What Are You Wearing?
I would tell you but you would go blind from the shock. :shocking:
eclectic business attire....
What the heck kind of message board do you think this is???
Anyway. My fashion sense (or lack thereof) is the despair of all my female relatives, who wish I would just once wear something different. But I'm completely uninterested so I dress for minimum effort consistent with being socially acceptable.
So, I'm wearing the same thing I wear almost every day. Khaki slacks and a button-down shirt. Mrs. Dallas just rolls her eyes at the fact that I own multiple identical pairs of khaki slacks to maintain this wardrobe, but I figure if I find a brand/size combination I like, why go elsewhere?
Variations: t-shirts (always with a pocket for the cell phone) and shorts during the summer when I'm not working. Jeans if I know I'm going to be doing something grungy. Wingtips for work, sneakers otherwise.
black dress slacks, heels, salt and pepper turtle necked short sleeve sweater hair in a bun
That doesn't sound very disorderly to me! ;)
Charcoal grey sweatpants and red sweatshirt (Go, Buckeyes!) But, I'm not sweating.
Oh, red sox. Hair in disarrayed ponytail.
No classes today. Am lazy.
Variations: t-shirts (always with a pocket for the cell phone)
Don't you forget it's in there and bend over, at which point the phone leaps out & skitters across the floor?
Flannel, slacks, and black sneakers.
I'm trying to avoid getting ready for work, so I'm sitting here in my "Gandalf the White" robe... aka this really long-ass white bathrobe that my grandma gave me.
I know, it's a very hot image. Deal with it.
I turned up the volume on my computer and I still couldn't hear the heavy breathing. What's the follow up post going to be, "Are you touching yourself?"
:eek:
Sorry,
carharts, smartwool, muckboots.
Ill-fitting maternity clothes. :(
Jeans and polarfleece. Shame I didn't read this earlier, my answer would have been much more exciting.
Jeans, t-shirt, Dr Scholl's walking shoes, white sox, black boxer briefs, an 18" box chain with a pentacle locket and a cast silver 45 rpm adaptor (the kind that looks like some sort of biohazard insignia) and glasses.
I started the day out wearing a dark blue sweater, but then I remembered that my office gets up to 84 degrees by afternoon (even in the Winter for some reason), so I bought a $4 t-shirt at lunch and changed. This will be important later when I set up the PA for band practice.
Hey els, how many people don't know what your 45-rpm adaptor is?? I bet I have a couple of the yellow plastic ones in a junk box somewhere, even though I haven't owned a turntable since college.
Dansko clogs, blue jeans, brick red V-neck cable knit sweater over a T-shirt, gold Mother's necklace, gold wedding ring, and medium gold hoop earrings.
It is a sure-fire age tester, that's for sure. Anyone over 35 knows right away what it is. Most under 35 do not know, but some do...presumably from their parents having some laying around.
It was cast after a friend of mine asked her boss to make a couple of them to sell in his jewelry store of which she is the manager. She saw me coming, that's for sure. I came into the store right after they were completed, and one was in the case. She ran over, pulled it out, and said, "Do you know what this is?" I didn't miss a beat...
A few months later, my wife was in the store, and Cammie conned her into buying it for me. As of that day, I was still the only one who knew what it was.

No more than once or twice a week. :lol: But I absoultely hate carrying it on my belt.
Fleece and blue jeans.
btw, monday it was cold here. it was 62 f in the house at about 2 pm. then I had on socks shoes undershirt shirt fleece coat and fleece hat (and requisite blue jeans) cold!

We got a record player for Christmas. My brothers spray painted it pink and white. We (my sisters and I) wrote our names all over it. Our first album Ray Parker Jr. "Ghostbusters" on the b side "A woman needs love, it scratched and just said over and over A woman needs, a woman needs. Good times indeed.
Now *that* is a frighteningly accurate recording. :lol:
hipwaders and a sombrero
ay yie yie yie!!!!
Shorts and a tank top (we call them singlettes on girls)
Levis t-shirt and catheads. Same shit every day.
And I mean REAL CATHEADS. Who's hip?
blue work pants , and a denim shirt , Yes my name is sewn on it
Just in case you forget your name? ;)
well if that was so it would have to be sewn on backwards so I could look in a mirror and read it , or upside down so I could just glance down , but no its just sewn on regular so customers can read it , at least they changed our shirts from the nasty poliester striped shirts , no body has walked up to me at a gas station in a long time
though messign with those poor corfused folks WAS sorta fun ;)
CATHEADS are sneakers (actually basketball shoes). But they are not just any t-shoe. They are Converse All Stars. Chuck Taylor autograph is standard . In the late 60,s early 70's you weren't envogue w/out these. Over a half century old, I still choose the Cathead over the "post modern" style. No..no college here. Just Catheads.
Hmmm...interesting that people get all caught up in what they put on their feet. I prefer barefoot as much as possible. For one thing, it's cheaper. For another, it keeps me grounded.
Green moleskin jeans, green raw silk shirt under cream fleece, black shoes - the rest is my own bizniss.
Birky clogs, cashmere argyle socks, cargo pants, pink v-string, 2 t-shirts, wedding band, amber necklace and gold nose bone.

