Now?

While the message of women rallying in these tough times gets me in my core, I'm not so sure I feel like donning "somber tweeds" to show my perseverance.

Of course it's hot here in Atlanta. At the moment, the thought of tweed anything makes me chafe.

I get it though and I'll keep an open mind come fall. And, of course, Scarlett O'Hara had much the same attitude: Appear like you want to be (although my personal favorite was Carol Burnett wearing her curtain-rod headdress in "Went with the Wind").

Do we all have to wear shoulder pads though?
