Frugal does not have to be frumpy!

Meredith's posts about feeling frugally frumpy inspired me to take a look in the mirror.

GAH! I think we all get in those funks where we take care of everybody but ourselves. I'll admit that I do not usually wear that much make up, and jeans and t-shirts are my favorite attire, but that does not mean that I have to look sloppy!

Since I was off work today for MLK day, I made an appointment at the beauty college for an eyebrow wax. I could pluck them at home for free, but it is worth the seven dollars to have somebody else do it quickly.

When I got home from the salon, I put on some of my Clinique makeup samples that my sister gave me, then put on my best jeans and a freshly ironed shirt. It was hard not to feel just a little glamorous as I went about my usual grocery shopping! Frugal does not have to be frumpy, if we take a little time to spiff ourselves up.
