Hello everyone! Yes, I’m still alive and kicking. I’m sure all of you tens of my readers were wondering what happened to me (chuckles). Well, between a hectic life and hosting out-of-town visitors, my days fled by in a dizzying rush. I’m still trying to catch my breath around here. Phew! Hope all of you had a fantabulous weekend.
Funny story about this outfit. A week ago, I wore it to a meeting. Afterwards, a colleague came to me and said, “love the outfit. Were you going for a J.Crew look? Is it J.Crew?” I giggled and replied: “really!? No, but thank you!” I thought, ‘Uh?! Au contraire, mon ami, J.Crew didn’t even cross my mind when I put it together.’ She immediately uttered: “Oh, I mean that as a compliment, because I love J.Crew so much that years ago when my best girlfriend was into the Gothic look when it wasn’t so popular – I remember bringing her a J.Crew catalog to help her transition her look to theJ.Crew style.” Now, I did not for one second take offense to that for I do love J.Crew. In fact, I thought, why doesn’t that comment come from J.Crew itself so I can get offered a modeling gig for their petite line. Ahem, did you hear that J.Crew? Call me, because I just inadvertently gave you a free promotional shout out by my ensemble choice. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again here: that it goes to show by your choice of clothing, you unwittingly send a message to onlookers who judge things according to their face value – affecting the impact you have on people you meet and how they treat you. So, what does your choice of clothing reveal about you?
