Every morning, my route to my office from the bus involves walking through the lobby of another building on campus. This morning, as I was trundling through, one of the receptionists (a tall, striking young lady who looked like she could be Tyra Bank's sister) stopped me.

"Girl, I see you every day, and I just have to tell you you have the best style I've ever seen! It looks good on you - you're like a modern Mary Poppins! Work it!"

And then she snapped her fingers in the air. No, I'm not kidding. Full-on finger snap in the air. I don't think I'd ever seen that done in a non-ironic fashion.

I smiled, said "Thank you very much!", and walked to my building, trying not to giggle. But it was a nice way to start my work day.

I've never gotten one before! I've had drag queens come up to me and exclaim (in tones of envy) "You're a real girl, aren't you?", but that's completely different.

Just the usual sort of stuff for me. Black jacket, black skirt with stripey ruffles, top hat. I'll try to get the Stroppy One to take a photo when I get home tonight.

Truthfully, there are only two modes of fashion I can picture you in:
Your usual attire, and old school punk. ;)
If I saw you on the street dressed in society clone wear, I would have trouble recognising you.
Four click Zorro Snap for you grrl!!
