I’m wearing a smile, because as of this morning, I’ve finally divested myself of the 20 lbs. I gained last year. Thank you, Dr. Atkins! Now to lose the extra 20 lbs. I was carrying to begin with. I’m also wearing a plain navy blue cotton long-sleeved shirt, light blue cotton chinos, sandals for the first time this year (yay!), blue rhinestone stud earrings, a silver ring with “FORMA DECORAT VIRTUTEM” enscribed on it, and my hair is messily pulled back in a black clip. ---

guy checking in. Being a SAHD at the moment, comfy casual is the rule. It’s finally warm enough for shorts, so it’s olive walking shorts and my favorite “pumpkin Day 2002” t-shirt. Since it’s laundry day I am by necessity going commando. ---

A pair of trainers, so worn that they are almost falling apart. A pair of blue jeans, ditto. A T-shirt with the text _“Beer is living proof that God loves us”_ on the back. A dark blue/grey jacket, ditto again. I must do something about my wardrobe. ---

**Kalhoun** , I think I’m in love. \ And I **know** I’m already in love with **Gundy**. 😉 Today’s a Gap kind of day – blue-and-white long-sleeved shirt over a grey t-shirt, khaki cargo pants, brown shoes and belt, blue socks and dark blue Gap boxers with stars on 'em. Oh yeah, and a nifty Fossil watch, silver ring on right hand, and my glasses. Later today I’ll have to go out and do some sampling and fieldwork, so the outfit will be a crappy old t-shirt of some sort, beat-up jeans and steel-toed boots. ---

Eve sounds like what I SHOULD be wearing to work. I do the corporate thing sometimes, but Today Just Wasn’t One Of Those Days. I need a shopping excursion to Petite Sophisticate, where one goes to shop for career clothes. ---

Well, I’m at work, so I’m dressed much neater than I’d like to be - Black leather shoes, black trouser socks, black poly/lycra dress pants, blue pin-striped button-down shirt. I much prefer jeans and t-shirt, overall. ---

**interface2x** was wearing an Apoptygma Berzerk t-shirt. S/he is my new hero. I want one. Well, actually I want a VNV Nation one, too. Sigh. I’m wearing a black long-sleeved stretch t-shirt with a liitle witch printed on, and some rhinestones scattered around for stars. I got it at work. It’s neat. Also an ankle-length magenta and black shot silk flared skirt that I made several years ago, and that needs repairs. It’s got hand beading around the hem. I don’t recommend doing that much hand beading. Black push-up bra and bikini undies. No socks. This is the epitome of my normal-at-home-doing-housework style. Really. ---

Actually, the skirt is floor-length. I just got up and walked to the garbage drop chute, and noted where the hem is. Definitely floor-length. ---

That sounds pretty, Lissla. I don’t do long skirts too often because I’m short. But I like how they look on other people. ---

My rave pants. Yup, that’s it. And while I am not nearly as exciting as **jinwicked** is, my webcam is not on either. ---

I’m short, **Kalhoun**. Oh, and thank you. I find mid-length skirt make me look shorter. Also, with long skirts, you don’t have to shave your legs as often! 😃 I just love long skirts. I think I have about 20, and I’m seriously considering making some more for summer.
