Girls Write Out
Tuesday, May 17, 2011
Not many of us get this dressed up. We girls only do it once a year at the ACFW Conference. But spring is here and it's time to look at summer clothes. Maybe some capris and cut tops.

I've realized that what a person wears tells a lot about who they are. I use this in my books. Do they wear T-shirt with their jeans or a beaded sweater with glitter? Do they wear heels with their jeans or tennis shoes? Or maybe even cowboy boots? (I've found a new favorite jean too. Not Your Daughter's Jeans. Oh my gosh, they fit like a second skin. LOVE them!)

The book that's coming out next, Lonestar Angel, stars Eden who wouldn't be caught dead in a pair of jeans. She associates jeans with the ones she wore as a kid. They were ripped and too short, and she wants to convey an image that's professional and competent.

So help me out here. What do you wear and what do you think it says about you? I'll go first. Hmm, I wear boot cut jeans because it balances the hip. :) And I wear mules on my feet and not tennis shoes because it makes me look thinner. My height isn't cut off by the blocky tennis shoes. My favorite top is a v-neck with 3/4" sleeves. And as I'm typing all this out, I realize that I don't dress for comfort, I dress to look as thin as possible. Sheesh, until I started this blog, I didn't even realize how much I do this. LOL I think I need therapy.

Your turn. Tell me your favorite outfit and why you like it. What do you think it says about you? And I just might use it in a book. :)
