Which Dress?

Danica was "shopping" for eveningwear over on her blog and it reminded me that (Eek!) I've got to start shopping for a semi-formal dress for my class reunion. Oy vey! I hate shopping for dresses. Especially fancy pants dresses. But I popped over to the JCPenny website and took a peek. Here are two choices. Which is ya'lls fave?

dress one

dress two

I'm sort of leaning towards dress one since it has the ruffles in front to camoflauge the belly but I don't know. Or I might see if someplace else has more choices. I really don't want to put out that kind of money on a dress I likely won't wear again hopefully won't be ABLE to wear much longer after. You know, cuz it'll be too big? hehehe

I like dress1, but I'd rather see it on YOUR body. :D It's always nice to feel hot in a dress. I've got one for my 30th b'day which is coming up darn quick. YAY! :D Mine is a red halter.

I like dress 1 because it shows a little leg and I think she looks more hour glass figured in it. However, dress 2 would be fun to dance in. :D

I'm casting my vote for dress two; the ruffly front of dress one just doesn't do it for me and although it might look cute on the model, the ruffle may lie a bit differently on you. Plus, dress two could be worn for church events whereas I don't think you'd want to wear the ruffle to church.

Good points, Heather. I hadn't thought about the ruffle laying differently on me. Wish they had these dresses in my size it the STORE so I could try 'em on. I suppose I could order both and send back the one I don't like! hehehehe

Sara~I doubt I'll feel hot in anything I wear. I usually feel frumpy no matter what. I like the leg and hour glass of the first one, too.

Oh, how I doth hatest makething decisions! LOL I wish I could just go in my jeans and t-shirt. I'd feel more comfortable, anyhow. hehehehehe

I like number 2. It's more flattering and smooth. I've noticed that if I wear anything with ruffles, they make me look twice as big as I really am.

You might look for something with rouching at the waist and bust. I've found that rouching makes the waist look like a waist. :)

I'm Lost

Boy.  Last night was the most intense 2.5 hours of my LIFE. Well, the part of my life that I relegate to television viewing, anyway. Last night, as you may have heard, was THE END for LOST. If you haven't been watching it for the past six years, what were you doing with your life? LOL No, I know. It was one of those things you were either fully emersed in or you didn't want to expend the energy it took to follow it. Because it did take a lot of energy to follow it. And as much as I was held captivated by it, I am really too stupid to really full grasp it. No, seriously. I've read the discussion boards. I've followed other blogs about it. And I'd always be like, "Why didn't I catch that?" or "I completly missed that." My brain is merely too simple to comprehend all the little mysteries and tie-ins and connections that were hidden throughout six seasons of this show. It was no different last night. Honestly, the finale was gripping an...

Me and the boob tube

Ever met someone who is passionate about her TV shows? Well, if not, you have now. Yeah, I'm probably fairly sad with how involved I become with some shows but believe me...I know some folks who are a LOT worse than me. Just trust me on this. I have maybe a handful of shows that I watch without fail whenever they're on and set my VCR to tape if I'm out. (Yeah, I still have a VCR...and I will until they no longer make 'em) Monday night is Medium night. Tuesday night is BB6 in the summer Charmed on TNT in fall. Wednesday is Lost and Alias (in regular season anyway) Thursday night is BB6 in summer and Will and Grace in fall. Friday night sucks since they cancelled Joan of Arcadia. Saturday night is BB6 in summer and Trading Spaces. Sunday night is Desperate Housewives and The 4400 in summer. Everyday things are Gilmore Girls on ABC Family, 30 Minute Meals on Food Network and Bold and the Beautiful. Last night, of course, was BB6. Now, I'm not one to enjoy many reality ...

Ten Things That Make Me Happy Today

Image
1.) Chuck . Chuck makes me very happy. I'm still flying high from the time I spent with him last night. Seriously, it's like the second Zachary Levi walks on screen and gives that trademark smile my heart goes all gooey in my chest and my lips curve up all dreamy smile-ish and for that one hour each Monday night I'm on cloud nine. Pitiful, no? 2.) Her. 'Nuff said. 3.) My friends. All of 'em. Ms. B who I only get to see once a month and chat on the phone every few weeks. E who talks me into field trips to Starbucks so that we can blame each other for being bad. Trix who hated the way Medium ended, too. (And always sends me the awesomest handmade cards.) BFF who calls once a month to update me on the ever shifting drama of her life. (She's doing much better, by the way. Goes back to work next week.) Jen who  once--in a round about way--compared me to the awesome Pioneer Woman. (And who's love story to her fireman still gives me hope that true love real...
