Look good, feel good



This saying always makes me think of my roommate in college who would shower, curl her hair and put on a prom dress to take her exams.  Her reasoning was that if you look your best you will do your best.  Some connection psychologically between an effort in appearance and performance.  I never tested her theory in college (she, incidentally? always aced her exams) but I do believe there is some truth to "look good, feel good".  Especially when you don't feel like it.

Love,
Kristen

Love this of Katie.  Chugging Mucinex with showgirl makeup and hair in curlers.  She is not a quitter.

  1. Thanks for the love Dum. I got my groove on that night despite being ill, thanks to chugging that Mucinex.

    And I am with your college friend. If I get jazzed up, everything is better.

    Love,
    Katie

  2. I saw an Oprah when I was in middle school in which she discussed the connection between a woman having fresh lipstick on and feeling more calm & in control. Hence, I refresh my gloss before every meeting at work. I'm certain my male counterparts take it as a compliment even though it has absolutely nothing to do with them.

    Waiting patiently in my prom dress,
    Emily
