Hilarious! While in my car my stethoscope got tangled to my garage door opener.  At work, I wear my stethoscope around my neck.  On this day I had a garage door opener clipped to it like some kind of deranged accessory.   Once while discreetly nursing my second baby at my in-laws, I thought I had buttoned my blouse.  I was talking to my father-in-law and MIL for a good 15 minutes before I noticed that my right breast was fully exposed!  I have worn a size large sticker on a print blouse three times before noticing. I have had many earring mishaps. I am usually good about snipping threads but I'm going to double-check my vents!

Oldest first... My wedding dress was made by my MIL who is a fab seamstress. The skirt was bridal satin with layers of tulle. Underneath I was wearing white lingerie. During the day, when we did all the fittings we never noticed anything but somehow on the the night of the wedding, under the lights on the dance floor, it was apparent that it was a little see through and the white knickers became quite evident. I was dancing when my sister decided to point it out to me. I chose to ignore it because there was nothing I could do about it. Then, a few years ago, my maxi skirt got caught in an escalator and I had to rip it out with the strength of Samson to avoid losing my skirt in a shopping mall!!! And the last incident that springs to mind was just yesterday - I wore a new skirt to work. I didn't notice anything until my first trip to the loo for the day. Walking back from the bathroom, I felt something odd tickling the back of my legs and on investigation discovered that the tags were still on!!!! lyn67 on "The Fashion Confession Thread" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-fashion-confession-thread/page/3#post-1219716 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 18:13:08 +0000 lyn67 1219716@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Oh, came back to tell one more! I was in running gear for my long run(7km) in the summer. I am usually running on the streets, near a driveway and wear some 0,5kg weights on my wrists, too. They are ziplocked on my wrists  with skys. Now, I was exactly  half way of my run, when noticed the sky of one of my wrist's weight was not locked well, and  did rub so hard on my bust, that it made quite a hole on my running tank...And, yes! Exactly in the main place, where my nipple was! Of course I had a  good sports bra underneath, but that was black, and my tank was hot pink! So, quite a stylish hole of 3-4 inches round, if you can imagine! I was horrified, but couldn't  do much but run further...(I figured stop and walk  is worse:-)). Later had the  ideea to take my sweatshirt which is always tied on my hips for warmth, and tie it around my bust under my arms-annoying, but somehow did the job..can't find the pictie right now, but I can remember I have  made one when arrived home. My familly was horrified/and laughing at me at  the same time!

In fact, I've accidentally forgotten so many times that now, whenever I leave home or the washroom, I always pause to make sure that my pants are zipped... :'D K.

My bff won't buy white blouses because it is inevitable that coffee will be spilled on her chest.  I coined simple chronic coffee drinker's boob to explain her dilemma.  shiny on "The Fashion Confession Thread" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-fashion-confession-thread/page/3#post-1216437 Mon, 07 Apr 2014 17:40:05 +0000 shiny 1216437@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Most recently, on business trip to meet my new team, I came back to my hotel room and went to take a picture of my outfit for YLF. That's when I realized my fly was unzipped the whole evening. But, I don't think anyone noticed? But probably my biggest confession is how I brought the wrong underwear to Paris. Synthetic high-waisted gut-sucker underwear + 90 degree heat just doesn't work... no matter how lightweight your sundress. I wound up taking off my underwear, tucking it in my handbag, and site seeing all day long like that.... because it was much more comfortable.....and breezy! Thank goodness it wasn't windy.

I am one who frequently forgets to zip my jeans. Usually I notice first, esp. since I'm tall and like long tops. However, I have (am about to retire) a pair that has a hot pink ribbon lining in the zipper area inside, so if it is open it appears as though I am wearing hot pink underpants. People have pointed this out to me. My work keys are on a long lanyard, which annoys me because I can't wear them around my neck. I've tucked them into my pants after using the toilet and embarrassingly had to pull them out to hand to someone. I do the tag thing often, especially with one shirt. I also will admit that in high school I had this one sweatshirt that my dad found on the side of the road, that I would wear because I had a class I had to dress up for and no time to change out after it. I would change shirts under the big sweatshirt, in class! I don't know of which part I should be more ashamed.

I've gone out with unzipped pants on multiple occasions. Wore my old paint splattered painting shoes to the grocery store. Fell down the three steps to a sunken room when the shoe strap slipped off my heel. There have to be more that I have blocked from the memory banks. At least I haven't done this. Yet.

