So I've just posted about how infatuated I am with one of my daughter's dresses.
The realisation that had I seen this dress hanging on a rail in the shops I'd probably just discount it as being too simple, "Nah, nothing special. Move on". Now I realise that picking out those items that are the real winners, the standout drop dead head turners is a skill many GG's have that I've yet to fully develop.
As I say in the post, on the hanger this dress just looked nothing special. Being able to visulalise what it'll look like on, to know it's well worth a try on, well I can see it's something I'm going to need to work on.
I believe I can put together a good outfit. I've an eye for colours that work well together. Things complement each other and not clash but knowing that something like this LBD would be such a winner, well it's been a bit of a revelation.
Have you ever surprised yourself by trying something on more out of curiosity that anything to find you've hit on a real find. Can you spot that gorgeous little number hiding on the rail that everyone else walks by?
Any how, in the future I won't be going shopping, I'll be enhancing my skill set.
