Today my husband and I showed up to work (same place, different times) unintentionally wearing the exact same outfit: red v-neck sweater, gray pants, black boots. We are so lame. 😃

</div>

J Crew narrow leg chinos, white Van Heusen button-down shirt, brown Clark’s boots, socks & boxers.

My wife and I do that all the time. Usually one will dress and go downstairs while the other is in the shower, then we both show up in the kitchen in the same outfit. The rule is the later dresser has to change, but only if we’re going somewhere together, which means usually just the weekends.

We’re lame too, but for myriad reasons.

At the office today I’m wearing jeans, a navy blue polo shirt, and my [black slip-on Merrells](http://www.merrell.com/US/en-US/Product.mvc.aspx/20464W/5417/Midnight/J60826?dimensions=0). For work I usually dress more “business casual” than casual, but most of the people here wear jeans every day and I just didn’t feel like “dressing up” this morning.

The last two times that my friend Steve and I have hung out together we’ve been dressed similarly. It cracks us up. Though I wonder if it should bother me (a straight woman) that apparently I dress like a gay man… 😉

Jeans. Shirt. And a sweatshirt with the name of a college student organization.

I was given the sweatshirt for free (student group member of the month or something like that). 🙂 And I’m wearing it because the temperature is near freezing this week. 🆒

Bathrobe. Yes, that’s it, just a bathrobe. Hey, I’m off work and don’t have to go anywhere, why bother to get fancy? Alice, you can now stop feeling undressed.

(If I do decide to go out later it it will be sweatshirt and blue jeans with long underwear, wool socks, and a coat and hat. 'Cause it’s cold out there!)

Gap jeans, pale pink tank top, three-quarter sleeved hooded t-shirt with buttons. Wedding and engagement rings. Watch. Glasses. I am at home with two small people and bound to be covered in someone’s food.
