Are they what you mean? This is Easter Sunday. Our mom made our dresses, and it was very special that we were permitted to play on the swingset in our church clothes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-have-you-never-had-in-your-wardrobe/page/3#post-2288950 Sun, 30 Oct 2022 20:15:58 +0000 Bee 2288950@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Do cosmetics count? The only bright colored lipstick I’ve ever owned was a delicious looking shade of fuschia given to me by my mother when I was 3 or 4. I mostly chewed on it and it definitely didn’t taste as good as it looked. Nowadays I stick to pinkish nude shades since I’d rather not draw attention to my (lack of) lips. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-have-you-never-had-in-your-wardrobe/page/3#post-2288943 Sun, 30 Oct 2022 19:23:26 +0000 Sal 2288943@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It’s funny because the three things I mentioned I really like - loafers, white shirts and suits. Gorgeous classic pieces.</p> <p>With suits I used to own 3-5 at a time, I probably had 10 on total from 20-31, then I had children and changed industry so didn’t add any new ones.

(The stylish woman in the photo is my Aunt Mary who worked as a nurse in Boston. &nbsp;She was responsible for my one, and only - Barbie!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-have-you-never-had-in-your-wardrobe/page/3#post-2288816 Sat, 29 Oct 2022 19:08:23 +0000 MsMaven 2288816@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Buckle shoes. When I was a little girl there were basically 2 kinds of shoes for kids: oxfords and buckle shoes, the latter worn mostly on Sundays. I had rheumatic fever as a girl and the medical opinion at the time was that I could have weak ankles. So each year as Easter approached, I wanted buckle shoes, but had to settle for saddle shoes.</p> <p>Often the shoes had 2 sets of buckles. These shoes weren't quite the same as Mary Janes and weren't called that.&nbsp;</p> <p>Never had a pair of spike heels either. By time I was tall, I didn't want to be taller. 3" my limit.</p> <p>As an adult I have had many pairs of buckle sandals, but that 10-year old girl somewhere inside me still wishes she could have had a pair of white buckle shoes for spring.&nbsp;</p> <p>Wearing short dress and lace up shoes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-have-you-never-had-in-your-wardrobe/page/3#post-2288815 Sat, 29 Oct 2022 19:01:33 +0000 Jenn 2288815@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’ve never had a suit or a strapless top. I haven’t had a cold shoulder top either. Other than that, I can’t think of much. A fur coat, I guess, not even a faux one. OTK boots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-have-you-never-had-in-your-wardrobe/page/3#post-2288814 Sat, 29 Oct 2022 18:59:02 +0000 Echo 2288814@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ah, Western-inspired things are very much NOT my jam. I did try a pair of cowboy boots when I first met Dh, but that didn't last long, and as it stands, if a shoe or other items even slightly leans Western it is enough to put me off.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-have-you-never-had-in-your-wardrobe/page/3#post-2288802 Sat, 29 Oct 2022 15:55:31 +0000 cat2 2288802@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was going to respond but realized it was going to be a big list of trends I didn’t like, which would diss everyone who liked those trends.

I wonder the opposite. Some things I bought only once but enjoyed them. I remember I bought faux leather pants on my first trip abroad. I brought from Paris a pair beige snake pleather pants. &nbsp;Pants lasted only a couple of seasons but I adored them.&nbsp;<br /><div>I guess it means I was always into fashion and experimenting with it. Admittedly, some of my choices were very questionable &nbsp;</p> <p></div><div>I never had a track suit. I’m more into sportswear now and actually consider it.&nbsp;</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-have-you-never-had-in-your-wardrobe/page/3#post-2288769 Sat, 29 Oct 2022 12:27:11 +0000 Olive Green 2288769@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Let’s see, no thong underwear, no leather coat (cold and expensive), no distressed or skinny jeans, no walking on a platform shoe or boot since a sprained teenage ankle. No heels over 2 inches. Avoided formality in weddings, esp mine.&nbsp;<br />So, mostly pain avoidance as a fashion filter. Otherwise, all is fair game for a try out if it fits local conditions.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-have-you-never-had-in-your-wardrobe/page/3#post-2288764 Sat, 29 Oct 2022 11:25:36 +0000 Staysfit 2288764@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bodysuit, black trousers or jeans or tops, black coat or jacket, contact lenses, painter pants, overalls, full length ball gown, full length wedding dress, fur coat, mini skirt </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-have-you-never-had-in-your-wardrobe/page/3#post-2288759 Sat, 29 Oct 2022 09:16:36 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2288759@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Like Jenni, I see many things other people listed and realize I don’t have them either. My wardrobe is pretty basic in a lot of ways. I’m happy with that, because I lean much more to the “I woke like this” side than tryhard, really don’t like letting them see me sweat (metaphorically). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-have-you-never-had-in-your-wardrobe/page/3#post-2288734 Sat, 29 Oct 2022 02:59:43 +0000 Jenni NZ 2288734@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have heaps more Nevers after reading this.
