My very good friend Jessica hosted a fabo party for her client Victoria Secret last night at the new Trousdale club in Weho (for all of the celeb attendees and gossib, check it out here: http://www.radaronline.com/exclusives/2010/03/exclusive-lindsay-lohan-couldnt-get-victorias-secret-bash! I was feeling pretty good, so decided to go with Tim and our friends Barbara and Raman. We had a nice dinner in Bev Hills and headed to the club. I stuggled to find an outfit that would look cute, sexy and hide my large, ginormous chest and my rounder but, hips and belly. Tough challenge!
I decided on a knit DVF dress that once looked cute and funky on me when I wore it to my bday dinner last September. Now, it looked tight and a bit like, "what has Monica been eating lately". I wore black leggings and over the knee boots to hide my pasty, not so shapely legs and made my hair big to try and hide the roots screaming for a highlight.
I did my best, but as I walked into the club and saw the groups of pre-pubescent, ultra-thin LA twentysomethings in their barely there dresses (with sequence which I Love) and their tiny legs and beautiful hair, I lost it. I just could not help feel like a big, blubbery mess. Probably not the best idea to go to a party that boasts swimsute models and lingerie!
We left early - I am still sorry Barb/Raman - and I came home and cried.
Today, I woke up with a renewed sense of strength - it is time to take this pregnancy and make it my own. My solution! Shopping, a trip to the salon for a haircut and highlight, excercise and an attitude adjustment!
So going forward, it will be all about the best mom-to-be I can be - and the best comfortably dressed me possible!
Great Attitude Change Monica!! Take care of you, it's so important! Even once the baby is born make sure that you take that time for yourself, massage, mani pedi, etc. When you feel good it will exude from your body and everyone will notice! Love you! Hang in there!
ReplyDeleteAlso, remember all of the celebrity VS models who were at one time prego! Everybody loves pregnant women! Go maternity shopping and rejoice in the fact that you are not expecting in 1985...those maternity clothes were hideous.
