Last year (when I was skinnier) I bought a LBD for a halloween costume. That halloween, I never ended up wearing it, or even going out. Then, I planned to wear it as a New Year’s Eve dress. Again, I didn’t do much of anything for New Year’s last year so the dress went unworn yet again.
Fast forward some-odd pounds and a year later and I still have yet to wear the dress. For the longest time, I thought it wouldn’t fit. It quickly became associated with my weight gain shame. But I couldn’t get myself to give it away. I’d never even worn it. For the last couple days, my friends and I have begun planning our NYE 2012 plans.
Being the broke girl that I am, I was dreading having to find a dress to wear. This morning, while cleaning my room, I pulled it out of the depths of my closet to show my roommate what I would wear to NYE if I could fit in it by then.
To see how far I had to go, I tried it on… *drumroll* and it FIT! I zipped it up all by myself!
