I had my stylist do my hair ($30), went to Macy's and had Chanel do my makeup ($0), then marched my bad self over to Sears and had portraits done. I can't believe them!! I'm pretty! I will try to post some, but had a heckuva time getting the one to be my new avatar. And yes, I AM tiny. The blouse in the picture is a Med and I had to hold up the sleeves with double sided tape. The cropped pants are 8P and I was having trouble keeping them from slipping down. (all the way down.) The only thing that wasn't too big were the famous size 4 leather pants I wore in my "other poses."

I had to give Michelle her framed 8x10 of me last night because I was so excited to have taken a whole bunch of really good pictures. She really likes them too. I am waaaaay wowed.
LOVE the new avatar!! I hope you can get the pics to post so we can see them. You are looking awesome.
