yay or nay? my boss does it. this week it's a shocking pink dress with matching shoes and cardie.

Nay! Punch your boss.

(I will wear the same thing two days in a row, but I work by myself.)

Is said boss's outfit *washed* between wearings?

Because if not, then EEEEUUUUUUWWWWW!

Classic if when she leaves for the day, she takes off the dress and hangs it on a hook on her office door and commutes home nude.

― n/a (Nick A.), Tuesday, 28 June 2005 16:19 (twenty years ago)

that would be classic, yes.
and gross
(you haven't seen my boss)

I'm really hoping that dahlin's boss is a big hairy rugby player.

I used to have a boss who did this. She would buy about 10 pieces of designer gear a year and wear her same pair of jeans all week with the same nice black top, but obviously change the underwear and shower daily. She was not a stinky girl by any means. Jealous people at work would comment on it, though.

― suzy (suzy), Tuesday, 28 June 2005 16:29 (twenty years ago)

no, but she's from sunderland

― dahlin (dahlin), Tuesday, 28 June 2005 16:36 (twenty years ago)

Close enough.

― C J (C J), Tuesday, 28 June 2005 16:38 (twenty years ago)

(...for rock'n'roll)

The thing is, I've never done this but wearing the same outfit every day is conceivably ok as long as you shower, change underwear, etc, as long as it is an outfit such as suzy describes. Something stylish yet kind of non-descript; you could theoretically just have 7 versions of that outfit. But no one has 7 versions of a shocking pink suit, this is ludicrious.

exactly

like, er, a suit.

all suit-wearing men to thread, please.

oh, hang on. this is ILX. fuck.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Tuesday, 28 June 2005 17:21 (twenty years ago)

roffles

Yeah basically I was thinking suits or basic jeans + tops outfits.

― Allyzay knows a little German (allyzay), Tuesday, 28 June 2005 17:22 (twenty years ago)

yeah, you scared me with your suit

― dahlin (dahlin), Tuesday, 28 June 2005 17:29 (twenty years ago)

i've been wearing the same brown pants to work for about two weeks. yes, i'm bragging.

I think Grimly was the smartest man ever to attend a Glasgow FAP, facial hair notwithstanding.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Tuesday, 28 June 2005 18:12 (twenty years ago)

indeed. and he was clever too

― dahlin (dahlin), Tuesday, 28 June 2005 18:17 (twenty years ago)

Haha, in competition with a bloke in a Cure t-shirt, a bloke in a Secretly Canadian t-shirt and a bloke in a Pipas t-shirt!

A guy in my Russian 101 class wore the same outfit for a week during the week we were learning and practicing descriptions of clothing (just because he was lazy). It was really funny.

― Maria (Maria), Tuesday, 28 June 2005 18:25 (twenty years ago)

(not that you weren't smart anyway, grimly, you understand)

― ailsa (ailsa), Tuesday, 28 June 2005 18:28 (twenty years ago)

he's not talkin to me no mo'

― dahlin (dahlin), Tuesday, 28 June 2005 18:45 (twenty years ago)

ooer ... sorry, no, busy, that's all.

yeah, you scared me with your suit

if you think that's scary, wait till you see the pinstripe linen one that's getting an airing tomorrow. o yes.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Tuesday, 28 June 2005 18:52 (twenty years ago)

i shall try to keep it clean/soup-free enough for NedFap (TM), although given that i'm about to embark on a four-day beerathon (evenings only: days reserved for hangovers) there's a very good chance it'll have developed some interesting and unusual stains by then.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Tuesday, 28 June 2005 18:53 (twenty years ago)

still. a good stain is always an icebreaker.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Tuesday, 28 June 2005 18:53 (twenty years ago)

linen? oh my!
is it black? do you wear anything other than black? i can't imagine it

― dahlin (dahlin), Tuesday, 28 June 2005 18:55 (twenty years ago)

grimly the smartest man etc etc

wait till you see him in his skipped bunnet, o yes

xpost: I've seen him in a grey T-shirt once. I nearly died.

― stet (stet), Tuesday, 28 June 2005 18:56 (twenty years ago)

of ecstasy? of embarassment?

― dahlin (dahlin), Tuesday, 28 June 2005 18:57 (twenty years ago)

wait till you see him in his skipped bunnet, o yes

that was an experiment. one that will probably not be repeated. and anyway, like i said: i couldn't take it off because my hair had gone funny underneath.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Tuesday, 28 June 2005 18:59 (twenty years ago)

dahlin: of shock.

― stet (stet), Tuesday, 28 June 2005 19:10 (twenty years ago)

I wear a white shirt and dark trousers every day. They're always clean, but does that count?

― stet (stet), Tuesday, 28 June 2005 19:16 (twenty years ago)

are you a waiter?

― Another Allnighter (sexyDancer), Tuesday, 28 June 2005 19:22 (twenty years ago)

are you sexy?

― dahlin (dahlin), Tuesday, 28 June 2005 19:23 (twenty years ago)

You could say I wait on old men to fill plates, but that's horridly newspaper in-jokey, so don't. Sexy? Ahem. Come to nedfap and see! Though my heart is Madchen's (she had an Acorn Electron, *sigh*)

― stet (stet), Tuesday, 28 June 2005 21:10 (twenty years ago)

ooooh potential nedfap action! nice
yes, madchen is hot to trot...

― dahlin (dahlin), Wednesday, 29 June 2005 10:19 (twenty years ago)

update: today bossie lady is wearing a different outfit! it's a hott stripey top with a scandalous white half-shirt tied at the bosum. so it was only four days in a row, not five. i don't want to defame her or anything.
