Getting Ready

Getting ready to go out at night...girls let me ask you--is there anything more stressful than this?!  (Ok, I may be over-exaggerating a bit, but as any girl knows, it can be a daunting task).

Should I wear this or that? 

 Does this make me look fat?  

Does this shirt match with these shoes?  

Does this outfit need a belt or necklace...and if so, what necklace...or maybe some rings and a bracelet?  

Guys wonder why it takes girls so long to get ready...it's not so much the actual "getting dressed" part, it's the decision!  And don't even get me started if you have to PACK outfits to go somewhere--it's one thing to have your entire closet at your disposal--but to have decide (sometimes days before) what you're going to want to wear out, without knowing how you're going to feel that day, is something I hate.  I am someone who needs options...even if it means packing three different pairs of heels just to decide on one to go with a specific outfit.  Again, this concept is lost on guys--but then again, do they ever really look as hot as we do? :)

Jenna and I, when together, are a mess when it comes to deciding what to wear out.  Since we are no longer "undergrads", we can't quite get away with what we used to wear (aka very little material, a lot of skin, sky-high heels).  So, how do you assemble the "perfect" going-out outfit??  Well ladies, here's my 3-step secret to looking amazing when going out: 

1.) Try on TONS of options

 2.) Pose in front of the mirror, analyzing the outfit from every angle, making sure all the parts that need to be flaunted look perfect in the chosen option :P

And finally...

3.) Depend on your friends, knowing they will not, under ANY circumstances, let you go out looking nothing but your best!  

Not matter what your age, every girl still puts a lot of thought into what she wears out!
Me and my beautiful mom, looking very stylish :)
