We celebrated our 50th day in school on Friday. So we all were asked to dress like we are from the 50's. Last year I put on a sweet little retro dress and pearls. I watched Youtube to learn how to put pin curls in my hair. I was perfectly 'Leave it to Beaver' sweet. Last year I was traveling from the middle school to the elementary. I got the phone call right before my travel that my daughter was sick. I showed up looking like I just got done dusting the drapes and making homemade chocolate chip cookies to pick her up. I was not able to celebrate the fun day with Hassan...
This year was different. Instead of the fancy dress I chose to try a working woman look. I was thinking about "I Love Lucy" look or the Rosie the Riveter (even though she was more late 1940's).
After I was all done with my get up I looked int he mirror and saw more of a Tupac Shakur look. I finished the look with some working boots and rolled up jeans. I had a blast with the day. The kids didn't recognize me. I love this elementary dress up thing. It's so easy to get a genuine smile from these young kiddos.
