I just got sent an e-mail from a friend. A colleague of hers was in a shop at lunch time trying on a coat but there were no mirrors so she asked a woman near by if it looked alright. The woman said it made her look fat and walked off.

I'm laughing because I can't believe someone would be so mean
!! lol

Yes but c'mon, what a way to crash someone's confidence!! I'd have gone on Trinny & Sussanah on her and told her what style to go for! lol xxx

The girl who said it either wanted the coat for herself (nice tactic...it's a dog eat dog world afterall) or is having a really bad day or is simply just a cow lol

I wouldn't say she's fat. She's in her 50s, short and not thin. That's how I can describe her... she's such a sweet lady, you'd never say anything mean to her!

Sorry Liz, but asking a stranger's opinion is a big risk and you have to prepare yourself for a response that you won't like.

There are many people out there that don't worry if they hurt other peoples' feelings.

What's wrong with honesty?

Saying someone looks a sack of shite is far more preferable than saying they look great and then sniggering to yourself. Not asking or giving a toss what anyone else thinks saves your 'feelings' and is the only way forward when clothes shopping.
