SMART, CUTE, FUN but SEXY????

Someone on the street just called me sexy...

Sexy is a word I haven't heard in a while actually. unless we are talking about Victoria Secret models , of course. I have heard Smart, cute, fun... but sexy? I realized that as of me being sexy, is something I forgot I could be.

I always talk about sexiness in my posts, wear the heels, wear the dress, look at yourself in the mirror before leaving the house, take care of yourself with Mani's and Pedi's, wear makeup etc etc etc. Being sexy is sometimes hard to be when you haven't slept enough,  running around all day with the kids doing errands, making sure they do their work for school, making sure they get their veggies, taking care of hubby, cooking and trying not to go crazy while you are at it. Some of us try to maintain a career while doing all this stuff also.

I forgot I can be sexy not only for myself but for the man that many years ago, swore to be with me for ever through thick and thin. Appearances are  important and of course beauty comes from inside, and this is what we teach our children, but keeping ourselves respectable is also a must.

I am not the type of girl to buy sexy lingerie and dance around in them at all. I guess if I ever did that it might feel funny. I feel my hubby would totally crack up laughing and ask me " what the hell are you doing?"  Even though I have friends that say it works like a charm. But hey I am so tired all the time now with two kids that dancing around like a dummy around the house in sexy underwear is not my thing. I am sad to say that my PJ's aren't even descent to start with. I should work on that investment.

The word sexy just hit me like a bat in the face. I thought to myself " really? I'm sexy?" I have in the past thought that my sexiness comes from my free spirited personality,goofiness, and my absolutely extroverted character. But not really from the way I look or carry myself in public. I guess I have a sexy body, because it has nothing to do with my boobs ( as I have but two mosquito bites). Was it the tight jeans I wore today? My hair down? My smile?
 I have also noticed that when I go out with my friends I work extra hard on looking like a sexy mama. Have you ever felt that you must look great when going out all girls, even more than when you have the nanny and date night lined up for Saturday night? Are girl competitive secretly even when it comes to just hanging out as girls?

Is putting more effort in making yourself look sexy on " girls night out" more than on date night make you unfaithful?
