I was having a conversation with one of my coworkers and shared one of my philosophies about getting dressed for the day. Happy dress = HAPPINESS! I dress for how I WANT to feel in the mornings, even when that morning seems blah. When I go about the rest of my day, I’m “dressed for success” in happiness so to say. {BTW, what goes on during the morning before work is a mad rush to get everything together which is usually why I’m wearing a dress (no matching) that makes me feel happy and put together.}
The Style Rx: Dress for happiness by grabbing a “happy piece” in your closet! What makes you feel like a million bucks? WEAR IT and go on with your day!
I wore this outfit to meet the designer, Nanette Lepore, at Neiman Marcus. I was so tired and really nervous (I’ve been a fan of her since forever) that morning. This floral skirt always makes me smile, and I feel really confident when wearing it… so voila! The skirt went off the hanger and on to me with a bow-front blouse for a brunch.
My coworker had never really thought about dressing in this way. What about you? Do you dress for happiness? What’s your secret weapon piece in your closet?
Happiness is a state of mind. It’s just according to the way you look at things. – Walt Disney