More times than I can count, I have been the person sitting around with buttons open on my shirt (I am now a safety pin master!).  There is nothing worse than not being able to recount when you last did a button check to calculate how long & how many people peeped your bra and cleavage!  Eliza on "The Fashion Confession Thread" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-fashion-confession-thread/page/3#post-1215866 Mon, 07 Apr 2014 00:03:08 +0000 Eliza 1215866@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Several years ago I had a new position. While it was hardly a fashion enclave, looking put together, professional and like I found getting dressed fun mattered to me. I drove to the office and realized I had worn my beat up "slipper" shoes that I only wear around the house due to their comfort and ability to short circuit any frump-o-meter. Never was so happy that trousers tended to have a slight flare then! Combined with PPL and a large conference table, I think I barely passed for the day. Those things were ugly. MaryK- this thread is fun. Most of us have been there!

Thanks for starting this. Shannon, you definitely win some kind of prize for your aplomb! And Lyn -- just howling here about your colleague story! Based on what I've read here, I think we can all agree that pantyhose are the devil's accomplice.  Back when I was an undergrad, I started dating somebody who fancied himself a bit of a photographer, and who often brought his camera along when we were out and so he could take candid shots. One day, looking over a series of his pictures, I was horrified to see that my light summer skirt  -- the one I reached for again and again in the hot, humid days --- was completely transparent! That skirt also managed to get stuck in my underpants once. Yes, I, too, have unwittingly displayed my undies on a city street.  So finding out that it was also see-through was the last straw.  I was on my way out to work one day, freshly showered, coifed, made up, and dressed as nicely I could at the time, when suddenly I felt something wet land on my head. Note: It was not raining or snowing.  My heart sunk. This could only mean one thing. And not a good one.  I looked up. Monsieur Pigeon cocked a beady red eye at me, as if to say: So there!!  I don't know where I gained the presence of mind to look around me on the street, but as I did, I noticed that I was steps away from an old fashioned barber shop, the kind with the red/ white/ blue pole in front.  I walked into the shop. There were a lot of pinups on the wall and several older men in the chairs, one getting a shave and the other a haircut; I can tell you, they did not look too pleased to see a 20-something girl walk into their private man space.  I showed the barber my head. He grunted, and gestured to the sink. Within a few minutes I was clean, if not dry (no girly blow dryers in this shop!!). But I never walked past that corner without looking up in fear lest a pigeon use me as a litter box again!  Anonymous on "The Fashion Confession Thread" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-fashion-confession-thread/page/2#post-1215800 Sun, 06 Apr 2014 22:26:39 +0000 Anonymous 1215800@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Some years ago dh and I were out on New Year's Eve at a nice restaurant.  They had live music, and the owner of the restaurant asked me to dance.  I was twirling all around with him, and he was looking at me admiringly and kind of grunting admiringly, and I was thinking, damn, I am a really good dancer.  Then after the song finished, he said, "You need to adjust your dress."  My strapless dress had slipped, my strapless bra had slipped, and yes, I was showing nipple.  Arg, I still get embarrassed thinking about it.  And to top it off, when I told my husband, he thought it was hilarious! lyn* on "The Fashion Confession Thread" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-fashion-confession-thread/page/2#post-1215791 Sun, 06 Apr 2014 22:14:14 +0000 lyn* 1215791@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ LOL, I'm not quite 30 and have some  curly hairs on my hand... other Lyn!

