Fashion Crisis

It's not that I don't care what I look like when I leave the house. Most days I have on makeup, I have blow dried my hair, I have put on jewelry, including earrings, necklaces, and rings. Most days I have even seriously considered whether or not it is appropriate for a woman of my age to wear tights with random swirls of color all over them and have decided it's completely fine. Most days I have showered, eaten breakfast, and weighed the pros and cons of my footwear choices.

But then there are the other days.

I collapsed on to the couch the other day when I got home in the early evening only to discover that in my haste to put on a cardigan right before I walked out the door, I had failed to notice that the cardigan was inside out. Furthermore, not a single soul mentioned it to me all day long.

I was standing in front of my evening class earlier this week, waxing poetic about process of elimination, when I reached up to scratch at my neck to realize that the tag from the dress I was wearing was right there. Yes, my friends, I had worn my dress backwards. During the break in my class, I ran into the bathroom and fixed it and just hoped that the class didn't notice the change in my neckline. Dr. BB assured me that since I was giving them riveting information in my lecture, it was unlikely that anyone noticed anything strange about my sartorial change up.

Please tell me I'm not the only one to leave the house with strange fashion mistakes.

  2. Once I somehow forgot to put on a bra before getting dressed. That was an awkward day at the office.

  3. You are not alone. I sneak out whenever I can in pj's. When you are 40, you don't care anymore, especially if you suffer from chronic illnesses like me!

    I've went out w/2 different shoes more than once!
