love love love. it really does send a message to those around you when you make yourself presentable. my sister and I laugh every year at the idea of carefully planning an outfit and doing our hair and makeup for Thanksgiving dinner at home, yet we do it anyway, because we want to tell our family that they are worth our time and effort. when I used to go to a 6am daily Mass, I always planned my outfit and hair the night before so that I would never have to show up to church in a "thoughtless" outfit. it's something we owe to both God and neighbor

Yes, me too! We always dress up for family holiday dinners and it makes me sad when relatives come in their sweats… especially after the days of planning and cooking that went into creating a lovely, festive atmosphere.
