All Dressed Up
All Dressed UpAre you someone that feels like you have to have a reason to get dressed up?
Maybe your “special” clothes don’t feel good enough for running errands, going out for lunch, or working from home.
I feel ya.
But have you ever dressed up just for the fun of it?
Getting dressed up can make you feel confident and put-together, even if you’re just staying in. It can also be a fun way to express yourself and your style. And who knows, you might even feel inspired to do something special after you get dressed up!
Here’s an outfit I recently put on just for the heck of it and some takeaways for how you can easily incorporate fancy clothes into your everyday wardrobe.
How I Wear My Fancy Clothes Every Day
My outfit started with this pretty pastel green top that I thrifted on a whim. It feels so ethereal and feminine!
I don’t have any specific plans coming up that required a blouse like it but I figured I would make an occasion. These photos ended up being the occasion!
This color combination popped into my head and I was so excited to try it out. It was one of the rare times when an outfit in my head looked exactly how I thought it would.
What do you think of this mint green and magenta combo? Would you wear it?
The Benefits of Wearing Fancy Clothes
While I do hope to wear this outfit out someday, even just putting it on for these photos made me feel good!
It was also a fun creative exercise for me (my favorite form of exercise), it inspired me to look up nearby events in my area that I could wear it to, and it made every mundane task around my house feel like something important was happening.
