Day 15
Pussy bow blouse
Tight khaki cropped trousers
Grey peep toe stilettos
The half way point…What have I learnt?
1)
Boys
are not afraid of a strong solid colour
2)
Yes, pencil skirts may be sexy, but they also slow me down
3)
A
flash of foot vamp between the end of your trousers and the start of your shoe does look quite sexy actually.
4)
The boys
prefer a delicate heel.
Is it 2 weeks that addicts find the most difficult point to
get over?
I am now seriously having ‘style gubbins’ withdrawal.
I am thinking of registering this at the centre for tropical
diseases.
Working in fashion ain’t helping. I feel like a diabetic in a sweet
shop...
Looking at my favourite blogs and mags is giving me clothes
envy and it’s really starting to affect my moods.
I’m definitely eating more and going out less.
I’m starting
to feel like that last bit of orange squash you use when you know that there’s
not really enough left for a full glass…..but you try to stretch it anyway…
Diluted.
Today I am wearing a pussy bow blouse.
It may be vintage.
It may be vintage Gucci.
…But it is still a pussy bow blouse.
Visually this is a big change and it triggers responses.
My Creative Director says. ‘You look nice again today, but how do you
feel?..Are you OK?’
Maybe the look on my face says it all. Miserable.
Our comms assistant says: ‘You look very grown up
today’.
Really?, I feel
soooo boring.
One of the girls at work asks me where my trousers are from. She says she thinks ‘they’re
hot’....
At this stage, I would pay her to take them off me.
I go to see our Yvonna, our retoucher for a meeting. She cranes her
neck up the stairs to see what I’m wearing. ‘What have you got on? She says
excitedly.
‘Wow’ she says when I get
to the office door. ‘You’re soooo…’ she reaches for the words…’pared
back.
‘Yeah.’ I mumble ‘So far out of my comfort zone, I’m sending
for search and rescue’.
Well, I’ve got to suck it up.
….Must….Get…Though….This…
Like Daniel Beddingfield.
…or a Thundercat in crisis.
