Time For Fun

What is the best reason to dress up? To please ourselves. To add happiness to our lives. That's my belief, anyway.

I'm coming off a hard week, full of contentious court appearances. I'm utterly wiped out, physically and emotionally. What can cure that? Fashion. Wearing pretty clothes that inject joy into my veins. I'm a fashion-junkie.

Here's today's playful creation. I like the flirty dress, rich purple tones (echoed in my lippy) and feminine poses. I snagged a sparkly little bag and hat at Urban Outfitters, rare accessories for me.

Thoughts?

  2. Oh my gosh! The whole outfit is very cute but I LOVE that hat! You are a hat woman for sure.

    I'm glad you have a way of dealing with all that stress.

    Hope this week is a bit more easy going for you.

  3. You look lovely in this PANK colour, Ally, but I agree with Suzanne - that hat is awesome on you!

    I will be doing some fashion therapy in my closet tonight to gird myself for the coming week. Good luck, my friend.

  5. It is really amazing how much stress we have in doing what we do and just like you I find that getting my 'girl' on is the #1 stress reliever. After some tough court appearances, especially during a trial, I find that getting dressed as pretty as possible just makes the stress melt away. I had a recent 5 week trial, which as you know, requires long days and devoted weekends and almost all weekend long I was dressed as I prepped for further days in court.

  6. Sorry to hear you've had a rough week. I find that fashion is a great stress reliever too. I always feel better when I'm wearing something colourful. Speaking of colour, I love the pink accents in your outfit. That little dress is very cute - and very you - and I adore the necklace and hat! xxx

  11. I am sorry your week was hard! This is a very cute and very you outfit, it even matches your blog! I am a sucker for flare skirts/dresses in general. The hat reminds me of Lorelei Gilmore!

    I forgot to mention that we answered your horror motorcycle question in our Escape Room post. It was a good question and I figured others might chime in with suggestions. The only one I have seen is Mandy, but there are a few out there! I hope this week is better for you.
