I love to dress up for dinner, company parties, theater - have a closet full of dresses and heels sitting right next to my jeans, shorts, t-shirts, and flipflops which are my usual daily attire :-)

The last time I wore high heels and a dress would have been for a wake and funeral.
I do not like to get dressed up to go out for dinner as it is a bit uncomfortable.

I love my jeans and clogs and sweat****s or warm winter sweaters. I work with babies and toddlers who drool a lot...so fancy is not in my wardrobe.

I can't remember the last time I wore a dress w/heels and hose. I wear skirts down here about once/week, but they're denim, very casual, or skorts. I'd like to go out to dinner fancy like that once in a while, but DH's idea of "going out to dinner" is chinese or Buddy Freddy's.

Taciturn?? I don't think I know anybody that fits that!

Wore a dress and hose just last week to Valentine's Day banquet at church, a very "dressy dress" too. I wear dresses and hose to church on Sunday too, but I often wear nice slacks to church often as well.

I have to drag and I mean drag hubby out to buy a suit in the next week or so
we have my nieces wedding coming up so I will be dress shopping at the same time

She decided that since I am her godmother I am to be "escorted" up the aisle right before her mom. So it's going to be the whole "shabang" guess I am even going to even break out the makeup lol

woo hoo I even get a corsage lol do any of you remember the "friends" episode where Phoebe pinned that huge honking xmas corsage on her dress to cover a stain for a formal event

I keep teasing my niece that thats the kind I want.

lol life is so much more relaxed when your retired

Last time I wore a dress was summer, does sundress count? Wore it to church, no nylons of course.

Last time I wore a real dress and got all dressed up fancy was 2 years ago when I went to a Maxim party during superbowl.


Pass the chili please, Coney Island chili that is!
