Friday Fives
1. Of everything in your wardrobe what do you feel the mostcomfortable wearing? Why?
Khakis and Oxford button down collar shirts. Perfect comfort. I dare say they are more comfortable than t-shirts and jeans. I have a dream to learn how to sew a shirt and then make my own very funky dress shirts. Using the traditional button down collar dress shirt pattern but make the fabric wild prints and/or jersey cotton. How much fun would that be.
2. How would you describe your style?
See shirt description above. I generally work hard to dress like Bill Murray. He is a fashion god and his sense of style is beyond reproach.
3. How many pairs of shoes do you own and do you wear them all?
About 12. Yes. I do, although a few pair of old boots need to be taken into the shoe repair shop.
4. Where do you buy most of your clothes?
ARC, Salvation Army and an of a sundry of second hand thrift shops. It is more of a shopping adventure.
5. What was the last piece of clothing you bought?
A straw cowboy hat at the Jefferson County/Colorado Gay Rodeo. (A very long and convoluted story that surprisingly involves no beer or booze on my part as the designated driver. )

Top notch. I am on the cutting edge.

A shirt from the Gap and had red wine spilled on it the first night.

It all depends on the situation. At work IÂ’m most comfortable in a shirt and tie. At home (alone), shorts and a long sleeved t-shirt.

Preppy fashionista metrosexual urban cowboy yuppie.
