Oh, Hmmm. something like this? Definitely appealing. And well done.

I approve. Stylish doesn't have to mean immodest.

But, oh my, she's got bare shoulders!!! For shame. Remember, modesty can mean different things for different people.

*Note - I happen to think the outfit looks great.

As mentioned before, my wife generally wears long skirts, because she likes them. They are she says also both warmer and cooler. I wear a kilt, and find the same also true!

I REALLY like that look. And coordinating tartan. Quite a pair.

Now, I must bring up another issue about having a beautiful sexy lass wear some beautiful sexy clothes. I don't want my wife (who's quite a knockout) to wear something excessively sexy outside the home. I get too jealous of all the other men "checking it out." I like for her to look good but not as if she's "advertising." For the record, I only have objected once regarding a low cut (really low cut) dress--she altered it to keep me happy.

You just remember, when the guys checking her out......She is going home with you! Let them check her out and marvel at your good fortune!

I agree with you. When somebody looks at my wife, I take it as a compliment.

Alan,
My wife, Theresa, says this doen't pertain to her. She wears what she wants! I wear what I want and we are both ok with that.

Appx. 8 mos. of a particular medication = now schleping around 35-40 EXTRA pounds I did not have previously.....

Due to above, I now have CANKLES for pity's sake! (Just an example).

Nevermind that 99.99999% of the clothes I own that USED TO FIT no longer can even remotely be considered for wearing, and that would be IF I could get them "on" - much less zipped or laced or whatever.............

And it's not like I have any place to 'put' the medicine weight and puffiness and cellulite dimples that now grace me from shoulders, down my arms, legs..... I AM A SHORT PERSON **damnit** Can you say 5 ft. 1" at the most? AHhuh.

It's not just at and below the waist, folks...... I have freaking JOWELS. I have a freaking DOUBLE CHIN...... the tissue over my collar bone for pity's sake is puffy! I have fat freaking elbows for crying out loud! Even my pre-weight shoes don't fit!

I feel fit only for entry as a balloon in the the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade!

Guess what took a fast ride down the sewer pipes as my weight ballooned from ~115 llbs. to 145+? MY CONFIDENCE

So........ please mind not this tiny pigmy person who wanders about in greatly over-sized tee-shirts and baggy 'yoga pants' (which I also wear for jammies)..... 'tis just the way it's gonna be until I find a doctor who can deal w/the underlying medical issues and somebody, hopefully, the weight will reverse.

I mean, jeez...... I eat two serving of low fat cottage cheese and maybe a sourdough 'English' muffin A DAY. A-DAY.....PERIOD THE END. And each time I step on the scale..............

Hmm this might be the same thing my mom was on for 7 years. If so its mostly water weight. Nasty stuff, I've had to go on it from time to time.
