Being Sexy in the Office

This is an observation of my commute to work this morning:

When I got on the bus there were only two people on it. A woman reading a book entitled "Something borrowed," which was obviously about marriage. Is reading this book in a public environment sexy? I would have to say no she was clearly single and reading this book . . . I don't know for sure obviously but to me it seemed a little pathetic. Anyway, she had long wavy brown hair, a lot of make-up, a nice coat, a skirt and insane knee-high boots. I do believe she was on her way to work downtown because she got on the metro going that way and why else would you be awake at 7:30am. Anyway if she were going to work, the make-up and the boots were probably a little too much for the office, because in my opinion being overtly sexy in the office is inappropriate.

Then there was a man in the usual get-up of the shirt, tie, nice pants, and since it has gotten cold out a nice winter coat. However, men can be sexy without much effort. This man was devastatingly handsome without much effort; he was just wearing the office "uniform."

Then I was walking to the metro and both of the fellow bus riders got on the train going the opposite way.

But, while waiting for the train I saw a group of people waiting to get on the train. All in a similar office "uniform": pants/skirts for some women, a button up blouse/shirt and tie/no tie while they were in various colors, navy, black, gray, they were very similar. So, sexy seemed to stay out of the office for them.

Then I was walking from the metro to my office building and I stumbled upon a woman who I guess thought sexy belonged in the office because she was wearing a very very short red dress black tights and black stilettos. Apparently she works in my building, on my floor, in the office next to mine for another company. So she was definitely going to work. Interesting . . .
