Dresses- nsv
My husband ordered me a dress for a Valentine's day present. Totally weird by the way, as he NEVER buys me clothing. Not his fault, I am just so terribly tall it is impossible to find items in the store. Anyway, it came today. He knew I shopped the talls at JCP.com, and went there. He chose one I never would have- and holy smokes do I love it! Dresses back when I was so heavy just didn't work. I was sooooo tall and sooooo morbidly obese that it was absolutely impossible to find something that didn't look like complete hell on me. I felt tall, sleek, and beautiful in the dress he bought me- best present ever! Now if I could just find pantyhose friggin' long enough so I can wear the dress! Yea, I know- how 1980's of me... but I have incredibly pale skin and cannot tan due to skin cancer, so I struggle with pantyhose made for women who have legs at least 6 inches shorter than mine. But who cares, because I love the dress!

Can't stand them- I am a very tactile chick :) They also do not come up quite high enough, so when I sit down you can see the top portion. But I do appreciate the suggestion!

Oh, Happy- Where are the pictures? I would love to see what your post- TT looks like- I can only imagine! So very cool re. hubby buying clothes for you----I remember mine wanting to buy me some dress or something - we had been married only about a year, and I had already begun to put on the weight - wouldn't let him 'cause I was embarrassed to admit I was a size 16 or so....sorry, know I'm rambling, this was almost 30 years ago- but, what I'm trying to say is - how perfectly wonderful for your husband to buy you something pretty- you know- for his love---- Smiles, Bonnie.

No they don't turn you orange and they actually look pretty great, but only for about a max of 4-5 days. But if you wanna look amazing for a wedding or a weekend it's perfect :) I can tan either, for the skin cancer runs in my family as well, so I get spray on tans here and there. Just post a pic of the dress from the JCP website! At least that way we can see which one he picked out ;)
