I'm currently setting up my packing list in Word, and on the datasheet titled "tops", 11 of the 17 jumpers/blouses listed have the adjective 'striped' assigned to them. Oops ( Read more... )

Trousers in general are a gian pita. My selection currently consists of:

a) grey ones which are comfy, but way too large and long, and thus hang off my hips in a ridiculous manner (wear regularly)
b)pinstripe black ones which are nearing their expiration date but are otherwise fine (wear regularly)
c) new pinstripes from DP, which are already fucked after only a couple of times of wearing them, so cannot do so again, as look HIDEOUS
d)about ten billion pairs that are far too tight to wear, and about 2 pairs that vaguely fit but are either too short/too wide or look really crap.

Impressive, no?

I have two decent pair of pants that havae 3/4 length legs, so those are useless. I have two nice pants - one grey tweed, one camel tartan - that are too big and I'll take those to a tailor to have them taken in. And then that one pair of jeans, which is long enough and looks good but is that washed out black denim that I don't like too much. Bah.

So I'm left with that one pair of blue jeans that will rip any second now. And I should just stop ordering regular-length jeans, they are always too short and then I get annoyed and just bah. I have a few skirts, I shall become a skirt-wearer. *nods*

Sack-cloth. It's clearly the solution for all ours woes.

But skirts bring with them the problem of Rubbing Thighs, which is a Pain (quite literally)!

Not with tights! And in the summer, bicycle shorts are the solution to all problems.

Meh, I hate tights and can never find any that fit me. My legs are both too fat and long at the same time. :/ And bicycle shorts would just be too hot for me in summer I think.

Then again, I found this friction-reducing spray for feet recently, and it works ACES on thighs. Also keeps them nice and cool :)

I like tights, but I tend to buy 1 Euro ones cause I just can't wear them without getting ladders in them. Though nice, thick cotton tights in winter are lovely, possibly because they're such a childhood thing.