LIME green? :lol:
Jeans, pocket Tee, socks......as usual. :zzz:
Anything I could find that didn't need washing. Only I couldn't find anything that didn't need washing :blush:
Silk night dress, long velvetine embroidered shawl with fringes, (both thrift shop finds) 3 Navajo silver bracelets, reading glasses, and my soft suede boots with fleecy linings (warmer then any slippers - its COLD). I would be an interesting sight if anybody came to my door (unlikely at this hour!) ;)
Yeah, Mari, sort of Santa Fe hausfrau. :) Santa Fe Style Victim is a traditional central New Mexico comic staple: silver with turquoise everywhere it's made for, over Injun clothes and mocs. Even on six-foot-one strawberry blondes and negresses.:lol2:
But to topic: oversized black sweatshirt with a community-theater production logo embroidered. One-season wear down here in Port Hueneme/Oxnard, as it is very warm. Progressive bifocals, which do wonders for reading the screen -- glasses wearers, do get these when you enter the bifocal season of life. These would be what a webcam would show.
Touching myself? Heh, nunya. :p

RE: mari's wardrobe. I always did aspire to the Stevie Nicks style of dressing, but I found all that fringe and chiffon just got in my way. :lol:
though, the outfit I'm really jealous of is jinx's. Actually, I'm just all-round jealous of jinx. First, she has a killer name. Second, she is a lady of leisure who gets to enjoy her kids, drinks latte's, has a wallet full of gift cards AND owns cashmere argyle sox! Where did she find THOSE? Coz I want a pair. Bad.

No matter what or where you drive.....you're tires are most critical. ;)
Hmmm..... new day, same Gandalf robe. Maybe I should post to this thread AFTER I get to work.
However, it is snowing really hard out, so I will probably be wearing something rather yeti like.
OK I'm in. Got one of my many "YES" T-Shirts this one is from the '84 tour, Paisley Flannel shirt (comfort is key), boxer briefs, (blue if that matters) Levis and my fav sneakers. I love not having any appointments! Otherwise I'd be choking in my suit & tie.

HAHAHHAHAHAH. Sounds
too familiar.

Bri, you would be so fun to hang with.... move east. C'mon, I'll take you to Jcrew and buy you some socks!
I have a cake life, I realize and appreciate it, really. Most of the time anyway...
(Today I'm wearing a tissue t and sweats, no socks, and really regretting the number of times I crossed the monkey bars at school yesterday. Wtf was I thinking??? Gah.... it huuuuurts)
I'd love to say nothing but for now it's my standard t-shirt and jeans and boxers. No socks. Socks are the entrapment of a free soul.
Jinx, baby, I just got off probation (This Very Day!) and that means I can move about the country freely! I so hope to meet you all at Forks '06! (and I wish only to sit at the feet of you and wolf and learn, learn, learn!)
:)

