Having spent a lifetime collecting cool vintage or new but unusual (perhaps odd) apparel I have multiple opportunities to dress inappropriately where-ever I go. Only last night I was critiqued for wearing stockings on a summer night. They were sheer and navy like my purse, shoes, blouse and the embroidery on my dress. I thought I matched. The complaint was that I wasn't sufficiently exposed and appeared (G-d forbid :) ) religious (apparently a sin in the eyes of the critic). This is funny in part because the complainant wraps phylactories (tefillin) and prays daily but wants to see more exposed flesh than my skinny body finds comfortable and because I've often come under fire for the exact opposite offense. So lets make a party and I assure you I will be inappropriately dressed whatever the occasion. <br />Sari Simonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6474792771561163449.post-42913811734717614572014-06-22T14:08:57.457-07:002014-06-22T14:08:57.457-07:00;-);-)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13257544024466594087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6474792771561163449.post-7721043315359498302014-06-22T11:42:32.976-07:002014-06-22T11:42:32.976-07:00Me - I'm going over to Tommy's to do homew...Me - I'm going over to Tommy's to do homework. Mom - On a Saturday? Me - We have a project we're working on. Mom - Well okay but I know you two can't be doing homework on a Saturday. Remember what happened the last time you and Tommy got yourself all done up and went to Morris's department store? Ole Mrs. Web is still talking about how you nearly scared the life out of her in those get ups. She thought you were her relatives from Pennsylvania and I really don't think you should be pretending to be Amish like that. It's disrespectful and there may be some sort of law against that. Me - Oh Mom. Tommy and I just do stuff to have fun. Nobody cares. Mom - It's not Halloween every day you know. Me - Yeah, well why not? Mom - Oh get out of here. You're going to do what you want to anyway but don't stay in his room all day playing dress up. Ride your bikes. Get out and get some exercise. Just don't go riding around town like some Oliver Twist characters.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10653089635133637040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6474792771561163449.post-89822439762125213602014-06-21T22:59:21.040-07:002014-06-21T22:59:21.040-07:00Nice!Nice!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13257544024466594087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6474792771561163449.post-11388884631637132312014-06-21T21:13:55.519-07:002014-06-21T21:13:55.519-07:00My cat was quite frightened by this post, but has ...My cat was quite frightened by this post, but has taken to wearing a top hat and has procured a monocle, so I have nothing to complain about.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
