I really liked her outfit in this picture, so I left a comment beneath the photo that said:
"A denim jacket AND a leather jacket? Woah. Not many people could pull that off."
A few minutes passed, and then it suddenly occurred to me that my comment could be taken the wrong way. I went back and left another comment that said:
"... and you do pull it off. In case I wasn't being clear."
The upshot of all this is that I discovered my new favorite backhanded compliment! Next time I'm prompted to comment on an outfit that makes me wince, I'll be ready.
For example:
"A Roger Rabbit nightgown, silly straw glasses AND headgear? Well... wow. Not many people could pull that off."
