I wanted to write some of my own thoughts, about the amount of time, energy, finances, and planning it takes to dress (everyday). I recently had a run of consults every day, along with several family obligations, and a 10 week old puppy. I found myself, getting overwhelmed when I had not planned ahead on what I was wearing each day while seeing 4 different clients for 2 days per client, having my hair trimmed, coloured, and conditioned, doing my nails, and not having the best colour of hose to wear, with a white outfit that got blue ink on it; and going to the dermatologist to get a sun spot taken off my arm, not having a purse to match my shoes. This includes also needing to iron my causal day time jeans and blouses, and running to the shoe repair to get my leather purses cleaned, and tips put on my heels, and to pick up several items at the drug store, needed for makeup and skin issues (which is never under $100.00 for one drug store run).
