i love this quote by coco chanel!
a lot of people i know think i'm weird for always going out dressed to the nines no matter where i'm going. i wear nice clothes even when i'm just walking vito to and from school. the thing is, i don't see a reason why i shouldn't dress up.
why shouldn't i make the effort to look fab? what if i meet someone who could be a potential client, employer or business contact? what if i see a former classmate? or a former student? or even (horrors!) an ex boyfriend?
growing up, my sister and i had a standard reply whenever mommy would rebuke us for always worrying about how we looked. "but what will my public say?" -- one of us would burst out. (ok so delusions of grandeur run in our family, but you already know that.) but dressing up IS important. it shows that you care, that you have respect for the people or person that you're meeting or for the place you're going to. and most importantly, it shows that you have respect for yourself as well.
dressing for destiny

i 100% agree! =) and when we make an effort to look good, we'd also feel good about ourselves.
you're right, we should not let others be mortified with how we look and be the reason for them to commit sin =P
me too.. i do not like feeling trapo. this goes with working out, too..
hahahahaha! i love your replies! =)
mai, we're the same, even when i work out, i want to be matchy matchy. i don't wear rags even if i work out in the privacy of my bedroom.
