    Yeah in light of starting my new job tomorrow (TOMORROW!!!) I am hosting a fahion show in our living room in about an hour. So far I am the designer, the model, and the one and only fan. HAHA!

    Given that I haven't worn business casual in 4 years, I think I'm going to need to do some serious shopping this weekend...

    I'm guilty of wearing leggings. Normally I just wear them around the house or when I'm at a friend's house, but I do have some I wear out in public :P But I pair them with long shirts! And I make sure they're thick and not see through. I have some velvet ones that I love, plus they're super comfy.

    Good, because I laugh at those who I can see their butts/chonies/girly bits through their leggings....

    I love leggings! lol I had jeggings before pajama jean existed! I love wearing them with sandals and a tunic! Since I just sit at my desk all day at work I can usually get away with them and a long sweater and nice top or a tunic. Very comfy for the days you do no want to get dressed lol ;)

    It's okay, I don't brush my hat either.

    But in all seriousness, because of the way my hair is I don't brush it every day because then it would only be frizzy and poofy. I finger comb in the shower and use some detangler to keep the tangles and knots away.

    Do you go with solids or patterns? I fear solids are too plain and patterns too loud, and therefore haven't given the rompers significant attention.

    Yes! I am all about comfort but while trying to still be stylish.  I love the onepiece outfit too, makles life easier and more comfortable! I have a pants romber and I love it!  They are just as easy as dresses and I pair mine with a blazer for work.

    I love dresses also! I wish I could wear a dress everyday. I think they are so much more comfortable than jeans, but I usually feel overdressed wearing them.

    Congrats Nursey that is so exciting!

    I have never worn a hat..am I weird? I mean, I've tried them on but never actually worn one.

    I'm not stick thin and I pull off the romper! It's loose in the waist/upper body, and has elastic that hugs my hips... so no belly is shown floppin around. The top is a draw string with a blue shoe lace type thing, so it hugs my chest just above the strapless bra. The fabric is a light denim... I wouldn't dare try patterms either. Looking for a picture.....

    Like a lot!!! I love hats, Big floppy ones for in the sun, straw fedoras for summer, large floppy style berets in the fall, cute snow caps in the winter, and ball caps all spring! Yes I have hats for every season!

    [QUOTE]In Response to Re: Yeah- I'm that tacky.... : I am jealous that you have only 13 lbs to lose. I think at this point that might come off, like...my arm or something. HAHA. Ok maybe that is an exaggeration but still.
    Posted by LivLeighton[/QUOTE]

    Haha! 13% is only to my 5% sticker!!

    I have 100 pounds to lose. I want my keychain, my 25 pound, 50 poud, 75 pound, 100 pound, and 16 week charms!

    I just didn't know how to add "until my 5%" without it being on two lines.

    Before my surgery- I was at about 160. In college I was at 145. Now I'm at 251. As Allusive can attest- I just carry it well- all in my lower half.

    ETA: 100 pounds was way too scary to put on my ticker.

    The keychain you get at 10%. The clapping hands you get at 16 weeks. You get a disc for 25 pounds, 50 pounds, 75 pounds, and 100 pounds. You get a 5K charm when you run a 5K. And you get a star when you hit your goal weight- and a start when you hit lifetime. :)

    Maybe for those doing WW or weight loss online with our NEY group- we can give out sticks for people to put in their siggy! What do you think? We could even make our own "keychain" of sorts for people to put in their siggy when they hit big goals like 25 pounds lost, ect.

    Lunar - I always chuckle when I see the infomercials for pajama jeans but honestly, I would love to try a pair to see if I could pull them off for real jeans lol 

    Liv - LOVE the hat!! 

    I guess something I wear that other people would frown upon are Uggs. I know so many people that just hate the looks of them & call them Ugglies(lol) but I couldn't give 2 sh!ts. I LOVE MY UGGS.

    Oh, yoga pants are bad? I wear them out and to the gym. They're comfy and look better than sweats or leggings.

    I also love Uggs. They're just so warm and keep my feet dry! They aren't the prettiest things, but in the winter I could care less about pretty boots. I will admit that it probably helps that other people wear them too haha.
