Not only was I a witness as two of my great friends officially tied-the-knot at City Hall in HK, but I then went out for a celebratory lunch with them to a fancy restaurant with an amazing view and champagne and menus and everything. Something I haven't done in I can't even remember how long.
To top off this superb day, I, wait for it, this is the best bit...
I... I wore a belt!!
Calm down.
Exciting, I know.
I love a belt. The waist-belt variety in particular. And a waist is something I haven't had in 12 months. 12 bloody months of wearing a variety of sacks in all shades of grey and black and boring. But now that the baby is out, the bump is gone and the residual flab is well, still there, I can once again don the belt.
I may not be able to breathe while wearing it. But who needs to breathe, really. It's a detail I'm willing to overlook.
Because people, the belt, is back.

A belt? Go girl. I'm still not wearing belts and Edward just turned 1!!
But I did get into an old pair of jeans the other day and that was PRETTY exciting!

And don't you look just lovely. A simple pleasure, I love it!
Haha, it IS a milestone for any new mama, I totally know what you mean. I was itching to get back into my jeans after both my bubs and when it happens, ahhh accomplishment. But look at you Miss Hottie, you have gained your belt wearing figure back in no time, well done. Love the pic, it looks like you're clutching the pram with your other hand, I might be wrong, but it looks like that to me and I think that's pretty cute if you were xo
I love this! I can still only wear outfits that fit under the bust and then billow out! I'm working on it though! Bring on the waist belt!
Gorgeous Bridget, love a neat belt too, makes you feel human & lady like, a waist, such a great part of being a woman. How lovely to go to a wedding - we're off to one a week after my husband comes home from Afghanistan, i'm a crier, i don't know the couple, he's a soldier, but first wedding i'll go to with my husband in 8 years!! Shocker i know, i always go solo, get put on the singles table, such fun, for a housewife & mother of 4.
Look at that gorgeous baby, so beautiful, love Posie
I freaking remember this day, & you've not exaggerated at all, it's ... MOMENTOUS!
& YOU are BEAUTIFUL!
Honestly stunning.
I have both hair AND waist envy! xx
