Two days have come and gone since I last posted.  Still wearing dresses and still enjoying it.  Thursday was a super busy day -cleaning house and putting away Christmas.  I have to disclose that I did get right out of bed and get busy, so for the bulk of the day, I was cleaning in my pajamas.  I didn't want to take time to change knowing that I would have to get ready for basketball games later that afternoon.  There is nothing I hate more than getting ready twice in one day.  When the work was all done, this is what I wore to the games.





I keep thinking layers, because it is so cold.  I felt a little weird wearing a dress to the games.  I kept waiting for someone to ask me what meeting or viewing I'd been to, but it didn't happen.  It didn't seem to affect my spectating experience.  I still cheered the same.  I do have to say that I was more mindful of the way I was sitting, realizing that if I wasn't careful, people across the gym from me might see more than just the game.

Yesterday, I got right up and got dressed in my dress.....house dress, that is.  The one I wore is probably my favorite.  I got it off of ebay a few years back and have always wanted to wear it but haven't until now.  I think I like it because it has a little more detail and is more structured than a lot of my other house dresses.  I actually wore it grocery shopping and didn't feel too out of place.  I did notice one lady looking me up and down like "what the heck are you wearing?".  I did wear it with leggings and boots because it is so cold right now, so maybe it wasn't so fashionably correct.  Anyway, I've decided a great way to describe my look is Granny Chic - kind of an oxymoron, I guess.


So another day is awaiting me.  My dilemma today - what to wear to a half dozen basketball games.  It seems like I have work dresses or fancy dresses and not much in between.  I have to figure out some casual dresses.  Maybe some skirts are in order.

  1. Love the pairing of the leggings and boots with the dresses. You are far from anything my Granny wore--and she was a stylish woman. Let's just stick with "chic".

  2. Kayla, you're so cute! I love the "granny-chic" comment, too! I figure if you are comfortable, then that is all that matters.. I have always "hated" wearing dresses, so I will live vicariously through you! You look great, and I hope you enjoy your journey! :O)

  3. Thanks girls!! After I made my "granny chic" comment, I realized that both of my children's grandmothers are very chic and calling it an oxymoron might not be fair. I was definitely comfy and I am happy that maybe I didn't look ridiculous to everyone. ;)
