I should get rid of some of them, but I get so attached to my clothes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-a-fashion-related-dirty-secret#post-307247 Thu, 03 Mar 2011 03:01:44 +0000 Queen Mum 307247@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My sock collection is quite pathetic, and whether or not my bra and panties match is doesn't bother me in the least. DH doesn't seem to care either </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-a-fashion-related-dirty-secret#post-307214 Thu, 03 Mar 2011 02:41:43 +0000 Beth 307214@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My unmentionables and socks are all in good shape and I don't own any exercise clothes.</p> <p>I will admit that in the appropriate setting, I find Bean boots or wellies and a field jacket to be a very cute look:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-a-fashion-related-dirty-secret#post-307149 Thu, 03 Mar 2011 00:45:25 +0000 Marley 307149@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My exercise clothes are in terrible shape - the waistbands on my shorts are all stretched out, my shirts are pitted out and my bras are no longer 'firm support.' Its pretty pathetic, but since I exercise outdoors (as opposed to going to a gym) I don't really fret about it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-a-fashion-related-dirty-secret#post-306982 Wed, 02 Mar 2011 20:54:05 +0000 Cilleena 306982@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm, I think everyone covered mine. Few pjs, old bras and panties, and I wear my uggs almost constantly in the winter. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-a-fashion-related-dirty-secret#post-306158 Tue, 01 Mar 2011 18:50:14 +0000 chewyspaghetti 306158@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've been shuffling around in holey toed, too big house shoes (sherpa lined slip ons) for the last couple of weeks because I don't want to buy anything new for winter right now. If my feet shrink even more, new slippers will be a complete waste right now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-a-fashion-related-dirty-secret#post-306129 Tue, 01 Mar 2011 18:07:12 +0000 Lori 306129@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can rarely find matching socks, and often wear two different ones under boots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-a-fashion-related-dirty-secret#post-306107 Tue, 01 Mar 2011 17:24:36 +0000 Debora 306107@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My favorite flannel bathrobe is threadbare! I just recently discovered a hole in the sleeve this past week, and the sash is starting to shred. I've had it for years; it's super soft and comfy from being washed so many times. I hate the thought of having to replace it.</p> <p>Patty, I've been known, in a pinch, to use duct tape and a stapler to repair hems on the high school marching band uniforms. Desperate times call for desperate measures, especially with wardrobe malfunctions! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-a-fashion-related-dirty-secret#post-306090 Tue, 01 Mar 2011 16:51:14 +0000 Patty 306090@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes---I've used duct tape to fix a hole in my pants--temporarily mind you!<br /> And I like wearing mismatched coloured striped socks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-a-fashion-related-dirty-secret#post-306054 Tue, 01 Mar 2011 16:01:53 +0000 biscuitsmom 306054@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have way too many clothes, but only 3 nightgowns! Cant even remember buying them -they are SO old! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-a-fashion-related-dirty-secret#post-305871 Tue, 01 Mar 2011 04:56:21 +0000 Mac 305871@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I find my undies at their comfiest when they are old and have been washed so many times that they are super-soft... you can imagine how they look at that point! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-a-fashion-related-dirty-secret#post-305844 Tue, 01 Mar 2011 03:33:44 +0000 Elly 305844@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm, honestly, I overshare alot and tend to post my "secrets" all over the forum-- like the grandma hand-me-down thing and the fact I have worn prom dresses to other occasions ( I still wear them to weddings! gasp). Maybe the fact that I don't have a pair of undies that doesn't look like dogs or mice have chewed on it? That or I own many pieces of men's hand-me-down clothing and two things I bought to wear camping that make their way to school on occasion (I know!). Maybe the fact that my clothes are so odd that I never had a piece of women's clothing stolen out of the dryers at any laundromat or washroom while I was in college, but had men's clothing and towels stolen frequently. I also have a fondness for ballcaps. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-a-fashion-related-dirty-secret#post-305818 Tue, 01 Mar 2011 03:06:53 +0000 catgirl 305818@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's no secret, but much of my high end gear is well over 10 years old. And I rarely wash it, in order to keep the "performance" qualities like waterproofness and stretch. But with gear I feel it is not about style (I'm talking clothes that have to take a beating), so until it rips or no longer fits, it stays. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-a-fashion-related-dirty-secret#post-305795 Tue, 01 Mar 2011 02:41:05 +0000 Mo 305795@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>More than one of my bras has been (badly) altered by me to be 33B+s over the years Luckily I now seem to fit 32C mostly and only have to sometimes pull cups together with, again bad, alteration attempts. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-a-fashion-related-dirty-secret#post-305787 Tue, 01 Mar 2011 02:35:43 +0000 Refugee 305787@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Let's just say that many of my 'unmentionables' are just that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-a-fashion-related-dirty-secret#post-305783 Tue, 01 Mar 2011 02:33:47 +0000 nicoleb 305783@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Whaaaaaat your dirty secret is that your gym socks are scuzzy?? I think you can do better than that lol. There's no way i'm putting mine down now! XD </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-a-fashion-related-dirty-secret#post-305782 Tue, 01 Mar 2011 02:33:12 +0000 Maya 305782@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>We have had threads like this in the past. I also suffer in the sock department. I have mostly decent, even cute socks...but the comfiest ones are the pilled, thick, white, yucky ones. I only ever wear them with boots though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-a-fashion-related-dirty-secret#post-305779 Tue, 01 Mar 2011 02:29:44 +0000 Stephanie 305779@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was just sorting laundry and realizing how embarrassingly dismal (greyish, thin-worn, etc.) my athletic socks are. It's funny, because I'm generally extremely fastidious about clothes, accessories, lingerie, shoes, etc. I'm even good about 'normal' (dress) socks and stockings. But I never think about my athletic socks unless I have a reason to expose them (and then I'm totally embarrassed!). Anyone else have a sartorial blind spot? </p>
