Here is what your clothes are saying to everyone that sees you –
If you are wearing sweats or PJs outside…
People will know you feel like shit. You probably woke up with a headache and cramps and everyone knows that you simply couldn't be bothered with real pants so they should just keep quiet and be happy you haven't yelled at them yet.
If you are wearing a "sporty" baseball cap…
People will know it's not because you're a fan of the "team". If you are a guy you are probably balding or bald and if you are a woman you simply couldn't be bothered to put a comb through your hair or haven't washed it in days. Hat hair is the nicest way of saying, "believe me, you don't want to see this mess".
If you have on yoga pants every day all day…
People will know that you have not in fact come from 2 hours of intense hot yoga. They will know that you are carrying an extra 10 lbs that crept up on you disguised in an extra cookie after supper or a bag of chips at lunch. They will know you can no longer fit into your jeans. Wake up…the yoga pants aren't camouflaging those extra pounds. They are wrapping them in tight Lululemon for everyone to see.
If you are wearing hipster "nerd" glasses…
People will know that you probably prefer Indie bands to mainstream, you live by the 3 R's (reduce, reuse, recycle) and shop exclusively at Etsy or earth conscious companies.
If you are wearing a dress from the 1950's…
People will know that you more than a bit nostalgic, are obsessed with Mad Men and searching out the best vintage shops in town. They will also know that you pay good $ to dress like your Grandma.
If you are wearing the latest greatest items from JCrew…
People will know that you consider yourself an upwardly mobile so-and-so and that you expect to be treated with respect and everything else that goes along with $30 cocktails and $275 polka dot cotton trousers.
If you are wearing a jumpsuit/romper.
People will know that you couldn't be bothered to find a top and a bottom that go together so you just put on a onesie instead.

Hahaha this made me laugh a lot! I think my favorite was the nerd glasses – I see a lot of that on the college campus that I work on. You look amazing in this jumpsuit – I don’t think I could pull it off but you look awesome!
Bobbie says
you are so right, on every single one! I love this “clothes talk!” and by the way…. the jumper says I have my finger on the pulse. I know what is going on and I am in on it!

This post is so cute! And I adore you in that jumpsuit. I always love a good jumpsuit – but I tend to forget the part about having to totally undress when you need to use the restroom. When you are out and about – it can get awkward. But not awkward enough that I will stop wearing them. 😉
I think my outfit today, said that I was feeling flirty and a little adventurous. I’m wearing a blk/white printed skirt, super soft light greyish/blue raglan tee, tan ankle wedge boots, and a green cargo jacket.

Great post! Clothes talk, that’s why it’s called a fashion statement!
You look stunning! What a beautiful jumpsuit! Love the colour and your accessories.

Heehee! I love this post. What I hope my clothes always say about me is that I’m not interested in arbitrary trends and fashion rules, but I sure have fun getting dressed!
Val Sparkle says
This is so true, and so funny! Of course, sometimes with younger people wearing their pj bottoms and sloppy hair I think they think, I’m so cute I don’t have to try any harder than this.
Your outfit looks great – love the belt and shoes!

Thanks Olga : )

Thanks for popping by Sheila : )
Suzanne says
Oh my! I hope it went well : )
Suzanne says
That outfit sounds perfect.
I totally wrote about the whole bathroom situation the first time I wore this jumpsuit. Utterly impractical to have to get naked every time you need to pee. Wearing this is like wearing comfy PJs out and about so although I’m conflicted about the bathroom bit the comfort is winning me over.
Suzanne says
So true about the fashion statement : )
Have a great vacation!
Suzanne says
I would fully agree with that statement : )
Suzanne says
So true! I never thought about it like that but you are right! LOL You can tell I don’t have kids.
Suzanne says
Couldn’t have said it better myself. That is exactly the vibe I get when I see photos of you.
