dressing up

There just comes a time in a lady’s life that she wants to dress up. When I was a kid, I would throw tantrum whenever mom practically forces me to wear a dress for an event. It felt like wearing shame itself. haha. Even in my high school and college days, I seldom wear dresses. I have always been comfortable with jeans and shirt and my ever-dependable Birkenstock. But I no longer despise dresses as much as I did as a child.

But when I had my first boyfriend, I started appreciating dresses, especially when I realized he appreciates me more when I wear one. Kidding! Of course, my day-to-day clothes remain the comfortable ones, but there are rare days when I just want to dress up, and from time to time, to look like a girl. =)

Whenever I go to malls, I appreciate the dresses on display, especially the simple, oldish-look, the bohemian, and the unique ones. I also fancy the weird ones. haha. Sometimes though, I search for women’s apparel online and look for comfy but fabulous dresses. There a bunch of clothes to choose from, and my eyes delight on seeing them. On special occasions, I dream of wearing one. Though at times, it makes one feel good wearing a nice, not-your-average-day clothes on an average day, like the delight you get from eating ice cream!
