Are YOU Fabulous? Do you long to be?

I like to think I am, but if you look at me, that's probably not the first thing you think of. Perhaps, instead, you'd think... conscientious, reserved, or down-to-earth. And you'd be correct. I am all of those things and proud of it. But do you ever long to step outside yourself for a while and be someone else? I do. I've felt that way off and on throughout my life, and more often since the birth of my daughter.

Maybe that's why I'm a Kimora Lee Simmons fan (re: my post from yesterday), because she is so very fabulous. I look at her and my inner vixen screams to be released from its ordinary cell. For half an hour I watch her show and am convinced I can be like her with just a bit of effort. Ok, maybe a little more effort than that. I married an entrepreneur. Check. Together we had a beautiful daughter we adore. Check. I'm a partner in the business. Check. I'm a gorgeous amazon of a woman. Um, no check.

Well, she does have a great clothing line that reeks with promise for a sub-urban mama like myself. I think if I get a pair of baby phat boots like these, my inner vixen would explode with joy at having finally been set free. And my husband would likely scream as well. We can't talk about that on this blog though.

How many other moms are out there, wanting with all their hearts to be fabulous too? I know I'm not alone. (And think of all the dads, wishing for the same thing.) I know my happiness is not tied to any material thing, but I do know the power of clothing and its ability to transform you, if only for a short time.

Honey, if you're reading this, I promise if you let me get these fabulous baby phat boots, though spendy, they will be worth each and every penny benjamin.
