Do I LOOK like I have a plunger?

Blog Guy, you’ve helped others with specific fashion problems, so here I go. I’m a female janitor, and my profession isn’t exactly known for high fashion. I work in a nice pre-war building in Manhattan, so I want to dress like it. I also want a more glamorous title than janitor.

I love it! Now about the wardrobe…

I think you’ll find what you need in a Barcelona fashion show last week. This outfit makes a bold statement: “Your kitchen sink is stopped up? Wash your dishes in the toilet!” Or maybe it says,”A whole twenty bucks for a Christmas tip? YOU keep it, hotshot!”

Thank you SO MUCH, Blog Guy! I’d like to fix your broken window for you…

But?

I’m too well-dressed…
