Friday Five – Clothes
07 May 2010 1 Comment
So, my cousin is giving me grief about not doing the Friday 5 anymore, so I am resurrecting it today. I guess I should do as he asks since he is practically the only one that ever reads and comments here.
1. What if your favorite piece of clothing and how does it make you feel?
Hmmmm, I guess I would say my capris … all of them. I work from home, so I am mainly in capris and t-shirts while I work. My capris are reflective of the weight I have lost in the last 20 months. They are 2 sizes down from what they were before then so they make me feel good.
2. What was the most expensive article of clothing you ever bought?
I don’t really buy expensive clothes, again with the working from home thing. But, when I worked in an office, I probably spent $100 or so on a couple of suit jackets. Not much more than that. I don’t really have the need to dress up often. And when I do, because it is so rare, I don’t spend a lot of money to do it.
3. What is a current fashion trend you think looks horrible?
This is the truth and also directed toward my niece and nephew even though they will probably never read it. I HATE the trend of wearing low riding pants….especially on guys when the waistband is around their butt. They think they look cool but they look ridiculous.
4. What decade do you think had the best clothes?
Another tough one for me….I am just not a fashionista. I can only comment about the decades I have lived in because I don’t think I know the trends prior to that as well. I think I liked my clothes best in the 90s.
5. If you friends/family could throw away a single piece of your clothing, which do you think it would be and why?
Easy…..my lime green zip polo shirt. I have had it for probably 15 years and I wear it too much – but it is comfy and I love the color. Could have been my answer to Question 1 but I saved it for here.
OK – you know the drill. Copy and paste the questions to your own blog on in to the comments here and let me know your thoughts on clothes.
