Shopping frustration
Oct. 29th, 2023 12:12 amWith the choir performance in November and the requirement that we wear "black, festive, not shoulder-free, short or glittering" (the men are to wear black trousers, black jacket, white dress shirt, and a black bow tie, and Gwydion is complaining that blue does not count as white and purple does not count as black), it has become high time to find something to wear. Ceridwen, singing tenor, has to dress like the men. She managed to borrow a shirt, but does not have a bow tie nor a suit nor a black jacket or even a blazer. So today we set out to find one. Which was complicated by the fact that Ceridwen is curvy (fortunately, she's tall), and cannot wear standard sizes, be they male or female. ( Cut for me being annoyed with the universe again. )
I'm luckier with my size and with some old pieces in my wardrobe and a shirt from the second hand store I could assemble something very black and quite impressive. Which is good because I'm not the one with an amazing voice, and need to compensate. :-S
