Okay, confess. What ridiculous oufit are you likely to be caught dead in today - in the name of love and all? Me, prolly a pair of red velvet fitted boxer briefs and a red rose in my teeth. (The vodka is in the bar cabinet for all those that need to wash the image from their eyes and mind.) ---

I try not to succumb to the Holiday-Gotta-Dress-In-the-Right-Colors trap. I’m wearing brown and rhubarb. But I do have a fake diamond heart necklace on today. But I’ve been wearing it for weeks. ---

We’re a permanently casual at work (and I usually avoid it), but opted for Tommy Jeans (nice conserv. ones, a button down Nautica shirt and nice dress/casual shoes. Nice belt. Nothing spectacular abour the undergarments…nice boxer briefs. Won’t see the wife today, as I have to go to school tonight. ---

Dog-collar bracelet Tribal spike necklace Silver dangle earring with stars. ---

☹ we still have influenza A in chezAru, my concession to valentines day is a bright red shirt. Phlip brought us breakfast, with juice in some spanish glass goblets, homemade chicken soup in the good dishes, and our tamiflu on a cute silver salver. Did I also mention it is our 14th anniversary today? :rolleyes: ---

When I go home tonight I’m going to throw on a kilt. I figure that’ll go nicely with dram of Irish whisky, the roaring fire, and the general lack of companionship. Efff that pink and red crap. And I’ve decided not to commerce in the gentalia of plants anymore. Stranger ---

Since today is my son’s birthday, I’m wearing my regular mom clothes. However, tonight I’ll be wearing [strings](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=302221) held together by a small piece of fabric. ---

Right now I’m wearing a dark pink mock-turtleneck pullover, under a grey fleece button front shirt (because I’m cold, dammit) and jeans - plus cutesy Valentine socks. If the WryGuy gets home at a decent hour AND I can get the kid to consent to go to bed before 10:00pm tonight, I will later be wearing white lace (and my cutesy socks, of course.) ---

I’m wearing what I wear every Monday–scrubs. I went and wore the red ones yesterday, not thinking, so today I’m wearing the lavender pants with a top printed with kitties and little animal-hospital birdhouses. It’s got lots of hearts and flowers on it. No special underthings, either, just the usual cotton underpants and white bra. I figure the dogs and my coworkers don’t much care what I’m wearing. ---

At the moment I’m in wool accountant togs. Tonight I expect to be wearing a touch of mascara and a dab of dark chocolate behind each ear. ---
