Ever get super excited to wear a new outfit?

[StephanieCLT]

So this morning, I did a little browsing at a local thrift store. I found a cool, black Banana Republic shift dress. I am going to pair with a bright pink sweater, and then I found a cool, matching pink jeweled statement necklace. I think I'm going to wear all of it with black knee high boots (3" block heel) and black subtle fishnets to give it a little flare. What do you think?

I'm planning on wearing this shopping and for dinner in Seattle next week. I think it will work, given the trendiness of the city. Have you ever gotten an outfit that you couldn't wait to wear?

P.S. I got the dress, sweater and necklace for $8.66!

[Macey]

OMG yes! I do most of my shopping on-line and it is so hard when a new dress arrives on … say … a Tuesday, but I wait until Saturday to get all dolled up in it for when my wife gets home to see me in it for the first time :)

[missjoann49]

I always love new clothing...enjoy and have a great time

[Elizabeth G]

I absolutely get excited about new outfits and it sounds like you put together a great one. I thought I was a thrifty shopper but you really scored!

[Tracii G]

Sure do.

[Majella St Gerard]

Yes all the time.

Stephanie,
It's great to shop for an outfit when you know you have somewhere a little special to wear it . The Xmas party will be something special the outfit is already sorted , can't wait !!

[ToniG]

Yes!! For my limited blk fri shopping--- picked up four nice tops, blk slip, two scarves, gray purse, hangars-- all for less than 20 dollars! Cant wait to get some more bulbs for the lamps so I can take photos!! Combined with the skirts & slacks on hand-- the new tops will increase "outfit combos" by 12 or more! Like most of us---was trying-on outfits right away soon as I got home!! :) Toni G..

I wear outfits and I serve lewks. Outfits are fun but mundane. When I put together a gag-worthy lewk is when I get super excited to wear something.

[Stephanie47]

Of course silly! All girls long to wear something new. Why else would they buy it? What are your plans for Seattle?

[kimdl93]

Of course. Today, I received two new tops and a holiday dress. I was super excited to try them on!

[JocelynJames]

Yup. I may have favorites, but when something is new I can hardly wait.

[StephanieCLT]

Nothing more than I mentioned. I'll be there for work, and then I'd like to get out for some shopping one of the evenings and hopefully dinner after that.

[suzanne]

Oh, for sure! In fact, if I don't feel that way when I try it on in store, I don't bother buying it. I just love how a dress or outfit can bring out an emotional response in me. I that's a part of retail therapy.

[LydiaL]

Micki has got me on this serving lewks thing. After too much time spent googling definitions, I still do not get it.

I know, a generational thing. Guess I will just concentrate on new outfits that make me feel "groovy", or at least "hip"!

[ReychelleC]

If I've scored a nice pair of pumps at the thrift store while in guy mode I sometimes slip them on in the parking lot before driving home. Getting the guy shoes back on before getting out can be tricky if you have a smaller car. I found steering wheels are harder than faces.....

[Amelie]

Not so much an outfit but shoes. I have very few shoes, maybe 5 pairs and 3 pair of them are sneakers. So it's kind of a big deal to me when I buy a pair of shoes. I need winter boots cause of all the snow up here, maybe that's what I'll get myself for Xmas.

[Janine cd]

I found a dress at our local GoodWill store that matched perfectly
With a pair of shoes that I had purchased a week before. The feeling was estatic.

[Jane G]

Hell yes. Is there any better feeling than a new dress? and a bargain at that.:)

[Beverley Sims]

I would always race at breakneck speed to try a new outfit I had bought.

[Jess S.]

Everytime!
Yesterday I was welcomed by a Amazon bag by the door instantly makes the day better.

[Stacy Darling]

If the anticipation doesn't kill me first!

I love a new outfit , Who doesn't!

I'm waiting on some flair leg yoga pants and top, a rare online purchase which is still a day or so away. Just exited to be me when dressed!
Stacy!

[~Joanne~]

I can't remember a time when I bought something new and didn't want to race back and try it on lol

[Patience]

I’m often excited, very rarely super excited.

