Oh Happy Day!

I broke a cardinal rule of fashion today - I wore a brown belt with black shoes! I have a really, really good reason though. First of all, the belt is not visible, but was absolutly necessary to hold up my black pants that are now too big to stay in the proper location on my hips. Secondly, the one black belt I had that would fit through the loops on these pants...is now too big! Yep, there is not one more hole left to get the belt to stay in place. I knew it was coming and I should have taken the belt to the leather shop up the street and had him punch a new hole, but I like the idea of having a good, valid reason to buy a new black belt.

YAY!

Don't take the belt to a leather shop all you need is a hammer and a screwdriver (the tool not the drink).

Or a hole punch might even be easier.

You win! I just started my weight loss fiasco and that's my goal. To have no belts!

Have a screwdriver, the drink, not the tool, sounds like a much better way to celebrat NEW BELTS!

@ The D - thanks for the advice, but the point is I now have a good reason to buy a new belt, as if I really needed a reason

@ Kate - Good Luck! Take it one day and one pound at a time

@ Felicity - Excellent Advice!

@ Fiesty Charlie - Oh honey, I don't discriminate based on fashion sense! Common sense, yes! Fashion sense, NO!
