Lookin’ Nice
Most women like to look nice. Most women/girls care about their appearances. We usually enjoy getting new clothes and finding different things to do with our hair and make-up. Of course there are some that say they don’t care but a lot of them are unhappy with their appearances in general and don’t have the confidence to try and turn it around. I think a lot of those women eventually do. Of course money has a role- it is somewhat expensive to stay trendy and it is time-consuming. Those lacking in one or both areas tend to let their appearances go. There are other exceptions but I’m talking about the women I know. Mood plays a role too, when I’m tired or sick I don’t really worry with looking me best, but if I try to look nice despite feeling cruddy- I usually feel better.
Now some guys will flatter themselves and think us ladies are dolling up for them. In my opinion most women don’t dress to impress men. I will even go a step further and say I feel sorry for women who do dress for men’s attention.
Not to say we don’t want to impress our husbands but mine likes me super casual and that just isn’t fun for me all the time (thought it sure is nice knowing he appreciates the more “real” me when I don’t have the energy to try).
What do you think?

I like to dress my best too...but I rarely do since I have the option of wearing jeans and a tshirt every day to work. I usually don't mess with makeup at work or my hair (I am trying to let it grow out/it's in a funny stage). After I get home from school I work out so I am usually grungy and sweaty or in my pajamas by the time my hubby gets home. He doesn't mind, and that works out! I don't dress to impress men, I really never have. That is just not my mind-set or intention...even when I was single. I like to feel good about myself and not look sloppy. Of course on the weekends if we go out, I will get dressed up. :) That is why i am looking forward to our Christmas party so I can get decked out. YAY!
See guys can get so confused. I've heard from more than one guy that girls like to look nice to get attention from guys and I think that is just screwed up. I'm glad you see it my way. Its like saying there's a problem with you if you like to look nice.
I love my down days too and my hubby sees me mostly casual because I have to change when I get home- lately I've been wearing this long PJ thing that isn't all that attractive but is totally comfortable. He doesn't seem to mind. That or the tried and true drawstring pants and a t-shirt. At least I upgraded the pants a month ago to a non-droopy drawer type (he wasn't a fan of those).
I can't wait to dress up for the party either. Too fun!
I do think that most women dress up to impress other women. Sometimes they do it for the attention of guys but mostly they do it to try to make other women jealous and want what they have on.
I can wear what ever I want to work but most days I try to look nice. It makes me feel better. Plus, that way if I want to do anything after work I look nice.
But, usually when I get home I change. And when I go out I dress up, I got to look good at the club! :)
Duck, I've been quoting that Don't Judge Me episode too- too funny!!!
