A Fancy Dress NSV

Yesterday I went shopping for a somewhat formal dress to wear for our formal dining night on the cruise. I’ve never worn a formal dress in my life, so I had fun looking for one!

I was even more psyched when the dress that looked best on me was a size 16. I could hardly believe it. Keep in mind that I was wearing about a 24 or 26 when I started this journey.

Unbelievable.

I sort of felt like I was right out of an episode of makeover week on the Biggest Loser. I looked in the mirror and thought…is that really me?

I can’t wait for that night. To get all glammed up in this super pretty size 16 dress and have a fancy schmancy evening with my handsome hubby.

Oh yeah, it’s a $150 dress that was on super duper clearance for only $40! SCORE!

I will post pictures once we get back, of course!
