Is it just me or is getting ready one of the best parts of the day? Maybe I should amend that. Getting ready for special events is probably my favorite part of those days. The luxury of time, the leisurely pace, the smidgen of extra care all makes me feel like I’m a wonderfully sophisticated lady from the 30′s getting ready at her mirrored vanity. I’m sure this is all contrived from black and white movies, of course.
These seldom moments when I actually go out and want to get dolled up are those I am able to revel in. Despite what most assume, living in New York doesn’t equal one non-stop party, unless you’re a socialite. My life is pretty conservative and I rarely have the time or funds to go out and be fancy, hence why I try to make an occasion out of everything.
Am I the only one who feels this way? I’m sure it’s justified by the fact that it is special and a sparse event, but none-the-less I treasure the times it does come around. Here is a cheers to the beauty of getting beautiful!
getting ready for a special day or night out is indeed part of the experience. I think it is what makes going out fun too. : )
It’s really fun to get all dolled up. I don’t go many places either Lindsay. So when I do I jump at it as well.
