Ally: Please show me a really smart hat to go with this coat and skirt.

Ally: No, I don't like it very much. Haven't you something a little quieter - not so striking. There were some very pretty hats in the window.
Shop assistant: Now here is a lovely little hat, very quiet. Isn't that becoming?
Ally: I like it awfully. How much is it?
Shop assistant: Twenty-nine pounds, madam. A bargain.
Ally: All right, I'll buy it.
