It has recently come to my attention that I haven't any idea of what I look like. I have a vague idea that I have a blocky, mostly undifferentiated body, with the exception of a pair of incongruously comic-book breasts. I am informed that this is not, in fact, true.

I've been dressing to reflect what I perceive as a lack of physical interestingness, occasionally choosing to accent the tits I see as my only noteworthy feature, but generally trying not to call attention to myself in any way.

So I have a question for people who do know what I look like. If you had my body, what would you wear? What should I be wearing that I'm not? What am I wearing that I absolutely shouldn't?

Any honest input is appreciated.

Being a pants kind of girl myself, I can't really chime in on the whole skirt thing, other than to say that you looked quite stunning in that pink leather outfit you wore at SPiRaL once, but that's hardly appropriate for day-to-day, much less your office...or is it? *stratches head* Also, the red dress you wore last year? Equally stunning.

What I would suggest is a shopping expidition...not to actually buy anything, but to try on different things and then see how they look in a full-length mirror. Try to find a store that has mirrors by the windows, and go during the day, so you'll get an idea of how the clothes look on you in natural light, too. Take a notepad with you, and an impartial observer or two, to note what you and they like and do not like.

There's also a Torrid relatively close to you....in Independence, MO. (www.torrid.com then click on "find a store"). An ex-friend of mine shopped there whenever she could, and found some amazing things.

And you do have lovely legs, dear.
