As I was walking through my parking garage at work today, a complete stranger came up to me and said, "Can I ask you something? Do I look tacky?"
"I'm sorry?" I asked confusedly.
"Is this outfit tacky?" she said.
"No, you look nice," I said.
"Are these purple shoes ok with this outfit?" she said.
"Yes, they are exactly the pop of color you needed for your outfit," I said. (She was wearing a black top and a black bias-cut skirt with a white stripe through it, and deep purple heels.)
Very strange. And yet, I was somewhat disappointed that she wasn't horribly dressed. Oh how many times have I wished strangers would ask me for fashion advice. There have been plenty of times I could have helped a girl out, but it just wasn't appropriate to do so. I definitely think more complete strangers should start asking me for fashion advice.
