| What I say... | What I really feel inside... |
|---|---|
| Black works with everything. | Better safe than sorry. |
| I have to maintain the corporate image. | I prefer it to my self-image. |
| Everyone would like to look glamorous all the time, but it's not reality. | My reality is humdrum. |
| I don't think I could wear fishnet tights. | Someone might look at my legs and get the wrong idea. |
| This is my best suit, I wear it everywhere. | Everywhere in my world is work, work, work, the wine bar and work. |
| I'm a strong, independent woman. | It's tough working in a man's world so I act tough in order to get by. |
| I refuse to throw away my white cotton knickers - they're so innocent, they haven't done anybody any harm. | Sex is not a big consideration for me. Practicality is far more important. I'm prim and proper, through and through. |
| Jewellery makes me rattle when I run. | I'm always running. Busy, busy, busy! |
| The aim is to blend in. | I have to protect myself from seeming to be a threat to my colleagues. |
