leg warmers.
(Even when my husband insists on calling me Cindi Lauper.)
What do you refuse to stop wearing?
Clogs.
Old skool Scandinavian clogs. Wood and leather. No new-fangled light-weight materials.
My black Chuck Taylor's - my husband hates them - says they are not feminine -and they aren't but I have always loved them and will continue to buy them as long as they make them...picture me in my wheel chair at the old folks home....my lap quilt...no teeth - but by golly there WILL be Chuck Taylor's on my feet.

I haven't had a pair of them since the 80's. Never did wear them much....
I can't think of anything I refuse to give up except thermal holy socks, and maybe my tee that has some very unwanted hand gestures on it. I used to wear it to work in the cafe...lol, the fingers were hid under my apron. When one of the old men would piss me off, I'd call his name and fold my apron down and let him see my shirt...lol Of course, they thought I didn't mean it.... :wink:
Bib Overalls. I keep BOTH straps up because I CAN.

I'm just about ready to take some plain and some stripe-y ones to Goodwill. Check out the one on Overlea in a couple of weeks if you need more
I like this thread as an idea.
OK, there's my best rebozo, which I still have from 5 - 10 visits to Mexico in years gone by.
More recently, my seeming elastic jean tights. Surely horrid on me, but I like them.
Then there's the caftan, subject of another thread. Freaked littleK, but those were the thing back in the late 40's at the palazzos...... she says, sardonically.

White underwear. None of this coloured stuff for me.
My ex had the original primeval leather jacket...
Might have been part of the attraction.
That one should have been encased.
The ex, or the jacket....???
He's ok, stacked grrrrrs aside, I meant the jacket.
I haven't changed my hair style in nigh on fifty years, but I've lost a number of barrettes.

That reminded me noddy, I haven't changed my hair style either.
my home made cut off shorts.
Once summer hits, I sit down with a pair of scissors and I make a new pair of cut offs from one pair of jeans.
I dont fold the bottom... I just let it fray
Love em!
Screw what anyone else says..
