There’s nothing like writing about feeling uncomfortable wearing a sequin dress to make you question wearing said type of dress to Alt Summit. This is so silly you guys, but I did it. And look! I was twinsies with Chelsea Costa, so clearly this was a lovely dress.
And while I was worried about the size of my whatever in a few sequins, some people (ahem, Stefan Sagmeister) are comfortable putting out full-frontal photos of themselves to the world. And they give good kisses.

January 26, 2013 at 6:52 pmYou look great! I love the sequins and just read the sequin dress post (not sure how I missed that– I am a long time reader and once I even spotted you at Oak brook mall, but that’s besides the point). The point is congratulations on losing weight and you look great. Keep up the good work. I am proud of your accomplishments.

January 27, 2013 at 8:45 pmDon’t you two look lovely? Sequins are so much fun and dress up any look! I think every girl should have a dress with sequins to make the occasion special. So glad that you had a fabulous time at Alt.

January 28, 2013 at 9:08 amThe dress is too adorable! Love me some sequins! I really wanted to go to the next alt in NYC this year but it’s on my due date! Looks like you had a ball and can’t wait to see more pictures.

January 28, 2013 at 9:44 amYou look gorgeous! I was at your panel, but I never saw you anywhere else. :( I hope you’ll do a fashion recap, because I’m especially interested in the dress or top (I was in the back) you wore Thursday. So pretty!

January 28, 2013 at 1:34 pmYou look amazing! The pink tights totally pull the look together! We’re built similarly, so it’s good to see someone else pulling off what I wasn’t ballsy enough to do this year! You ROCKED it!
Carrie
January 28, 2013 at 2:08 pmI know it’s not a competition, but you totally wear it best!

January 28, 2013 at 2:48 pmI tried on that dress because it was my favorite sequin dress in the stores this year and, like you, felt that I needed to add a sequin dress to my wardrobe. Unfortunately it felt way to short on me. (@5’11”)
Then i turned around and bought this dress from Nordstrom that is a whole 1/2 inch longer. I kind of want go back and get that zigzag dress too, but what do i need two sequin dresses for?
