"I like having a school uniform," you say to the woman. "But if you can make it prettier, that'd be great."
She smiles. "For that, it'll only be ten dollars." You fish out your book of vouchers and find a half-off coupon for this shop. You hand the woman five dollars and the coupon.
She leads you inside the shop. You marvel at the rows and rows of gorgeous dresses and gowns. The sheer amount of lace and ribbon everywhere you turn makes you dizzy with delight.
"Over here, please," the woman beckons. You follow her to a pedestal with a large book on it. She flips through the pages. It's like a fashion catalog, but there are lots of runes and symbols along with regular text captions and images of beautiful dresses. She stops on a page with several types of uniforms, all more complex than what you're currently sporting.
She lays her hand on the page. "I think you'll find this one suitable," she says pleasantly. Then she begins to wave her other hand in your direction while speaking strange words in a sing-song voice.
At first you're nervous about a spell being cast on you, but her singing puts you at ease. Your spirit feels uplifted as you listen to the enchantment. You feel your uniform shifting around you, moved and folded and altered by invisible hands. When the song reaches the final verse, the woman relaxed her arms and gazes at you in satisfaction.
"Why don't you have a look?" she says, gesturing to a nearby vanity mirror. You're too happy to oblige.
What you see takes your breath away. The basic elements of your uniform are still there, but improved tenfold.
Your blouse and skirt have merged into a single dress of a royal blue color. The shoulders are puffy and the sleeves widen out at the wrists. Delicate lace sticks out from within them, masking the backs of your hands. The collar of the dress is tied with a loopy white bow.
The bottom of the dress has widened considerably. White lace trim adorns its hem, and there are two other lace rings farther up the skirt in even measure. From out of the bottom of the dress hangs a pleated white lining.
The vest, once a plain black shell, is now blue and highly ornamented with white frilly trim at the shoulders and along the bottom. Larger frills and lace blossom along the center divide where the vest is fastened. Near the bottom, the sides separate into an upside-down V where the frills taper down to join with the base hem's smaller trim.
Your shoes have turned blue to match the dress, and now sport white bows of their own. The white stockings have grown large frills which hang down from their hems, just below your knees.
You also notice you're wearing two gold earrings that gently dangle from your ears in the shape of a fleur-de-lis. A small handbag made of the same blue velvety material as your dress is hanging from your left hand. It's also trimmed with lace and has a large silver buckle.
The royal blue color of the uniform offsets your shimmering golden hair perfectly, accenting its beauty and creating an aura of childish sweetness.
You coo in delight. "It's so lovely." You turn to the woman and curtsy. "Thank you."
"It was my pleasure," she replies. "Always happy to see a satisfied customer. Do come again!" She shows you the way out and you wave to her as you begin to walk away, continuing your exploration of this magical mall.
