"This is such a lovely top but I have nowhere to wear this." I'm sorry what? Ladies! What is this?! I often hear this while at the shop and I have to say this kills me. I understand that perhaps not everyday you want to put on a dress or wear something "dressier." I know those jeans and cotton tees call your name every time you open the closet doors but I am of the belief that every women should on occasion go somewhere and do something that you get a little dressed up for. No one is saying 4" heels and a mini, I'm just saying a little style, a little prep, a small step up from the every day ordinary many of us slide into for the sake of convenience and comfort. Ok say you, but I still have no where to go. Not buyin' it say I. Be the master of your own destiny and call up your best girlfriend and try a new restaurant you have always wanted to go to. Hell, invite a few girls over to the house and dress up for carry out put in fancy bowls and serve with several bottles of vino. Find a reason to celebrate! Some of my most fun nights have not been the crazy clubs or a hot date with Mr. Talldarkandhandsome. The best nights have been celebrating making it to Friday, celebrating a birthday or simply just getting out of the house and being around other human beings you do not know with someone you know! Turn on some music, have a glass of wine while you get ready. Perhaps do a bit more dramatic eye than normal; wear that statement necklace you feel is a little too sparkly for daytime. Whatever it is ladies, beauty for beauties sake and dressy for the sake of not always being dressed down is important. I encourage you to throw a few pieces into your wardrobe that spice it up. I am sending out a call to action: Plan to do something new and wear the thing you thought you had nowhere to wear it to, there!
