Three Dresses and a Skirt

It may not sound like much to you...but for me, it represents a turning point in my life.

I spent most of my 20's shunning dresses and skirts. Why...I'm not quite sure but it's the truth. A good pair of jeans or black pants (to minimize the curves) were staples for me and I sported them without fail.

And I don't know if the change happened when I had Camryn or as I got closer to 30, but now I absolutely love them!

I love the femininity that a beautiful dress gives you. Or a skirt that shows just enough thigh to be subtly sexy. Pair them with a great perfume and cute stilettos and you're ready to do the damn thing.

And I know that I only have three dresses and one skirt right now but I'm working on it. Matter of fact, I tried on 3 others today that I liked...but I'll have to wait until my funds are right on that one. A girl does have bills to pay!

You know this is really not just about a skirt or a dress. It's about personal growth and coming into who you are. The fact that I only wore pants was not because I loved them, but because I was limiting myself and not exploring all that was available to me. At this point in my life, I am wise enough to see it for what it is and I realize now that when Oprah said 'Live Your Best Life,' she was really onto something.

Bottom line - if you are still doing the same thing that you were doing 5 years ago, 10 years ago...there's a problem. Reinvent yourself and become anew.
