Who's Having Red?

Clothes might make the man, but everything you need to know about a woman can be gleaned from what’s in her glass.

Personality: Sometimes brooding, the red wine consumer is mysterious, with a dry, biting wit. She’s slow to laugh, but once you’ve convinced her you’re worthy, she’s hooked.
Strength: She’s great in a crisis and can fix pretty much anything with a roll of tin foil, some paperclips, and a couple twist ties.
Weakness: Will “borrow” your favorite dress without telling you.
Style: This dame’s style has evolved over many years spent combing thrift stores and poring over vampire movies. As a result, velvets, pencil skirts, and dramatic capes are a reoccurring theme, though she also likes a good pair of dark-wash denims.
Day Job: Don’t make her interact with the public, okay? She’ll be the hardest worker you’ve ever met, but she doesn’t suffer fools. So keep her busy and keep the nitwits at bay.
Dream Job: Astronaut, actress, inventor or fashion designer. As she’s a multi-tasker, why not all of the above?
Men: Smart, and at peace with the fact that she’ll never ever watch the big game with him.
Loves: Chocolate frosting, red nail polish and vintage automobiles.
Loathes: Stuffed animals, perky morning people, microbrews, and being told, “it’s all good.
