I shed my little girl sawdust and paint splattered armor.
I put on a confident and frilly woman’s dress.
I make a birthday promise to stop cursing my curves
and embrace them.
My black vintage dress makes me feel like Audrey Hepburn
with a modern women’s sensibilities.
I smile.
My new dress has a secret.
It helps women like Audrey did. Shabby Apple donates 5% of its net sales to Unitus, a non-profit organization that gives micro loans to impoverished women. These
confident women use the loans to start their own businesses to better
themselves, their families, and the world around them.
All the outside world sees is my pretty birthday frock.
And I’m OK with that.
