The remote lay on an ottoman. Picking it up, she entered a combination. Rows of shoes started to rotate according to season.
“Mmm, shall I wear the red polka dot high-heels or a pair of flat sandals?” she asked herself, scratching her head.
A pair of black, strappy high-heeled sandals caught her attention. Walking over, she pressed the stop button and bent over. Who would have thought these would come in handy? she thought on closer inspection.

“Perfect.”
Hanging the dress with its belt above the shoes. She turned to her underwear drawer. A black lace set joined the items of clothing. Last, but not least, she chose accessories with care. A scarf for her hair, a black pearl necklace with matching earrings and a pair of sunglasses.
Satisfied, she exchanged the bath sheet for her pyjamas, bathrobe, and cow slippers. On her way out, she hung the wet towel over the heated towel rack in the bathroom before heading out.
