A familiar dilemma....

Busy with the day job at the moment - researching tinned mushrooms if you need to know, I am very happy to call on the talent of Charlotte Renon for today's post. Although she is at a different stage of her life, juggling her young family and her career, her drawing captures a universal female moment of truth.

Every woman above the age of 12 has experienced the plunge into the abyss, the desperate search, the ultimate irony of life: a desperate stare into closet full of clothes and the impossibility of getting dressed... The clothes are too old, too naff, too tight, too big, too drab, too colourful but also not elegant enough, nor sufficiently relaxed, not capable of projecting the right image for the day, the occasion or the moment.  Derided by men, the truth of that existential dilemma will certainly have the ring of familiarity to your ears.
