The other day a
good friend of mine told me how she found a giant bow and decided to put it on
her head for fun at work. She did it for joy and she was having a good time. No
one said anything about it, but she felt more playful all because of it.
Lately, she has
also been wearing this bundle of feather earring in one ear. If you knew her,
you would see that fit her true personality… natural, beautiful, fun, and free.
When we went to try on bridesmaid dresses, even the sales clerk complemented her
on her earring. She said how she liked the feathers and wish she could pull it
off herself. Why can’t she? No one will judge you if you are confident in what
you choose to put on. At the end of the day
it’s not permanent, but it’s a way for you to explore and have fun.
Sometimes I will
put in a much more conservative version of her earrings in my own ears, to try
and channel the traits I love about her. It gives me a little more confidence
and excitement. It lends me the strength that I admire in her.
Lots of people
want “to put more effort in their appearance.” I say put more fun in it. Effort
seams like work. A little joy can go a long way. Dress for yourself. Dress to
put your best self out there. Dress to feel good from the outside in, most
importantly, Dress Yourself to Happiness!
