A Day with A in London

I had an afternoon in mind for just A and me to do things I knew she would enjoy. I told her it was going to be our day of looking at expensive things on the cheap. We took the tube to London and went to the V&A Museum to look at the fashion in the museum from top designers over the years. Then we headed to Harrod’s to walk through the different designer’s boutiques there. When we passed through the Ralph Lauren boutique there was a woman probably in her early 20’s, very pretty trying on one of his floor-length gowns. She couldn’t stop walking around in it, you could tell she was just giddy that she had on this beautiful dress. Her behavior was refreshing and quite unexpected since everyone else in the store who can afford to buy the expensive stuff seems unemotional about it. Maybe they’re just medicated? We had a great day looking at things we couldn’t afford!
