Gals.
Went on a double date last week and as you can imagine, I didn’t have a THING to wear! HA!
Truthfully, I have a closet full of clothes that I could have put on, but TBH, we were going to a NY-style steak house with big leather booths and AMAZING martinis and I wanted to look the part. I didn’t really feel like putting on the same ole, same ole that I wore all summer. You know what I mean? I wanted something shorter and more fun than my summer maxi or my playful sundress. I was pretending I was in NYC and damnit, I needed to have a dress that WORKED!
Let’s just say, I didn’t get out the door in ANYTHING I was feeling like wearing. I didn’t have it in there – or maybe I did, but whatever I was seeing in my own closet, I wasn’t LOVING. Remember….if it’s not a HELL YES, then it’s a NO!
That led me to a MAJOR clean-out and a major online browsing session. I’ve been on EVERY site picking things that I wish I had had that night (and some others, of course). This is the “tweener” time of year, so you really gotta find what isn’t TOO TOO summery and what isn’t TOO TOO fall-like. Ya know?
All I know is that I couldn’t STOP picking things that I liked – really things that I would wear TOMORROW if I had another place to go ;0. I will say, we’re planning a once a week or every-other week double date with the Boulder BFF’s and so…..I’m going to need some things to wear ;0. I bet you’ll find something – there’s certainly plenty to choose from!
Trust the Mother…you’ll be glad you did.
oxoxo
PS – I know, I know….it’s an AWFUL lot, but peeps are asking for ideas and frankly, I can’t STOP looking.
PPS – Some of these items might be from last year or maybe MORE, but guess what??…..who CARES!!!! I’m GLAD not to have the latest that every girl in town will be wearing! I don’t want to walk into a restaurant and have the girl next to me in the same thing…….what’s WORSE? Ok, maybe getting Corona ;0
