My husband is basically not a person who voices out what’s on his mind nor his feelings . Thus , I was surprised when the other Tuesday evening when I came home from work , he asked me what my officemates thought of the new blouses that I wore in the office . These new blouses were courtesy of her auntie , who opened her suitcases filled with yet new shirts , blouses , panties and make-ups she bought whenever there are clearance sales each year , when she was still in the US . Since she now is thin from her formerly fleshy form , she doesn’t like them for herself nor for her sister , my mother -in-law who is also thin , so she have them tried on me . And when it suits me , she gave them to me . She gave out a lot to everyone at home . And since last week , I have been wearing them . My officemates are fascinated that I have lots of new blouses much to the delight of my hubby and auntie when i tell them in the evening when i arrive home . I have to tell my officemates though , that they were gifts to me by my hubby's auntie from the US , lest they might check my lifestyle , like they do to those politicians . So , when one day I decided to wear my old blouse , my husband likes me to change into another new one. But I told him that I will , next week . Hmm , now he is mindful of my new blouses . What about your partners , are they mindful of what you wear ? Good afternoon everyone !

My style of dress is pretty non-flashy. People think I've gotten a haircut when I don't wear my baseball cap. Here it is, modeled by one of the kids I work with. The kids love to "steal" my cap and put it on.

Oh don't do that to your girlfriend . We girls like our partners to mind how we dress and appreciate when it is something very nice .

I guess we mellow when we ages . Wow, really it's your hubby who buy you clothes . And you like what he bought . I never like my husband to buy my clothes , because he has a conservative taste .

I love that you all use umbrellas for the sun rather than the rain - we do that in SA as well but most are dark colours

we only have sun and rain here and use umbrellas for both @inlemay and yes, they come in all colors, prints and sizes. some the street vendors even have this hat that looks like a small colorful umbrella without the handle. i thought using an umbrella on sunny days was more of an asian thing.

Since the only one who would notice is my son, he never says anything, not even when I get my hair done. I have to mention it in order for him to notice anything new about me. My X was the same way. He never noticed anything.

So here you are , finally , my friend . You see i think he wants to always know when i arrive home if my officemates likes my new dress again , as i told him and auntie that they are always fascinated that i have been having new blouses courtesy of his aunt . And i told them , my officemates would also like auntie to be their auntie.

@ridingbet You are right . Ever since i am young , i always have a taste for nice clothes . Good thing , my mother provides me with nice clothes then . So, until i die , i will always be mindful of how to dress according to occasions . Though , i like my pants to be always denims (maong ) . I make them formal by just wearing high heels.

@SIMPLYD i believe you are a heavy dresser my lady. what i mean is, you can carry an attire according to its character. you can be formal when you wear formal, and you can be groovy when you are in denims and t shirts. (like me)

It is obvious your husband is happy that your auntie gifted you with nice dresses and so he is delighted to see you wearing those clothes always. My husband is mindful also of what I wear. Even inside our home, he would react if he saw me wearing too old clothing which I sometimes do when I find the texture of that clothes soothing to my skin but my husband would force me to change it to a new one.

@SIMPLYD Your Auntie-in-law became quite shopholic to your benefit hahaha, clearance sale can really entice shoppers to buy more than they need. I am also mindful of my husband's wardrobe because sometimes he is baduy so I have to check his color combinations.

Yes, he is so happy i have new blouses without having to spend money . I have a lot of new ones actually because the two of them would open the boxes one by one . And i have new shorts at the bed whenever i arrive home from work . The other time a box of nice panties ,made in Vietnam . My daughter has also some shirts and boxes of panties. We cannot fathom how Auntie have amassed so much new things. She said everytime there's clearance sale she would buy . Now, she doesn't remember she has bought them . There are also lots of new pants but none fitted me because it's small on my hips . Really , you husband is that mindful . Wow , that's nice of him . As to like that , we are the opposite . I mind what my hubby would wear because he would wear even those with tear already . So , what i do is when he has worn them already and been washed i wrap them in a plastic and put it on the garbage .

@1creekgirl I am not much into accessories because after alighting from my brother-in-law's car in the morning , i would take the jeepney to our office . Make-up , i always do put on make-up . But that's after arriving at our office , since it's still early for the office time .
