If you were forced to wear one outfit over and over again, what would it be?

EVERLASTING CLOTHES

In retirement I am not prevented from my desire to wear the same clothes over and over and over again. I am not forced because I am able to wear the same clothes over and over and over again. Not having to go to work means that I can dress in comfort around the house and except for those rare occasions, when it is necessary to go somewhere, I am able to wear the same clothes.

What helps in the Northern Territory is that one can wash the clothes one has worn during the day, put them out to dry overnight and put them on again the next day. That facilitates my response to this particular question.

I have a very old pair of blue shorts, the elastic in the waist has perished long ago. Fortunately, to assist the elastic which is long since passed its use by date, the shorts are fitted with a cord that I can pull tight and do up. My faded blue shorts are 12 years old and they’re not worn out yet.

I have a green and white striped singlet; it’s really, really, really old and I wear it pretty well every day. It’s full of holes, perished and will soon have to disappear into the rubbish bin. I will be sad to see itdisappear for it has been faithful to me for the best part of a decade.

In concert with this green singlet I have a green 3X R B Sellars T-shirt. It used to be green, are very bright green. It’s faded, very, very faded and has hardly any colour left at all. It’s also full of holes as happens to shirts that have been worn in the tropics day in and day out for years and years on end.

I love old clothes I love the ones I wear for they arew very comfortable and very, very me.
