The Difference Between Chic and Sheik

chic_vs_chic-unknownmami

This bit of conversation took place over the phone between my husband and I recently.

Me: I have nothing to wear to this event. It says chic attire.
Unknown Papi: Sheik attire, what does that mean?
Me: I don’t know. I guess not over the top dressy. I was thinking I could wear my skinny black jeans with…
Unknown Papi: Shouldn’t you be wearing something flowy if it’s Sheik attire?
Me: Chic attire, not Sheik attire!
Unknown Papi: Huh?
Me: Chic as in stylish, not Sheik as in covered head and flowing robes.
Unknown Papi: Oh, that makes more sense.

I absolutely love these sort of misunderstandings, don’t you?
