I’m not a saint.
Far from it. But then you all know this fact, some more than others, I dare say.
I have been reminded of my lack of sartorial elegance by this morning’s annual troll through the jumpers initiative.
It’s autumn and the jumpers and cardigans have been released from their shelves again, but this time it’s for my counselling day, where I need to look suitably professional but relaxed enough to trust.
Finding a suitable jumper without the obligatory food stains down the front has proved to be a difficult task.
I’m annoyed by my own slutty behaviour!
For even after washing several still have the ghosts of gravy and soup once enjoyed !
Eventually I found a rather nice blue arran, but alas, this had a doggy rip in the sleeve so I eventually settled for a Scandinavian number in blue
I say, old chap! Very nice. Just the right look for a professional counsellor.
ReplyDeleteI like those Jumpers, this one has a beautiful Number in Blue.
ReplyDeleteVery trustworthy and stylish.
ReplyDeleteYou don't want to look like Giles Brandreth, or even like Val Doonican; somewhere in between!
ReplyDeletePerfect. Charmaine
ReplyDeleteNice. Time to invest in some adult sized bibs? Mind you, I can't talk. I constantly have food down my front! xx
ReplyDeleteI honestly can't remember what my counsellors wore but I do remember how good they were (or not), I especially remember how they made me feel. I can remember feeling so much more positive after the 50 minutes with the good ones. Carole R.
ReplyDeleteI think that male counsellors should wear maroon corduroy smoking jackets with beige shirts and spotted silk cravats. Downstairs - formal grey trousers and brogues.
ReplyDeleteI am surprised that this important personal presentation aspect was not covered in the course you undertook.
I doubt your patients/clients will notice what you're wearing. People wrapped up in their own misery see nothing beyond themselves.
