My dictionary told me it's a British expression ;) or pajamas in public is just horrible to look at. Also hanging breasts without bras - aside from the look, I don't understand how someone could stand it, with cup B or bigger it's more like... ache, not freedom?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08225805448307393514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6613414514492204167.post-58508655203140785852011-02-11T10:18:55.540-08:002011-02-11T10:18:55.540-08:00You're certainly right.

I highly doubt those who choose to look shabby in public are seeking out fashion blogs, let alone vintage fashion blogs. <br />People, as a broad general, have a dreadful lack of social and envrionmental consciousness. Part of it is our go go go pace. Part of it is sheer numbers. Part of it is a heavy dose of distrust in our fellow man. A lot of it is the self indulgent, instantaneous, self gratification, entitlement mentality so many have.<br />I feel for the women who are naturally heavily endowed. Some women I've seen, it makes my back hurt just looking at them. I imagine it's uncomfortable no matter what you do. <br />Trixie, I think people are less judging towards people who obviously just got done with a workout and popped into the grocer in the way home. A lot of gyms around here are actually located very close to grocers.Courtneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17627486842394330335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6613414514492204167.post-85071020194768968072011-02-10T15:22:36.069-08:002011-02-10T15:22:36.069-08:00Hey Courtney!

Like you said, the people going out in their pjs don't care what other people think of them. So why would they care so much that some vintage fashion blogger doesn't approve? I highly doubt anyone that wears pajamas regularly to go out reads vintage fashion blogs anyway. <3Laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12566074863466394617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6613414514492204167.post-40896870946910030132011-02-10T15:05:52.704-08:002011-02-10T15:05:52.704-08:00I liked reading this little history lesson in cors...I liked reading this little history lesson in corsets and bras! Pretty interesting take on it also! Comparisons of photos of women before vs. women now (especially ones like the gal in the pink shirt) I find absolutely fascinating. <br /><br />Unfortunately, I think most of the people who took issue with her post were more upset by her judgmental, elitist tone than her actual point. Plus it's easy to just generalize that people are lazy because they dress sloppy on one particular day that you see them. <br /><br />I was actually laughing about that today because I went to spin class and then ran to the grocery store in my spin clothes rather than go home to shower first!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6613414514492204167.post-7710881036195451172011-02-09T23:27:08.789-08:002011-02-09T23:27:08.789-08:00people seem to have no respect for anything or any...people seem to have no respect for anything or any one anymore. I see so many things that aren't just limited to dirty sleepwear that make me crazy, most of it centering around people who refuse to control their children, lol but that's for another time! I have to say I find my corset (for ren faires) rather comfortable. I'm large chested, and sometimes it's not comfortable to get into the steel-trap of a bra style I wear, but I do it everytime I leave the house because it's disgusting and distasteful not to. I will reach my arm out the partially opened screen door to grab the mail out of the box right next to it in my PJs... but it has never struck me to get into the car that way! lol. I mean, I've been pretty depressed at times, I've been through a divorce and my current husband and I have been through him going on 5 deployments since we got married 5 years ago, lol... so I've been in the dumps pretty bad from time to time and I can still manage to pull on a damn pair of jeans before I face the world.Lotta Dahlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10110429900653881113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6613414514492204167.post-8407653590555025242011-02-09T23:15:19.530-08:002011-02-09T23:15:19.530-08:00~ * ♥ * ~

It's not so much a "freedom to wear what we want" issue as in a "I can't be bothered and I don't want to be".<br /><br />For myself, there is an astounding lack of decency and respect for EVERTHING these days ~ for others, for our environment, and plain and simply for ourselves. This comes across in so many ways {such as being hours late to an event or not bothering to show up at all when you said you would} and not just wearing dirty pjs to the shops. <br /><br />I really feel that this discussion is less about what we are wearing as a comment on the state of our social conscious these days. But that could just be me. <br /><br />xox,<br />bonita of <a href="http://depictthis.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Depict This!</a><br />~ * ♥ * ~Lavender and Twillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06331125027969557539noreply@blogger.com
