[QUOTE=An Arky] Try saying that to a lady IRL, then you’re going to be following it up with _Gloom, despair and agony on me (whooooa!) Deep dark depression, excessive misery (whooooa!) If it weren’t for bad luck, I’d have no luck at all (whooooa!) Gloom, despair and agony on me!_ or maybe _Well, where are you tonight? Why did you leave me here all alone? I searched the world over And I thought I found true love But you met another, and sbbpht, you was gone!_ Can you tell I had to sit thru Hee Haw every.Saturday.night as a kid? 😃 [/QUOTE] Ooh, baby!!

This morning I was faced with my typical summertime dilemma: long sleeves, and swelter driving to and from work; or short sleeves and run my space heater all day? Today I opted for short sleeves and the heater. The men who apparently work comfortably in this icebox are frequently amused by the wave of heat they feel when passing by my office. ---

A much too short red dress that I bought on Sunday when shopping with my mum. (Bless her, when I took it from the rail she said, ‘Oh that’s a lovely tunic, it would look so good over black jeans!’. I said, ‘Ma, just cos you’re old and can’t show yer legs, is no reason for me not to.’ 😃 ) Wearing it with black tights and pumps because it’s raining today, but wore it just with sandals (and underwear!) on Monday because it was sunny. People looked. :o ---

New day, almost same outfit. This one has a stain on the pants in a different spot (why do all my black pants have red spots?!) and a silver shirt that really is too big for me. But it’s silver so I don’t care. ---

very see through purple bra with matching panties. Fitted indigo blue jeans and a low cut white top under a low cut wrap around green top. I also have decided to put some accessories - long black beads and a pair of godl hello kitty shoes/pumps. However when I go to bed in a few hours I’ll be wearing nothing but a smile… _wink wink_ lol ---

Coral hued strapless sundress, flesh colored strapless bra, matching boy-short panties. Took my shoes off when I got inside, but I had my favorite new espadrilles on while I was out. ---

Okay, home from work. Now wearing my Aunt Eleanor’s house dress. It’s cotton, circa 1968, a-line, mid- calf length. Red and white tropical flower print. Sleeveless. Hem has come unstitched, but I think it just gives me that artsy devil-may-care look! 😃 And I’m of course wearing skivvies. I personally think it’s freaky not to wear underwear, but I recognize that this is my own issue. Later on this evening I’m going out to a weekly trivia contest thing with my coworker where I do karaoke on weekends. We went last week and won 2nd place, thirty bucks, whoo-hoo! Anyhow, for that I’ll change back into jeans and my Copacabana t-shirt, with requisite black ankle boots, black belt, boring underwear and crew socks. ---

At work now. Tan summer suit, white shirt, a purply/raspberry tie with small white polka dots, black belt and wingtips, tan socks. Comfortable, but looking forward to shorts and a T-shirt when I get home. ---

This thread _is_ strangely compelling. Me? Black-and-white empire-waist silky top and long black ankle-length black skirt; high heel black sandals. Black Victoria’s Secret push-up bra. Gotta get the girls up for a (uncharacteristically, for me) low-cut top! 😃 Watch, wedding rings, black and white pearl ring. Onyx asymmetrical three-pendant necklace (sort of hard to explain) and dangly silver earring. Oh and a sweater (black) because it’s cold in my office, too! I do wear colors quite often, honest. ---

[QUOTE=rinni] And a rainbow thread bracelet that I never remove. [/QUOTE] Oh, okay, then I should add, I’ve got a red thread bracelet that I never remove from my wrist, and one white one from around my neck (guess that’s more of a necklace though) ---

A day later…two tank tops (layered), the inner one cream and the outer burnt red. [A full ankle-length skirt (my favorite one) in several dozen different colors and prints.](http://www.travelsmith.com/jump.jsp?itemID=5633&itemType=PRODUCT&path=1%2C2%2C250%2C525&iProductID=5633&sortBy=0) ---

Khaki trousers, a red polo shirt, sketcher mariners, and dark socks. There is no one on this earth attracted to me accept my wife (and she feels obligated). ---

I have been determined to wear more skirts, so today I am wearing a nice little outfit I picked up at Macy’s: A green shirt with beading around the neckline, and a white border. A black skirt with green and white flowers. It’s just past the knee and pleated. Sandals. My usual assortment of jewelry that I almost never remove: the two pairs of tiny gold hoops, the gold necklace with the pendant, and the diamond flower in my nose. And unlike normal, I am wearing a green jade bracelet to match the dress. White cotton bra, and white cotton panties with flowers on them. Sandals. Hairclips. Oh, and of course my glasses [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/what-are-you-wearing-right-now/458091.md?page=4) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/what-are-you-wearing-right-now/458091.md?page=6)
