dressing and stuff
i worked retail all my life
seriously. from the time i was 16 until a week before Lily was due (so 20 years basically)
one of the things i liked most about retail was getting dressed to go to work
everyone was expected to look their best and current
there was always an excuse to buy something new because it would get worn
ever since i became a full time mom, i don’t get dressed the way i used to
i’ve become quite lazy about dressing actually
heels? hardly ever
make-up? lipstick if anything
although there are times i feel like i have nothing to wear (who doesn’t), i have a wardrobe full of clothes that hardly get worn
the things i wear the most these days are my lounge pants and tanks (which i’m wearing right now)
because i’m mostly at home
this week i decided to take advantage of Lily being in school and ran some errands
by myself
dressed
so ok, i wore the same shirt two days in a row (if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it) but, i wore heels twice (my cheap portuguese version of hasbeens) and i even busted out the eyeliner
now if only my hair could cooperate
can’t i just have straight hair? (yes! i want straight hair)
happy friday everyone
go get dressed and go out!!!!

I hardly ever get dressed up, but now I’ve started school and have to meet new people as an individual and not a ‘mum’ I’ve been making an effort on my 2 nights I go in every week, and do you know what, all those clothes hanging in my wardrobe with cobwebs on them, I forgot how good they make me feel, and my hair ! Yes, it can actually look nice !

@Alex,
dressing really makes a difference doesn’t it? good luck with your studies!
