I need a new camera but I have a good chance of winning one at the Slumber Convention in March :)

I already took the dress off before checking the pics so they're fuzzy. Sorry, but I like it that way cause it distorts my distorted flabby arms! Can someone flip & shrink this?

Paula, nope, we aren't wearing masks to the formal but I haven't put on a face or hair yet. Hey, there's an idea for getting to work on time, just wear a feathered mask.

I have to hijack my own thread for a second. Chris was looking over my shoulder and saw a screen name and said, "WHO? ROAD QUEEN?" I've told him about all the banded biker babes before, but it just now registered in his coconut so he wants to know when you'll be here. Celest? Asphalt? Nana? Open invite!

And thanks for the compliment! I'm going to keep my camera on fuzzy mode from now on!

Now, where does an Amazon get a onezie strapless girdle?

Well... my favorite is Frederick's of Hollywood. Sexy and plus-size. Lane Bryant (online store not online catalouge) is the next best. I've seen strapless body shapers at both recently.

Hold on --I've got two dresses borrowed from a friend that I can pass on.

One is long black velvet, sleevless, round neck with a slit up the front--column style It is a size sixteen. You and I have just about the same stats--you are probably smaller in the boobs than me. I got tons of compliments on this dress.. Very comfy dress. I wore it to the companies Christmas party. The other is black with a full tafetta skirt. It has a black velvet top, sleevelss also. If you'd like, I can take some digital photos tonight and forward them on.

Thanks, Sal, but I bought the plum one over the weekend. However, I never went to the prom, never had a wedding dress, never did formal too well. Now that I fit into a pretty dress, I think I'll start a collection. I'm taking any and all plus size formal wear! I'll rent them out, or play dress up, or put them on my husband for (let's not go there.)

You look great...we are almost the same weight but I don't look THAT good....damn I wish I was taller. 228 just isn't as lean looking at 5'2 as it does at amazon heigth....LOL...I am frigg'n jealous...that's it I am going in to get stretched ..lOL

Thanks for the invite, I plan on riding to the Bash this summer..can't wait to meet you and hubby and everyone else.
