A white boat-necked, cap-sleeved top with red polka dots, a black linen straight skirt and red cork soled slingback peeptoe wedges. No tights! It's another sunny day.

Oh my god, I'm just re-reading this thread. I can't believe I wore the hot pink tee & flower skirt in 2001. I must have been really skinny back then. I'm really sad right now, because I've got this nice blue eyelet skirt on that I paid a lot of money for, and it's several sizes too big, because I'm losing weight again.

Madchen, that sounds like the hottest outfit ever. Pictures?

― Mary (Mary), Tuesday, 10 May 2005 03:05 (twenty-one years ago)

Lounging in white terry....

― Orbit (Orbit), Tuesday, 10 May 2005 03:07 (twenty-one years ago)

I am wearing a black polo neck jumper, black straight knee length skirt, slate-grey-blue plimsolls and 'a sunny 'smile'.

OK, I lied about the 'smile'.

― Lucretia My Reflection (Lucretia My Reflection), Tuesday, 10 May 2005 07:51 (twenty-one years ago)

Aw Mary, too late - it's all in the wash.

I am continuing the theme today, with a black a-line skirt, white v-neck top, red 3/4 sleeve cardigan, a red and white polkadot neckercheif tied jauntily at one side and black pointy kitten heels. No tights again, but this is resulting in sorely blistered feet from all the shoes I haven't worn during the winter months.

― Madchen (Madchen), Tuesday, 10 May 2005 09:16 (twenty-one years ago)

four months pass...

Just wearing boxers and a hawaiian shirt and nike socks. The life of a student for another week or 3!

― cornholio_the_gringo, Monday, 26 September 2005 16:38 (twenty years ago)

one month passes...

I like my outfit today. I am wearing grey tweed shorts (just above the knee), a black wool polo-neck which is so fine you can just about see through it, black opaque tights and my favourite round-toed, high-heeled shoes.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Thursday, 27 October 2005 11:58 (twenty years ago)

Slightly off-white with black trim round-neck t-shirt from Burton, very well-worn navy jeans, slightly flared, from Next and cream Converse hi-tops.

― Cracks (Crackity), Thursday, 27 October 2005 19:05 (twenty years ago)

legwarmers. there's more, but the legwarmers take the cake.

― carly (carly), Thursday, 27 October 2005 19:08 (twenty years ago)

Blue single breasted blazer
Pink gingham shirt w/ cutaway collar
Twill pants
Oxblood cap-toed shoes
Look of total bewilderment

― M. White (Miguelito), Thursday, 27 October 2005 19:18 (twenty years ago)

I'm wearing practically everything I own so I don't have to turn the heat up.

― Beth Parker (Beth Parker), Thursday, 27 October 2005 20:05 (twenty years ago)

Red stretchy long sleeved ballet style top thing, teamed with my red and brown indian cotton hippy skirt and black shoes.

― Trayce (trayce), Friday, 28 October 2005 00:44 (twenty years ago)

Short black pleated skirt with green and grey lines through it.
Fuschia v-neck singlet with lace around top, white singlet over this, and on top of this hot-pink short-sleeve cross-over top. You might say I go for the layered look.

― salexander / sofia (salexander), Friday, 28 October 2005 01:26 (twenty years ago)

Old blue jeans, Montreal Expos t-shirt.

Crikey.

― Trayce (trayce), Friday, 28 October 2005 01:44 (twenty years ago)

it's colored saran wrap

― strongo hulkington's ghost (dubplatestyle), Friday, 28 October 2005 01:47 (twenty years ago)

Green Nike Portugal t-shirt. Grey pyjama "pants" that Virgin Atlantic gave me. Armani spectacles. green-faced Android watch.

― knife (nordicskilla), Friday, 28 October 2005 01:50 (twenty years ago)

I have on my "Moustache Night 2005" tee (yes, I actually attended), grey courdoroy pants, and a khaki courdoroy jacket. I think I decided today that more than one courdoroy item in an outfit is fashionably unadvisable.

― Hurting (Hurting), Friday, 28 October 2005 02:48 (twenty years ago)

black long-sleeved dress shirt, faded jeans, some manner of shoe, and a grim expression

― gear (gear), Friday, 28 October 2005 02:50 (twenty years ago)

Some manner of shoe? How can you not know what manner of shoe you are wearing? Do you have an extremely large belly that renders your shoes difficult to see?

