"Oh this is just a casual thing, you didn't need to dress up."

Shut UP. I am so tired of this narrative that nice clothes and make up are a special thing only for the ~fanciest~ occasions and not worth the effort normally. I love having fun with fashion and make up. I love expressing myself with bold colors and fabulous fits. Yes it is effort but it is a JOY not a burden. I don't want to do it every single day but if you give me an event where I can get away with dressing up you bet I'm going to show up looking fabulous.

#Im going to a play with a friend in an hour and I look divine #I know Im going to get an earful about how I really didnt need to dress so fancy #but I had so much fun getting ready and am excited to go out in it #I have a policy that if I have to go into work on my off days (happening more frequently sadly)#Im gonna dress up and have fun #bc just showing up in sweatpants and an oversized tshirt is only gonna make me more sad to be there #meanwhile if I'm storming in wearing a frilly skirt and a banging top #I feel happy and confident #Ive been a dress up girlie since the age of 0 #let me have funnnn