No, boxers are the entrapment of a free soul. ;)
RE: mari's wardrobe. I always did aspire to the Stevie Nicks style of dressing, but I found all that fringe and chiffon just got in my way. :lol:
Ooooh, Stevie Nicks! Thank you! :love:
I find that the silk and fringes don't impede my typing in the least (wish I
could blame by bad spelling on silks, oh well).
During the day, I am far more practical. At the moment I am on my way out the door and have on my cow girl hat, grubby jeans, black knee length coat, sunglasses on boola loops, reading glasses on nose, and the same three bracelets that I always wear - straight silver, no turquoise, and to be very precise TWO Navajo and ONE Hopi. The Hopi one has these cool spiders engraved on it.
i love jewelry...I LOVE it.
IMHO the wearing of textiles in general sux, a necessary EVIL. The only reason I wear clothing at all is, 300 pound men should not be seen in the nood, exept in special places.
Where are these special places?
I am 100% for wearing clothes. They help hide all of my jiggly bits.
Today, I'm wearing a red Adidas T-shirt, black sweatpants and lime green Crocs with white socks. These Crocs may be the coolest pair of shoes I've ever owned.
Today I am wearing my STEELERS T- and jeans... a pair of fuzzy socks, and a HUGE smile.
I am a Steelers fan, and in honor of them stayed home from work nursing a small but potent celebratory hangover. :blush:
Nobody here in the Cellar has EVER done that. You should be ashamed. ;)
Right, staying home and celebrating requires being naked. :p
Salad dressing. I was in a hurry and missed my mouth.
(that's alot more interesting than a black turtle neck sweater. dark blue pants, black socks and black shoes)
Flannel nightgown. It is not plaid.
Black A-line dress with a suede knee length jacket - black pumps - and black and brown silk scarf.
Damn I must be back at work.... BLAH.

My own back yard, and a camp we goto in the summer.
A dark red pullover thing with a blue stripe down each arm. Very rowing team.
I've found my work attitude is better when I dress like I shop at the Gap instead of wearing some black t-shirt (of which I have dozens).
The Gandalf robe is in the wash, so this morning it's my husband's green fleece robe.
black again. Today it feels strangely kinky, though, as I'm wearing silky tights underneath jogging bottoms/pants (usual fair is jeans and socks). I have been figure-skating twice and just couldn't be arsed to change in between. :lol: Same old t-shirt and cardi, though. I clothes shop twice a year, in bulk. :cool:
Wouldn't you just like to know ... ;)
same jeans from yesterday (two day limit), and a brown shirt that has sleeves that are just an inch too short to be entirely comfortable. I always forget that. I should just Goodwill it.
Oh my god mrnoodle - you and my hubby are twins today!! I think his shirt is burgundy though.
I've got the green robe & some facial mask on... that's about it.
Wouldn't you just like to know ... ;)
Well, we wouldn't know if we'd like to know unless you give us a hint. You know?
Jeans, burgundy shirt, green sweatshirt. I'm very consistent in this during cold weather. The only thing that changes is the color of the shirt, and the color and logos on the sweatshirt.
It's very cool to be walking into the Sears Tower in jeans and a sweatshirt when nearly everyone else is in suits and ties. It's good to be a programmer.
I'm similarly consistent. Winter: sweats and t-shirt. Summer: shorts and t-shirt.
Both solid color, where the color varies: dark colors and blacks/grays when I am ashamed of my body, and light colors when not ashamed.
Today: dark colors
Oh, nothing. :cool:
And what are you wearing NOW Bruce????? ;)
Grey Business suit w/skirt - black silk blouse, pearls, stockings
(yes stockings - pantyhose were invented for the sheer torture of women in the world) and black heels...
but at 4:40 pm I'll be in well worn levi's and a HD tank top... ahhh it's good to get home! :)
same jeans from yesterday (two day limit),
Really? My jeans all get at least a week or so, unless they get specifically dirty with something.
my SO wears his work suit all week. i hate it i think its so grosse. he changes as soon as he gets hoem but gees! all he changes is the undies and the shirt. ew!
i can only wear a thing once then i consider it dirty, even if i have it on only for a few hours i still wash it. i love the feeling of freshly washed and ironed clothes. mmmmm
Well, my concert tux only gets cleaned once a year if that often. I probably average wearing it 3 or 4 times a year, which doesn't sound like much, but when you consider we're talking about a black suit and 2+ hours of strenuous performing under hot stage lights, well, I wouldn't want to wear it to a social occasion without cleaning.
Maybe you need a lighter baton...

I just stumbled across this
jewelry site selling the same thing. Knew I had seen it somewhere else recently. You seem to be ahead of the curve on this one.
black gabardine sailor pants with black sweater, cuz spring hasn't quite registered with me yet. it may be so.cal. here, but i'm a weather wuss. :redface:
nice bike riding weather though
black licra jumpsuit with hot pink stitching and a hood. thigh high pvc boots. ball gag. and a christine dior watch.

you sound expensive.
not expensive, but it will still cost ya
you sound expensive.
Not with the knockoff Dior watch...
hey i knocked that watch off fair and square!
A green t-shirt from the pizza shop I moonlight at, a pair of gray sweatpants and my new black Crocs Aspens.
it may be so.cal. here, but i'm a weather wuss. :redface:
Meanwhilst I'm sizzling! 55-60° and rainy here in the North Bay but I'm burning up. Henceforth jean shorts and a t-shirt.
We're getting ready to head out to our lot on an island to watch the sac roe herring fishery, and work on the foundation for our cabin - so I'm wearing an old pair of Levis, a plaid flannel shirt and my XTra Tuffs (boots).
Picture the Playboy issue of "Girls of Alaska" minus the Playboy body.
jeans, red t-shirt, white cardigan, pink and black checkered vans. And, a smile! :D
Brown thermal shirt (three button type), white a-shirt, black jeans, kakhi socks, New Rock boots, and a belt.

