Truly. Beca...Everything is going to be all right. Truly. Because people are interested in you, not your clothes. Wearing a nice dress at a fancy bash--that's something for you, not something that other people need.<br />I've come to the conclusion (tested at various high profile get-togethers around the world), that if your hair doesn't unduly draw attention to itself, your makeup is age-appropriate and your lipstick is red, no one really cares what you are wearing as long as it is black and fits well. <br />Personally, I usually wear a tailored black suit and black heels everywhere I go (including fancy dinners where everyone else is wearing white tie) and no one has given me the stink eye (well, except for that time in Stockholm, but that's kind of a special story). <br />I also hear that expensive call girls dress exclusively in suits these days and who should know better what appeals than expensive call girls?<br />So. It's going to be fine. Groom well, ensure your clothes are clean, wear your intelligence on your skin and you'll be fine.Ruby2https://www.blogger.com/profile/17511546580101628194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7038815217243908035.post-36181419111363794092015-07-20T11:11:22.532-07:002015-07-20T11:11:22.532-07:00I am a card carrying member of the "always a ...I am a card carrying member of the "always a servant and never the princess" club so I get what you're saying.

You're wonderful and a great writer. ��Calhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09508162510106530655noreply@blogger.com
