Today is my rare skirt day.

Yeah, I usually stick to my black-on-black simply because I don't want to mess with trying to coordinate something for half an hour each morning. Today, however, is a bit different. Freshly shaved gams and a decent pedicure leftover from my brother's wedding last week prompted the wardrobe switch. After spending the morning in the building, though, I was reminded why I normally didn't wear stuff like this to work. It's freezing in here!

Why do we women sometimes feel utterly compelled to dress up? Pull out the eye shadow? I'm not sure why I do. Somedays it's fun for me; others, just another routine that eventually gets put on the backburner for a bit until I shake out of my just-get-through-today cycle again. I do know that I love to be inspired by my girlfriends and the seemingly effortless ways they do their hair, eyes, and wardrobe.

I think I'm wanting to be a girly-girl but don't know how!
