no reasons needed for dressing up

so today, when i found out it was going to be 29 degrees, i was like WOOHOO! its going to be WARM!!! *sigh, anything is better than the cold teens that we've been getting here.

going out to dinner tonight with one of my guy pals whom i havent seen in aaaaaages! he's the kind of friend you can dress up for, its awesome when we attempt to "out-dress" each other, and see who shows up lookin better. hahaha, and i cant wait to show him what i've got on today. its a definite departure from my usual "sleek" "i-want-to-look-good" look and more "thrown-together-bag-lady." i am free to stuff my tummy with whatever i feel like today! theres room in these pants!!

speaking of bag ladies... im loving this dress from tom scott. its got a certain degree of versatility and customization that isnt at all intimidating or confusing.

his other stuff is really amazing too... and from the looks of these images from f/w 2006 and s/s 2007, he makes wearing your clothes backwards and inside-out look gooood.
