How do you pick out your clothes

Posted by JAGEORGALLIS on 11/20/2009 at 6:27 AM

Hey guys,
How do you choose clothes to wear? (whether it be buying them in a shop or just picking them out in the morning?). Do you have problems choosing clothes, and if so have you found a solution to overcome these issues?

Re:How do you pick out your clothes

Hi: I always take someone with me when I go clothing shopping. (I'm always in the dressing room) And in the mornings, I have a simple system. I where a lot of skirts and dresses; hence on days I wear dresses I don't ha ve to worry about not matching. OI have also learned to memorise the colors and textures of certain articles of clothing; and kind of know what goes and doesn't go together. Sometimes, particularly when I get a new article of clothing, I will come out of my bedroom or the bathroom not matching. My mother has to tell me about this; since I have absolutely no vission. Actually, it's kind of amusing!

Thanks everybody for replying to my messages.

Do you use things like braille tags and stitching systems or do you have a way of feeling what certain patterns are on clothes?

Also, do you have favorite articles of clothing and what makes them special?

Re:How do you pick out your clothes

Omg! Never use those metal braille tags, they I-T-C-H!!!!!!!!!!!!! Use contact paper on the sewn in tag of your clothing if you need color labels. I just memorise thikngs; so I might not be the best person to talk to about that. I can tell what stripes and pulka dots feel like; but even by material I can tell what articles they are. As far as favorites go (and I can't talk about all of them), I have one skirt (That my mother hates) that is very busy. It is filled with brown colors, and pinks, and ............... I also have one particular black velvit outfit, that might be my saving grace, during the winter! The skirt almost com,es to my ankels. Taking a break from homework, I'll have to continue this discussion later
