And your waistline--you really are an inspiration. I can see you mixing things up with a dark fall print skirt or with coordinating slacks if your new workplace permits. Well done and the very best of luck!judidarlinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14471146183017934902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20350253.post-90080625697773511932011-09-12T12:08:48.640-04:002011-09-12T12:08:48.640-04:00What a great color for a suit--you'll get a lo...What a great color for a suit--you'll get a lot of wear out of this!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12742733376287342144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20350253.post-34845653009854657612011-09-12T11:20:38.981-04:002011-09-12T11:20:38.981-04:00The suit looks great!

All you'd need to do is crank out a hem facing, although I agree that sounds too tedious for a named-out person (how I sympathize with that phase..).<br />These colors look great on you, and will work wonderfully with the earlier cream suit. You're doing really well with the wardrobe planning. And as long as you take cell phone pictures, you really shouldn't apologize for hair or makeup, we couldn't tell anything about them anyway.Marie-Christinenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20350253.post-6729427667271948342011-09-12T03:45:32.998-04:002011-09-12T03:45:32.998-04:00Very smart suit!Very smart suit!SewRuthiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09277062926597842242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20350253.post-67419588961869632012011-09-12T00:57:37.387-04:002011-09-12T00:57:37.387-04:00Looking good - love that it's the skirt that&#...Looking good - love that it's the skirt that's '5lbs to tight' LOL! <br />YAY for you - still propping weight like a baby drops pooh! Good for you! (I'm a little bit jealeous though - oh well I'm off to the gym in 30 min). On the picture where we see your back I can really tell that you've lost weight!
