Dress Yourself Better When Your Are Sick – A Theory

Emma Batchelor Leave a Comment

  I have been sick for almost a month now and during my lengthy illness, I have had the time to develop a theory. It might just be possible to dress yourself better. Of course, I’m not implying that fashion can replace antibiotics or that vivid eyeshadow can act as a stand-in for decongestants, but in their way they can work their own kind of magic. My normal inclination when I am feeling unwell is to slip into one of my dressing gowns and snuggle up. This is all well and good for a weekend, or a week at a… Continue Reading →

Emma Batchelor Leave a Comment

I think everyone must have quite different first impressions of me.  … Continue Reading →
