Shouldn't a prospective bride dress attractively?

Radha, a young lady I know is dependable, smart and efficient. That's  as far as character and work are concerned: She'd respect everyone, hurt no one, spare time for anyone....you know the rest.


Sometimes when I see her  at work,  looking down seriously at pen and paper, I tend to admire her features. The v-shaped chin, the straight nose, the serious eyes...

 my eyes wander down to her dress and then sometimes I am even provoked to anger.                                                                        

It seems unfair that such a worthy lady should be dressed in such an ordinary (dull) attire.Simple living , high thinking seems to be her policy. A very appreciable quality, indeed. My argument is that for whatever amount she spends on her dress, if she could get a 'liveli-er ' colour, why not?

Obviously she does not want the extra attention. Fine. Let whoever appreciate her do so for what she is than what she may appear to be. Okay, done. Appreciated. But then something's still missing. The excitement of youth. The celebration of life. After all she has given her best to everybody, achieved  enviable success , given a helping hand to her parents, her sibling, then what?

Should a building that houses a celebrity be without a fresh coat of paint? Doesn't she talk eagerly of that day when she'll be declared Queen of a new family? Then why the disguise? Let us take her the colours of the sky and of the flowers and hasten the process of waiting...

The baby colours of pink and blue; the primary colours of green, red,yellow; the secondary colours...              
   without indulging in all these it doesn't seem right  for her to mature into the elderly maroons and greys.
