lighting. Does that make God gay? What would the Catholics think?

    nov- those shoes are hot

    Wendy,- that reminds me of the cardigan you bought on our Dallas GTG. Wasn't that yellow? You look good in yellow. and lol at that dress

    christin- why are their ovaries on your shirt? Are you announcing your pregnancy?

    TSD- please be teaching the barbazon class on self portraits. You do the flattering angle so well. I think I remember that shirt from another picture. I like it.

     

  • i think your cardigan goes well with the dress today winged. i don't remember the outfit hezz disapproved of so i don't know what to compare it to. you look nice! and a little suprised.

    I agree with Christin, the cardigan works with this dress.

  • OK, I see what you are saying. That makes sense. Now I just need to find something else to go with that other top.
  • I like everyone better in colors! Christin, I wouldn't think of wearing those colors because they're just not in my closet, but on you they look so bright and springy. Most everything I own is in the blue/purple/fuscia families.

    Wendy- I definitely think you look better in the shorter stuff. The first pic is perfect. The stripes for me, are a no go on almost everyone. Not a fan.

    Winged- I don't mind the cardigan because you're pregnant. If it was longer, I think it would look like a sack. I love the skirt? dress? the bottom half.

    Moo- I love the dress. And you're always so dressed- I'm impressed by all your effort. I'd never wear a skirt/dress to any work and tights, even though I love the look of tights. I'm not a fan of the sweater but maybe because it's not a color I like. I would've liked the dress on it's own. Unless you're cold.

     

  • TSD, I thought you looked great when we saw you a few weeks back. I think you look great in your pic today. Winged, that cardigan looks good to me.

  • Winged, you would think!  We're on travel restriction though so I don't expect any trips longer than a day anytime soon.

    BUT my cousin is getting married on April 1st in Austin.  I think we'll be stopping in Houston on Friday night to break up the drive.  If you aren't too busy with the wee babe we'd love to see you.  but I totally understand if you can't.  you will have your hands full!

  • Wing-Ed, it's the same cardigan (and dress) that I brought in August. 
  • I think everyone looks great. SB I love the dress. You should wear dresses more often. Nov, you look very slim in that outfit so it doesn't appear that the sweater is unflattering. Wendy you have inspired me to wear a brighter color today (I'm not dressed yet).

  • TSD, you look great as always!  I try to do your barbizon modeling stance sometimes but I just end up looking constipated.

  • Top -- Macy's
    Jeans -- Old Navy
    Shoes -- stolen from Nelly's closet
    Cramps -- not pictured but definitely present
     
    SB -- I really like your dress!  It's super cute.  I'm not a big fan of the jacket over it, but what do I know?
    Katie -- Love that top on you.  It's a flattering cut and color.
    Mashed -- I swear, you are getting taller and skinnier in every photo.  Eventually you're going to be 30 feet tall and 2 centimeters wide.
    Christin -- your happy OOTD expression is back!  I missed it yesterday.

  • Winged, I agree with Christin about the cardigan. It works with this dress, but not so much with the other shirt. You need something longer for that one.

    I'm too lazy to leave the reference desk and go take a pic, plus I kind of look like shiiit, so use your imagination:

    Too-large black pants that are falling off my waist to a lovely spot right below my pooch and causing a muffin top while simultaneously giving me droopy ass.

    Cobalt blue t-shirt and scarf from last week that I didn't even bother to tie in the cute way.

  • imageNovemberrocks:
    TSD, I thought you looked great when we saw you a few weeks back. I think you look great in your pic today. Winged, that cardigan looks good to me.

    November- your shoes are fabulous. I could never wear them in this lifetime but I covet your cute feet.

    Cali- I love the red. I love that kind of look.

    Here is my necklace today. We sell them. I steal stuff from my store all the time. And Winged you've probably seen my shirt 100x because I wear it once a week. I think I wore it under my sweater to Rachael Ray or to see Taylor Armstrong.

    Dress, Banana. Cami, ATL. Shoes, Banana. Backseam nude hose, Nordy's. No accessories, as I was late. It needs a necklace or something. Oh well.

  • kb, you look amazing.

    Thanks!  I actually switched the jacket to a black cardigan I keep at my office when I got here, so maybe you're psychic.  I thought it was a little more flattering.

  • KB -- what color is the backseam?  The same nude color as the nylons?

  • It's a dress TSD. It has a black cotten tank top and the bottom is a really flowy light material. It's so comfy.

    Here is a close up of the pattern since so many people have commented.

    I am thinking after the baby of getting the bottom cut off and turned into a skirt because I love the pattern so much.

  • No winged, those are flowers.  Not ovaries.  KB - you look smashing.

    Yep! It's very subtle.
