Khaki, big time.

Jeans, mostly. I dunno. Me and clothes, we’re an alarming combination.

You mean there are other clothes apart from jeans ?
Khaki at work. But only because they frown on jeans except for Fridays.
I’d wear jeans every day if I could get away with it.
Anecdote: Two of the guys I fly with are Irish (although they sound English). One of them was wearing a particular shirt, and I asked if they came in khaki. He didn’t know what I was talking about. When I explained, he said, “Oh! KAH-kee!” The other guy said, “KAH-kee? Isn’t that what you start your car with?”
Blue jeans and a khaki shirt (or a T-shirt), or khaki trou and a denim shirt for me. But I prefer jeans.

Jeans, no question.
Although I’d like to take this opportunity to thank GAP for putting that "I want to be in America, everything’s free in America. . . " song in my head for the past week.

I bet I’m more khaki than anyone on the board.
Jeans, always. Levi’s 570’s by preference, although they can be hard to find. 560’s are my second choice.

JEANS!!! What? Is there anything else? I even wear dress jeans. I hate straight legs but love boot cuts and will be damn glad when the flair’s come back. Jeans used to have, in the 70s, flares on the ends slightly bigger than the current boot cuts.
Unfortunately, because I have, shall we say, become a tad portly over the years, I cannot longer wear those great, tough jeans that one has to wash 50 or 60 times to get them soft. Now I have to wear the ‘relaxed waist’ cut.
HEY! Don’t smirk! I’m only 14 pounds overweight!
I wear both, but I think I look better in khaki. In fact, I think everyone looks better in khaki. Then again, there’s nothing like a comfortable pair of worn-in jeans. Sheesh. Now I can’t decide.

Jeans.
I like khakis better in theory–but in real life, it is always jeans, jeans, jeans.
And thank the good lord that they are making better women’s jeans these days. Remember those jeans from the late '80s, early '90s that had little tiny pockets high up on the butt? So that there was a HUGE expanse of un-pocketed butt hanging down below the pockets. And they had tapered legs. Those jeans made everybody’s butts look huge–and if the butt WAS a little on the big side, it looked extra-huge, because the ratio between the pocketed-butt and the un-pocketed butt was even more screwed up…
Oy, my grandkids are gonna hate me. “Well, sonny, in my day the back pockets on women’s jeans were way too small…”
I don’t own either. I only have maybe 2 pair of pants at all, and one of them is sweatpants. I am a skirt/dress person. Most of my skirts and dresses are mid-calf to floor length. I’m such a throwback.

That’s debatable. I wear tho kinds of cloth. Khaki and Cotton. I swore off jeans a while ago. Blue Satan, they suck deep ass! So rough and annoying. Actually I do wear corturoy (S/P?) sometimes.
Jeans, without a doubt.
Heck is where you go when you don’t believe in Gosh.
Khakis, since it’s required at work and I’ve gotten used to them. Plus, I stopped buying jeans a few years back since I only wore them once a week or so at the most and so my entire leg-covering wardrobe has slowly converted to khakis. I still have a few pairs of jeans and a pair or two of black jeans, but they rarely see the light of day.

Khaki for me. The cloth feels lighter and is less binding.

I’ve learned that if someone says something unkind about me, I must live so that no one will believe it.
Jeans. If I could wear them to work, I’d live in my Levi’s dark dyes. With the cuff and everything.
[hyjack]Incidently, I finally moved my computer into my new apartment. The old apartment was too small for two computers, so we just used my roomie’s. But today I bought a desk, hooked up my machine, and this is my first post from the new place. w00h00![/hyjack]
I’m waiting for my Wally quote.
Jeans.
I have some khakis, but on women they can make you look fat.
If I can get back to my smaller size, I have about 23 pairs of jeans waiting for me. Maroon, black, indigo, beige, green, purple, etc.
I was a sales rep selling windows and doors. I wanted to look good but be comfortable so I purchased different color jeans (not many pants go well with the shoes I wore on a job site). Also, I would end up in nice offices where they would be wearing dresses and such. The colored jeans looked better than wearing regular blue jeans.
Jeans, for sure. Khakis look ridiculous on me, but I can get Lands’ End jeans that fit just right.
I work in a very casual office – if someone showed up in a swimsuit, it might inspire comment – So I can wear jeans almost every day. Joy!

I’m a khaki girl. They are more comfortable than jeans. Unless I’m going bar hopping (which, of course, is not THAT often ;)) and need to wear my killer black suede vest. Then it’s gotta be blue jeans!
