What can you wear now?

This weekend I bought ... um, not sure what they're called ... like skinny jeans or jeggings but dressy. One navy pair and one grey pair. I'm wearing the navy pair today with a longish fairly fitted sweater and cardigan ... and high boots.

My birthday suit! Went to a European spa & got naked!!!

I am finally comfortable in my size of fitted ribbed tanks, that's a win. And this:

And things like this ... when I'm out cycling or working out ...

Light strapped dresses like in my profile picture!

I love that everything I put on me now just looks good as an elderly lady once said to me, 'you could wear a bin liner and look good'

Yoga pants and tight fitting workout clothes. Also, at age 55 I bought my first two piece bathing suit that shows my midriff. Granted it's a high waist, but I've NEVER been able to wear a two piece that didn't totally cover my midsection. Can't believe I can wear this one.

Medium tops -- cute ones--from Banana Republic and size 10 pants!

I've almost 47 and have lost 78 lbs (gained back a few here and there), but I'm in maintenance now, too. I wore real shorts for the first time in over twenty years last week. Hubby loved them, I felt a little self-conscious, but SEXY! And I'm wearing shorter dresses this summer, for the first time, EVER. Loving it!

Crop tops (with a high waisted skirt)
Jeans and t-shirt without pudge sticking out
Boots that fit over the calves
Sleeveless shirts (I always have but my arms are nice now)
G-strings
Tighter skirts that go above the knee (without dark panty hose)
Size 6 Lululemons!
Shorts

I actually don't/can't wear A-line dresses anymore though. They looked sweet when I had more fat but they look silly with the muscle now. My style has changed a bit with my physique change.

30" waisted pants. It's awesome cause that size is always "leftover" and makes the clearance racks!!

Confident enough to actually be shirtless. Massive Journey !!

American Eagle jeans.. my favorites that I never would throw away.. I was a bit anal and had to see them everyday to remind me of my goal..

no one understood why I had a pair of jeans hanging on the fireplace for nearly a year.

Loving all these stories!

@arditarose You look amazing in your latest profile pic, as do @Prhick and @Machka9 in the photos they posted!

I realized today that what I really love wearing is bell bottom yoga pants, a simple tee shirt, and a hoodie. No camouflage, a clean simple look, and I feel great. At 57.

A pair of capri trousers I bought when I was 16 and never fit into, wore them for the first time last year (ten years later!) And this year they are a little too big!!

I love my new wardrobe!

It's actually comprised of a bunch of new things and some old favourites, such as:

• Shift dress I made from a sari
• Issey Miyake Vogue Pattern skirt from 1984
• Black fine-pleated skirt of my mother's from 1964.

Here's an album of mirror selfies:

What lovely things are you able to wear now?

I must admit I'm looking pretty good in a wife beater.

Hornsby

That's impossible. Nobody looks good in a wife beater I kid I kid.

JustMissTracy

LOL...you're only slightly wrong...women look good in "wife beaters" (who came up with that name?)....Men, not so much...
