Me and Pete do dressing gowns around the house. In fact on Monday our guests turned up at 9:30 to watch BB and there we were resplendent in them. Pete's is scary as it is short and keeps falling open. Mine is grey and fleecy although I have a Confessions of a Milkman style job too which is see thru black chiffon with ostrich feather trim. I have not got to wear it for ages, sadly.
Ok, I'm lying. Still in my PJs. The Electric Salmon toenails are for real tho.

Jogging bottoms or drawstring trousers and old t-shirt for mooching round the house, definitely no slippers.
Forgot aftershave - Hugo Boss and jewellery - silver ring on first finger left hand, gold signet ring (not nice but was present from Dad) silver and green watch and a silver bracelet from Bali
Going out clothes...oh yeah, a good trick is that if your female friends say they like an item of clothing, it's pretty safe that other girls will too ;-)

But you can't stop doing it, can you. CAN YOU??
Mark.S - is your buttons stance purely borne of progressive ideology, or do you have a FEAR OF BUTTONS. It's quite a common phobia, apparently. My sister's ex-boyfriend used to have it. Her current one is, I discovered this weekend, freaked out by touching flour. Honestly, my sister and her freaky men. Why can't she choose a normal, psychotic boyfriend like everyone else?
Lounging around clothes: Um, whatever's available. When I was working out last night I had on my grey sweatpant-material-shorts on (they're cute, drawstring waist, from the GAP, cost me $5) and my white Board Girl t-shirt with blue trim on the cuff and neckline. During the winter I almost invariably wear the same sort of top (tight t-shirt or camisole) with these fucking enormous fuzzy black GAP pajama bottoms. They're waaaay too big on me, which is amazing.
Going out clothes: Changes a lot. I have vowed to NEVER AGAIN wear my old favorite going out outfit, which was a black wrap shirt, black skirt and fishnet stockings with my whore shoes, ever ever again because every time I do it pours rain and my friends force me to march places that are dirty and disgusting and I end up sleeping in them. So I don't wear that. Last time I went out-out I wore my GAP ultra-low-rider jeans, my posh spice sandals (thus named, incidentally, cos they look like the ones posh wears in the Spice liner, ankle band plus single band over the toe, with 4 inch heel), and some black shirt. Next time I go out-out, which will be this weekend, I want to wear my pirate shirt, which is this wicked cool white see-thru blouse with ruffles, it kicks the ass of all other white shirts. I like to wear jeans with heels. Otherwise it's knee- length skirts, I don't "do" miniskirts cos my thighs are enormous. I also wear corsets going out every once and a while, though I haven't found a place nice enough to wear my blue one yet.

Wardrobe: over a hundred tour/band shirts from here, there and everywhere, about eight pairs of shorts (varying colors) and a similar number of pants (predominantly black, white and tan), about eight to ten formal dress or informal but buttoned shirts (mostly black and white, long and short sleeve both), fancy dress suit good for weddings, old blazer from my grandfather also useful, about eight sweaters of varying styles/colors, a very nice parka jacket, two pairs of black Reeboks, a load of variously colored socks and boxers, this, that, the other...

I have some astonishingly tight metallicy jeans that I never wear to work.
What, Nick, you as well? Paul has a pair of those we got in NYC. I practically had to pry him out of them for a few weeks, now he never wears them. Which is a shame, really. More boys should wear astonishingly tight silver trousers. Mmmm.

I could use some happy right now so that's good to know.
Orange obsession evidence = my nails from a couple weeks ago which were sorta scary at first but once I got used to they were great.

AWWWWWWWWWWW.
I was thinking recently about all the clothes I've lost over the years. I'm especially sad about numerous band shirts that I'd probably only wear to bed now but would still love to have for the memories etc.

x-post Sounds pretty dapper tbh.
When I'm at home and know I'm not going out for the night I pretty much always change into lounging clothes hence the hoddie/stretch pants combo.
