How I Think

Putting together outfit-posts is a joy for me, but it's also a chore. There's lots of preparation that goes into making myself presentable -- including stuff you never face, like shaving your cheeks and adjusting a wig. Normally those tasks are pleasant but they are also work.

Two weeks ago I caught the flu and have been sick ever since. That ailment, combined with snowy cold, has kept me from dressing up. When I don't engage in feminine fun for a fortnight, my mood sours. I get blue. So I vowed to create an outfit-post today, no matter how hard it was.

I looked in my closet for clothes. "Oh no!", I cried, "I have nothing to wear!" Anyone else peering into that overstuffed room would say I'm delusional, but perhaps you understand my mindset. I had nothing new or fun to wear.

So I popped off to my favorite thrift-store. And found a cute dress for $8. I added some silvery strappy sandals and silver jewelry. Voile!
