Word for the Day: Adorable!

Nine and a half out of ten days, I’m rocking a basic level of cuteness. I’m always color-coordinated. I never leave the house without my earrings, my fragrance and at least a splash of make-up (unless I’m working out). There are some days however, when I up the ante. Today was one of those days. I was, in a word, ADORABLE!

Flash back to Mother’s Day. Since my mother is dead and I’m not a mother, I avoid the usual Mother’s Day haunts like the plague. I don’t do church or restaurants on that day. So, I found myself at the mall with my friend Katrina (she doesn’t have kids either and her mom lives across the country). Despite the fact that both of us are currently in a state of extreme “financial embarrassment,” as my grandmother would call it, we decided to do a little retail therapy anyway.

Not trying to break the bank, we got some cute little sundresses on sale at Old Navy. Very reasonable. I go a cute white dress and a funky hot pink number.

I hadn’t worn either one and last night I decided to wear the white one today. I did a little Audrey Hepburn do, swept up with a bouncy bang, broke out some white wedge heeled sandals and some silver accessories. As I stepped back from the mirror, I had just one word “WOW.”

I got oodles of compliments when I went to volunteer today. Then, I had to stop by Katrina’s job so that she could bask in the aura of my adorableness. She saw me and in a word, “WOW.” I looked damn good and I felt damn good. I haven’t felt this good since 25 pounds ago. Who knew I could rock this kind of cuteness as a fat ass!

Tomorrow is Sex and the City night. I’ve got another outfit on tap complete with killer red heels.

The word for tomorrow: HOT!
