Sharon and I have always shared clothes and such for years, we are the same dress size, skirt size, blouse, sweater, even pantyhose!, there are only three things we don’t have in common, one is our shoe size, she is actually an 8, and I am a 7!, and bra size, she is much larger than I. The third thing we do not have in common is our style of business attire.
Sharon has always been very conservative with her style of business dress, chic, but conservative. Her skirts and dresses are typically below the knee, her shoes 2” maximum in height, while I like a more “sexy” business attire. My skirts for work are typically above the knees and shoes for work are a MINIMUM of 3”.
During this years Christmas shopping trip, Sharon chose the attire, to something that would make us closer in appearance as we went shopping together. This time, I also allowed Sharon to choose the outfits for our 6th annual Wedding anniversary dinner, and she surprised me like I have never been surprised before, when I again, let her choose the outfits for the romantic dinner out to a quiet restaurant.
I should not have been too surprised at what she picked, as over the summer I got a new outfit. I found the outfit at Suzi Sheir, they are a woman’s clothing chain that caters to the 18 to 35 year old crowd. The outfit was simple, a straight “A” line skirt, just below the knees, a fitted jacket, single breasted with short sleeves, and the whole outfit comes together perfectly with a high cut lace camisole peaking out from the jacket. The colour was “sage”, and the whole look of the outfit was very professional and chic.
When I went to Maria’s (my seamstress) in September to have all of the dresses for the fall photo shoot altered, I had the skirt of the outfit shortened to something right out of the California Soap Opera, “90210”, really short, crisp and VERY sexy, something Sharon would NEVER wear to work, but on one occasion she wore it to work, as I offered her the chance at my wardrobe to share clothes, something both of us always do, and the reaction was so great, and she looked so hot and sexy, and it made her felt great, she fell in love with it, and wore it a few times.
Another factor in Sharon’s decision is the fact she knows how much I enjoy wearing shorter and more daring skirts. So with the date of the dinner fast approaching, Sharon informed me that she had made her decision on what the two of us were to be wearing for the evening, and informed me that she would leave my outfit out as she left for work on the Friday, and that I should be ready to go to dinner when she returned, and I promised her that I would. I also made Sharon promise that were going to be wearing “business formal”, and she just smiled, and said, “oh I think you will find the outfits more than formal”.
As I came home from work myself and started to get ready for the dinner out, there it was, and I was left standing there in disbelief as Sharon had left me out, a very pretty, high collar sheer white blouse, my red single breasted silk jacket, a brand new pair of sheer black pantyhose and my black leather MINISKIRT!. I could not believe it, and started to wonder what Sharon would have picked out for herself, but I would have to wait until I saw her when she got home to see what she picked, but I had a sneaky suspicion I knew what she had chosen for herself!.
So with my outfit chosen, I undressed and prepared for the wonderful evening and another romantic anniversary night out. I showered and cleaned up, coming out I immediately slipped into my lingerie for the evening. Now, the blouse she had chosen for me had a sheer bodice that requires a strapless bra, as well, the very feminine look of the blouse is enhanced with a lacy camisole underneath to cover the bra, so that is what I chose. Also, the ultra sheer pantyhose required special attention, as putting on these pantyhose were different than most, the smallest snag and BINGO a run. So out came the satin gloves and after slipping into a hunter green pair of lacy panties, on came the pantyhose, and everything worked out well. After my lingerie for the evening, I slipped into my pink makeup coat, and pair of low 2” black heels to protect my stockings, and headed to the washroom for makeup!.
I looked for a while at my face, and decided that for this evening, a more formal application was necessary, so my eyeliner was a little heavier than my normal business look, but not as dark as a “dressed to the nines” formal outing, and they looked great. Eyeshadow, well I stuck with my favorite colours, purple on the lower lids and pink on the upper, and a dark gray shade on the outsides to enhance the look, finally after a healthy application of mascara my eyes were perfect. My blush was applied a little heavier than normal business wear, but once again, not “dressed to nines” formal darkness. My lipstick choice was easy and chose my more dark and formal red lipstick, and after I looked over the overall appearance decided the nails were definitely needed to be done to complete the look, so the matching red colour to my lips was applied.
After my nails had dried, I placed both the lipstick and the nail polish, along with a matching gold anklet on the bed in our room with a note for Sharon to put them on. I chose my perfume for the evening and decided on Halston’s, and after adding a healthy dose, decided to added to the pile I left for Sharon and put my Obsession perfume out for Sharon to wear.
