    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.

    I wear wife beaters all the time in the summer! Love them and they are usually very cheap. I make sure to get many colors!

    I stand corrected, and generally agree :)

    @Orphia thanks for posting this! I have some saris I brought back from a trip and have wondered how to use them (other than the few I have hanging as decoration) and I LOVE the dress idea.

    I've still got a way to go, but I love that I am currently wearing some old jeans I had that are 3 sizes smaller. Granted, they are not in a fashionable cut, but they are fine while I continue to shrink.

    Skirts! no more chub rub! And I used to have a huge butt. Skirts over-emphasized it, or draped over it like a tablecloth. Not flattering. Now it's merely big, as opposed to huge. Moving from fat to curvy makes all my clothes look and fit better!

    I agree, women do look sexy in wife beaters and boxer shorts. The name was made up by a guy that was beating his wife wearing the shirt lol.

    I have found the confidence to wear regular shorts. I always felt too self-conscious to wear anything more than an inch or two above my knees, but now that I dropped a few sizes and toned up I have stopped worrying about my thighs "spreading" when I sit down.

    You know what I can't wear anymore? Strapless anything. A strapless bra does not help at all.
    My breasts went From DD to a small B and have deflated terribly. I'll be getting a breast lift before I can do anything requiring a strapless bra. :/

    I hear you girl! Never considered any sort of vanity surgery in my life but man it is tempting!

    My boobs have deflated significantly. They are easier to "check" each month for lumps. :)

    I just got in to a pair of shorts that I kept that are a size 30. They are no longer snug & fit perfectly. It's going to be a great summer & all of my bathing suits fit me again!!! Have to remember to maintain & not let it slip away ever again........ :)

    As far as pants/shorts is concerned.......I had to throw away or give away ALL of my clothes from my first weigh in. I haven't really replaced them yet. It's hard to buy new clothes while still losing allot of weight. Like right now I'm between a 32 and 34 size waste. Was 38 or 40 depending on the style! So, I'm holding off on going clothes shopping. Right now I have three pairs of cheap cargo shorts to my name.

    Shirts isn't such a problem. I can still wear SOME of my XL size shirts but they are pretty lose. I have been buying some Large and they fit well now.
