♥ You can't be the rich, stylish lady detective, but you can be Phryne in other ways--do things that scare you and care for those you love and support other women and always learn about things that interest you. It's less exciting, but no less important.

(But don't wear a garter dagger without a sheath. That's just ridiculous)

Not that those things aren't nice, but... I doubt OP was daydreaming about being Phryne because the things she does are important or worthwhile. They're probably wishing to be Phryne because being a rich stylish lady PI sounds like a shit ton of fun.

Well yes, OBVIOUSLY. But living a little more Phryne-like is something to encourage

Yeah, I guess. It just seems odd that someone expresses a wishful fantasy type secret and the first comment is chiming in to let them know that while the fantasy is impossible, they can still do [a bunch of stuff they might already be doing already and anyway has nothing to do with the wish fulfillment part]. It's well meaning but a bit, er... not sure how to put it.

It's like if I said how much I really wished I could travel to Paris but I can't afford it and you said well, you could always take a nice walk in the park with a baguette, because walking is fantastic exercise! You're not wrong, but I'd still feel a little miffed like you're trying to squelch my dream with more mundane practicalities and it's not the time or place.

You could also get a Louise Brooks haircut.

And even wear nicer clothes instead of sweats and T-shirts. Granted, they won't be vintage designer or whatever, but there are reasonably priced garments that look stylish and make a lady feel good about her looks.
