Help. Its waiting just out your front door!

This morning I was obnoxiously late for work. I got in at 10:30AM. Late. Tardy. Setting a bad example. Yes, I know.

But we had a rooftop party last night at the office that I was incharge of, so I had good reason to come to work late this morning. Although this was not the reason.

I had serious warddrobe issues this morning. A new dress I bought a few weeks ago needed to be adjusted, and I had forgotten about it... plus, I thought I could jimmy it myself. No such luck on the last part.

From bobby pins to safety pins to changing accessories, nothing was going to make this look better. So what did I do?

I grabbed my stuff for work and ran out the door....

...around the corner and into Meurice's, a tailor shop. In five minutes, after disrobing, throwing him my dress through the curtain and saying "fix this!", I was once again headed to work but in a dress that fit.

I may find NYC frustrating, but the ease of getting things done? Priceless.
