participating in several activities. I showed up wearing my jeans, a fashionable ski sweater, high heeled black boots and velvet gloves with my beret, of course. Everyone was giving me a hard time for what I was wearing, especially for the high heeled boots, as I am not known among my friends and family as being a big sports participant. However, since everyone was participating, I decided to also fully participate.

One of the activities was snow tubing down a mountain in a rubber inner tube. The way it worked was that you would lay face down placing your stomach in the center of the inner tube. Then, you would push yourself down the mountain. There was going to be an award for the fastest men’s and women’s time down the course. Please note, I love awards…but, going for the fastest downhill time didn’t sound worth it to me.

I was so afraid to push myself off that someone had to push me and I went flying down the course. I was screaming at the top of my lungs, frightened that I would bang myself up against the side of the course and that would be the end of me. As it turned out, I made the fastest women’s time on the course and I believe it was all due to the aerodynamic capabilities that my high heel boots provided.

TIP: Don’t let others discourage you about your wardrobe…Embrace your Fabulousness!!!
