As regular readers here will know my opportunities to shop enfemme are limited so in the past it was a case of updating my wardrobe so I've always been a selective rather than an impulse buyer. Things I know I'll wear for more than a try on in front of a mirror. These will get worn for all to see.
Spending time shopping for me also serves another purpose in that it's a form of socialising. SO's, other shoppers allow me to interact with others while enfemme. Hard to explain but it sort of makes Helen into more or a real person. I'm doing what women do as part of their daily lives.
It feels liberating to do. To be me doing all the usual and normal things. Shopping facilitates other things, travelling on public transport, grabbing something to eat in a cafe, normal everyday stuff. It's as much a means to an end as a single standalone activity.
