Grey Hot

On a trip to Sweden recently, I was faced with the unusual dilemma of being surrounded by too many good looking people. (I know, poor me.) Everywhere I looked people were too tall, too thin and way too good-looking. It was fun a first, but after a while it just got boring - until something very strange happened; I started to become attracted to the not so tall, the not so thin and yes, even the not so good-looking. The same thing has happened this year with my wardrobe. After being surrounded by so much colour over the summer, my eyes have started to wander towards a more muted (i.e., boring) palette. And nothing says "hot and boring" like good old grey. Currently my affair has only gone as far as this cool grey jacket,but I'm already eyeing off grey cardis, grey shoes, and even a saucy little grey filing cabinet at Officeworks. Somebody get me a glass of water.
