WLW: Ashley Monroe - Dear Diary -Entry VI Dear Diary, This evening’s customer walked in wearing an oversized cream blazer over a little black dress and carrying herself like somebody who was used to getting exactly what she wanted. Tall brunette. Soft curls. Diamond earrings. And this calm little smile that kept making me lose my train of thought. She told me she needed heels for a date but didn’t want anything “too predictable.” So I brought out a pair of sleek silver stilettos with mirrored heels and delicate crystal straps across the toes. When I knelt down to help her try them on, she rested one hand lightly on the arm of the chair and watched me through the mirror the entire time. Honestly, I don’t know how women expect me to function under those conditions. The second she stood up in those heels, everything changed. Her posture. Her confidence. Even the way she smiled. She took a few slow steps across the boutique floor, then turned toward me and asked, “Be honest… are these dangerous?” I told her, “Very.” That made her laugh. Before leaving, she slipped her sunglasses back on and said, “If this date goes badly, I’m coming back here instead.” And I swear she looked directly at me when she said it.
