Once, I had this one particularly dirty job with great PR responsibilities. A frequent quip, when at my grubbiest, was, "I'm in this for the glory, of course." Just now I took a break from bodging up the Spirituals Permathread to do something in the kitchen; I had a similarly wry thought as I stepped into the warm, fuzzy slippers needed when I sit for a long time in the frigid corner where the computer chair is. "Oh yeah, there's WYS the Glamorous," I thought.

So of course it led me to wonder-- what are YOU folks wearing?

I've got on grey rubber boots, that were my youngest daughter's when she was in elementary school, into which I've stuffed my grubby baggy khaki pants. I've got my brown vest on with burn holes, a grey sweater, black socks with holes in the toes and my filthy old manure stained hooded wetskins jacket with a broken zipper, rips and tears and some glued patches.....and I haven't combed my hair in two days.

Think I'll go back out if the rain eases a bit and fart around in the yard some more.

Black Keen lace-up shoes which sometimes keep my feet too warm, a hard thing to do usually! Glasses, clean hair pulled back in a scrunchie. When I was chilly, I also had on a scrumptious purple pullover sweater which I adore. It's shapeless, cuddly, and warm. Nothing glam about any of it.:-)

Here I am wearing black poly/cotton trousers, a pale turquise and white t-shirt. No socks, black panties and 2 bras, one normal and one sports one for extra scaffolding and support for my line dancing earlier on this evening.

I am just so unglamourous - AND PROUD of it. I am also wearing specs, having taken my contact lenses out not more than 15 mins ago.

My hair is a mess - and I gave up on wearing make up months ago.

I am also wearing 3 pairs of small hoop ear rings in my ears, and a small silver hoop on my left nostril, and a small discreet, black flat nose stud on my right nostril - I never remove these.

I am also wearing a small dragion tattoo on my back.

Shortly I will be getting into my lovely baggy pale pink pyjamas.

Is that enough information for all.

I recently did purchase, at Frenchy's (Nova Scotia's premiere chain of second hand clotheing stores), a perfect glamourous folkie dress. It's long, black, cotton with an embroidered black on black velvet buttoned bodice and a fringed hem. What those Boston people throw away! Unfortunately I haven't had anywhere glamourous enough to wear it yet, and the cat would go nuts on the fringes if I wore it around the house.

I've got a whole wardrobe of wool plaid--Woolrich, Pendleton, and one that my aunt made for my dad way back when he was my size. Most of them are older than I am, but you can't beat a good wool plaid shirt.

My favorite folkie dress is the stylized Afghan tribal dress my mother bought me for birthday/Christmas when I was fifteen--cobalt blue rayon with embroidery all over the front and big bell sleeves. I wore it so much my brother finally had to beg me not to wear it to his wedding.

Nightshirt and a red tartan longsleeved nightshirt over the top as a dressing gown. Both came from the Salvation Army thrift shop, where I buy most of my clothes. Nothing on my feet - I can't stand them being too warm as that starts of the restless leg syndrome. Oh, and I'm wearing a necklace I also got from the above - checking out to make sure it's silver, which it does seem to be.

I have a sort of uniform, either blue or black jeans (shorts for summer), and t-shirt. Rarely wear button up shirts. If I'm chilly, on goes a fleese vest or a Leafs jersey. Socks with shoes (often Doc Martins) or sandles (gasp!). About twice a year I go to a work wear store to refresh (I wouldn't say "update") the uniform...you know, pack of socks and undies, jeans if I need 'em, maybe a pair of shorts. Much prefer those free festival and music industry t-shirts, Leafs-wear, and ones with fish on them.

Not too imaginative, but simple and practical.

well, as it the middle of a hot summer day I'm sitting here being cooled by a small fan, wearing an ankle length black cotton/rayon vee-necked loose dress with elbow length sleeves. The skirt is scattered withe gold stencilled shapes. I have 3 similar dresses - 2 are fuschia, one is aqua. They are floaty & cool & used to be working/going out dresses. The black one was in the way yesterday when I got my camping gear out from under my bed, so I removed it & worked in singlet & petticoat.

Today's singlet is a dark bluey-green that does not go with anything I own, petticoat is black, bra beige with non-matching knickers, & I have bare feet, my hair in a plait over my shoulder held by small black elastic thingy, silver sleepers in ears (2 different sizes) & silver bangle that lives permanently on my left wrist.

If it was winter I'd be wearing medium trackies & medium fleecy top & fleecy vest instead of the dress, & maybe old hiking socks, or old leather sandals (not together) cos inner Sydney's winter is like some northern hemisphere summers! I don't have a heater, & my windows are permanently locked open!

You liked that eh, kat? Normally I don't wear my jacket and boots around the house, but I just came in for a pit stop and wasn't expecting the bowl of chili. I took a brief peak at the 'cat while it was heating and the glamour thread was the first thing I saw and I thought, "Yeah, right!" LOL

Today, I'm in black. Black fleece lined tights, black turtle neck sweater, black puffy nylon vest, black socks, black shoes, black underwire bra, white panties and a few rings on my fingers.

I'm not in mourning or trying to make a goth fashion statement here, it's just happened to be what was clean that I could find quickly. Aside from other reasons, it also misses the glam mark because under the light dusting of white dog hair, the tights have holes, the sweater has pulls, the vest has a few splatters of white paint or bleach on it, my socks are full of hay seeds and the shoes are flats not spikes.

Ah well....even I will concede, it's a bit of an improvement over yesterday and who knows, I might be inspired by this thread to pay more attention................or lie.

