fashion faux pas

I go down to Bellmarc’s main office for another training session.  Again, I think about the dress for success model they’ve proposed.  But it’s only training.  No customers involved.  I should be fine in casual clothes.

I throw on my black leggings with a nice cashmere sweater.  The woman I’m meeting with, if I were to guess, pretty much hates me.  I think I’ve offered too many suggestions for improvements on the training videos.  I also don’t agree with the selection strategy of the exercise I’m supposed to do, but say nothing about that.

But she is very helpful.  She spends a couple of hours with me taking me through the listings and how to filter.  It’s a great session and something I definitely will need to know.

I get home and am on the phone with Meredith.  As she is telling me something, I notice that the seams on the back of the leggings I’m wearing feel thicker than I remember them feeling.  Hmmm.  And I don’t remember there being a big seam running from the middle of my stomach, straight down and around to the middle of the waist band in the back.


As Meredith is speaking, I burst out laughing.  My pants are on inside out.  I am so concerned with wearing the right clothes and I don’t even put them on right. Thank G-d I got my boots on the right feet.
