Confession # 57
I have gotten into the habit of buying a new outfit for every event I attend.
For instance, I am going to San Francisco Magazine's annual Best of the Bay Party this week.
The ad for this event reads like this:
DRESS: Fix up, look sharp, get sexy!
It is like an order to go shopping!
So I picked out my sexiest shoes, a strappy sandal in gold, and set out on my mission. Now I know what you are thinking, ‘If she has the shoes doesn't she have the outfit?'
Not necessarily… Sometimes the shoes just call to me, and the outfit will follow, but in this case I do. I bought the gold strappy sandals to go with a floor length flesh-tone colored gown covered with gold beads and sequence. I am going to wear that to a party at the Bubble Lounge later this month. I just decided to debut the shoes first and break them in at the Best of the Bay party. Make sense, right? I can wear the same shoes more than once in a month, but not the same dress. Play along.
So over the past week I have been tearing through stores, Banana Republic, Kenneth Cole, bebe, Nordstrom, any place that had sexy in the window. I finally found a dress yesterday at Macy’s. It is a low cut, floral print, silk chiffon dress that hits just below the knee in the front and has a short but sweet little train in the back. It goes perfectly the brugundy strappy sandals and dangling earrings I bought yesterday too.
When and what is my next event? Saturday! I am gong on a Casino Cruise on the bay. But don’t worry I got an outfit for that while I was out too, it will go perfectly with my black boots. ;-)

You know, it would be REALLY cool to get some cryptic pictures to go along with some of these posts. (Because you have time to take pictures when you are dressed sexy!...RIGHT.)
You know, like at the party...a picture of some twirling skirts with fancy shoes or pictures of a group of people holding wine glasses (of course you would NEVER show their faces, because that would require a signed release form in MY state)...or something of that nature. I just think it would add a hint of realism, like we were there...although....I can relate to many of your posts.
Hope all is well!
