The sales assistant was momentarily stunned, and Evelyn looked at Ingrid in confusion.
Ingrid continued. “Mrs. Jefferson, let me help you pick out a few outfits as well?”
Evelyn gave Natalie a haughty glance and thought, “Hmph, do you think you’re the only person to have someone help you pick an outfit? So do I!
Fueled by the competitive thought, she nodded to Ingrid with a smile. “Alright, I trust your taste
In saying this, Evelyn completely forgot how she had criticized Ingrid’s poor fashion sense the last time.
Ingrid immediately started selecting the outfits. Turning to the sales assistants behind her, she confidently pointed at various pieces here and there. It seemed like she knew what she was doing
Miranda’s approach was completely different.
Before picking up the clothes, she considered the color and style. Then, she touched the fabric to feel its quality. She only asked the sales assistant to take down the items after making her decision. Then, she arranged them neatly in sets.Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
“Mrs. Jefferson, I think these two sets are the best after looking around. Why don’t you try them on?” Miranda suggested.
Natalie eagerly took the clothes, her eyes filled with anticipation and excitement. She absolutely adored Miranda’s taste. Every outfit that Miranda put together for her matched her style perfectly.
To be honest, Natalie secretly enjoyed shopping with Miranda more than her own daughter, Winter. Perhaps it was because they were on the same wavelength.
At that moment, Ingrid walked over. “I’ve also finished my selection.”
So, Evelyn headed to the fitting room. She was the first to change and come out.
Ingrid had selected a red A–line dress with straps and a short Chanel jacket for Evelyn. After putting on the outfit, Evelyn looked significantly younger.
She admired her appearance in the full–length mirror and was fairly pleased. “This is quite nice.”
Ingrid beamed happily. “It’s because you take such good care of your figure, Mrs. Johnson. You look even slimmer than me.”
Evelyn couldn’t help but feel pleased.
However, her smile froze when Natalie stepped out of the adjacent fitting room the next moment.
Miranda had chosen a turquoise–colored long dress for Natalie. The subtle pattern on the silk fabric added an element of elegance. The tailored design accentuated Natalie’s tall and graceful frame, highlighting her sophisticated demeanor.
Standing beside her, Evelyn looked like an old lady trying too hard to appear young in clothes that didn’t suit her age. The contrast was stark
The next outfit further emphasized the difference between the two. Natalie’s outfit made Evelyn look completely drab and dull.

Initially, Ingrid had felt confident in her choice. Evelyn’s short stature made it hard to find clothes that fit her, making it quite a challenge for Ingrid to put together an outfit.
She had gone around the store multiple times and spent a long time before finally selecting two outfits that could fit Evelyn
Nonetheless.
Ingrid did select clothes that fit Evelyn’s height and matched her preferences. The pieces were also well- constructed, considering the high–end brands she picked from Ingrid’s choices should have been acceptable
However, Miranda’s outfit selection for Natalie was too outstanding, given her advantageous height and proportions. As the saying went, comparison was the thief of joy.
Standing next to Natalie, Evelyn looked more like a maid rather than a wealthy lady.
Despite wearing luxurious brands, Evelyn appeared t.. and out of place. The contrast was even more apparent when they stood face to face.
Natalie was surprised and delighted when she saw herself in the mirror. “Mimi, this style is a first for me. but I love it! How did you come up with it?”
She was wearing a silk camisole and a pair of black wide–leg pants. Although her appearance remained the same, the demeanor she exuded had completely transformed.
Natalie’s silver hoop earrings were the eye–catching piece. Although it looked slightly exaggerated, the accessory added a sense of casual elegance and ease.
If the previous outfit made Natalie appear serene and graceful, this outfit made her look bold and sophisticated.
