Why not?

Today I'm wearing a long-sleeved red lumberjack plaid shirt with the sleeves rolled up to my elbows under a short-sleeved red v-neck sweater. Which caused Maggie to incredulously exclaim, "Are you wearing plaid and a sweater?" upon my entrance to the office this morning.

Yes, yes I am.

I'm not in love with this outfit, but there's something funky/retro/nerdy about it that just works for me.

Upon now realizing that most of my 6 (is that being optimistic?) faithful readers don't give a toad's toe about my wardrobe choices, I have decided that I will now continue on in the same vein.

Well, 'cause I can. It's my blog.

This week, I've been super giggly and happy and ridiculous. I feel creative, and adventurous.

My funky/nerdy/retro clothing reflects that.

I'm taking a chance.

Sure, it just involves pulling a few things out of my over-stuffed closet and putting them on.

Sure, it's just clothing.

But it's a reflection of me, and of how I feel.

And today it reflects that I'm bold and a little ridiculous.

I like that.

Even if I did switch out my sassy shoes (a pair of red stilettos), for a pair that's far more sensible (read: comfortable), even if they're black.
