I am wearing khaki green heavy cotton slacks with a touch of lycra in the weave, from Christopher & Banks, probably around 2010, bought on sale for $20 or less. Then a top that is probably way out of style or nearly so, also from Christopher & Banks from an online clearance sale, was $10 or less about 4 years ago. It is a little fancy, with some beading and sequins around the Vneck; the main fabric is a “dark” print that has the olive/khaki green in it. Some shoes by “Earth Origins” that are Tstrap sandals REAL LEATHER, purchased online from Famous Footwear with a gift card received last Christmas. I think the shoes were about $23.

This is one of my more expensive outfits LOL. Yesterday was black slacks from Dress Barn and a top I sewed myself for under $10.

These are my “work clothes”. If at home, usually a pair of PUMA gym-style shorts, navy blue with white side stripes, that are at least 10 year old, and a random Tshirt.

Gosh. You must be skinny; at least your clothes sound
skinny. - I’m old & porky and don’t wear shorts because my
thighs rub together in shorts and chafe. = It is HOT as
heckfire here in the South in summer and I got to where I
smothered in britches. - I just took a shower (it was way
past time!) and washed my hair. Now I’m wearing a muu-muu
that I ordered from “Woman Within” or “Blair” or someplace
like that. I got four and they came to about $15 a piece.
100% cotton. (Acrylic or Polyester just suffocates me and
smothers me and makes me sweat like a hog. - My hair is
wet from the shower; and I keep cutting on it and now it
looks like that woman on the commercials who probably cuts
her own hair. (Mine seems to grow an inch or two overnight.
I know it doesn’t; but it seems like it!)

So, I am hoping not to have to change again today. (I just
fall in bed in the muu-muus and they work for gowns.)
