It never really dawned on me, until I had a call with a particularly shy sissy, that some of you out there may feel like you are “dressed up with nowhere to go”. For the shy sissy, perhaps a girlfriend to accompany you to different places would be nice. If you want to try a good first outing, how about the local cafe or coffee shop? Does being completely decked out, in front of strangers make you feel faint? First order of business is to breathe!

After you catch your breath, remember  this is a test run. You are with your gal pal having a casual coffee. There is nothing to worry about because you are dressed perfectly for the occasion. A few people here and there may glance in your direction, but they are smiling with slight nods of approval. Savor the feeling of being out with a friend enjoying yourself. Think of the next pretty outfit you will wear. Where will you go?
