I have no clothes to wear!!!!

Well, I have clothes but there all used, and I wasn't aware that the helper who washes the clothes in our building (we do have to pay per kilo) was not around! I just placed it in her room as I always do and expected it was washed already! Yesterday when my man came here I went to get my clothes, only to realize it's not yet washed! I had to wear something I didn't really plan on wearing...now, there's a long line for the washing machine and I need to wash my clothes because it's already too many (I have a new basket of used clothes to be added to the ones before), now I have nothing to wear which is appropriate for going out, my man went home just moments ago though for some business emergency in the province so I don't need to fret. Still! I'm already so hungry, but I can't wear lingerie to go out and buy food can I??? Jeeeeeeezzzz!!!! What a dilemma!!!

I wouldn't give all my clothes to be washed. And maybe have a extra outfit available on hand all the time incase this happens again. You never know and now you have experienced this and will be ready next time. Right? I do hope so for this can be a very hairy situation.

She must be panic on that time and I also suggest her to wash some of her clothes by herself. So just in case if all her clothes are unwashed at least she still have some to wear.

Hmm, I can't really picture someone whose clothes are all in the hamper for washing. I mean, even those that you wear when you're just home? The best thing you can do right now is to hand-wash even just a set that you could wear for the day and choose those that can dry fast. Call a fastfood joint and have food delivered. When the delivery guy arrives, just wear any used clothing you for the meantime until you've paid him and he's left :)

I've rummaged through my sister's closet and found something to wear...the clothes I have here in the city are usually for going out, or for sleeping...

Ha ha ha, when I read the heading, I was sure you are talking about the favorite statement made by every woman, because even if women have their closet full of clothes, this is the common dialog that you will hear...."I have nothing to wear" well , now in you case, you have no choice but to wait or just put on some thin dress which is still wet, it will dry up quickly when you will walk in the sun. I have many times worn wet dresses, which dry quickly, because besides sun rays and air, my body itself is very hot and can work as dryer...

and next time don't forget to keep a dress in spare for such emergencies. Because if there will be real emergency then you may have to roll into bed sheet and run.........

well, I say that sometimes too when I can't find something to wear for that particular occasion, even with a closet full of clothes!!! Hmmn, sadly there's no sun, it's very cloudy right now...but I might try your suggestion

I am in the habit of washing my clothes without having to wait till I have more to be washed. So I usually have clothes to wear whenever. When I say I don't have clothes to wear, it means that I do not have suitable clothes that look good on me. Enjoy yourself, friend.

ooh, good for you...Washing clothes is really just in the top of my most hated chores, it's so tiresome but this is a lesson for me though!

What a shame! That was very inconsiderate and irresponsible act on the part of the helper. She should have at least left a sign up saying she was not going to be able to wash and when she would be starting again. This would have saved a lot of people trouble! Hopefully, she has a good explanation.

It wasn't really, there are other helpers here, though they don't have the responsibility of washing the clothes...I just didn't ask... , stupid of me.

Certainly you can't go out in lingerie, i got some new information in this discussion, that is paying @ per kilo, here we pay per piece.. Well next time you need to be careful, better to buy a washing machine friend.. Thanks for sharing God bless you, have a nice day ahead. Professor ‘Bhuwan’. .

Well I guess you can get your man to do the dirty work, but honestly you need to ensure some of the clothes get washed real soon.

Try hand wash or wear your bf clothes. - T shirt and shirts are unisex.
well i guess, usually made sure your have extra few clothes and not delay washing them until too late and the last clothes your wear.However, if there is really emergencey your can always take your boyfriend or hubby t shirt to wear which is unisex some t shirt and go out buy foods and such.To relay on 1 laundry is dangerous, hopely there is other laundry around. Maybe learn to hand wash some simple clothes like t shirt which are easy to wash.

Is it possible for you to borrow someone's clothes? Or perhaps somehow wrap yourself in a coat or jacket and run into the shops quickly to buy some new clothes? Good luck!

You should have left some clothes that you like wearing, before the others were brought to your laundrywoman. That way, you are assured should a thing such as that happens, you still get to wear your favorite clothes. It's a good thing your man is our of town.

Sometimes we feel like this. But you can go with whatever dress u are wearing, go and get food. We think others have a lot of time to look at us. But in this world every body is busy with his own problems, works. So nobody will look at you. Please go and get food. I am sure you would have done the same thing because this has been posted one day ago. Further please do not feel bad for circumstances to which we are driven. But plan if necessary before hand in future. But your heading "I have no clothes to wear!!!!:" -- may be you gave this caption purposely made me read and answer this. have a good day. Wishing all success to you and your man!!

She should call for food delivery. Even if people is busy with their business but this will caught their attention if she just go like that. Ravi you can't asked her go out and get her food while she hasn't any!

hi ando! Buy one??Where?? That is mean she needs to get out of her house and buy cloth when she did not have any to wear?? If it is so she should just by some food instead of cloth.

I would rather wash my own clothes than ask/pay someone to do it~ I say it just for me. So how do you solve your problems? If she wash all those clothes at that time yet still can't get dry at that minute huh?? Perhaps you should call for some food delivery. Pizza perhaps??
