Calling All Fashion Experts
Question: If the person who lampooned your attire and another blogger's sweater finds it acceptable to wear the shirt pictured below (along with jeans and shower shoes) to a lounge on a Friday night, is it possible that the individual never had keen fashion evaluation skills in the first place? You decide.
Note: I was wearing this and a cotton version of this, and the "fashion critic" in question said I was again dressed like senior citizen on a golf tour!

If by "Lounge" you mean "hole in the wall shithole where some drunk bitch spilled her beer on my Cat in the Hat shirt 5 minutes before you walked in" then, okay.
"hole in the wall shithole" is redundant. I get it. Don't make fun.
lol@ velvet's comments....
Velvet & Velvet-- You picked that sleazy hipster pit... I'd certainly never heard of it or been there before last Friay. AND, how many other "Cat in the Hat" shirts did you see floating around there? I think you were the lonely cheese in that shirt!
DCSavvyStar-- grrrrrrr.
Aren't you like 42?
I wish I had a Cat in the Hat t-shirt...
1. There's nothing wrong with the jeans. I have Diesel jeans too, and I'm pretty sure I was wearing them on friday.
2. But who spends $250 on a polo shirt? Jus' sayin. It's not an old man shirt or anything, but I wouldn't buy that even if you knocked one of the zeros off. No offense.
3. If I had to choose between wearing that shirt and a Cat in the Hat Shirt and Flip Flops, then I'd go with that shirt too.
4. who wears shower shoes to any kind of bar (dive or otherwise)? Even if you're worried about skanks stepping on your nice shoes, you should be even more worried about exposing your feet to that disgusting floor. As proof of how wrong it is to wear flip flops out: Dirty Dave wore them to Tony & Joes on Friday.
Rob-- Suck it. You know my age, and it begins with a "2".
E-- Stop taking her side, people! Ugh. I'm sure she'd give you the shirt if you asked. Just ask her, she'll give it to you.
Ninja-- 1. We are in solidarity with the jeans.
2. I did NOT pay $250 for that shirt. Are you crazy??? That -- the link to the $250.00 shirt -- was the only photo I could find of a similar shirt. I bought that shirt more than two years ago, and I don't remember how much I paid for it, but you can be sure it was less than $100.00.
3. Yes, yes, yes!!!
4. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes!!! Who wears shower shoes anywhere except for the shower? Some creep could have stepped on her toes -- and gotten who knows the-hell-what all over them.
Wait a minute...who wears shower shoes in their own shower?
I like the shirt! :)
Where can I get one?
Beth-- People who live in dorms, military barracks or who use public showers by the beach probably wear shower shoes to the shower. I'm sure there are some OCD folks out there who do it to.
Anon-- I'd like to think you are referring to my amazing shirt. But considering the tone this comment thread is taking, I can only assume you mean the "Cat in the Hat" shirt. I'm pretty sure you can find a "Cat in the hat" shirt at Babies R Us or at any flea market.
They were similar to these shoes but with a more substantial bottom:

I told you, I'm not trying anymore. And of course, E:) can have my Cat in the Hat shirt. I'll wash the beer off. I get to keep the Grinch though.
I think Rob was talking to me, wasn't he? Possibly a joke about how everytime "someone" speaks of my "age" I gets older and older and older. I age 4 years everytime "someone" mentions it.
And YOUR age Circ does NOT begin with a 2.
For the record, I was NOT supposed to end up at that bar. My goal was "one drink" and I'm out. But when I saw what was happening (poor kid) I had to accompany him to the next place to make sure he didn't get hurt.
Ninja - after the conversational ringer you put me through last night, you should just keep your peep shut over there.
YAY, my ID is back!
Ok. That link got cut off. Anyway, they are speedo flip flops! Not shower shoes.
Velvet-- My age DOES begin with a "2" and I will GLADLY show you a driver's license and birth certificate to prove it. Just because YOU age five years every blog week, it doesn't mean I do.
Not trying? We were at a straight bar/dive/lounge/ballroom. Who did I have to impress?
You leave Ninja alone. You're clearly in the wrong here.
circ, she is wrong, but she's got kryptonite on me. I'm retreating to a neutral corner.
And I feel sorry for that kid too. I think he was traumatized by that evening. I mean, he left with all his fingers and toes, but he's definitely got some material for his therapist now.
hmm...I seemed to get in on this one a little late but I wouldn't wear a cat in the hat shirt...and I am the least fashionable person ever. My husband just shakes his head in shame as I throw on my Lynryd Skynyrd shirt to go over to the neighbor's house:)
I may go for redneck bands but I stay away from cartoons....
AND I am a fan of shithole bars but I never EVER would wear open toed shoes...you will catch hepatitus or something:)
Ninja-- What does she have on you? The truth will set you free.
Regarding the kid: I just wanted to take him under my wing and feed him a bowl of warm oatmeal. I think he was still had braces.
