I don't know if I would dare to go shopping like that, but looks like these people sure have a lot of fun!

okaaaayy..... Not exactly what I would do for free clothes, but the younguns sure seem to like it!

lol, I should clarify - of course I thought in terms if I was young again, maybe I would go for it.
probably not as I was insecure about my body.

Now- gosh never!,
I wouldn't want to scare shoppers away!!

Yeah, besides having fun, and some maybe hoping to be discovered as a model, I think for many if them
it's an opportunity to get clothes otherwise they can't afford.

Risa

I had friends who would do this. Me, no chance. I wouldn't want to deny fun to folks who enjoy this sort of thing. I never was one for being involved in a group event - unless I was blind drunk. But the booze got me into plenty of trouble so I had to stop it. Anyway, it looked like a good time was had by all.

And you, Crt, like to wear men's jeans only anyway, if I remember correctly, no ?

Risa

Yes. They fit me better than women's jeans. Obviously I'm not fashionable, but I look OK. I like t-shirts, cotton and wool sweaters, blazers, rayon shirts, skirts and dresses, scarves of all kinds. Overall I like cotton, wool, silk, linen, leather. The only synthetic I like is rayon.

Chris

I wish I could get you in my hands, I would make you into comfy sexy hot babe !
not that you aren't, I am sure you are, but you'd be even hotter than ever!

re: rayon - synthetic? I thought it's natural as it's made from wood. bah humbug.
I love it, too, anyway :]

Risa

Risa,

We're both semi-correct on the rayon. It does start out as cellulose, but then it goes through quite a bit of chemical processing. So it isn't a true synthetic or a true natural fiber. It's something in between, a semi-synthetic. Anyway, to me it feels like a natural fiber and is especially comfortable in hot climates. And I love the way it takes color and the way it drapes.

In fact, I think a rayon dress of the right style, color, pattern looks good on any woman, regardless of shape, size, or age.

As for doing anything with me, yes, I believe you could make considerable improvements on how I look. I think you have a gift for it. If I have a big, important event I need to go to, I will ask you for help. I am usually at at a loss for what to do on those occasions.

Cheers,

Chris

aww, thank you sweetie for the compliment
and the explanation.

and don't you also love the sequined dresses, vintage?
