Hopelessly baggy indigo jeans, white top, four bracelets, all with beads spelling out messages - “Slashy happy people,” and “Dangerous mind” as well as “Make smut not war” and “Blame Hawkeye.”

Bare feet.

😃 I have friend I used to work with, who has a “thing” about naked toes. He really dislikes them. At least, he really dislikes mine. Unfortunately for him, he used to sit directly across from me, and I used to wear sandals to work, when it was warm enough. 😃

I don’t even have ugly toes, but about three times a week he’d do some variation on “Aw! Naked toes, again! Blech!”.

John Rocha denim jacket. Hideously geeky black freebie Entrust T-shirt that was all I could find in the wardrobe this morning. Red Square bootleg blue jeans. Calvin Kleins. Dunnes Stores socks. Caterpillar walking machine boots.

Damn, missed it … bit late to post to it now too…

Anyways, I like them - they have some nice coffee coloured lace edging on them so they’re not trashy in the least. Though my poor Father saw the thong in a pile of laundry and really couldn’t work out what it was (its veryyyyy tiny!!! - when I told him, he turned a little pale 😛

I like em, they’re cute, not trashy, and my boobs look great in the bra … not a damn thing wrong with that 😃

I think we ALL knew you were a sex kitten. 😉

Anyone NOT know that? Raise your hands. … That’s what I thought. 😃

Stunning AND sexy! _Wheet-wooo!_ Sorry. That’s as close as I can come to a wolf whistle.

Thank you one and all. I try to fashion my look to work in direct opposition to my straight-laced IT gig. Someone has to do it!

Jeans, top, socks, shoes.

Let’s see - from the bottom up:  
[ul]  
[li]Black loafers[/li][li]Black socks[/li][li]Khaki Dockers that don’t fit my son (yes, I am wearing a fourteen-year-old’s hand me downs)[/li][li]A white shirt[/li][li]My purple and brown tie that I got at a garage sale[/li][li]Steel watch[/li][li]My wedding ring, my pinkie ring, a gold tie clasp, and my silver earring[/li][/ul] My mother would be horrified - I am wearing gold and silver jewelry at the same time.

Usually my daughter approves my clothes, but she was asleep this morning.

It was pissing down rain, so my Charlotte Hornets jacket is drying in the cube next to me.

A regular Beau Brummel, me.

Regards,  
Shodan