Jay-sus. My jaw clentched just READING that. "By-the-By, Skippy, how's everyone down at the dock?"
Yikes. Surrounded by people who
are my social betters! :worried:
I've been realizing something about myself since my wife left me. One of the things I realized is that I really like having nice-ish clothing. I don't really like formal stuff like suits, but good jeans, a clean, ironed t shirt under a button up shirt, or (like today) a snug-fitting thermal shirt make me feel good about myself.
The boots.. Well, I spare no expense for good boots. They are almost an addiction.
Dude. I DID say you were my social better.
A woman I identify with once said, "I'll end it after forty." I feel much the same. No longer being relevant is difficult.
Actually I forgot to mention the point of my last post.. You're probably -not- my social better. I'm not wealthy by any means, and I was raised in a military family. I'm definitely in the lower middle class. Or maybe upper lower class. That sounds better.
Stresspup- I am no one's social better. I was joking. I was feeling blue so I decided to attack someone with better self-esteem than me.
Ahh. My bad. I have this thing with sarcasm, you see. I just don't get it :\
And what are you wearing NOW Bruce????? ;)
Grey Business suit w/skirt - black silk blouse, pearls, stockings (yes stockings - pantyhose were invented for the sheer torture of women in the world) and black heels...
Nice guess, but no. :rolleyes:

is he one of those giant cartoon characters at an amusement park?
my 7th & 8th grade history teacher, Mr DeBernardis rented his suits by the week. he told us all about it. they were nice expensive suits, and they came with 5 shirts....but it was the same suit for a week. I couldnt take the commitment.
My memory of him has him wearing a grey suit with a carnation shirt and tie. I guess that stood out.
Fruit of the Loom (34) white gold wedding band,in bed with the wife,a laptop and some warm blankets
Just an obscenely short sleeveless dress made of polar fleece with a lurid pattern of giant grinning cat faces - my usual hangin-around-the-house-in-the-morning outfit.
I don't wear slacks or jeans. I only wear shorts. It's kind of my signature piece.
I was looking in the mirror the other day after a shower, and might I say it wasn't all bad. no, wait...it was all that bad after all!
However, it made me think that maybe if we lived in a nudist society there would be less overweightness/obesity problems.
The reason being that I realise I have extra weight, but when I have all my jiggly bits covered, I don't really think about it, and mostly just think "fuckit I want pizza, i'm not that fat anyway". If I was naked while making that decision, would I think twice about it?
Get my drift?
Or, if we did live in a nudist society, would we see that everyone is different and just accept our bodies as beautiful?
I was just wondering what you guys think? or am I just rambling..........:right:
and I'm wearing:
jeans, greeenish highheeled cowboyboots, a cream vest and a green wollen tunic-type thing with no sleeves.
Same boots, same color socks, 'petrol' carhartt jeans, a black t-shirt, blue long sleeved shirt from Old Navy.
a warm green Lands End sweatshirt and gray sweatpants both of which I swiped from UT. Nice comfy sleeping clothes after a long day in torturous corporate garb.
its actually raining hard here today. so, i'm wearing black ankle-high cut wing tips, black wool trousers, black wool turtleneck, forest green double breasted jacket.
Lotsa spray hair gel, a little black eyeliner, Dr. Pepper lip gloss, black Target button-up shirt, Tag watch, camel-colored Banana Republic cords, and classic black biker boots.
Exact same post as my last, except minus the old navy shirt.
What is Dr. Pepper lip gloss?
You missed the 70s, didn't you.
only 24?
then do you realize next year you will be a quarter of a century old?
clean underwear
I was 24 about 30 yrs ago. Oh shit.
Was that the same year as you loved a lamp post?
glass of Jura, blue wool sweater, Dickie carpenter jeans
Was that the same year as you loved a lamp post?
No, that was yesterday. I think. :lol2:
