Here is something I have a bit of trouble with. Wearing white after Labor Day. I've heard this before and recently Weishaupt brought it up to Sara, that she was indeed wearing White Pants after Labor Day. My question is, uhh, why? Where did this fucked up rule come from? Really folks, it has been bothering me ever since I was reminded of this. Was this brought on by the color textile industry in order to boost sales? IP: Logged |

I thought the rule was no white SHOES after labor day. I read about it in Erma Bombeck so it's been around since our parents were young. (I don't think this includes tennis shoes tho)It's one of those fashion faux-pas like wearing heels with tight jeans. -Bex IP: Logged |

This rule was created by psychologists. Because wearing a bright and cheary color like white makes people happy, psychologists (and phamaceudical companies alike) are afraid of the idea of losing the profits that are to be had from the most depressing time of the year because of a bright color.At least that is what my microwave told me IP: Logged |

Wearing white doesn't make me happy. For one, white makes a person look fatter than they are. Black is much nicer. Second, spills are unfailingly attracted to white clothes. I wore a white shirt to Six Flags Great America once. In the car on the way, I spilled coffee all over my chest simply because the cup missed my mouth. I had to stop at a Target on the way to buy a dark shirt. I shopped with the stain bunched up in my fist, grabbed the first dark shirt I saw and changed in the bathroom on the way out. My sister, who was with me, still dies laughing whenever she remembers it. -Bex IP: Logged |

I feel your pain. But then, tits are a food magnet, too. Most of the women I know can't eat without dropping something on their chest (if they have one). What gives?And the deal with white: look here. Or, god, do a search on google. You come up with some crazy shit. IP: Logged |

I hear ya... Man, oh, man, do I ever drop stuff on my chest... (DD cup, doncha know.) I think it has to do with Murphy's Law... or maybe the tits get hungry, too. IP: Logged |

my fashion police friend Thomas told me that. An ex girlfriend, err... one of those girls that comes over sometimes, whatever her title was, told me that too. But from what i gather it's a "french thing" and supposedly we must do what the french do. I don't like the "french" so i wear white in spite. Another thing you cannot do is Wear white socks with Dark shoes, or a dark belt. Go figure.oh yeah.. and CHIC... is pronounce SHEEK. now you are no longer a "fo pa" or however you spell that lame shit. Peter IP: Logged |
