It's all about the look- Friday Five


In readiness for my move in 6 weeks time I spent almost all of yesterday morning sorting through my wardrobe ( closet, I am so British :-) marvelling at how I had accumulated so much stuff! The result is three large sacks full of clothes to be given away. Some came into the category of " what was I thinking", some too big now ( at last), and others I will never shrink into again. Some are going simply because I want to streamline my wardrobe.

So how about you:




1. Are you a hoarder, or are you good at sorting and clearing?

2. What is the oddest garment you possess and why?

3. Do you have a favourite look/ colour?

4. Thrift/ Charity shops, love them or hate them?

5. Money is no object, what one item would you buy?

Great one Sally, and right on target for me as I hope to move about the same time for a college teaching position. Prayers for the campus interview, please, everyone!

I played here

Sue said...

I should be writing my sermon, but instead I checked out my closet contents over here.

Sue said...

I just realized that I answered question #2 incorrectly and it's hilarious. I thought the question was "What is the OLDEST item?", not the ODDEST. I might change my answer, I might not. I'll think on it.

Now I'm just chuckling.

I came up from sermon prep to make my contribution here. Now back to work.

accidentalseminarian said...

I made the same mistake a Sue and read 'oldest' instead of oddest. There may be a few more of us before the day is out!

DogBlogger said...

I haven't had the chance to play in weeks, so I'm delighted to share my link!

Presbyterian Gal said...

Not having a public blog right now due to family stuff, I have to comment on this one. "Stuff" is my unwitting middle name.....

1. Of course I'm not a hoarder. Until I have to move and need a shovel to empty my closets and drawers.

2. Oddest garment: netted bug suit that elicits howls of laughter from those who see it.

3. Look: jeans and t-shirt/colour: right now, the slimming black.

4. Thrift/Charity shops: can't do them. Not that I don't want to. It's a vibe thing. Though there are some really killer clothes in those places.

5. Money no object: A custom made suit with pants and skirt.

Towanda said...

My odd garment is not really that odd, I think.

Tiffany said...
