Yay... bought this simple but pretty little black dress in a size 12 petite today for a ball I am going to on Jan 20th. So exciting to be in smaller sizes! Keep in mind I actually had gotten up to a 22-24 just a year ago. Can't wait for the 10, 8's... and do I dare dream about a 6!! Bleh.. whatever. It isn't the size it is about how I feel and being healthy. Still happy to be able wear it now. Hopefully it will inspire Dana to dance with me lots!!! Need to find a good necklace to wear with it as well. Something sparkly to match my diamond earrings.

Bought 3 1/2 inch heels to go with it. I'm sure I will be dancing barefoot by the end of the night.

Ugh.. bought some low rise boycut jeans from old navy without trying them on in a size 12. BIG MISTAKE. My butt is way too big for them still. Oh well.. maybe in a few weeks. Still waiting for this dress to get here and hoping... err praying.. it just might fit. If not it is back to do some more shopping.

don't get discouraged, stayce. Old Navy I've always found runs a little bit smaller than other brands.

Ya.. They do a little. I have a pair of jeans I bought last month that just fall right off me from them. It is just hard to judge my size. I really need to try everything on.

Stayce, She speaks the truth, Old Navy does run small

Good luck hun! I'm sure you will knock Dana off his feet when you make your little black dress appearance.

Yup. I dont like them for that. Gap jeans fit me best anyway. Old Navy fits funny in the butt/thigh region.

Dress and shoes arrived. I'm thrilled.. it fits and it looks good. Dana liked it as well.
I'll post pictures after the ball at the end of Jan.

I am going to have to try some Gap jeans. Thanks for the tip.

The person who invented the little black dress should be given the Nobel Prize as should the guy who invented strech pants...
