A poll of sorts

[sombrefan]

So I was getting a suit for the wedding at what you would call an exclusive old fashioned gentlemen's store and the assistant told me I had perfect shoulders (that people would exercise to get). Never been told that before, twas a nice compliment.

So when ever you've been to a tailors/clothing store/dressmakers etc, have you ever had a part of your body complimented by the shop assistant?

Only when they wanted a date

So was the assistant male or female?

Male. Older Male. He already had the sale, which he knew. And I have to agree, Simon has perfect shoulders.

There was the time...

last year when I was trying on a shirt that had a tied waist. After deciding to buy it I took it to the checkout and the sales assistant commented that I had a very small waist. My friend P immediately replied with "she makes up for it by having a big mouth."

Complimented and poked fun at in one day, definitely a record for me. :-P

They always compliment my hair, which is long, curly and unmanageable. They even compliment it when it's not me trying something on.

I like your icon, where is it from?

[frances-lievens.livejournal.com]

It's one of the photographs on the CD Profools from Daan. I cropped it so I had only Daan's head showing and that's the only thing I did with it.

Daan's website: http://www.daan.be (unfortunately only stuff from his latest CD Victory and it's predecessor Bridgeburner and nothing on Profools, but worth a look.)

Daan is also the front man of Dead Man Ray: http://www.deadmanray.com

P.S.: Where does your icon come from? I'm sure I know that guy, but can't place him...

Oh thanks for the info. I shall look at those sites later (marking to do now).

And that's Morrissey in my icon :).
