This outfit could very easily have been a date night outfit, but this is actually what I wore to my son’s third birthday party this past weekend. I was a major tom boy until I got college and would never be caught wearing a dress unless my mom made me. I’ve come a long way since those days. I would say I “dress up” more often than not and to events I never would have considered dressy occasions. I’ve found that dresses offer much better range of motion than pants and longer dresses are perfect for active situations. I was able to fully participate in all the activities during his party without worrying about flashing anyone. And I’ve found that dressing up really helps you approach your day in a more positive way.
