    And this is my beauty! I haven't bought it yet, but will be going into the store tomorrow to do so. I'm so excited because I was worried about dress shopping at my current size (I'm about 20 pounds heavier than I usually am) and I thought I wouldn't be able to get a good idea of what things will look like when I shift the weight. Pleased to say it was a wonderful experience anyway, and extra weight or not, I fell in love with a dress! It is a Pronovias, from the 2011 Glamour Collection, it is called Fauna.

    Beautiful dress, and it fits you like a glove. And I have no idea where you are going to find those 20 lbs to lose because I don't see them! You look amazing!

    Thanks everyone for the lovely comments!

     

    @Amaryllis: the weight is pretty much in the badonk:)

     

    @jenny8283: I found the dress in NYC at the Pronovias Flagship store on 52nd & 5th. They had lots of amazing dresses, it was hard to pick one!

    @plantains: You look great! I don't think you need to lose any weight, but I understand because all my weight goes to my booty, too.

    I LOVE it! I really wish I could have been able to pull off a dress like that! I tried one on that was similar and it made me look like like little bo beep ;(  I was soo upset b/c  I really wanted it to look good on me!
