Thanks! I love red shoes. You sound like one of those women that always look polished and put together…I envy that. And yay, boots! I love boots! If I could just get a pair of red ones…

Hmm…well, I just changed, but my old outfit was better. So I’ll tell you about it too.

I WAS wearing a pastel yellow, white, and khaki striped GAP tank, khaki capris, and Liz leather sandals over (looks down shirt) a jade green bra and black VS thong. Silver loop earrings, silver [SAI](http://www.sai-national.org) necklace, and Timex watch.

But I just got home, and I refuse to wear nice clothes in my own home. So I’m now wearing my SAI province day t-shirt with gray yoga pants. Jewelry is the same. Hair’s in a messy ponytail. And barefoot, the way my tootsies would be all the time if they had their way.

This makes me feel very…uhh…vulnerable. I’m going to go change clothes now. And this time I won’t tell you what I’m wearing. Ha!

Today I am wearing blue tennis shoes, tight flared jeans with laces on the sides, and a low cut maroon peasant blouse with pretty decorations and huge sleeves. And matching white socks, for once. Also my dad’s watch since I couldn’t find my own, and a silver choker with black seed pearl-like beads. Oh, and black nailpolish that badly needs to be re-done.

I’m at work.

Burgundy short sleeved V-neck shirt, tunic length with “side vents.”  
Black poly-something pleated-front pants.  
Seiko watch, white gold earrings (both gifts from hubby)  
Wedding band and solitare.  
My undies are so old you wouldn’t want to see them.  
My BRAND NEW Victoria’s Secret Bra. (It’s a 38D - but it’s one of those “nude” colors - nothing exciting.)  
My Payless fake-leather slides are on the floor, under my desk.

A black hooded Converse sweatshirt  
A Straight Dope T-Shirt (get one, you start interesting conversations with it. Everything from “He’s the only person to ever decipher ‘Louie Louie’” to people thinking I’m dealing)  
Levi’s 505, I think  
A belt  
Boxers  
Socks (Thorlo. The greatest sock ever made.)

</div>

A long-sleeved black fairy t-shirt (the fairy has gold glitter, dark green, and a sorta-mauvish purple-pink).

A pair of jeans with (intentionally) frayed bottoms. The front of the jeans are blue. The back of the jeans are black. This is also intentional.

White socks.

A red and blue plaid bra.

Granny Panties. Light blue. Mostly because I save the cute stuff for when someone might actually see it. Partially 'cause I need to do laundry.

A wood and bronze-ish butterfly necklace/choker.

A short silver chain with a small piece of dark green jade in a silver leaf setting.

A long silver chain with a pewter, celtic-looking pentagram (filled in, not just the lines).

A silver greek key ring on my left hand ring finger (engagement/handfasting ring).

I s’pose _you’re_ not gonna turn on the webcam, either, huh? I hate _that._

I really wanna ask why a pagan would choose the name **Angel of the Lord** , but that would be hijacking.

God, how embarrassing – most of you are dressed! I’m still in my jammies – pink, white and periwinkle stripes cotton jammie pants ane a pink tank top. No skivvies. I’m gonna get dressed in a minute, though, so the rest of today I’ll be wearing light blue capris, a black t-shirt and black sandals – and a black bra and thong (Victoria’s Secret).

Ok, this afternoon I am wearing:

A silver floor-length ball gown skirt.  
Silver engagement ring, silver watch, silver locket necklace.  
Glasses. (Black plastic-framed catseyes. Nerdy glasses.)  
White satin bra. White lace panties.  
And to top it all off…  
… a several-years-old black t-shirt with an obnoxious neon-green, orange, and blue graphic for Elliott Sadler/Citgo Racing.

Three cheers for **Kalhoun** and **Rhino’sHoney**! To paraphrase Homer Simpson: Mmmmm…Thong…  
You ladies definitely got the blood pumping! 😃

Meanwhile, I’m stuck at work in my “engineer’s uniform” - dark red oxford button-down shirt, olive cotton slacks, black socks and shoes and white Hanes boxer-briefs.  
**Disclaimer** : As an engineer, I fully admit to having absolutely zero fashion sense and even less color coordination ability.

The dark red with the olive doesn’t look too bad, but I have a feeling anyone with an ounce of style would probably take one look and run screaming from the room. _Sigh_ Fortunately, I’m surrounded by other engineers who are either as color-blind as myself or too polite to say anything. :dubious:
