The dressing room is a fascinating place for me. I promise I really am minding my own business but it’s hard not to listen to the questions women ask as they look for validation in their shopping choices. Most often these questions put a shopping buddy in the most awkward of positions. So, when shopping with a friend, do you tell the truth or sugarcoat the situation?
Today the question I heard was “Be honest, on a scale of 1 to 10 can I pull off this bathing suit bottom?” The friend waits a few too many seconds and responds, “Well you can and you can’t.”
I didn’t see the alleged suit bottom but let’s be honest—it is difficult to be completely honest with a friend about an article of clothing you just don’t think is right for them.
What do you say when a friend looks to you to validate something that just doesn’t look that great?