I am sure I have done the earring thing too. 2 things  happened the other day when I was waiting in line for a show with my DDs on Saturday: I noticed my daughter's new sweat top had the display-hanging ribbons showing- (I am very fussy about even removing extra labels on tops that don't show)- I see ALOT of even the really long ribbons poking out of other's clothing around here. Slightly unrelated- without my glasses I can't see a particular dark hair that grows from a spot on my hand. My DD was laughing at it and decided to pluck it out. More laughter when it CURLED-UP instead. You know you are that 'older lady' when you fail to notice that your top is inside-out and that you have curly hairs on your hands :)  lyn67 on "The Fashion Confession Thread" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-fashion-confession-thread/page/2#post-1215729 Sun, 06 Apr 2014 21:01:10 +0000 lyn67 1215729@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ OMG, I laughed so much this evening!!! Thanx y'all!:-) I for myself, once got a  visit  to my company and wore black sheers, a pencil and pumps ALL DAY at work. As usual, in the evening I had to go with my guests  to show their accomodation without getting home in between. One of them was a very fashion conscious  lass and  a great  inspiration I was always motivated  to tally her, of course in a good way. She wanted to change  up for dinner and she invited me in her room for that time. By the time my feet were so tired, that I was immediatelly and  unconsciously getting off my shoes as stepping inside the hotel room, on the  soft carpet, for a bit of rest-but didn't look down-to see one of my  big toes  peaking out bare in a hole of my tights, which were completely new that morning. I cannot tell you how embarrassed  my inner self was,  but my gut saved me and managed to have  a good laugh on the thema together. Other one, was when leaving my attorney's office and he  just pointed out that my little size tag is out of my  blouse's (mandarin) collar on my nape... It was even worse that I didn't hear/understand him at first what he was trying to tell me  but figured out it has to be some cheery farewell thing as he was smiling, so I smiled, too-and went on further with my head high up attitude-probably leaving impression like this was my fashion wild card, or so!:-) I realised only home what he was saying:-).  And one equally so embarrassing was happenning to one of my (younger male) supervisors. I noticed the first thing when he came to my office that he was wearing his sweater completely inside out, but didn't want to rush on giving my unwanted opinions before beeing sure (nowadays, there  are so many fringe trends amoung the youngs I thought it surely has to be a new RATE thing going on, LOL). But then after having a few good stares, I saw the brand label and size tag out on his nape, so it was obviously rather the old fashion faux pas. He didn't stay much this time, and I was continuously brainstorming  on how should I tell him as I just wouldn't leave him going on his way like it was, so I gently pointed out about what I noticed and tried to humour a bit on that, saying "not that I think you've dressed in the dark, or so..." He got my sense of humour and said he actually dressed that morning in the dark, and we both had a good laugh on the thema. But wait, that's not the end! Bonus was, the strange stare of  somebody enterring to my office without a knock on and catching us laughing together and while him literally dressing up. He unfortunatelly took action and changed his sweater on the reverse quite there in my office before having time to protest or show him the restroom-oh well-at least he had a tee under it:-)).

I have 2: 1. A pencil skirt - one of my fave buys from a cute fast fashion store in my college town. I wore this skirt for the first time and felt super sexy. However, I felt a draft halfway through the day - realized that the skirt was slowly splitting/unraveling from the bottom up, and was split hallway up to my thigh. Hightailed it home to change. 2. When I was in high school, I would shower, leave the bathroom with my shirt on, and a thin towel wrapped around my waist. One day, I wore my skirt over the towel and failed to remove the towel. My friend (male) who walked with me to school every day, pointed out that something was hanging out under my skirt, again, hightailed it home :D Ria on "The Fashion Confession Thread" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-fashion-confession-thread/page/2#post-1215506 Sun, 06 Apr 2014 13:58:49 +0000 Ria 1215506@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Fashion confessions? I don't know if some of these count, but here's a list of them: <ul> <li>I often leave the house wearing my tops or cardigans inside out.</li> <li>I once left the house bra-less and didn't realize until I was at the train station! Luckily, I was wearing a really thick down jacket, so nobody noticed.</li> <li>I admit to wearing running shoes (New Balance) all the time. I wear them with jeans, skirts, stockings - everything except for suits, slacks, and formal dresses.</li> <li>Along with running shoes, the only socks I seem to have are sports socks. So I admit to wearing those all the time too.</li> <li>I always wear loose and baggy tops so that I can hide my belly fat. Given my hourglassy shape, I know that it only makes me look fatter than I really am, but at least the rolls and bumps are kept out of sight.</li> <li>My jeans don't fit me, yet I wear them anyway. Waist is 34" and I think my jeans shrunk to 32" as a result of putting them in the dryer for too long. So they dig into my stomach when I wear them, causing lumps and rolls - which is why I'm always wearing loose and baggy tops!</li> <li>Sometimes I accidentally wear sexy, lingerie-looking camisoles underneath kind-of-see-through tops and don't realize until people stare at me weirdly and I ask my friends...</li> </ul> Okay, done. *hides* Jewell on "The Fashion Confession Thread" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-fashion-confession-thread/page/2#post-1215472 Sun, 06 Apr 2014 13:04:39 +0000 Jewell 1215472@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ This thread is such a fun read! I've done the mismatched earrings thing plenty of times or left the house wearing only ONE because I was distracted while trying them on. I've also left home wearing the wrong colored hose or head band because I made my selection in the dark. But my most memorable mishap will always be when I got my first teaching job and went to our county office to have my employee ID made. I wore a powder blue linen jogging suit and white undies. After having my picture taken, I was standing in the lobby area waiting for my card. I turned to see a full length mirror on a wall behind me and was horrified to see my underwear as clear as anything through my pants. I couldn't get out of there fast enough. tam on "The Fashion Confession Thread" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-fashion-confession-thread/page/2#post-1215312 Sun, 06 Apr 2014 02:51:05 +0000 tam 1215312@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Mismatched shoes - check  Tags left on clothes when wearing - check  Vents unclipped - check  Dryer sheets hanging out of sleeves - check  Skirt in pantyhose - check  TP struck to shoe when existing restroom - check  White deodorant marks on t shirts - check  Yep, I've been guilty of all of the above - some several times!

