I cannot wait for J. Crew’s spring line to fully hit stores so I can go treat myself to some new clothes for reaching my goal weight. I really want to invest in some fun, vibrant dresses (both dressy and casual) because I am usually too intimidated to wear them and I need to get over myself and start showing off some leg….which means I need some HOT new shoes to wear with the dresses!
Tonight we are going to the Shops at Legacy to see The Reader at the Angelika Film Center and then dinner at Jasper’s. I am craving Jasper’s Shrimp and Grits, BBQ Ribs, Bourbon Creamed Corn, and French Toast Dessert. You really have no idea how much I look forward to my splurge meal every week! AND Jasper’s would be the perfect place to wear one of my hot new outfits from J. Crew if the spring line would ever show up!
The rest of the weekend should prove to be uneventful. Mr. Mojito has some GMAT stuff on Saturday morning and after we will probably be running some errands and maybe catch another movie. Sunday we are finally going to finish organizing the garage!

Those dresses are so classy. Your going to look great in them!! They both look like great dresses to wear to a spring/summer wedding or a nice night out!
Speaking of weddings, I have a shower to go to tomorrow. Since we still have not told most of our friends its going to be hard trying to strut a mimosa but not actually drink it!!!
I love the second dress. Just wish it would hurry up and be warm enough to wear something like it!
Have a baby shower this weekend – over 40 women invited so looking forward to see how it goes!
Those dresses, expecially the strapless one, make me want spring to come right now! That dinner at Jasper’s sounds delish!
Those ARE cute dresses! Love the colors…I’m so ready for spring as well!
Those dresses are so cute!!
Date night tonight to enjoy my cheat meal and then off to a movie
Enjoy your weekend girly!!
I hope you have a wonderful weekend! Those dresses are so cute! I love them both, but my absolute favorite is the second!
Those dresses are ADORABLE! Have a wonderful weekend!
Mmm, have a lovely night–those dishes sound heavenly.
My weekend wil consist of running (if it’s not too cold tomorrow morning) and dragging the husband to Pier 1 to buy a new bookcase. That thing isn’t going to fit in my car!
Have a great weekend!
HOLY COW!!!!!!!! 2.5 pounds is NOTHING! YOU ARE SO CLOSE!!!!!!! CONGRATS!!!!!
Wow congrats on the weight loss, so awesome!!!
Have a fabulous weekend!
The pockets on that first dress is beyond cute. And congrats on your weight-loss!
Love those dresses…especially the first one! I love the color!
I am so proud of you for being so diligent to get to your goal! I always get about 5 lbs away and then can’t get the rest off. You are amazing!! Those dresses and your success are such motivation to me to stay on track!
Hope you have lots of fun this weekend:) We’re moving my mom into her new house all weekend. It won’t be restful, but I’m excited to hang out with my family.
You should be so proud that you’re so close to your goal weight! I love reading about your WW journey. Those dresses are SO cute – it will feel so good to rock them with your new body!
I love both the dress styles and the colors are so pretty. Love the pastels this spring. You deserve both! Rock it, girl!
You have done so well on the weight loss – that is awesome!!! I am going to get my butt in to gear now. I have been eating much better, so that is a start! I also LOVE both dresses – I bet they would look awesome on you
I love the color of the first dress so much!
This weekend I'll be hanging out with friends tonight- I have a group of 4 couples that we love to do stuff with so we're getting together at one house. Tomorrow I'm working while WEG hunts & sets trot lines!
Have a great weekend!!
i’m in love with the blue dress. j.crew seriously needs to get on board with maternity clothes!
congrats on 1 more pound! you’re almost there!!
the reader will be fun. we’re going to see revolutionary road tonight and splurging. i think i splurge on all of my meals, though!
im also in line with you when it comes to waiting for jcrew to bring out the new clothes!
so, you mentioned that you get one free spurge a week… how does that work.. you can have ANYTHING or you have limits? does this include drink too?
thanks!
A lot of the new Spring arrivals are already in stores. Check out my website for a slideshow preview. Have fun shopping!
I love the dresses! My problem since I am 5′ 8″ is finding dresses that at least come down to my knees!
Mmm Jaspers! We have a gift card to there and I can’t wait to use it!! I’ve heard their shrimp and grits are so good!!
And YAY for being so close to your goal!! You better reward yourself with something beautiful!
Woohoo! Congrats on being so super close to your goal weight, you skinny minnie, you!
Loooove both dresses. I cannot wait to get to my goal weight so I can wear (and feel confident enough in) cute dresses. 
6 lbs down, 14 to go! 
Hope you have a fabulous weekend!
Happy Friday to you!
My hubs and I lived in Dallas last year, and we ALWAYS went to Shops at Legacy!!! I worked a building behind Jasper’s. I miss it so much…especially when you can walk around in the nice weather.
So fun!
Congrats on the weight loss! I know you must be so happy! I think you should treat yourself to whatever you want! I love both of those dresses…I wish spring would hurry too!
well, i think the splurge night is a GREAT idea and i think im going to copy!
enjoy yours!

by the way, great job getting to your goal… i wish, wish, wish i could do it too. i have no self dicipline.
Spoil yourself, you absolutely deserve it!
Congratulations!!!! I just started WW, ummmm for about the 5th time. How much weight did you lose???? Good for you on the new clothes. I cant wait to do that!!
Congrats girl!! Those dresses are fab.
I LOVE the first dress! You definitely deserve new dresses!! A big congrats!
How awesome that you are almost to your goal weight!! What an awesome feeling! Can’t wait to see which dress you pick (if not both!) both are sooo cute!
I LOVE that first dress. It would be perfect to wear to some weddings this summer. Have a great weekend!!
The first dress is SO gorgeous. I love the color. And this weekend is looking pretty lo-key for us as well! Movies, drinks, the usual! Have a great one!
Those dresses are so cute! I passed by JCrew at North Park mall tonight and everything in there looked so cute…when I reach my goal weight I may have to buy a cute dress
Unfortunately that will be a bit longer for me! Hope you have a fun date night. Becky
that dinner at Jaspers sounds so good, especially the French toast desert! I love the idea of a splurge meal and I give myself one of those too–this week it was potato skins with crab meat and melted cheese (mmm…cheese!)
Congrats on only being 2.5 away. Keep going.!
