"Wow, you look really nice today"

Yes, those were the first words out of my boss's mouth to me this morning. On the one hand - yay! On the other - nice backhanded complement, I look nice everyday:

Black/white printed wrap dress (I don't remember where I bought it), light gray tights and gray platform heels (Payless - I love that store)

The wrap dress is great for comfort and style - it's very easy to wear! I bought this dress years and years and years ago. The tag says XL but in all those years I've owned it, it's never looked this good. I think its because I can really cinch the tie now aroudn the mid section and don't have that 6-months pregnant look from my belly sticking out underneath.

Normally (at least since I've lost the weight), I don't advocate wearing something in a size (or two) too big. Despite what you think about it "covering" the bad areas, it actually drowns the figure you do have an makes you look bigger than you are. Trust me - I tried to wear the too big clothes to avoid buying new ones. Once I bought pants/shirts/dresses in the right size I started to realize just how small I'd gotten.

PS No post tomorrow. Technically I'm not working, I'm sitting in a class all day so I'm contemplating sweatpants and a hoodie...