I've forgotten to snip vent threads and stuff like that a lot. But my best entries for this thread both involve hose, oddly enough. First, I went out of town to a wedding and packed a lovely silk dress to wear. It was early fall, so I didn't think to try it on with tights, but threw a pair in the suitcase at the last minute in case it was chilly. It was, and it turned out that the dress had a huge static cling problem when worn with tights. Like, to the point that you could see the outline of everything. Luckily, there was time for an emergency trip to Target for a slip before the wedding. Bonus embarrassment points: While I was literally on my way to the Target ladies' room to put the slip on, a nice older lady came up to me and very softly and politely said that I might want to wear another layer under my dress. Second, I was going right from work to my husband's office holiday party a few years ago, so I was wearing something a little dressier than normal. I was going to just wear tights, but realized sheer black hose would look nicer. The only pair I could find without a run in it was still in its packaging and literally dated from college. (My mom used to buy me nice silky sheer hose whenever she found it cheap at places like Marshall's -- I think she thought my college social life was much fancier than it actually was.) They were apparently so old that they had no elasticity whatsoever. They started to slip by the time I was out the door, but I was running late, so I just gave them a tug. But there was no stopping them and they were literally around my knees by the time I'd walked to the Metro. So I ducked into the darkest alcove I could find to take them off, threw them out, and spent a cold December morning with freezing bare legs. I did manage to get a replacement pair of hose during lunch, though. So, basically, the lesson here is that I really should try on hose ahead of time along with the rest of the outfit when I need to get dressed up for something.

The backpack made the lining ( not the overlay) ride up and I did not notice. A lady stopped me midway, while walking to my destination, pale as a paper to tell me about it. Thank the lords I was wearing boy shorts, but still.

I went years without snipping the threads that held together the pleats of my big tweed winter coat, and just about a year forgetting to do my cream trench until a few days ago when my mom asked if that was "a style nowadays" Cutting out back pocket threads, security tags, all those things perpetually slip my mind.

That means during winter time, I leave in the dark. One day, while sitting in the train, I realized I was wearing a sweater inside out. I think this was a blessing in disguise. This incident, my dear YLF, is how I wound up on this lovely site, as on that day, I decided I need to have my wardrobe under control.

I had a rare occasion to wear a suit at work and put one on which I hadn't worn in two years. Towards the end on the day, I sat down and felt a draft on my left hip. I looked down and saw three large moth holes, one so big you could see my underwear. So embarrassed. I now store all my woolens in ziplock bags. dustt on "The Fashion Confession Thread" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-fashion-confession-thread/page/2#post-1214434 Fri, 04 Apr 2014 23:55:46 +0000 dustt 1214434@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ many years ago while HUGELY pregnant - my commute to work involved parking then walking 3 blocks and up a giant hill to my building.  well Maternity hose were notorious for falling down - my arms were full - I was 8 months pregnant and my pantyhose were quickly heading for my knees.  By the time I got into the building I was literally hobbled at the knees from pantyhose that were soon to be at my ankles.  There was no way I could make it to the ladies room. So in the vestibule of my very busy office building at a large university - I proceeded to yank my panty hose up - pregnant belly and all!! The only thing that kept it from being a total peep show was my huge oversized coat!!  Apparently I was the talk of the building for days.  My Baby shower gifts from my co-workers included a pair of pink suspenders!!!
