I think the word “waft” is also a danger sign indicative of unrealistic thought processes.

@DollyMixtureLulus At least you don't look like a lab technician, or a mad scientist! Smile

Had a very short hair cut (number 4) grey as a badger too. Not allowed to dye, so in my infinite wisdom decided to dig out some vegetable red hair colour. Bright, short, pink hair 🤣🤣 i looked like swan vesta match

Its not that bad maybe too much together but bottoms with long top would look fine and top be great with pencil skirt

I often try dresses on and find there are strange lumps in them that weren’t there on the hanger

My mum bought a brown leather cross body bag that she thought looked chic. I asked her if she could take it all the way to Mordor; young Frodo.

My dad had a jacket he liked but I told him it looked like a dog blanket

Maybe I’m the mean one Grin

I love them and have held onto them, but he did make me doubt them.
I have been given two pairs of Vivienne Westwood sling backs, turqoise, orange which he thinks are cool. men
