So this is the dress design we came up with ... what do you think? I'm thinking it may need a back piece as I will have to wear something to keep "the girls" contained, but otherwise it's gorgeous! I choose to have the royal blue color to honor the fact that I was raised in Alaska.  Somehow Frankie is going to add some gold (but not too much) to represent the stars on our flag ... And if it's sparkles, hopefully not too much ... Once it's final & made, I'll post photos so you can see the fabulousness that is me!  Thank you Frankie! <3

OK, I love it for Simon ... but then these "people" show up & just put a smile on my face ...

Barring any flight problems, I will be home this weekend to send off Sydnee!!!

So I decided that I just might as well get my dress custom made ... Problem is, I have looked at so many different styles, I'm not sure WHAT I want!!! I'm thinking Grecian style with hit slit (my legs rock!) & banded or corded waist ... Thing is being 5'4" tall is would I be able to carry it off & then, what about color?  I love bold colours, but this style seems to say muted ...

Then it'll come to cost ... the economy still sucks, especially here in California, but if the dress is me then I'm going for it!  Sometimes you gotta splurge if it's for the right thing, ya know? Well I will post Frankie's concepts once he sends them to me & let me know what you think.  Maybe even let you vote?  hmmmm ... If I take state, th...

OK, so we are a few days in now ... still trying to get used to writing 2010, but I think everyone has that problem! hahaha My Torrid Appearances fell through. :( We were all set & then - BAM! - they pulled out!  Something about Miss Plus America not being withing their target niche or something vague like that.  Ummm ... hello ... most of my wardrobe is from you!  But, whatever ... I'm also trying to do an appearance at the Lane Bryant in the mall by my house. OK ... now dress shopping is moved up as a priority!  I need to find THE dress for formal wear ... Any suggestions?  I just don't know what I really want ... If I win state, I'm splurging and having one specially made for me by a friend ... He's a designer so I'll rust him to make me look good, even if it costs me! :) Hmmm ... New Years Resolution this year is to cut out fast food/proccessed junk & caffeine.  I think the first part will be easy, but the caffeine ... I love my diet sodas...
