DEAR MISS MANNERS -- I seem to have a penchant for noticing clothing tags that have been inadvertently left out while dressing. (As opposed to those tags that are strategically sewn on to best allow the wearer to become a free billboard for the designer.)
This has become a point of some contention between me and my teenage daughter. She thinks it's inappropriate (not to mention embarrassing, but then isn't that my job?) for me to point out to someone that their tag is out. I've even been known to gently tuck it in if it's at the collar of a woman of a similar age to mine.
I think I'm doing a service, my daughter thinks it's none of my business. I remember one particular time when I was at arguably one of the best restaurants in the country, and in walked a beautifully dressed woman and man, with the tag on the woman's dress sticking out for all the world to see. As we all waited for our tables I gently made my way over and subtly told her of the grooming error. I can assure you she was grateful.
Mercifully, my daughter was not with me at the time. I do ignore far more than I point out -- I'm not a stalker.
some people prefer their tags out...get over it
