Dress Code

I forgot to tell you about one of my homework assignments.  Change your dress code.
Here are some of the recommendations:

• Wear scoop necklines
• Warm colors
• Close fitting tops and pants
• Light jewelry
• HEELS!!??

NOOOOOO....I don't wear heels even though I'm only 5'1" tall.  I have a friend who wears heels with everything, even shorts!  She's uncomfortable in low-heeled shoes.  I am the complete opposite.  I will only wear 'comfortable' shoes so you know there are Aerosoles in my closet.  I probably own 20 pairs of black shoes and only one of them is a pair of bareback heels.

But, I'm going to be honest here.  I look good in heels, especially with the legs showing beneath a little pencil skirt or dress.  I admit, it's sexier to men.  So, I have this back and forth conversation going on in my head constantly...

Who are you dressing for?

Myself?  Him?

Is that moving the love intention forward?

Do you want attention or are you content with schlepping around in your flip flops?

Did you sign on to the Love in 90 Days commitment?

Can you just try wearing the damn heels?

YES, I CAN!!

Last week, I was in Florida.  I've got some pretty big events coming up...daughter's wedding, her engagement party, 60th birthday bash with some movers and shakers in New England.  I waited to shop until I lost the 15 pounds and my clothes were swimming on me.  Now, I'm ready.  I'm going to the Gucci Mall in Orlando to outfit the New Me.

White House Black Market.  Been there?  I bought a white dress there 15 years ago and it was my absolute favorite until I put it in the dryer on the hottest setting; now, it fits my 10 month-old granddaughter.  I'm still sobbing...

I enter.  I love everything!!  I'm loathe to admit this, my sense of style sucks.  I found Megan.  My own personal shopper who put together the most amazing outfit I've ever owned!  Black strapless dress, fitted with a crinoline so the skirt poofs out, shrug to match, HEELS, jewelry and satin purse.  Wow...I was my Diamond Self.  Megan got a fat commission that day and I don't even care how much it cost.  I felt and looked on top of the world!

Okay, I promise I'll write about the Harley Guy tomorrow.
