I just got back from my first radiology appt and they covered my torso with tape and marker and three TATTOOS (black dots on my shoulders and sternum). It all has to stay for the next three weeks. Well, the tattoos are there to stay.
Everything I own is v neck or sleeveless and I have Easter, a baptism, and a wedding during this time period.
I need crew neck dresses with non-cap sleeves? Fuck. Lol.
I am imagining a fit and flare with a boat neck and short sleeves. I don't even know if this exists but I am going to go look. I wonder if mod cloth would have anything since they seem to carry a lot of retro styles.
my mom has similar needs, but just because she still finds sleeveless things "trampy" (lol). She was able to find some relatively cute stuff at Penney's recently.
People here have posted great dresses. Isn't there special tattoo-covering makeup you could also employ so you can wear other things you like and already own? Sorry if that's dumb.

Well, it's all marks covered in clear medical tape.

This might work, might need a light cardigan or wrap depending on where it hits your arms/shoulders. I have the blue with white polka dots and it's adorable.

@stellasmom, do you have to keep that same med tape on? If you could take it off completely, or find thinner tape, that would give you another inch or so.

They said to keep it on.
I don't start radiation until 11 days from now. Wtf? On what planet will tape last that long? The tape is supposed to preserve the marks.
I'm honestly really put out by this. Why mark me 11 days beforehand?