― Hurting (Hurting), Friday, 28 October 2005 02:53 (twenty years ago)

herring-bone weave chocolate/sand wide-legged pants, black 3/4 sleeve top and shiny kneehigh chocolate boots. last day i'll have to wear wintery clothes to work i reckon, it is finally getting springlike. at last!

― gem (trisk), Friday, 28 October 2005 02:54 (twenty years ago)

jess are you roy orbison?

― minna (minna), Friday, 28 October 2005 04:04 (twenty years ago)

black dress shirt with thin coloured vertical stripes, dark blue jeans, these.

― BUCK BUCK, nice shot (haitch), Friday, 28 October 2005 04:25 (twenty years ago)

Black low wedge ankle-strap shoes, black opaque tights, a white v-neck sleeveless top and a blue crochet three-quarter sleeve tie-front bolero. Apparently this outfit makes me look like an administrator.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Friday, 28 October 2005 07:35 (twenty years ago)

Forgot to mention I am also wearing a skirt! (Black A-line)

― Mädchen (Madchen), Friday, 28 October 2005 07:35 (twenty years ago)

five months pass...

i like this thread. what are you wearing, people?

― lauren (laurenp), Monday, 10 April 2006 14:59 (twenty years ago)

The same jeans/t-shirt I've been wearing for what feels like two weeks now. The jeans have quite large holes in the knees and the shirt doesn't quite cover my belly. I feel like a tramp.

― melton mowbray's APOCALYPTO! (adr), Monday, 10 April 2006 15:12 (twenty years ago)

Black, long-sleeved, empire-line dress, black tights, knee high red platform boots.

― Anna (Anna), Tuesday, 11 April 2006 12:01 (twenty years ago)

Black slacks, a blue shirt with black pinstripes, black shoes, a black hoodie.

― Gilbert O'Sullivan (kenan), Tuesday, 11 April 2006 12:02 (twenty years ago)

Yeah, I'm in my tramp outfit too. Very old, battered gap hoodie in weird shade of green, my M & S £9 jeans and not very box-fresh Converses. Nice socks though.

― Ned T.RIfle II (Ned T.Rifle II), Tuesday, 11 April 2006 12:08 (twenty years ago)

I've just realised that the socks cost more than the jeans.

― Ned T.RIfle II (Ned T.Rifle II), Tuesday, 11 April 2006 12:09 (twenty years ago)

dark violet tank, J Crew light heather v-neck sweater (uh, what color is this? oatmeal?).. black trousers w/tuxedo stripe (Zara), silver grey knitted scarf from Paris craft market, vintage early 60's houndstooth coat w/mandarin collar and lots of silver buttons. yesterday I had on a kinda tulip shaped pinstripe skirt (more Zara) and an olive Comme des Garcons wool t-shirt (thrift score!).

― dar1a g (daria g), Tuesday, 11 April 2006 13:43 (twenty years ago)

is that a tank top with a v neck over the top?

me: badly ironed muji white shirt, muji v neck dark blue wool jumper, red silk tie, too-big wool suit, camper shoes.

i look liek a wreck

― ambrose (ambrose), Tuesday, 11 April 2006 14:35 (twenty years ago)

Grey t-shirt with "dickies" printed on in blue
Blue jeans from gap
Emerica trainers
Undies from George at Asda
Socks from god knows where.

― not-goodwin (not-goodwin), Tuesday, 11 April 2006 14:41 (twenty years ago)

the same thing I was wearing last time (minus the parsley butter) - I think the suit may be the same as the one tracer wore to the wedding

― gabbneb (gabbneb), Tuesday, 11 April 2006 14:42 (twenty years ago)

yeah, v neck over the top, the v neck sweater is cut very long and a long tank top underneath is necessary for it to fit properly. I do have this nifty silk tank from Ben Sherman that goes well over other blouses and tops but not today.

how can anyone look like a wreck in muji? muji is so great, I wish they'd open a store in DC.

― dar1a g (daria g), Tuesday, 11 April 2006 14:43 (twenty years ago)

this thread is crazy - when did i ever have a "raw silk shirt"???

today i'm wearing stretchy skin-tight jeans, a red and white tartan flannel that's slightly too small, and white adidas with red stripes and red shoelaces.

"hugo" by hugo boss, gabby?

― Tracey Hand (tracerhand), Tuesday, 11 April 2006 14:43 (twenty years ago)

no, guess not. it looks almost exactly the same, though yours looks better (read: slimmer)-tailored.

― gabbneb (gabbneb), Tuesday, 11 April 2006 14:46 (twenty years ago)

the muji bit looks ok except for the ironing. and weird muji collars that are really small and sort of floppy, so they kinda look weird. im into them tho. but thats just cos my friend said it was ok

― ambrose (ambrose), Tuesday, 11 April 2006 14:58 (twenty years ago)

I love muji but unless they put their sizes up to 7 or 8 I'm never gonna get in them.

Mrs Trifle got married in raw silk - i always thought it was a bit strange, I mean it's not really raw is it?

― Ned T.RIfle II (Ned T.Rifle II), Tuesday, 11 April 2006 15:10 (twenty years ago)

Today I'm wearing cheap office clothes:

Girls black fitted polo top from Target
Charcoal pinstripe a-line miniskirt from Sears
Black opaque tights from Target
Black mary-janes with double straps and cherry buckles from Hot Topic.
Gold (colored)"Lightning strikes twice" necklace from Urban Outfitters
Engagement ring.
Wedding ring.
Tinkerbell watch.
Maybelline dream mousse shimmer in 'Golden of Eden' from Kroger
Jessica Simpson's Dessert Treats hair and body shimmer mist in 'Cotton Candy' from Walgreens

I know what you're thinking: "Classy!"

Yesterday was different:

Cherry red corduroy jeans from Gap (not the red they were purchased in. i dyed them a deeper, less 80s corporate whore, red at home)
Navy t-shirt with dark red printed silver jews "peace" logo and tiny wear holes all over from Drag City Records.
Forest green chenille sox from Walgreens.
Pleasant Plains' black vans size 10 from I dont know where.
Red Earth Secret Potion in white (the best illuminator you will find ANYWHERE)from Red Earth Store, Australia.
Jessica Simpson's Dessert Treats hair and body shimmer mist in 'Cotton Candy' from Walgreens

If you havent tried it yet, I recommend wearing sneakers one size bigger than your shoe size. Its comfort and liberty all rolled up into one outstanding footwear experience. Now when I buy shoes and they arrive, I put them on and whine "Oh, crap! They fit!" It is awfully hard to go back.

― sunny successor (katharine), Tuesday, 11 April 2006 17:06 (twenty years ago)

i love sunny successor

me: pumpkin shirt, shortsleeved button-up, 55% linen 45% cotton; cheap navy barn coat as it's cold in my office; eggshell khakis; white socks; black non-leather shoes. under it all [checks]: yep, my grinch-themed boxers. JEALOUS MUCH< PUNKS?

― Haikunym (Haikunym), Tuesday, 11 April 2006 17:11 (twenty years ago)

"illuminator"?? Is it make-up? and Do I NEED it?

I have fallen into the dirtbag student swing of things. So many clothes in closet yet: Khaki stretchy jean-like pants that I wore yesterday as well, something sticky (food?) on right thigh, bright turqoise v-neck t-shirt that's all stretched out, I mean, you can see my bra and it's not a great bra, $1.99 blue chinatown slippers. I should change, everything, leave house, read somewhere else, not be dirtbag.

― rrrobyn (rrrobyn), Tuesday, 11 April 2006 17:23 (twenty years ago)

yes you need it! you know when you see actress walk down the red carpet and their cheekbones seem to shine with some kind of radiant white light? thats the work of an illuminator. some (most) cheaper brands will use glitter, which is lame for these purposes. you want an iridescent smooth liquid with no sparklies. red earth and sugarbaby make great illuminators. theres also revlon skinlights but that tends to make your face just look greasy if not used very sparingly. im sure doir and some of the better brands have some good illumators but im clueless as far as theyre concerned.

Haikunym, is eggshell a beige color or a blue color? I've never been able to get that straight.
