Deflecting the cost like that really is a great idea. Generally a weight change of 10 lbs is equivalent to 1 dress size, so if your goal weight is a loss of 15 lbs you’ll probably go down a full dress size but a good tailor will easily be able to alter your beautiful dress in a way to show off your new shape while maintaining the integrity of the original style. Good luck on your journey to a healthier you!
PanLAM to you too I love that we can joke around about budgets and weight gain being NS but actually support one another and help those who need to economize and slim down when the talk is serious.
Absolutely! There’s no way every sratstar was born with “perfect” genes or a 7+ digit trust fund, but all of us can agree that it’s important to be conscious of our bodies and make healthy decisions now so that we can stay healthy and beautiful and represent our sororities well for the rest of our lives. And everyone has a budget, the only difference is that some are larger than others. But financial planning and using whatever resources you have responsibly are both really important life skills that will help us as true ladies to provide ourselves and our families with a comfortable lifestyle. There’s nothing sratty about living beyond your means.

Running shoes should really be about how they support and fit your foot, so I would suggest you try and find ones that fit your needs (day-to-day exercise vs. training for a running event etc). That being said, Nike has some really cute ones in with pops of neon color that are fun without looking childish. Plus they coordinate perfectly with norts! I also really love my Asics and they’re pretty popular here in Virginia.
Fourteen years of pre-professional ballet training including 25-30 hrs/week all through high school. I suppose it may be more of an art than a sport, however dance requires a level of stamina, strength, and muscle control that matches any competitive athletic event.
