I went for an interview in Camden today so I wanted to combine both and give the formal interview a quirky look, at least when I'm out and about. The main reason for me to post this and even take a picture in the first place was, however, because a friend of mine shouted out "You look like a 70s pimp" and I loved that reference so much that I was then asked whether I knew what a pimp was and why I was so happy about being compared to one. Well. Credit where credeit is due, I did look like a 70s pimp. Sort of. In silk, linen and fur and no gold jewellery!
