fashion police

okay, let me start this post by pointing out that i am ceratinly not bastion high fashion. i do not wear interesting, exciting, or perhaps even flattering clothes.

i am a fairly plain/boring dresser. i in fact often think how great it would be to have a fabulous wardrobe and wear clothes that look great, elegant, funky, hip, basically any kind of descriptor that would denote something interesting.

instead i am a boring dresser. i don't look particularily bad and i don't look pariticularily good. i'm pretty average in the way i dress.

okay, so, that little disclamer finished i will get on with my post.

yesterday i had a meeting, in this meeting there were people, some of the people were women, one of the women was in her late 40s, this post is about her.

this woman was wearing... wait for it... a little sailor top.

yes, you read that correctly. the kind of sailor top you see people putting on their babies. the kind of shirt you see in this random picture i found in google images (yes people, i care enough about you to do the research!)

the shirt was old, previously white, but now a kind of dingy light grey, thin material, and had a blue and white stripped 'sweat shirt type' cuff around the waist.

this is what this grown woman wore to work.

this woman who in other ways is nice, competent, smart, interesting, you get the picture.

so, why the shirt that even i, with my lack of fashion sense, wouldn't be caught dead in?