I prefer the whole cat. He's trying to climb into my pocket at the moment... perhaps that's where I put the cat treats?

A floor-length silver evening gown covered in sequins, bright red lipstick and a cigarette holder.

No, not really (alas): pin-striped pajama bottoms, grey boiled wool clogs (no socks), a pink tank top with "Bele Chose" in script across the front, given me by my dirty-minded medievalist boyfriend, and an ancient plaid flannel bathrobe, all set off to perfection by hair pulled up on top of my head in a scrunchy.

Maybe I'd better think about getting in the shower, hmmm?

Well, Alba, if we don't cover up, how can we flash when a post particularly inspires?

I've also been known to Mudcat in my bathing suit when I get home from the day's aquatic workout and haven't changed yet. I also have one suit (mine's purple and black) that's especially supportive that I sometimes wear when I clean the kitchen, and I know that one's been to Mudcat as well.

You know I was wondering if I should perhaps take to heart this little speech delivered by Meryl Streep in the Devil wears Prada as I slipped into my....slightly worn (bin worthy) wolly blue sweater this morning to walk to Hound..... the speech went like this.

Miranda Priestly played by Ms Streep: This... 'stuff'? (talking about high end fashion) Oh... ok. I see, you think this has nothing to do with you. You go to your closet and you select out, oh I don't know, that lumpy blue sweater, for instance, because you're trying to tell the world that you take yourself too seriously to care about what you put on your back. But what you don't know is that that sweater is not just blue, it's not turquoise, it's not lapis, it's actually cerulean. You're also blindly unaware of the fact that in 2002, Oscar De La Renta did a collection of cerulean gowns. And then I think it was Yves St Laurent, wasn't it, who showed cerulean military jackets? And then cerulean quickly showed up in the collections of 8 different designers. Then it filtered down through the department stores and then trickled on down into some tragic casual corner where you, no doubt, fished it out of some clearance bin. However, that blue represents millions of dollars and countless jobs and so it's sort of comical how you think that you've made a choice that exempts you from the fashion industry when, in fact, you're wearing the sweater that was selected for you by the people in this room. From a pile of stuff.

Thing is I did find the blue (maybe even cerulean) sweater I have selected to wear this morning in a clearance bin...LOL.

It isn't nice to "out" other Catters, but one of them was once well-known for wearing...... bubblewrap. Another was said to wear naught but socks. I fear those times are past and gone. (Or were they lying as much as some of us in this thread?)

I know if all I was wearing was socks, they'd be doing double-duty as boob-warmers.

Ah well... we must do what we can to uphold Mudcat standards.

Yes, Mudcat is definitely Glam Central. Now I suppose people googling for glam will cruise in here in droves.

OK, by now I certainly have been up long enough that I ought to be wearing clothes, instead of the shapeless cotton knit nightie I cut the sleeves off of because they were too tight. There's glamour-- I didn't even sew the cut parts down, I left 'em in place!

Now if I could just determine if I could get those pantlegs suffed into me rubber boots. LOL

I have a handmade duct tape wallet should anyone like to borrow it to match their duct tape suit! It is shiny silver with bits of sticky parts here and there. It is a unique, one-of-a-kind accessory made by a very creative, thoughtful and talented 12 year old young lady (who recently played the part of Henry Ford in a local play). She is a bit of a fashion diva herself, often sporting bright pink feathery collars, faux leopard outerwear carrying a backpack loaded down with multitudes of hanging stuffed animals and other assorted figures. :)

As for my glamourous self today, I'm wearing jeans, a long sleeved purple top, whatever socks were in the top of the drawer, pink slippers, silver hoops, wedding rings and hair pulled back in a high bun with wispies poking out all over the place. My shirt is adorned with several strands of thread as I am sewing (with a snip, snip here and a snip, snip there....you know the rest!).

Don't forget, the duct tape wallet is yours to borrow.....I do think it would go well with Alba's cerulean sweater (Hi Sweet Woman!)!!!

Sitting here at the moment in whitey tighties, t-shirt, jeans, white cotton socks, and a long-sleeve shirt from sidewalk bargain day, in a pattern I don't begin to know how to describe.
Just spent a solid week with a leg so sore I could barely shift around in bed, let alone get up (I'm walking gingerly now, and have an MRI in the morning.) That was far and away the longest time I've spent stark naked since I was a fetus.

Its amazing what a strip of duct tape on the outside seam of your pants can do.

Thats right! Now put strips from the shoulders to the wrist on the outside edge. Put another strip around the top of your gum boots.

Make yourself a ray gun and a helmet...

A week and a half later, still maintaining my glam standards-- how about youse?

Me, blue cotton knit housedress with sleeves cut off, faithful fuzzy red slippers, two pairs of glasses.

I found a second pair of those slippers, BTW, not for the 3 bucks the first pair cost me but for $2! Already wishing I'd bought more. One pair for downstairs, one pair for upstairs, one pair for camper, one pair in closet to replace first pair when they wear out..... Faulkner would like me to get him a dozen pairs to sew into a large cushion for him, LOL!

Actually, I look pretty good today in office clothes. Light brown skirt (oddball color--sort of the color of powdered cocoa), light blue T-shirt, lapis blue turtleneck, stockings (even though I hate nylons), brown shoes, and my office jacket. My office is cold so I bought my brother's outgrown Union Army sack coat to wear to work. The wool is the perfect weight, it has a handy inside breast pocket, and it's a nice, dignified, dark blue.
