dressing up again

We got another opportunity to fancy up last night for a 60th bash for a work friend of Clint's. Thought we should catch it on camera as proof

Ozzy didn't want to be left out of the photos either

This is my new Veronica Maine dress that I am loving right now. And those heels made plenty of holes in the lawn at the party - whoopsy. Do you like how Ozzy modelled his paws next to mine! Probably should have gotten a tan (the spray on kind not the skin cancer kind) None the less we felt swanky and like grown ups again for a little while.

This morning it was straight back to reality and off the a 2 year olds birthday party. No heels just every style of Havaianas and crocs on display.

Happy birthday lovely boy. Hope you enjoyed the party and presents. We are glad to have you in the family

Finding reasons to dress up

I am generally a very casual kinda girl. I think in all honesty I find not only comfort in a pair of jeans and tee, but also a little bit of security. The funny thing though is that inside my head, my personality and the way I see myself is not a jeans and tee person at all. 

I am most certainly not all glitter and sparkle or over the top, but I do like to look pretty and dress up. So lately at every given opportunity I have tried to do it - get dressed up that is!

Last night we attended a cousins engagement party so heels and a dress were not out of place and I loved every minute of it. And even though this morning - the morning after - I am feeling tired and cranky at Clint for being hungover, I find myself going through my diary checking for the next event I can get tarted up for. 

The next time I think will be a 3 year old's birthday party! Stuff it if the kids are getting dressed up so am I!

Interesting how only now in my 30's I am embracing my girlyness.

Anyone else feel like this too?
