When You go out for the very first Time in, Like, Years…

I peered into my dirty wardrobe this morning since tomorrow night I’m going out for the very first time in a billion years! I extremely quickly realized that the small sub-section that had, at one time in my life, been reserved for “going out clothes,” has disappeared.

Poof!

I don’t understand when it disappeared or where it went, however it’s gone. So I don’t understand what I’m going to wear, which appears to be a recurring style in my life these days…

My good friends Naaman, Cindy as well as I are getting together tomorrow night to go out dancing, which we utilized to do together all the time back in the day (we even took hip-hop dance classes together). most of the time it was to some bit hole-in-the-wall location that played truly great music, as well as we’d dance our butts off for hours as well as just sweat. It. Out.

It was like our version of SoulCycle before SoulCycle was a thing, except with a $5 cover fee as well as free glasses of water at the bar.

I never used anything as well elegant or scandalous. I usually used cargo pants (cringes) or Adidas track pants — basically, baggy pants, a storage tank top as well as a pair of shell-toe shoes.

So, like one of the background dancers in this Mariah Carey video…

I desire I understood where all those cargo pants went… They’re gone, baby, gone! I half-jokingly texted the team to state that I’d most likely end up using what I wear to spin class, however now that I believe about it…black high-waisted leggings as well as my prince tee noise like a legitimate option.

Maybe if I add hoops, my “weekend errands” Sauncony tennies as well as a faux-leather jacket, I can make it look purposeful? I dunno… I’m truly NOT that concerned, however it’s just funny to me that I utilized to have a part of my wardrobe devoted to Saturday night adventures, as well as now I have a section devoted to black as well as gray tops that conceal feline fur well.

As for the makeup…girl, you understand I got that covered. ? since I expect to be sweating for hours, as well as the space will be dark, I’m not even gonna put in that much effort. just sweat-proof versions of the basics.

Brows — MAC Brow Sculpt as well as benefit remove brow gel

Waterproof mascara — MAC In additional dimension waterproof

Black liquid liner — Tom Ford, obvs

Lips — perhaps likewise a bright liquid lipstick (hot pink?) since I’ve been itching to wear To Matte With like (one of the MAC vintage Mattes), however I may just go with MAC Relentlessly Red since it’s one of my faves, as well as I don’t wear it enough.

Skin — I’ll most likely just do a bit MAC pro Longwear under my eyes, however that’s it… Eh, perhaps likewise some deal with as well as Body. We’ll see. I understand that both can withstand legitimate sweat situations.

I can’t wait! I’m looking ahead it. We’re going to this location I’ve never been called Public works in SF, as well as the style of the evening is traditional Hop Hop Night, where a DJ will be playing hip-hop hits from 1979-1999 (I know, so specific), so it should be fun.

Hey, you know, if I can just show up NOT in pajamas, it’ll be a major accomplishment, LOL!
