I cannot believe The Captain. I was walking down the stairs with Laura, carrying various trays drinks from a meeting I'd been 'waitressing' for, when he cheerfully said 'Oh, look at you two! Is that fancy dress?'.
Fancy dress? At this point I need to describe our respective outfits. Today, I'm wearing a black pencil skirt, with a bow on the waistband, a red-and-white stripy top, red patent shoes. Laura is proudly sporting a new black and white A-line dress from Warehouse. She's also wearing red shoes, but hers are flat and I am, of course, walking in heels. I think I look pretty smart, dammit. When I got into the office this morning, Nadine commented that I looked 'very French' (I am not French), because, of course, all French people wear stripey tops on a regular basis.
Fancy dress though? If I didn't know The Captain very well by now, I'd think he's being an arsehole. But after all, he's the man who once said 'blow job' instead of 'blow-dry', so what do we expect? He meant it as a compliment - that is the terrifying thought. The man is a human gaffe machine.
It's been a shit day - and our patience has been tested several times as we carried tray after tray of food and refreshments up and down three flights of stairs. The Captain's well-meaning misjudged compliment was the proverbial icing on the cake. We quickly retreated into the galley where we made several rude gestures pointed at the floors above.
Great blogging about fancy dress. Continue with the good work.

. They must look if it is made of good quality and materials because you will not only use it once or more. You will use Adult Fancy Dress Costumes for many times. You must also see to it that the costume can be used on various occasions. It must fit no matter what the occasion may be for it.
