I won't normally do two posts on one day, but I'm pretty busy over the weekend and had something else to chat about.
I don't know about other people, but I love nothing more than a bit of bad taste, cheap-ish clothes every now and then. I don't know if it's an age thing (I'll wear what I want) or just the fact that I love adding something random to my attire to make myself smile - yes, it's all about me! : )
It originally started in Primark (and mainly continues on there) when myself and a mate of mine both quite liked picking up ugly looking knickers (kind of like women's y-fronts with pictures on or in vulgar colours). I don't know what it was, I think it's just because when I wore them I would have a secret smile going on in my head "Yes, I'm wearing hideous under garments and no one knows". It's not as if they were old, they were just new and crazy looking, lol.
Anyway, this soon went on to other forms of clothes and yes, it's Primark's fault! If they are going to sell hideous items for cheap, why not buy them - I always have enough fancy dress events to go to (another subject, another time). Oh and then their' TK Maxx as well! When shopping with a friend for wedding dresses and bridesmaid stuff, we tried on some awful clothes just for the heck of it and took pictures - it was a LOT of fun!
My most recent purchases are: a pair of female Bermuda shorts with goldfish on (wore those with flip flops around Oxford when I ran out of clothes whilst away), bright pink care bear pants (you are never too old to care, lol), cocktail shaped sunglasses in January (can you believe it) but we gave them away. Oh and I bought a blue wig, but it's not bad looking and it was only £6!
I say as you get older, go wild! I've spent enough of my life caring what people think and it never makes you happy. So people, go out there and be proud to be loud. My day couldn't be any better when I know I have one little secret from everyone : )
