At the store recomnded by giddo-san, I purchased several shirts and other items, which essentially marked the end of my clothing shopping.
Most of the clothes I wear on a daily basis are made by Alice, so I only need to buy a small amount. When Kaori-san saw the prices at the store, she seed bewildered…… though it didn’t show on her face, her emotions of confusion were conveyed through Sympathy Magic, so I offered to pay the bill.
Lately, I feel like my monetary sensibility has been getting skewed. While prices in the tens of thousands for a full outfit would be considered luxury brand-level and objectively quite expensive, I’ve grown used to far higher sums.
The most recent clothes I purchased were formal attire and accessories for Mitsunaga-kun’s wedding, as well as custom-made outfits from Alice for the ship party, each of which easily cost more than a white gold coin. Compared to that, Kaori-san’s reaction is perfectly reasonable.
Anyhow, with my shopping done, I decided to check out what others were up to, starting with Akane-san, who caught my eye.
[Akane-san, are you going to buy that outfit?]
[Hmm, not sure~~ What do you think? Does it suit ?]
[Akane-san, you’re great at pulling off any look, so I’m sure it would suit you…… But sohow, I feel like this isn’t quite your style.]
[Hou~~ Interesting. Then, what kind of clothes do you think fit my style?]
Akane-san typically wears leopard-print outerwear, which she herself claims is for codic effect. Still, she manages to blend a bit of gyaru-style flashiness with her fashionability, giving her a knack for picking the right shirts and accessories.
So, while I think Akane-san is the type who can stylishly pull off any outfit she chooses, my impression is that the style of clothing in this store doesn't quite match her personal taste.
When I said that, Akane-san looked at with curiosity before smirking teasingly and asking a question.
[Just a hunch, but I think you like clothes that leave a strong impression at first glance. Not necessarily flashy, but sothing unique enough to draw people's attention in. Maybe it’s because you’re a company's Chairman? Wearing morable outfits might make it easier for others to rember your face during negotiations…… But, well, that’s just my guess though.]
[Ohh~~ you’re sharp. Seriously, are you so kind of reincarnated sage? You’ve even got my personal preferences figured out huh~~]
Hearing my words, Akane-san chuckled and nudged lightly with her elbow. Judging by her reaction, it seed my guess hit the mark.
[See, first impressions matter. You rembered when we passed each other, thanks to my outfit and speech style. Having a morable presence is definitely an advantage in business. When soone’s deciding who to pitch a deal to, it’s easier for them to recall soone who left quite the impression on them. Fufufu, I’m quite the calculated businesswoman, aren’t I?]
[That’s true. But well, I think personal taste plays a big role too……]
[You really get …… Well, fashion is power, you know? I’m not into elegant, reserved outfits. This store has so great pieces, and I’m planning to grab a few for loungewear…… but when it cos to going out, I want sothing bold and flashy. Like a shirt with a massive leopard print, being the fierce leopard lady would be quite interesting, isn't it? Yeah, I might have that custom-made again~~]
Akane-san, now seeming a bit more cheerful than before, picked up several shirts she said were for loungewear and asked for my opinion on them.
Giving Akane-san my honest thoughts, just like that, I enjoyed chatting and shopping with her for a while.
