| Attention to Detail! |
| 03.17.06 (1:57 pm) [edit] |
It takes all kinds of people to make up this world. There are the laid-back people, who probably have a whale of a time feeling relaxed & not stressing about anything - which just makes it worse for the particular people, those who give attention to detail! If the world didn't have people who paid attention to details, we'd be in an even worse mess! A world populated only by laid back people wouldn't have any 5 star + resorts is my guess, because who would have made sure that everything was taken care of, that all needs - & wants - were met, that everything was spotless & in pristine condition? Then again, perhaps nobody would mourn the lack of 5 star plus resorts, because the entire population would be so laid back that even a primitive camping trip would be fun fun fun enough! As one of my favourite school teachers, who taught me during my first three years of primary school, said when I visited her as an adult: "You always were a fussy little thing!" :-) Here's how to request the perfect suit by email, courtesy of moi, aujourd'hui: "Hello ********, I live in very-hot-most-of-the-year *******, ******* Qld, & am in need of a summerweight skirt suit suitable for board meetings. I prefer natural fibre, eg linen, cotton, rayon, tencel, hemp (if that's not scratchy?), & if possible, I like to have some stretch in my clothing, eg from elastane. I'd like the skirt to be straight, with some elastic in the waist, & mid calf length. I'm about 5'6", 165cm tall. I usually fit into a size ** skirt, but prefer a larger top so that it's not too clingy. I'm about **" **" **", which in cm is: ***, ***, ***. I prefer my tops to come down & cover my derriere, so they need to be about 80cm or longer from mid shoulder. I like to wear dark colours, eg navy blue, charcoal, chocolate brown, perhaps a dark green. I don't like anything close to my neck - but I don't want to show cleavage either, & I don't want to have to wear a top under the suit top, because it's too hot for that here. I need the sleeves to be 3/4 length - to cover my elbows. My ideal skirt would have a covered pleat rather than a slit, but I realise I'd be lucky to find that. I of course don't want the skirt nor the top to be lined - because it's too hot for that here, plus most lining doesn't stretch. I prefer not to have overly large buttons on my clothes. Are you able to help me, do you think? If so, would you please email me photos of likely candidates? Thank-you, Regards, Bronwyn." Do you get the picture, that it's HOT where I live?! :-) I absolutely love gorgeous clothing & shoes! However, it is very hard to find them in my size, especially at a reasonable price. For example, I took my mother on a shopping spree at a couple of chain stores recently, which were having great sales. I bought her I think it was seven items - which altogether cost less than one of the skirts I bought for myself in a local boutique! This is a rough rendition of my appearance, but my hair is longer & my feet larger:  My point is that in large sizes, clothing & shoes are not readily available, large ladies can't just waltz in to any clothing or shoe shop & expect to get clothed & shod. The clothes & shoes that are available are either ugly, unflattering, or uncomfortable - or very expensive if beautiful, flattering & comfortable! More of approximately what I look like:  I just about d r o o l looking at suits here, check it out!
