She Cleans Up Pretty Nice.....

Thanks to everyone for your advice on the jewelry-and-formalwear question - I wound up having an extremely talented and helpful friend put together a necklace for me on the spot, and I think it worked quite nicely - definitely better than a bare neck would have been.
Anyway, since y'all helped me figure the ensemble out, I thought you deserved to see what it looked like....

I am mostly OK with my appearance but would like to eliminate a little of my belly fat. Ya know. (:

There may be other factors, I don't know.
