Ok so I finally found shoes-very simple but CANNOT beat the price; Nine West evening sandals in bronze gold and silver. Each normally 89.00 at Macys and I got both for....$42.00!

So I am keeping both. Same shoe and my feet look slim in them so they stay.

The dilemna now is the dress. I like the pink silk dupioni one. Pete likes the red dress.(Its deep cranberry but looks lighter in the pic) He says it is 'swishier' because the material molds to my body while the silk dupioni is stiffer and an A-line.

He told me to put it to a vote We converted him ladies!

Which do you prefer?

(IGNORE how rough I look-this was right after the walk today-HOT mess )

1. Fuschia silk dupioni

2. cranberry red 'swishy' skirt with v neck

I like #2...it really shows off your great shape!! I'm always into dresses that show off the waist! You look awesome in both! but for a fancier wedding I guess #2 fits the bill more.

I like #2 as well even if we are in the minority.

I have to say #2 too for the same reason, tho the color and material on #1 are really pretty.

love #1. and LOVE the shoes. maybe i should have went to macys with u, damp sneakers and all. i've been looking for nice silver shoes without a huge heel for sooo long!

Well the heel is high-3 inches BUT Jagruti man..you should have come. They had several on clearance...$21.00 per pair because I had COUPONS! I share well

LOL hanks Donna. I was trying to get into the shower but I was like 'hey I have my clothes off anyway so this is a good time to try on the shoes and dresses cause later I won't want to peel off my Pjs'

And yes this is the most recent cut-cut on mm Wednesday? DAy gefore the GTG and the color was done on Saturday. Went lighter again for the summer.

Thanks girls. Pete is with you on this vote. He is saying he gets the 'executive decision.'

He doesn't like the material of #1 which is what I like for the same reasons he doesn't; it hides more because of the stiffer A-line.

I have gained 7 frickin pounds since I started the meds and its ALL in the same places... I feel #2 clings more which is why he likes it. SO we'll see. If I wear #1 to the wedding I will wear #2 to a nicer dinner out with him-just means we have to actually go somewhere that isn't a diner for once

Thanks girls! You're all betetr than a full-length mirror!
