That feeling when you put on your absolute fave top and feel fabulous! The colour, the style, the fit, it’s just sooo you!
The trouble with me is, I’d save those items in my wardrobe for that special way–off occasion or the party that I hadn’t actually received an invitation to. I didn’t want to wear them for just any ole day. Besides they’d get ruined from my little people’s sticky fingers! Then one regular Monday morning something miraculous happened. I opened my wardrobe and pulled out my bestie top and 2Kool4Skool skinnies, opting against my normal practical Mumsy but oh so comfortable clothes. What had come over me? I simply wanted to feel fabulous again…a distant memory from my chic days. But that sassy girl is still in me. Screaming to come out. That day I let her. I waltzed into the kitchen and clocked the silent stares from my boys.
My youngest broke the silence with “Mummy where are you going?”
“I’m taking you to the park.” I replied. He nodded with a slight air of respect – as much as you can get from a 3 year old and carried on eating his Cheerios.
Funny how something that seems so insignificant like wearing your best outfit on a boring old Monday can put a spring in your step and a smile in your heart. Go on, beautiful! Go put that knock ‘em dead top on and own it!
