I have delightfully met thousands of you lovely ladies across the country, and more often than not, you presume that you will walk into a department store, look at the perfectly dressed mannequin, try on that very ensemble and look sensational, buy it with a 20-percent-off coupon (good today only!), and go home to make sexy time with your lover on a bed of rose petals.
This only happens in chick lit. Have you ever looked at the backside of a mannequin? The clothes are all completely pinned up, twisted, and pulled to look perfect. So, if the clothes on the rack don’t even look good on the proportionally “perfect” mannequin, how will they ever look perfect on you? All I’m saying is: Be aware. Nothing is as perfect as it seems.
