purple shoes

I had another clothing dream last night. I was going to go somewhere with my parents, sister, and grandmother. Oddly, I think it was some sort of party or club--not the sort of event or place that my parents would be interested in (although the sense was that it was very innocent and kosher). I ended up picking out a white dress that was strangely reminiscent of one I had when I was 13, some purple shoes (chosen over some red ones that I actually have), and I was verifying that the grey cardigan I recently knit would look okay over the dress if it got cold. The weird thing was that, again, I was very happy with my choices and had already packed an overnight bag with things that I was sure were going to meet any unforeseen needs. I think it's weird that my subconscious is repeating these common dream themes, but with a different mood than normal. Nothing has happened in my life that I can think of that would make my subconscious less stressed or more confident than usual. I also wonder why I've been younger, skinnier, and prettier in these last few dreams.

Oh, and there were contact lenses in the dream too--the only angsty part. I took out my contacts (4 of them! - ?) and accidentally put all of them in the same side of the case. They clung together and I was worried that I wouldn't be able to get them back apart.

Purple

Last night's dreams were all pretty strange, but perhaps the most surreal moment was when my neighbor, her boyfriend, and Snoop Dogg (I think) came into my apartment all dressed in purple and wanting my opinion on the clothes they were going to wear to a wedding they were in.

My neighbor's boyfriend was in a royal purple, crushed velour vest with a lavender shirt and a baby blue tie. He had matching royal purple slacks. My neighbor was wearing something similar, also royal purple, but it was more of a crushed velour jumper. Snoop Dogg had on a royal purple top, but lavender slacks.

My neighbors were the ones in the wedding; I guess Snoop Dogg was just there to help them model clothes. He seemed a little sensitive when I asked something like, "Do you all have lavender pants--?"

I think the wedding was to be that afternoon, and my neighbors were kind of freaking out about what would look best. I did like the suit with the vest and tie, and remembered thinking it was interesting to assign a color or material (crushed velour?) to your wedding party, and then let them go wild and surprise you.
