I did not realize that I was following a dress code
The other day, while DH and I were walking out of WalMart towards the parking lot, I realized that almost all the women were dressed like me or was I dressed like them! The only two that I spotted that were dressed differently were young like in their early 20's.
The others, like me, head full of gray hair, feminine t-shirt, capris and sports shoes. Kind of like we were the Stefford grannies (even though I'm not a granny yet - hopefully someday). And as soon as I get home, the shoes come off - even if it's winter. Do you find yourself dressing the same way day after day? I think I have only worn a dress a couple of times since I retired - which was 18 years ago! |
Jeans and t-shirt or capris and t-shirt. That's me every day.
|
Workout capris in the warm weather. Longer workout pants or sweats in the cold weather. My t-shirts consist of St. Louis Cardinals shirts or Louisville Cardinals shirts. At least the mascot is the same...it makes it easier! :) I wear white sneakers all the time!
My mother will be 98 at the end of this month. In the back of my mind I think what in the world will I wear when she dies!! |
Comfort trumps fashion for me. I can't even remember the last time I wore high heels.:D
|
I remember wearing HIGH heels when I was younger. Now I'd probably fall and break my neck. When my mom passed away I had to go out and buy new clothes and shoes because I didn't own anything suitable. LOL
|
Sweat pants and t shirts for me, occasionally put on a pair of "jeans". I've never been big on "dressing" up, and luckily most of my employment was in warehouse type positions.
|
sweats and t-shirts ... sandals or mules ..... jeans and shirt or sweater if I go someplace. Wow! didn't realize I had adopted "the uniform" and I thought I was non-conformist. Gotta' change something here ....

Can't remember the last time I wore pantyhose! I always wear shoes I slip on, tennies and all.... Wearing capris or long jeans, I must be with the "in" crowd. : )

It's usually jeans and a t-shirt. Haven't worn a dress or heels since 2009 -(son's wedding). Comfort is the name of the game. I have a closet full of dressy shirts, which I wear, paired with "dress" jeans, when we go out. We live a simple life, and I'm surely never going to win a fashion award....yup...must be the "old lady dress code"! LOL!
