I didn't mean that personaly, just that ugly fat actresses make a lot! Don't get so down on yourself there!

[Paul Atreides]

I know. I'm a college student at the moment so that's why I said that.

[FreedominJesusChrist]

Yes. I personally like wearing Yoga pants and cute T-shirts to class when I don't feel like dressing up. I also have a lot of drawstring sweatpants and matching tees and hooded sweatshirts to go with them. These types of clothes are not sloppy if one buys them at the right places, such as GAP, Abercrombie, Express, New York and Company, or Aeropastale.

I know that many people older than college might believe that these outfits look sloppy, but of one has any fashion sense it all, it won't! Besides, IMHO, it's just the college atmophere, not business at a fortune 500 company. I just want to enjoy it while I can :)

I think you are overreacting. At least I keep my mouth shut for the most part whenever I see a guy wearing totally ugly clothes.

[Paul Atreides]

Relax, nobody here, especially me, has deemed themselves the fashion police. Just because someone wears something, anything, doesn't mean people have to like it.

Yoga pants and cute t shirts sound fine to me.
That is certainly not PJ's and I can't see why that would be a problem in any classroom.
Are they objecting to that kind of dress also?
I guess I could pass muster, I would be in jeans and a top of some kind, I hope those are still allowed in this free country.

[Paul Atreides]

I guess we should be thankful they don't want to wear Old Crusty black pantsuits to school.

[FreedominJesusChrist]

Well, I know that a lot of people, including myself, sleep in stuff like Yoga pants a lot.

A lot of the sleepwear out there is more like loungewear. I don't see a problem with kids wearing this to class. For the most part, I never see anyone in class wearing this stuff, except for the early morning classes.

Po-jama people!
Po-jama people, people!
Lawd, they make you sleepy
With the things they might say
Po-jama people!

[2Trievers]

[hobbes1]

[SauronOfMordor]

Personally, back when I was in college, I wouldn't have minded more girls showing up for class in sleepwear

[Paul Atreides]

LOL! Judging from the photo, that goes without saying. However, you and I know that the people who would want to wear what she is wearing would blind you once she walked in the door.
