I wouldn't have her any other way!


I think it doesn't matter, as long as it is truely who you are...

(on a side note...she is also always dating very attractive men!!
)
I have to say, my husband isn't bad lookin

Dixie I have a Bart shirt that says "I have issues".
I seen one that said "Issues? You bet your sweet *** I have issues"

Seriously though, you look great!!

My closet has jeans, t-shirts, sweatshirts, a few dressy sweaters...and maybe 2-3 pair of dress pants I can fit in to. Dresses come out when there is a wedding or funeral (and they are from a few years ago). My make-up consists of eyeliner and that's it. My feet scream at me if they are in heels for more than 1 hr. And the last time I even paid attention to my nails is the day before my wedding (2 yrs ago). If I had hair I had to spend 1/2 hour on before I could leave the house, I would shave my head. Seriously!

I wouldn't worry about it. Be YOU! That is who you are comfortable with so don't worry about what anyone else says.

And, honestly....you look awesome in that pic! My husband would be drooling...hence why I won't show him this thread!

Ponytails yep thats how my hair is now 99% of the time. The 1% is where I just pull the sides up in a barett (is that spelled right :shrugs
. Up until about a month ago I did not have bangs. I let it all grow out so I could put all of it in a ponytail. But once I lost the weight I thought I would be nice to hubby and when I got my hair cut I let them cut bangs. But boy do I hate them. I hate having to do something with them everyday.

My hair is all one length for that reason.. I want to be able to just pull it back and go... Don't want to have to play with it for 45 mins in the mornings

I have bangs but the most I do with them is let them lay flat and straight. And even if I do put my hair up it doesn't take long to do. But on occasion I like to have someone french braid my hair and sometimes I will have them part it and braid it in two different braids but that's so it looks good with my jeans and my tshirts and boots.

But this pic is the dressiest you will see me unless I am in church.

My cousin came to mind when reading this thread for some reason, and when I read your post, you described her to a T! I think she'd prefer to go back to those days too.

I feel like I go through spells where I want to be girly and spells where I want to just be comfortable and not worry about my clothing and hair and all that stuff. I used to have to have on at least mascara and eye liner to leave the house. Since my eye thing this summer I only wear it if I need to. I just want to be comfortable in my own skin. I think that matters most!

I still wear makeup and am REALLY vain about my hair but I really don't care much about my clothes, as long as they're clean

I don't dress up a lot. I mainly wear shorts or jeans and t-shirts.

This is about as dressed up as I get. I was wearing a tank top and a skirt but it was cold out so I had a sweater over it when we were outside. I just cut myself out of the picture here because there was a bunch of people in it. No, thats not me smoking..its the guy beside me.


This is probably the most dressed up I have ever been..my prom.


This is like what I normally wear.

I'm sorry, I couldn't resist; you just look like you're miserable in this picture.

For the most part, I guess I'm more of a tomboy girl too - don't like dresses, makeup, etc. However on special occasions, I do like "dressing up" for hubby.

He's happy with me and know he feels special whether I'm dressed up or not.

I think when you get older and married, you will change a little and like to dress up once in awhile.

After all, remember men are visual creatures - you need to show off sometimes

I wear alot of the vintage concert shirts that came out last year. I have AC/DC, Lynard Skynard, Poision and shirts like that.
I also have alot of the shirts that have funny sayings on them. Like I have one that says "Im not in a mad mood, I just don't like you"...


I don't wear sandles, or open back shirts. I wear blue jeans all the time. I think I own maybe 2 pairs of pants that aren't jeans.... One pair is a pair of pink camo capris and the other are black with drawstrings on the legs... can't explain them.

I wear tennis shoes and hiking boots alot.

I have never felt comfortable in a dress/skirt or even shorts. I ran track all through high school and have very muscular legs that aren't "feminine" to me.

This is a typical outfit for me

Or even this


This has got me all self concious now


Anyone else out there like this?


are you kiddin? thats ME to a T,lol. Im ALWAYS in tees and jeans, and am a big NASCAR and BASEBALL fan, and can work on my own car. Tho i know guys love a girl can do all that,lol. I clean up well too,hehe

If that's what your comfortable in, then that's what you should wear. I dress fairly girly, but I definetely have the tom boy attitude.
