Stepping Outside the Box - the red dress

This past weekend, I went English tall boot shopping with a friend and came home with a red dress and black two inch heels (not to be worn together). Definitely an outside of the box shopping day for me. I am quite comfortable in a dress as well as two inch heels. But, this particular dress, red, halter-top style is different than the typical dress I have worn. I tried it on at Diann's urging. And, at first I was skeptical. But soon the dress "wore" on me and I liked it - the way it felt and the different look it gave me.It is good to stretch our boundaries and do things we don't normally do. Sometimes, one step can open up an entirely different world and take us places we have never been. I don't expect the red dress will necessarily be one of those steps, but it is fun. And, life is about having fun!
