Considering we're actually in a nice place we should make the most of it. I'm shopping. Since I don't have my best friend it'd be nice to have someone else to shop with.

[ She means it nicer than it sounds, it's just a Lydia thing. Shopping is definitely more fun with others ]

Anyone can come. I'll text you the shop.

[ And she actually means anyone. She won't deprive someone of shopping, she'll just deal with the 'no killing' if she has to ]

action.

[ And now that she's sent the invitation out Lydia gets back to the task at hand: black boots or brown boots?

She'd been looking at the clothes a few moments before, and judging by the handful of coat hangers she's carrying it has been going well. Obviously. But now she just needs shoes to go with it ]

Thanks. [ At the compliment. A flash of a smile. ]

You know, my adopted mom and I used to shop in places like this. She was insistent that I dress well.

It wasn't bad advice. If you're not especially pretty then good clothes can still make all the difference, but you're pretty, it just adds to what's already there.

[ Blonde version or red head, they both worked ]

Which means that you get to just relax and look fabulous.

She was really rich. Old money. The kind where keeping up appearances is everything.
