subtle

As I think its wise not to stand out in a crowd I always go for the slightly understated look. something that enables me to blend in. I like to be un-noticed hence the reason why I always choose a very subtle outfit something that wont ruffle feathers or draw attention to myself. So that's why I chose the rather dowdy outfit above to walk the densely populated brick lane!

 

With a few yards of my walking away from my car two lads mentioned how good I looked. my reply in a not so girlie voice came as a shock to them I think lol,

I carried on my journey to my destination at one point a well dressed woman in her 30s with a mobile phone to her ear walked towards me, I moved to the side to let her pass. As she did she turned and said " I love your look very nice" or something similar.

As you would expect I was on cloud nine by this point two comments both good and not a single bad look from anywhere,

Looks like my subtle outfit was working a dream.

As I drew closer to the venue I was heading for, a bunch of smartly dressed lads from I suspect the city walked past me and I heard a couple say "I would" while they looked back at me. yeah I smiled in that knowing way and walked on lol.

A few more comments happened one " Nice hat" and another " like your style" Were directed at this dowdily ( is that spelt right?) dressed T girl.

OK I admit I wore what I wore to make an impression but I never thought for a second total strangers in the street would walk upto me and say such nice things.

 

People can be nice after all :-)

 

Part three the exhibition to follow.
