Hi Wonderful Fabbers,

I feel like I am in the confessional... forgive me Fabbers but it has been 6 days since my last outfit post....

I't s been a very full week with my neice's wedding at which I fainted just after they said 'I Do". I am fine and addressing an ongoing struggle with my iron levels Work is undergoing a department restructure which may involve (not good) changes to my role, and I have started looking for another job. DH has been working 24/7 on a project, that thankfully will end in another week but there has just been no time for anything extra.

But just to prove to you that I have been getting dressed daily, here is today's offering.

This is a new dress but it does look a lot like one I already have:) That one is being moved on. This one is a better quality, the neckline is a better length cowl and fit and it is not a racer back (the other was) - love racer backs but feel I need more coverage.

Our weather is about 20 today. At this temperature, I find I can cover my arms or my legs but not both. I realise this may appear seasonally confused by I like it. Dress worn over leggings and booties. Looking recently at the AllSaints on line there was a lot of sleeveless outfits but with heavy-ish looking knits. I figure if they can do it, so can I:)

One thing I want to share is that I realise looking at these pics how much YLF have helped me a develop a more healthy thinking about my body. This dress does accentuate my shape and in particular my hips but where as once I would have looked at the pics and thought I can't wear this, I need to 'hide' my hips, I find I am now very much at peace with myself and no longer place myself under pressure to try to always 'look' thinner. Of course I still want things to be flattering but I no longer associate thin = flattering, with regard to myself. Yay Angie.. and Fabbers.. thank you.

Thanks for looking and your comments and further styling suggestions appreciated.
