27th Design [accidental video/audio]

[There's a clatter as the device falls to the ground, showing the morning light through the windows of passionné. As Cinna picks it up, you can see the various racks, ready for customers, and in the background, you can hear the gurgle and hiss of the morning crowd filtering into cafe satiné.

You can hear him chuckle as he realizes that the device clicked on.]

Well, since you can all see we're open this morning, I'll invite you down. I'll even make you a bargain, come by sometime today and with every purchase, I'll give you a discount at the salon.

[ooc: open action at the shop, the cafe or the salon, or feel free to chat via voice.]

Action

It didn't take long for Mercy to make her way down there. She was dressed, as usual, in jeans and a t-shirt. Her long black hair was braided out of the way.

"Hey, I'm Mercy. I just talked to you a little while ago?"

"Of course, Mercy, lovely to see you in person."

Cinna extended his hand in greeting, happy to see a new client.

"Please, come with me."

She shook his hand. "As you can see, I'm not exactly a fashion plate."

"Nonsense, you're a earthy person, close to hearth and home. Come, I pulled some things aside, let's see if you like them."

Taking her arm, Cinna led her upstairs to one of the consultation suites, where he'd already sent up a number of pieces.

She wasn't very fond of the first, but the second (http://cn1.kaboodle.com/hi/img/b/0/0/a4/c/AAAAC8Whx2EAAAAAAKTDNA.jpg?v=1263016167000) and third (http://threebondstreet.com/files/2010/05/Bluefly_CCtop.jpg) she loved.

Number four (http://blog.cessoviedo.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Stop-Being-Afraid-Outfit.jpg) got a laugh out of her. "I'm not sure that's really me, but Jack would love it. He'd get a kick out of me being some motorcycle chick."

She looked at the shoes in the fifth (http://resources.shopstyle.com//uim/y2011/d279/a9/a94f2ba6bd0dd4b39fe982ad1ff9b8c0.jpg) and grinned at Cinna. "I'd kill myself in those, but the outfit looks perfect."

And the sixth (http://blog.cessoviedo.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Blue-Plaid-Outfit.jpg)? Well, he couldn't have picked something more Mercy.

"This is pretty amazing," she said. "I wouldn't have thought you could pull stuff that fast without knowing me."

Cinna made mental notes as Mercy went through the pieces, adjusting expectations and running through his inventory in his head. "It is my specialty, dear, I have some skill. I mostly listened to how you described yourself. Now, try a few of these on and we'll see how good I rally am. Judging size via network posts is a tricky business. Luckily, you did some recent sunbathing I was able to look up."

With that he heads out, intending to pull some additional sets together as Mercy changed.

Mercy couldn't quite help blushing as she tried on the outfits. It's not that she hadn't known the post was open to the whole network, but to have someone say that used it to judge her size...

They all felt reasonably well, though she wasn't quite sure the skinny jeans should really be that skintight, even if they were comfortable. But it was the black top that she most loved. She kept turning to look at herself in the mirror.

"Do you maybe have some sort of black skirt that would go with this," she asked. "I... this is wonderful."

She hadn't thought she could look so good in something. (http://threebondstreet.com/files/2010/05/Bluefly_CCtop.jpg)
