When I first moved to Chapel Hill in June of 2009 I was so excited. Everyone wore dresses...every single day. I was finally getting use out of my many many many dresses! It was amazing! But then...nine months later I moved to Jacksonville. No-one-dresses-up. EVER. I'm appalled every single time I go to Walmart. What possess people to wear pajamas in public? More importantly...why would someone go into Walmart looking like this??
Whenever we leave the house I always say "I'm too dressed up." But thank goodness...Danny likes to dress up too..so I'm never alone! Even when we went to the winery for New Years....we were the most dressed up people there (not to mention the youngest by atleast 30 years)
So, when Lady blogged about being All Dressed Up once a week. I was ecstatic! Yesterday I pulled on a pair of tights, a dress and boots...and cleaned the house, made dinner, and played fetch with the dog. If I had worn pearls I would have made Danny call me Mrs. Cleaver.
I didn't want to ruin my super dressy clothes while I cleaned (and heck, no one would see it..so why dirty it?) so, I stuck with a simple dress this week. And something you see very often in Jacksonville. Plaid. If I were a lumberjack I would wear this everyday.
