I was in the bedroom trying to find something to wear for tomorrow, "Canada Day" Yahooooooooo.  I put on a pair of light beige capri pants and a nice light brown tee shirt.  Gillian walks in, looks at the capri's, and says "was I with you when you brought those"


(Gillian is my wonderful wife of 33 years)  I have to say that as she's standing over my shoulder 

I know exactly what you men Stephanie. I get that from my wife all the time.
That colors not right for you. That nail polish is too bright. You're not going to wear that
are you? And yes, Was I with you when you bought that? (LOL)

Cassie

I am just glad to see that y'all have loving wives that make sure you don't leave the house looking like a fasion don't.  You could have a wife that doesn't tell that your butt looks big in those jeans.  LOL

Too true, I'm very lucky to be blessed with my wife, she is my rock.

Chat later

Steph

LOL, my ex said one day, "I've always hated that shirt. It just doesn't hang right", when I was getting dressed for work. I said, "wow, that's harsh." Turns out she thought it was her shirt I was wearing.

Dennis

LOL, I get all of those sayings too. From wife of 36 years. Yes, I'm very lucky to have her. There is one other sayings, I should say two other. You are too old for that or your not that old yet. It makes you feel so silly. She says it whenever I go out shopping by myself, plus all the other sayings. I wish I could have gone to Girl High School and taken that class. Maybe I can still enroll, at the Community College maybe?

QuoteMaybe I can still enroll, at the Community College maybe?

Yeh, that's what we need a college course. for MtF it would be under womens studies. Transition 101. 

Course covers:
Hair, age appropriate dress, makeup, and snappy comebacks for lame pick up lines. (LOL)

Cassie

transition for dummies  .

Shelley

Awwwwwwwww, come on, you're getting off topic    Oh well, if you can't beat them join them...

How about a 13 Step Program    Now here's the challenge - Come up with the 13 Steps.

Chat later, you nut bars...

Steph

Step 1: I admit that I am powerless over styles and colours.

Step 2: I have come to believe that a fashion sense more powerful than mine will restore me to social acceptance.

Step 3: Made a decision to give up on ever understanding what goes with what and why.

Step 4: Made a searching and fearless inventory of my closet and my underwear drawer.

Step 5: Admitted to myself and my wardrobe consultant that I am hopeless at picking my own ties.

Step 6: Was entirely ready to allow a wardrobe consultant free reign in fixing my appalling lack of taste.

Step 7: Humbly asked a wardrobe consultant to give me a clue.

Step 8: Made a list of what ties go with what shirts and made sure not to wear the wrong ones.

Step 9:  Made direct admissions of having worn uncomplimentary shades of green, even if it would make people think less of me.

Step 10: Continued to ask other people for a clue about clothing.

Step 11: Sought through regular purchases to maintain contact with a wardrobe consultant.

Step 12: Tried to have fun with it, even in the face of relentless teasing.

Yeah, so it's only 12 steps

Dennis

Now that's good, I vote we put it in the Wiki 

Oh yes before I forget

Step 13   Never wear socks with sandals

Steph

Unless your English and lily white on a beach in Australia .

Actually Step 13 should be:

Apologise to all my family, friends and associates whom I have offended with my lack of fashion sense.

Cassie

Now we're getting some where. I like this. Very intertaning.!!!!

Oh my ...

Is this one of the many pleasures I have to look forward to?

I hadn't even thought of fashion issues 

As you can see some of us are fashion issues. LOL

My wife won't allow me to shop for clothes without proper supervision.  Something about fashion dyslexia
