Tonight I went shopping for a new wardrobe. My friend Stephanie started the process, about a week ago, when she took me to Macy’s during the lunch hour. “Here, buy this. And this. And this. Aaah … fabulous!”
They were fabulous, but they were just two outfits. I needed more.
So I wandered into a shop tonight and asked a clerk for help. Soon, there were three clerks and two shoppers helping me create a whole new look.
I have often enjoyed good service in clothing stores, and I have enjoyed the girl-thing that happens among confident women, albeit strangers, in a dressing room. But I don’t think I’ve ever been cognizantly grateful for it. Tonight I am.
Here’s to women helping women leap beyond the comfort of blue jeans and button down blouses. And here’s to stepping out in a gorgeous pair of boots!
