Some day Stacy and Clinton will darken my door
I’m a prime candidate for the show What Not To Wear. I am a fashion moron, a fashionista’s nightmare a slob–I’m not kidding here folks. If it weren’t for my dear friend G, I wouldn’t have a thing to wear that wasn’t a T-shirt, or a sweatshirt with jeans. Most of my jeans are ratty looking and my choice of shirts would make Stacey cringe and Clinton vomit.
As I sat there watching the show tonight (for lack of anything else interesting being on TV) I came to conclusion, that one day, in the future, one of my friends was bound to send my name into the show. If only to watch me embarrass myself in public. Then again, I often embarrass myself in public, so what else is new?
I can disgrace myself in less than a minute. Walk me into a clothing store and watch me have a complete meltdown.
“Clothes? You want me to buy clothes? Are you out of your friggin’ mind?”
On another note…Today marks the one year anniversary of this blog. When I began writing this a year ago I never expected to have as many hits or lovely comments as I’ve had. Thank you dear readers for giving me the encouragement to continue doing this.

You ought to watch some more and see the things “high fashion” Stacy wears. Clinton is slightly better, but that preppy look is totally passé – puhlese.
Loved my Landsend croc like shoes so much this summer that I’ve ordered fleece lined for the winter – practical and warm, what more do I want?
I’m at a store clerk’s mercy when I go looking for clothes that’s why I drag G along.
Shopping for clothes is easy. Find styles and manufacturers you like and stick with them. Don’t deviate, don’t go for the latest ‘look,’ don’t let the clerk talk you into anything.
I wear button-down short-sleeve oxford shirts from Penny’s, Dockers slacks, and Wrangler jeans. When I need clothes, I go in, grab what I want, and check out. Done in 5 – 10 minutes. And I don’t let the clerk con me into thinking I’ll like the puce shirt and avocado green tie they have on sale.
You are a man–nuff said. 🙂
Well…I too love my jeans or pj pants and sweetshits/teeshirts. I hate shoes and do not have any with backs. Not one pair. My glasses are always on top of my head, and life is GOOD! Congrat on the blog. I enjoy it very much! Thank you for being a part of my day!
If my glasses were on top of my head I’d be bumping into walls. 😉
Thank you! I’m honored to be a part of your day.
Congratulations on your first anniversary. This is my first year too, (as Jennie has just reminded me) 🙂
Thanks! And a happy first year anniversary to you too!
