~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I love, love dressing up, matching shoes, purse, belt, hat, scarf round the neck or tied on the purse handle. Now, I am ready. I always dress up for me for I want to feel good. Don’t get me wrong for I dress down. But, I always get comments not being casual or dress down enough like, jeans with a lacy top at the parties, jeans with loafers, not tennis shoes on casual Fridays. I do dress down for me in torn shirts with holes or tattered clothes at home cleaning and cooking. My son would tell me to throw them away and remind me I have so many clothes. But I feel good wearing them for I feel free being me.
