One year of Marriage

Monday, April 13, 2009
April 11th was the one year anniversary of my husband and I getting married (legally). We had a civil ceremony prior to getting married in my parent's backyard in August.  The biggest thing marriage has taught me is patience, tolerance, and how to dress better. My husband is very concerned with "dressing for success" and with the way people carry themselves. Before I met him, I was a "t-shirt and jeans" kind of girl. He is a manager and dresses to the 9's. I like to dress comfortably but like my face and hair to look nice. I got a new job as senior level management and he took me shopping and helped me choose clothes that would make me "look the part". God bless him because people always compliment me on how nice my outfits are and how "well put together" I look - especially my boss. I told her once that my husband is a fashionista and helps me decide what clothes to buy, as he is the guy who wears cufflinks and suits. So, whenever I have a particularly nice outfit on, she says "Did your husband buy that for you? Your husband did a good!" Personally, I still prefer my comfy clothes, but I must agree that professionally, his suggestions have really helped me in my position, dramatically! Next up, I think I might start getting mani-pedi's and facials on a more routine basis :)