Emily-- What are you talking about? This party NEVER ends!! Speaking of old, ratty vintage t-shirts... I was flipping through shirts at Nordstrom recently and couldn't believe what they're selling now -- old (or fake aged/vintage) Florida State and University of Florida shirts. Can you believe?
Shithole bars are the best... no argument from me there. This particular shithole bar, as a matter of fact, presented on of the most fun nights I've had in years.
WAIT JUST ONE MINUTE!
Are you talking about MY KID? F OFF ALL OF YOU! Do you KNOW how long it's been since I got laid?
And And And....you know how I feel about flip flops....ugh...velvie.
My fav bar in both Nasvhille and Savannah smells like vomit and the bathroom is so nasty you almost would rather go outside...but I love them:) haha...
We celebrated Christmas Eve at the bar in Savannah this past year and it was a blast:)
BBTY-- Well, we didn't want to out you, but since you self-identified... The kid was just so poorly matched against your womanly powers. It was like watching a minnow fend off a big, hungry shark!
Emily-- The bathrooms at this particular bar smelled like urine and Harvard cast-offs.
Actually I know for a fact that Cir is pushing 43. The only things that contains a 2 in his house is the old Safeway birthday candle he saves from when he turned 42.
Also, regarding Velvet's age, I read on the blogs that she is closer to her late 40s than early 40s. True story.
Ninja has been effectively silenced. Now, I'll move to you other two.
And yet, BBTY, somehow the same military pants over and over and over are acceptable? I told you I was in my pajamas, and you MADE ME COME OUT to hold your hand while you entertained, wait for it, both your ex-boyfriend and your new boyfriend AT THE SAME TIME. What did you need me for?
Circ, are you going to show me YOUR license or one of Zsa Zsa's versions?
Rob, that could only have come from the Empire of Lies. Irony being that the insult slinger in questions seems to think that if he ages me by 10 years everytime he breathes my name that I'm somehow, hurt by this. Again, flashback: HE wanted the LOVIN from ME. Not the other way around. Unlike BBTY, I don't mess with kids who fumble around for bra straps in the bedroom.
Rob-- You're going to be pushing daisies if you don't knock it off.
Velvet-- I will show you one of my real licenses and/or passport and/or birth certificate. I won't start lying about my age until the end of this year.
Kiss it Velvie. You know those pants are the only ones that fit my skinny ass...but we have new ones now!
HE IS NOT MY NEW BF. He won't even kiss me.
LAND SHARK. CANDY GRAM. FLOWERS!
BBTY I have clothes from my childhood Barbies if you want! Oh wait, no I don't. I never had Barbies. Forget it!
And, gee, I wonder WHY he won't kiss you. Could it have something to do with collecting a phone number from someone else while on a date with him? Poor kid. He's better off running for his life before you eat him. I don't mean "eat" in the good way either.
Whatever happened to a nice pair of Sansabelt slacks?
Velvet-- You never had Barbie dolls? Well, I know for a fact that you DID own a Cabbage Patch kid or two!
Phil-- I gave all of my Sansabelt slacks away when I upgraded to Haggar trousers.
circ, i'm mad you had to go and call her ass out. she needed it though. i was trying to be polite at the time, but you're so right. shithole or not, velvet, there's no excuse. we know where ninja was coming from and sure his shirt was buttoned funky but at least it had buttons.
and to bbty - i was really hoping you had just fucked the living daylights out of him. really. he needed it. what with his sports jersey. oh that reminds me, velvet, pick on him. leave circ alone.
Good move, Circ.
I'm glad you are doing so well for yourself.
Hmm. By process of elimination, "Misty Ann" could really only be the Rainbow sweatshirt / twat t-shirt wearing member of this group...
But, misty ann? Really?
"and to bbty - i was really hoping you had just fucked the living daylights out of him."
Someday and soon if I have my say....I need it too. I need it THAT bad...sports jersey or NOT!
Associated Press (AP): Dateline, Washington DC.
Officials at the National Zoo are vigorously denying that any animals in their care have escaped. Over the weekend, DC Police received several calls about a Cougar that was sighted in the Dupont Circle and Columbia Heights neighborhoods.
Prominent Italian zoologist Signor Botti warned residents to stay indoors until the Cougar is apprehended because Cougars can be especially aggressive during mating season.
Misty Ann-- Thanks! And thanks! After all, a spade is a spade is a spade.
Phil-- Thanks! And thanks! I count on your support of my pants.
Velvet-- Misty Ann's shirt said "Hot piece of twat" Not just "twat."
BBTY-- How is it that w woman so hot goes without it for so long?
Ninja-- The streets will never again be safe.
Ninja:
I am more dangerous than a cougar. A shark, a vampire, a cheetah...maybe. But a Cougar is just a big "pussy" cat. I am dan-aaan-aaan-gerous!
Circ, I can imagine that shirt (not the Cat in the Hat one...lol) on you, and it would look pretty hot!
