Don't get me wrong...I'd love to have a closet full of new clothes.

I think you look great! I also think that skirt is really pretty!

I know how you feel though. I am getting married but not wearing a wedding dress because it is a very informal ceramony and it took me forever to find something to wear! I went to at least 10 different stores that all the sizes were to small or ugly! I fianlly found a white blouse and a light pink skirt.

I think you look great though!

You look really nice! You are not that big either, and if I were you I wouldn't feel bad at all. I am surprised you are so critical of yourself.


I am having the same problem when I go to stores. I hate seeing myself in the dressing room mirrors, especially when nothing fits, or if they fit, then don't look good. I like ordering clothing online. Through my shopping experience I have learnt what will fit me the best. I know which brands and which sizes are the best option for me. Like I know that DKNY almost always fits me nicely. Also, lernercatalog.com has really nice selection of clothing in big sizes, yet I don't like their shoes or accessories, so I always buy clothes only from that website. I am not too wealthy either, but can afford buying clothing quite oftern. I never buy anything that is regular price, I always buy when items go on sale and also I always subscribe for coupons and find some discounts

I think that color blue of the skirt looks good on you! You know, I have gotten inspiration from that show "What not to wear." I try to use clothes I have and mix and match to what is suppose t look good on a size like me too. I do have clothes that don't fit me like a few dresses and skirts that I hope to fit in when I loose at least 30 lbs and keep going! Watch that show if you get where you live. It is on TLC. It has also helped me show off the better parts of me. Keep your chin up!

Sarah you look absolutely TERRIFIC in this outfit! I love the color of the skirt and the awesome white blouse. I think it was worth the depressing shopping tour :) I guess we've all been there when it comes to clothes shopping. I don't need to add much there.. but hey imagine what you would feel like 38lbs heavier. Enjoy your time at the wedding.. you look great! (and hey where have you been for the past few weeks?)
