The Purple Shirt

purpleshirt.jpg

Some of you may not like this shade of purple. Some of you may not like the style of this shirt, with it’s built in shrug. But to me, this is, the perfect shirt. It’s cute and versatile. I can dress it up with a long black skirt for church or wear it with my flare jeans.

I love this shade of purple and it is very flattering on my skin, I love the style and I know that it will compliment my figure nicely. When I have a figure again. Which is why for now I will only look at this shirt. Look at it while I move and sweat and crunch and drop 15 pounds. Because I don’t get to wear this shirt until 15 of these pounds (sitting all in my mid section and double chin of course) are gone.

It’s the first serious New Years Resolution I’ve ever made and I’m announcing it publicly in the hopes that it will help me keep to it. I’ll be posting a picture of me 15 pounds lighter in this purple shirt in the near future.

    Yeah Summer. Great goal. Cute Shirt. I will be cheering for you from the side line over here. I look forward to seeing you wear the shirt. Good bye 15 lbs.

    I’ll give 15 a try also. No competition, just cooperation.

    Oh yeah I bet that would look good on you, nice choice. I can’t wait to see you wearing it, good luck! I haven’t even thought about new years resolutions yet, I guess I better get on it! Happy New Years!

    Best wishes in attaining your goal!

    And Great Job being brave enough to set a goal for the new year. I haven’t attempted it yet, though I have MANY ideas swimming around in my head.

    good for you! good luck!

    BTW, purple will be very complementary.

    Great goal. Mine is similar, but it includes 40 lbs, not 15! Love the color.

    I haven’t officially set a New Year’s Resolution - but this is also one of mine - to lose 15 lbs by the end of April (in time for a CRUISE we have planned) - I’ll support you - you support me! I hope you have a great New Year Summer. I look forward to seeing “less” (a lot) of you in 2008 - see you then. Kellan

    I adore the shirt. I want one. Losing the last 30 pounds is my big goal for 2008 (40 down!). Good luck, will be rooting for you!

    That’s a great idea, getting a shirt you like and not wearing it until you lose 15 pounds. I want to lose at the very least 5, but more like 10, and don’t think I’m skinny because I said 5. That’s only the weight that I think I could actually keep off. I can’t wait to see your picture!

    Piece of cake! You will totally do this. 15 pounds? You’ll be done by March for sure!
    Good luck!

    Piece of cake! I mean, no cake, but you know what I mean…. Happy New Year!

  12. PaigeNo Gravatar on January 1st, 2008 8:17 pm

    That is a great shirt! And it will be fun to see you in it!
    Happy New Year!

    Good luck on reaching your goal. I love this shirt and can’t wait to see you in it! (I found your blog through Holly and I love it!)

    AWESOME. I can picture you in it now! You will do it!

    I actually just discovered that I love that color! I bought a tank this summer in that shade of purple and I loved how it looked on me. I like myself in darks, was excited to find a “new” dark instead of brown or black. I really like that style too! Can I ask where you got it?
