Planning the outfit!

I have a meet up today with a friend.  He's one of those friends that you know he likes you but you don't like him in that way.  You don't want to look attractive and give them the wrong impression however you do want to feel like if a guy saw you from across the room he would take notice of you and think 'wow'.  Where does it start...what do you where to look sexy but not that sexy that he gets the wrong impression?

I went to a colleagues wedding reception earlier this month...that was one hell of a planning for an outfit.  I bought the shoes before anything else (I couldn't resist them, so cute), then spent the rest of the week looking for something to where on my top and bottom halves.  Thing is...I knew it when I saw it first time but was determined to get a dress not a top.  Alas I ended up with the top.

There's also the going to work thing.  I personally don't like waring anything attractive to work because I don't want people to actually see me.  They know me because of the brains I have (I know I have brains...shock horror) not because of the clothes that I ware and the lack of brains I have.  One of my friend keeps pointing out things that she thinks would make me look sexy at work...what if I don't want to look sexy at work?  My job is a hands on job that means bending and lifting boxes and walking around a lot so putting on a dress and heels isn't really practical.  You can still look attractive in a vest top and black trousers.

There is also the 'going to see family' outfit.  I think out of all the 'planning for an outfit's' this is the worst one yet.  I've got on my clothes that I'm comfy in then mum will mention 'not those jeans again, they look awful' or something to that effect then I will go into my room and look at, try on and take off every single item of clothing I have till I find my room looking a mess and I have my mum shouting at me telling me we have to leave.  I end up putting on the things that I started with in the first place with a different pair of jeans on or something like that feeling worse than when I started but apparently looking better.

Till next time
