On the eleventh day of Christmas my true love gave to me, a new outfit for my new post-diet body!.

Okay, so we didn’t drop 10 pounds in 10 days.  But if you stuck to your salmon-greens-and-blueberries diet and stayed away from the sweets, you should have lost something. So what to wrap our svelte body in other than a slimming, holiday outfit? A NEW slimming, holiday outfit.  Let’s go shopping!

• Consider your party destination and theme.  Is it a black tie (my favorite!), semi-formal, or casual affair? Do you prefer a dress, a skirt, slacks, a suit, or jeans and a sweater? Determine what the affair calls for and then choose an outfit which flatters your own shape and size.  Darker colors flatter larger figures. Even a black skirt or a pair of nice dark slacks with a crimson sweater can go a long way for every shape/size.  It’s all about the accessories in the end.
• Footwear also depends upon your needs and destination.  I can’t even believe I am saying this, but if you are going to be on your feet for more than 4 housrs, choose sensible shoes. Remember higher-priced designer shoes are far more comfortable than the cheapies.  I kid you not.  With the exception of Charles David.  He should be strung up from a noose, while balanced on a stool and forced to wear a pair of his uncomfortable stilettos.  I often wonder how many women have gone lame from wearing his shoes. I am convinced the man is a sadistic, woman-hating fetishist.
• Bring a nice coat.  Don’t ruin an outfit with a Salvage hoodie or vintage jean jacket.  What are you thinking? 

Whatever outfit you choose, don’t feel guilty.  You’ve been shopping for friends and family for over a month.  Don’t feel badly about spending your hard-earned money on a new outfit for yourself. However, if you already have nice outfits in your closet that don’t get much wear, think about buying a coat or donating one of your own coats to a homeless shelter instead.  It is a the season of giving afterall, and you don’t have to know the person to brighten their day.

Smile! Santa is on his way!
