On her blog, Hanne Blank talked about going through her closet and evaluating her workout gear. Ha! About the only thing I've found myself wearing lately is yoga pants. I live in Los Angeles and can totally get away with it. Even after getting rid the grubbies I have a stack of black yoga pants that mimics the Tower of Pisa. Starting tomorrow, I am going to limit my yoga pant wearing to exercise.
Just a few years ago I was featured in a USA Today Weekend Edition as a "Super Mom" and wrote on beauty. Let's not get into the fact that when they saw my snapshot they decided not to send a photographer to do a shoot. But, what has happened to me? Why the hell isn't my inner beauty shining?
While I haven't found the on-line post of the issue, I did find an humorous blog in response to it. Just to let you know- I was the "Let Your Inner Beauty Shine" super mom. I guess I am just going to have to take a photo of my hard copy.
I digress. For the next 98 days I will dress for work. Okay, I might dress in Yoga Pants on Mondays, when we have an hour long dance class by another amazing woman, Jane Glaser from The Los Angeles Music Center, but only if I really plan to dance, really dance. Oh, and on Thursdays, but only if I keep my promise and go walking with the walking group after school. And...but...if... only.... This may be the most challenging New Body Practice!
I'll just put it out there that I am continually amazed and impressed by the clothing choices you make- silouettes and patterns I would never wear in a million years. For me it has little to do with body-image and more about wanting to be completely invisible so no hot chick dresses, no patterns.
