That's the case with myself, with my leather jacket, drain pipe jeans and England T-shirts. I also know of only one type of hair style...Punked-up! I'm also more into British Football and food, than make-up. :P Yay for individuality! :)

I got the idea of creating a capsule wardrobe. I first saw it in the Sunday newspaper I think, then I downloaded a pdf from a site called Fashion for Real Women, there is an email book called Wardrobe Magic that shows you step by step how to create a capsule wardrobe. It looks a bit like its for us older women, but the principles of putting together some basics are the same.

I understand it in the book but I haven't been able to create it yet, I am working on it though :D
If I could just copy the same clothes it would be simpler.

Yes! And geranimals......I do like fashion personality since otherwise everyone looks interchangable.

From the age of 14 until I was 19, I only wore pink. I couldn't stand wearing pants either, only skirts.

Now that I am an adult, I really have no concept of style, fashion. colour. I wear the most eccentric things or things that don't match or suit my body.

I really don't care, I never saw the point of caring but it's really strange to know that other people can come up with proper outfits easily.

I can't do nothing with my hair either and honestly cannot see the point of ever wearing make-up.

I can't even get around to shaving and have no shame going out with a skirt and some hairy legs.

I saw a funny sign recently at a store, "No shirt, no shoes, no service."

As for the first statement ("No shirt") if you're female they REALLY mean it! :D

(Well, to clarify: If you're a shirtless female I bet you would get some service, and pronto! I just cannot imagine what kind of service.....hmmm) :oops:

i hate fashion and i love costume. however, for the purpose of 'fitting in' at work, this winter i will mostly be wearing:

medium to dark denim wide leg jeans, dark grey longline t-shirts (i cannot wear the current empire-line/smock type stuff but if you are a bit boyish it is still quite a useful shape!) and either polonecks in autumn shades or sweater dresses or the longline cardie is probably still acceptable wear (in london at least).

mind you, i prefer fancy dress and am glad that i have just invested in full vintage navy uniform :))
