baffling office wear
ok, now for the majority of my career at my current workplace i committed fashion crime after fashion crime. over the years i was like a parade of all the hapless fashion victims that have found their way to WNTW-- all in one person. i will admit it. it was bad.
but i have reformed (or have tried to), and i'm going to take the liberty today of sharing with you something very odd that occured in the fashion life of my office today.
a woman (whom i do not know), very very petite. perfectly groomed, cute short blonde hair and nice makeup. and then...
a t-shirt that was easily a 3X Long. It reached past her knees, and was wide enough that i could have fit in there with her. white, with a design on the front that i didn't catch.
black leggings. skin tight. i think there may have been white socks and an athletic shoe. possibly a tight black shirt under the voluminous t-shirt.
now, people at my workplace do work out-- we have a gym. this could have been workout wear, but workout wear typically does not make its way past the gym locker room.
(with the exception of one man who wears a gray, oversized sweatshirt and baggy, faded-wash jeans to work every day.)
myabe there was a reason. maybe she had a fashion disaster after arriving at work and only had time to change into whatever was in her gym bag, not go home and change. who knows. see? i said it was baffling.
i also think this is a woman who normally dresses very well. given that she apparently works on my hall, i am sure i have run into her in the bathroom. for sure i'll be noticing from here on out what she's wearing.
??????????????????
