"Girl look at this tacky ass flyer," Mari said to me as I twisted and turned in the mirror trying to get a better look at the one-piece lingerie set I had on.
We were currently in a lingerie shop trying to find the perfect piece for my costume for the party tonight. I had finally decided that I wanted to go as a sexy Tinkerbell, so the first thing on today's agenda was to find the perfect outfit.
"Didn't yall say his ass had a party planner? Just for her to come up with this basic shit." I laugh looking over the party invitation she was showing me.
"Girl right! He need to fire that bitch or at least ask for a partial refund or something." She said, making me snicker as I handed her phone back to her.
"What do you think about this one?" I say referring to the vibrant neon yellow lingerie set I had on. I knew it wasn't the classic green that Tinker Bell wears, but it was the closest thing I could find that matched the aesthetic I was going for.
The bodice consisted of a lace bra that had a small bow right in the center of the chest area. The material of the garment was a mix of sheer and lace that gave off a sexy vibe. The bodysuit had garter straps hanging from the waistline which intensified its sex appeal to me. I also grabbed a pair of matching knee-high socks to attach the garter straps to complete the look.
"This one's giving slut me out and I'm here for it!!" Mari squeals, making me laugh. "It honestly fits the design I had in mind when you said you wanted to go as a sexy Tinkerbell." She smiled as I continued to look at myself in the mirror.
"You don't think I'm showing too much?" I asked, pinching at the thin material of the set. It left little to the imagination and I didn't feel like I had the body for this. Something like this would probably look way better on someone like Mari.
Dominic's words from a few weeks ago constantly echoed in my mind as I looked at myself in this full-length mirror.
You know how many bad bitches I could have in my face but I settled for you?
Those words constantly plagued me daily. I was ashamed that he had me questioning my worth just off his spiteful words. I hated that I always sought validation about myself from others. It was a hard habit to break and I had been making progress, but a few hateful words from someone who was supposed to love me had me back at square one.
"A little bit but bitch it'll look so goddamn sexy on you!" Mari says smacking me on the ass which made me giggle.
"I guess we have a winner then," I say forcing a smile to form on my face. I was going to try my hardest to push through my insecurities so that I could have a good time tonight. "Now I just need to find some things to tie the look together. Definitely need some shoes." I mention as I go back into the dressing room to change back into my clothes.
