Today I purchased my first strapless bra--ever! As I picked it out ( a 38C looks so tiny!) I realized that I had never owned one of these. I thought it was strange and then I realized why. Because I have never felt confident enough to bare so much of my arms, shoulders, back, etc. and thus have never had the need for a strapless bra. Well, the little number I picked out for my "199 outfit" requires a strapless bra. Hot dawg!
Another thing about the little number--I got it in the Juniors section. Don't you think it's kind of crazy that I have to shop in the Plus section for my bottoms and the Junior section for my top? Cool, I say. And I actually don't HAVE to shop in Juniors for tops, but since I can, I am:) Until I'm at least 45 or so.
I know many of you at this point are thinking "Gee, you still weigh nearly 200lbs...stay out of the Juniors!!!" Don't worry. It's okay. I assure you it is not hideous and will not land me on The People of Wal Mart, which seems to be my standard for distasteful clothing these days.
Back to the outfit. I didn't actually get an outfit. That's funny because you may recall I didn't get exactly what I said I was going to get when I reached my first goal. I guess I need to change the rewards to all say "Keelie will buy something now".
I decided to replace the jeans with something else. I still have a pair that fit me right now and I want to wait to be able to actually try on the ones I will get for the next 20 lbs. or so (size 14). Anyway, what I did get was:
- strapless bra
- 3 pairs work-out SHORTS! Yes!
- cute top (that requires a strapless bra, did I mention that already?)
What can I say? I'm shameless.
Edited to add: Just so you know my husband is awesome and will take me out anytime I want. And he's a hot stud. He did not tell me to type those things.

Have a great night out and enjoy wearing your special new outfit. Why not take a photo of the both of you when you go out?
