Lots of things make me happy. A new project, a poem, a new tune for a lyric, friends, blog love, a good discussion, a new idea...But there is a certain, (shallow) kind of satisfaction that only a red dress brings. In the shops, orange and pink might seem like worthy alternatives, but once you get them home, they never really cut it. They are red pretenders. I want the real thing.
I currently have 4 red dresses in circulation. Ideally, I'd have one for every day of the week. But... as two are going-out dresses, such a wardrobe achievement is a long way off. The other night I bought my first winter-ish red dress. With back tights and skivvy it could potentially be worn all year round. What more would I need for a full and complete life?

ReplyDeleteOops, went to edit/delete and something else happened!? But red is probably not my dress colour of choice since I like to hide away unnoticed in the corner...
ReplyDeleteSo what colour do you wear?
ReplyDeleteA little black dress is nice.
ReplyDeleteI agree. Red is a colour for extraverts. I wear black too!
ReplyDeleteIt's hard not to feel confident in something red... Though my choice is red shoes :)
ReplyDeleteDid somebody start shallow week without telling me?
ReplyDeleteI think you should get a red dress Nathan. It'd be fetching.
ReplyDeleteBlack makes me look sick! I've only been confident enough to wear red in the last couple of years. I've even splurged out on a red trench coat this season.
