It's warm. That's bad for layering. I can't find my blue flip flops, the ones that would match this shirt and pull the whole thing together. Some of my children, who now wear the same shoe size as me (that should be another tenet of our religion), borrowed them and lost one. One child offered me a green flip flop. "It's kind of blue." No, no it's not.
My husband said to me this morning, "Hey hun, you should wear that red dress today." Then he laughed hysterically. This is the 7th morning he's said that. I've never thought he was that funny. I believe I've hit the end of week 1 wall. I hear that this is the hardest point, but I'm not sure why. For me, I thought I was sick of this stupid dress. It's patterned. It's red. It's dumb. I'm tired of trying to sit correctly in a dress. But actually, I think what I'm really tired of, is trying to make it look cute, EVERY day. I'm stressing myself out. My normal wardrobe is NOT cute. Its comfy jeans and t-shirt- my favorite tees say insulting things on them. There are a limited number of ways I can wear this dress, with the options I have on hand. Wearing the same dress every day for a month, is actually fancier than I normally dress. But it need not be so complicated. Right?
PS. The smile in this photo is for Trina. See why I tend not to smile in photos? Enjoy!
Why would you try to make it cute--every day? Why not just wear it? If it's hot, fewer accessories, if it's cold more. The dress is kind of cute on its own, if one likes dresses. The sitting correctly part would do me in.