[Ameli]

I hope that we get to see the outfit in action when you’re in Seattle

[phili]

Twice, at the same thrift store- discovering an outfit I had only dreamed of finding, and once I put it on, I wouldn't take it off- had them remove the security device from the hems and rip off the price tag, and I wore it out, stuffing my incoming outfit in my purse!

I treasure those two days, and my heart is in my throat even now when I put those dresses on.

I have had really good luck finding things, and I feel that rush of excitement often in the dressing rooms, when I see myself as I always hoped I could look. Worst case I am just very happy with my purchases and look forward to getting home and altering them a bit to fit- but that still qualifies as excitement in my life as well!

[ladydreamingdanish]

I tried a few times to try on clothes, using the excuse that I am the same size as sister and wanted to surprise her with a new outfit. Not a good reception, only sneering. Once I tried as my feminine self and I was embarassed by being checked on in the dressing room, so much for privacy. So I usually buy a new dress or skirt andtry on at home. Can't wait to see hwo it will look good on me. Recently bought a new skirt with some tops, plus an off shoulder black dress. Hard sometimes when my top half is one size and my bottom half is another.

[StephanieCLT]

Sure! I will post pictures.

[Alice Torn]

Always. Even guy stuff some!

[Karmen]

Of course. Even with male stuff. But with women's clothes or shoes is even more intense. I just can't help myself from wearing them as soon as possible. I often put new shoes on in my car and drive home like that.

[alwayshave]

Stephanie, I always get excited to wear a new outfit.

[Alisonforme]

Only every time I get a new outfit! Does anyone NOT get excited??

[sometimes_miss]

Absolutely. EVery time I buy an outfit online, I anxiously check to track the shipment, to see when it will arrive. Then the big day comes, the package arrives, and I eagerly take it home, rip it open, spread it all out on my bed, take off all my boy clothes and get dressed in all my pretty girl things. When it all fits just right, nothing in the world feels better.

Yes! That exactly :)

[stephenie3756]

Everytime! I can't wait to get home and try on my new dress/outfit/heels/etc. Later, when I look at my outfits, that feeling of what it was like to put the outfit on for the first time comes back. Makes it nearly impossible to pack for a trip since I want to take everything on my trip. How can I leave this LBD behind? Or this one? Or this bodycon dress? Hence, I always end up overpacking... :)

[honey1036]

everytime!!!! i mean... who doesnt :)

[Cheryl T]

Of course.
Whether it's a new pair of shoes, a pretty top or skirt, or just some new lingerie it's always a bit exciting the first time I wear them.

[sara66]

It’s like junkie getting hit. The prettier and frilly the more I look foreword to it.

[JaytoJillian]

Well, let me think...yah.

[faltenrock]

Yes, yes...I get super excited when I bought a new item and can't wait to wear it out. Sometimes I buy a piece, a dress or skirt and pay for it and got back to the fitting room to change into the new dress and go out the store. Of course in those events I've been dressed completely before as female.

[rockerreds]

Yes, indeed!

[Jeanettew]

Every time I just have to try it on the first minute I can

[StephanieCLT]

Sure! I will post pictures.

OK, pictures have been posted in the Gallery section, if you haven't seen them. It did turn out to be one of my favorite outfits of all time!

[t-girlxsophie]

Everytime especially when I wear it out in public

Sophie

[Asew]

All the time for the fun girl clothes. Never for the boring boy clothes.

[Judy-Somthing]

At this point in my CD life I only Dress if I have a new outfit or wig or maybe a new makeup idea!

[abby054]

That describes every item that I own as I acquired it.

[Roxanne Lanyon]

Oh my, YES! YES! YES!

[Rachelish]

Absolutely, yes, and usually whatever the latest purchase is becomes a favourite for a while - until the next one arrives :)

[BrendaPDX]

I think your outfit sounds great! I have to go look at your picture post. Yes I have had an outfit that I couldn't wait to try on, straight home, run into the house and tear into that bag. $8.66 what a steal! Good for you. Now I have to go look for your post:)
