    Strolling along the street and a beautiful girl crossed over to the same side. She was dressed up and clearly going to a function/party of some sort. (She looked HOT!)
    As she walked along I noticed she was discretely looking in the reflection of the shop windows fidgeting with her dress and jewelry a bit. Understandable as she wanted to look her best.
    As I was walking behind her I noticed she had a sticker on the sole of her new shoes, clearly the price tag. I wanted to tell her but started thinking about how to stop her and say it, with it being a helpful thing and not an embarrassing thing.
    Just then she went inside a shop to talk to someone (possibly a friend). I kind of slowed to gawk in and decided that I can't just wait outside and I didn't want to walk in and interrupt two strangers so I kept going slowly up the street. I stopped at the crossing for a bit to see if she was going to continue up after me but no sign, so I just went about my day (following ladies).
    I wish I got to tell but was also a bit paranoid about getting a negative reaction.
    Ladies and crossdressers of AH, would you appreciate a stranger coming up to tell you something about the sticker on the bottom of your shoes or would it shock and freak you out a bit?

    Old men love telling me my shoelaces are untied.
    "careful son"

    You don't seem like a creep OP

    It's like when someone's zip is down.

    SOrry I was just staring at your crotch and noticed your fly is undone....you're welcome ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,163 ✭✭✭✭danniemcq


    or the tag on the back of a womans top.

    that always confuses me


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,297 ✭✭✭Jaxxy


    It would probably take me a couple of seconds to process what you were saying (because it's not exactly common for a stranger to approach in the street and tell you the price sticker was still on your sole) but then I'd thank you and ask if you'd been admiring my shoes.

    On the whole I'm always appreciative of someone letting me know if I've a tag/label showing, or if there's something on my face, etc. I remember one time walking out of a toilet with my skirt tucked into my knickers before, would have been nice if someone had pointed that out to me. :D

    Say nothing.

    There's nothing Irish women like to do better than shoot you down.

    Depends on how noticeable it is to determine whether you had to be staring to see it. So a tag left on or skirt tucked into knickers would jump out at you, even if you weren't staring.

    But "sorry, I just noticed you have small dog hair on the back of your dress, just on the left arse cheek". Em...not advisable.

    Completely depends if she thinks you're hot or not OP! :D

    Was in a shop one day and this girl was strutting her stuff around - thought she was gorgeous. Tiny mini skirt and high heels. Barged her way through people to get up the escalator first and had a huge ladder up the back of her tights! :D:D

    It's the same as when a woman is just after leaving a toilet and her skirt/dress is tucked into the back of her tights. Or if they're wearing a bag, thus lifting up the back of their skirt/dress.

    My first instinct is to tell them so, because it's downright embarrassing, but you'll always get some women who will accuse you of having a perve. Er, no, it's pretty hard not to miss your arse sticking out.

    Laughing and pointing gets across the idea that there's something wrong and you don't find her attractive.

    Everyone's a winner.

    How much was the price tag for?

    If >300 Euro she may have left the tag there on purpose.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,012 ✭✭✭BizzyC


    Had one recently where a woman was wearing a skirt that was fairly transparent and was wearing a black thong underneath.

    Part of me wanted to say something to let her know her arse was visible through her skirt, but the other part didn't want to come across as some creep, so I said nothing and walked past her.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 944 ✭✭✭xDramaxQueenx


    Or that you're wearing your clothes inside out. :/

    I once had to catch the Tube in London very early one morning; I got on, and this girl was sitting there, clearly uncomfortable. Two other guys were sat opposite her, and the rest of the carriage was empty. Why? The zip on her jeans was undone, and you could see some white knickers. Those other guys were taking "mind the gap" in a way not quite envisaged by the staff of London Underground. :eek:

    (Yes, I told her, by the way.)

    They bring it to you—free.

    I always have the old 'Yeah, your shoes are nice...but they'd look better behind your ears' line in case of any guff.
