I don’t know what possessed me to wear a white skirt, white top, and white watch all at the same time. I have a history of being anti-white (you know what I mean). In high school, I was a junior marshal (the top 10 people in the junior class acted as ushers at the seniors’ graduation and were called “junior marshals”). The girls had to wear all white – either a white dress or white shirt and white skirt. I don’t remember why, but I was really pissed about it. I think I just didn’t want “the man” telling me what to wear. It was like living in 1984 (the book, not the year…at least I think so…full disclosure: haven’t read it). Plus, if you tuned in to the blog a couple weeks ago, you know I wore a black dress to my wedding. The wedding man can’t tell me what to wear either!

So apparently the only time I’m OK with wearing all white is when it’s on my own terms. And when it includes stripes, leopard, and pink shoes. Baby steps, OK?

It’s incredible but it’s true – I think I’m an even better dresser now than I was when I started blogging a little over a year ago. (Pause for applause. Thank you. You’re too kind.) When you look at pictures of yourself every day, it’s hard not to question the image you’re putting out there. One thing I’ve started to figure out is that some sassy hair and makeup and great shoes can make a big difference sometimes.

Take this outfit for example. Imagine this: No pink lipstick, a plain ponytail, and boring flats. It wouldn’t be the same. I would look like every other frumpy office worker in America in my Target t-shirt, cardigan, and ill-fitting pants.

Wait…maybe I shouldn’t have pointed that out. What I meant was: I took this already fabulous outfit to the next level with blond waves, a statement lip, and studded pumps. Yep, that’s what I was trying to say. BLOGGER SAVE!
