Censor This

Tonight was the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. It was great. I love the fashion. I also love that the Angels are picked based on appeal to women rather than me. I now have a favorite Angel, Doutzen Kroes from the Netherlands.


I recognized which bra collection most of models were wearing. I kept naming them like "that's Very Sexy Pushup, Very Sexy Halter, 250 Very Sexy Swarovski bra" etc.

The most exciting moment was when one of the models came out in the astrological/night sky Very Sexy bra, because that's my favorite one. I was even happier when I realized my breasts look better in it than hers did. How often do a normal person's breasts look better than a Victoria's Secret model's? Not very often.

I wish we could all flaunt around in our underwear. I know I sure do sometimes, but usually only when I'm home alone or with my guy. Ever since getting my belly button pierced, I've wanted to wear less clothing in a 'hey-look-this-is-beautiful' way. Now that I've lost weight and continue to do so, I'm even more proud of my body.

Yesterday I discovered that I'm between a 3/4 and 5/6 in dresses. It depends on the brand of course, but I'm getting smaller. Yay! Yet somehow my breasts are growing? How does that make sense? I know one person who won't complain about that (hahaha!).

I'm not saying I want to be skinny. Never. I want my curves and I'm perfectly proportioned. Ultimately my goal is be healthy and smile every time I look in the mirror, which I usually do. Sometimes I have trouble looking away from the mirror. I don't think that's bad though.


On a semi related note, I bought my new year's dress today. I sent a picture to Katya, Kate, Mylene, Hallie, Luke, Carol, my sister and Sean. Hallie was the only one who couldn't see it due to technical difficulties. Everyone else loved it. I just need silver heels and a silver clutch to go with it. I found the perfect clutch today at the Coach store for $58, which is a crazy good price and I could use it for going out every week. So I will definitely save up for it..or I'll ask for it for the holidays.
I'm hesitant to describe the dress. I'm not sure showing Luke so far ahead of time was a good idea. I think it would have been better to surprise him, but at the same time I wanted to know he liked it. For the record, he does :)

Last but not least, I need to dance. Soon. I have dance fever.

VS: An Unhealthy Obsession?

After receiving the Victoria's Secret catalogue in the mail and pining for everything in it, I started to think about how much underwear I have. I've come to the conclusion that I own $310 in bras alone. I would guess it would be a total of $600 with underwear included. That's completely insane. Underwear is my weakness though.
I was being good about avoiding the urge to buy until part way through this summer. I went shopping with Katya and probably bought $80 worth of bras and matching underwear in H & M. Then I was good until Iszy came back for the long weekend. She wanted to look for a bra in Victoria's Secret. I told her that I wouldn't buy anything before we went in and pulled my tres sexy hat over my eyes to avoid looking. 5 minutes into the store I see a yellow bra, grab it, and pay $40 for it. My excuse: "you don't understand! I've been looking for a yellow bra for 2 years!" So now I'll probably be good until christmas time...
