NSV - the dress I wasn't sure I'd ever wear...

It was too small when I bought it, but I loved it at first site and the price (Von Maur clearance) was fantastic.
I told myself I'd lose the weight needed to wear it in 6 months. I even blogged about it. That was Jul 2, 2008.
Well, I was right- it did take me 6 months to lose the weight....it just took 3 years for my mind to finally say 'This time it's happening'.
*ticks one size 8 black/white cocktail dress off her Inspirations list*
Tonight I wore my ribbonesque lovely to see Wicked.

I still have a ways to go, but I'm starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
