aight, so i was sittin in the nail salon gettin my nails done and eye-ballin the other ladies there.......an older lady(gma old), two middle aged women, one "classy" and the other more "casual", and then this chic.........now ladies i understand the concept that if what u put on in the mornin makes u feel sexy then so b it. cause its all about confidence, and if u feel good then u will exude confidence and sex appeal. however, this chic was wearing a black knit sweater with gray and white stripes(horizontal), black velvet pants and HUGE chunk soled shoes that laced up. i couldnt help but keep lookin at her and wondering what the hell about that outfit would make her feel confident and sexy??? and u could tell she did, her hair was done up real nice and make-up, the whole nine. she had her nails painted blue (which i didnt have a problem with, i like funky) but then she had my usual nail tech air brush 2 black bats, yeah those winged creatures that come out at nite, on each nail. hmmm i was intrigued and so i checked out the other ladies a lil more closely......."gma" was typical, french manicure, lil pants and a red sweatshirt, earrings and a lil lipstick---nice for older. "casual" had red nails with a bird lookin thing air brushed on, jeans, sweatshirt, oversized coat hangin on her, smackin her gum---ok for gettin ur nails done, runnin errands, etc. "classy" looked like she had just got off work at the office---nothin to say bout that. me, i had navy blue pants on with a fleece shirt, hair pulled back like i usually do and a lil mascara on, heeled boots---coulda been cuter, but ok for gettin nails done. all of this had me thinkin that its really something what we as women individually find "cute" or "sexy" or even "appropriate" on ourselves. then i thought, well maybe its just b/c i live in a small "hick town". we dont have fancy stores to shop at. and 9 times outta 10 the women u c runnin around r either dressed in pajamas or sweats. is it sad that most of the women around here rnt motivated to dress "nicer", except the teenage girls---they dress like hookers tryin to sell somethin they dont have.
one time my x husband made a comment to me about how all he ever saw me in were my scrubs for work or pjs when i got home. he had asked me y it was that i had all these clothes that i never wore. well back then i was workin day shift so i got up and put scrubs on, i would come home, wash off the grime i got on me at work and put on pjs----wheres the sense in puttin on civilian clothes when in a few hours i would b goin to bed? now, i work second shift so i get up and am faced with the same situation---y put on civilian clothes for a few hours when ill just have to change into scrubs? i dont know about u, but i dont particularly like doing 20 loads of laundry. but believe me, when im out and about i make sure that i am dressed appropriately for w/e it is that im goin to b doin. maybe women think that once they snag a man they dont feel it necessary to try to impress anyone? cause i do notice a difference when i am out and about---usually the chics, no matter the age, who r single dress a lil nicer than the ones that r taken. and u can usually tell the chics that have had a man for some time, cause they dress a lil different than the ones that r in a new relationship. i know that society has implanted within us the need to use clothing, make-up, perfume and hair to attract and even deter mates, but when i get dressed im not thinkin about that sort of thing, i dress for myself. maybe that is my answer.....the women around here dress for themselves and not everyone else. u dont need an outfit to say "hey i got it" or "yeah, i own this" it just helps ;) cause i own everything in this damn town no matter what im lookin like!! hahaha
