A new look- - Maybe

 

This is an image of my shirt botted up after a days wearing. Thought it might be useful

I'm always amazed when I wear something new or something different and people begin to notice and comment about how good I look in this new outfit. I think I've rattled on in the past how I think I don't really know how to dress. It's not a thing that I took two very well even though my dear old mother tried to dress me up as much as she could aside from their institutional regular Sunday dress for going to church. That was how I basically understood dressing. It's Autumn or near autumn it's the time when in the old days we would be getting our clothes out of layaway which we had put them on earlier in the year. That is how I grew up purchasing or getting new clothes. I always got clothes that were either basically school clothes very fundamental. Never Levi's brand name but the Sears knock off and often they were tanning color. I never got Converses unless of course I happen to just luck out our mother happened to luck out and found a pair of Converses at the local thrift store or at a garage sale. Didn't matter if if they fit or not if they were close to even getting on my feet I would wear them like I belong to them and not somebody else at some time and who knows for what reason they were discarded. Same way with shirts I never had those cool plaid shirts that bled when washed and made a great looking pattern and they had the fruit loops on the back. If my shirts had Fruit Loops they were long gone by the time I got the class it seemed like. I didn't get ridiculed or laughed at or anything like that and probably nobody even noticed except I noticed. Luckily I just sucked whatever was going on and went on with my life. Actually this didn't even matter in grade school. I didn't know what was going on. It was Junior High when things kicked into gear that I was somewhat different than most of my friends. I didn't look like them.

Sorry I should have got carried away there please forgive. Last year I purchased a couple of button-up shirts that were somewhat out of what I usually where. I was searching for something that would be wearable for social events. I really didn't have anything like that especially for summer wear. I don't know if there was something going on here at the apartment complex or something that I felt needed more than just the regular pull over t-shirt and or whatever pullover I was wearing I thought would work. I pulled a couple shirts off the rack at Walmart which I thought would fit me and have had them in their closet for some time. I started wearing this year for a couple of events and got actually good comments on all of them. Today when I'm at the kids for breakfast they were impressed with my shirt. I'm going to make an effort the next couple of months to try to purchase more pieces of clothing that I think might make me more look like the other kids …