I was all set for my outfit and started with my blouse and slipped it on, did it up and tucked it in, and then next my leather miniskirt, and to finish the skirt off, a wide red belt. I then slipped on my red silk jacket buttoned it up, and then looked over the jewelry for the evening. A necklace was out of the question with the high collar, but a nice pair of pearl drop earrings, my gold watch, and my own gold anklet made the outfit, it was perfect, with only one thing left to choose, and that was my shoes.
I knew that Sharon and I were only going to dinner and not out shopping around and such, so the first pair of heels I grabbed was a pair of 4” black patent shoes and I knew they would be perfect for the evening, but wanted to be sure. I slipped them on and stood in front of the hall full length mirror and loved the look, sexy and semi-formal was what the heels projected. I decided to be sure of the look and went and grabbed a pair of 3” black suede heels and after looking at them decided, that since no long walking was involved my less comfortable and sexy 4” patent pumps would be perfect.
I checked my regular purse, (the “sack”), and made sure that I had a spare pair of nylons, and packed my lipstick, blush and other necessities and waited for Sharon to come home from work.
Sharon came home, and since it was a Friday and that most of the businesses in this area have “casual Fridays”, I gave her some time to change out of her jeans and sweater into her outfit for the evening, and the first time she and I met, I was extremely surprised to see just how wonderful she looked.
There she was, in the sage coloured outfit, really short skirt and all, complete with pantyhose matching mine, lipstick and nail polish, ankle bracelet, all matching mine, and 2 1/2” black patent shoes, the only real difference was the fact she had her hair pulled back, with a hair clip at the back. So, with me not wanting to be too different, I went and got a hair clip, with black and gold, very “dressy”, and Sharon watched as I clipped it in place, and I said “there”, Sharon smiled and said, “it looks great, perfect!”. Sharon and I kissed and hugged and decided it was time to go.
Sharon and I had already decided before got together were we would be going for dinner that evening, and we decided on a quiet Italian restaurant, and as well slipped into our coats, discussed what we both might want to order. My coat was a long warm coat, were Sharon slipped into a shorter 3/4 length coat, that would soon prove to be not the right coat for the outfits her and I were wearing. You see BOTH Sharon and I’s skirt were DEFINITELY mini, about 4” above our knees, and you certainly were self conscious wearing these skirts!, and with the unusual chilly November wind, the longer coat was definitely the better idea.
We arrived at the restaurant and it was really busy and after circling the parking lot had to walk a fair distance to get to the main doors, and the walk was really cold, and I could tell really regretted the jacket she wore and was really relieved when we got into the warm restaurant and out of the cold wind. Once in the restaurant we had a bit of a wait and stood there in the crowd of people waiting as our table prepared. After waiting only a few minutes, a waitress came up to us with menus and smiled, “this way ladies”, I smiled back and said thanks. As Sharon and I walked to our table our jackets were done up, so I knew that the “miniskirt” twins were not realized by the other patrons in the restaurant.
Sharon and I were seated in a really nice back area of the restaurant, dark, complete with candlelight and only two tables in our area, it was really romantic. Sharon and I ordered dinner with the waiter how served us saying, “and you will have mam?”. Dinner was nice and Sharon and I chatted about lots of things including when we got back home that she would once again play bridesmaid and help me into my wedding dress again. The highlight of the evening was when Sharon and I had to use the ladies room, she went first and I could see by some of the patrons in the restaurant that they took notice of her outfit, and I was assuming her short skirt. When Sharon got back to the table, it was my turn to use the ladies room, so off I went, and loved the fact that I knew I was also getting “checked out” and my short leather miniskirt and 4” black pumps were attracting attention. I had the whole ladies room to myself and after finishing my business, took the time at the well lighted makeup mirror to touch up my lipstick. The walk back to the table was also fun as I caught a few guys checking out my legs, it was quite a turn on!.
Sharon had settled the bill when I got back to the table and she started to put on her coat, and since she froze coming into the restaurant, that I offered my longer coat to her for the walk back, and she thanked me and took me up on my offer, so we left after a wonderful dinner and romantic company and headed back to the car. I discovered quickly how a really short skirt and a short jacket do not work well in the cold, cold wind. I was glad to slip into the van and was happy when Sharon turned on the heat!!!.
Once we got back home, Sharon fulfilled her promise and played bridesmaid and helped me slip into my wedding dress, and I wore it complete with the headpiece, garter, heels and lingerie, it was so nice to slip back into it. Sharon then slipped into a black and white bridesmaid dress and truly played bridesmaid. We chatted for a while, and then it was time to change out of the dress and into my bridal night lingerie.
I kissed and hugged Sharon, hold her how much I loved being her wife and then she lead me to bed and we snuggled all night.
