I’m a simple woman with simple pleasures. It doesn’t take a whole lot to impress me. Rather than making a fuss over me, I’d rather you sit down and quietly talk to me, or just share a quiet moment with me in the same space.
I don’t go in for a lot of frippery. You won’t find me bedazzled, bewigged or bespangled. Oh sure, my makeup will look just right, but I’m more at home in Chucks than high heels (even when the high heels are bright orange).
It’s like these shoes. They’re little more than canvas, cotton, and rubber, but the bright red colour adds just the right amount of punch to catch your eye. I may not demand a lot of attention; in fact, I usually demand little attention at all. I’d rather you catch me out of the corner of your eye, or lean in close as I drop a witty comment that only we can hear.
Mine is not a flashy beauty. My beauty is commonplace, familiar, well-worn, and comfortable, just like a pair of bright red Chucks.
