I went to my husbands Christmas party on Friday night. Usually I have a blast. So this year I thought I have lost five pounds, been eating super clean, haven’t missed a workout and felt fantastic in the black dress I had picked. As the night grew closer, I grew more anxious about wearing the "little black dress". I am always soooo paranoid that I am one of those chics wearing something I shouldn’t be but thinking I look good. You know who I am talking about. The out of shape, bigger girls that want to wear something that a size 5 girl could wear. Anyway, so I grew a pair and wore it anyway. There are women so dressed up at this party. Some even have ballroom gowns so I thoulght I would be fine. Plus I have KILLER shoes! LOL So I get to the party and all of the sudden I saw what my table of women was wearing and I didn’t want to take off my coat. I had a glass of wine and figured scew it, I wore so I am going to show it. So I took off my coat and got up to go the the restroom and one of the chics looks me up and down and just kind of snickers as she is 40 and sitting there with her moo moo looking jacket. I was like WTF? So it made me super self conscious all damn night. I felt like sh*t! I kept going to the restroom and inspecting every part of my body and kept thinking what is wrong with my dress? By the end of the night I was like screw it and I went out there and danced and didn’t give a sh*t. My question is…why do women have to be this way? Why is it always a competition or something? Can’t a women wear something a little sexy and have another women say wow you look great instead of being jealous or judegemental?
