I am. My mom said I'm no fun to shop for clothes with. (I don't like lacey stuff whether it be undergarments or shirts.) I'm very picky and my family hates it.  |

| When I was a kid/teenager my Mom HATED to go shopping with me. Im very picky about what I wear and I always have been. I am my parents only girl so it was hard on my Mom that I wouldnt wear dresses and cute lacey stuff. I still will rip the tags out of clothes and will only wear loose fitting cotton and NO jeans. I also have issues with shoes...the only ones I can tollerate are flip flops and tennis shoes. I guess its more sensory but I was never into the current fashions either. |

Bras are fine it's the neck straps for bathing suits that I hate. It's funny in Elementary I was picked on for not having breasts and yet there was a girl with HUGE ones and she didn't get picked on.  |

I HATE clothing... and shopping for clothes... and all of that. My shoes are so worn out there are almost holes straight through the sole. Some of my shirts I have had since I was in grade 6... same with my jeans now that I think about it. I would rather just find one thing I like and buy 3 of them and not have to worry for a while. Unfortunately that doesn't seem like the most socially acceptable thing to do. *Shrug* I basically wear t-shirts and jeans. I hate shorts or skirts/dresses... cant stand them. My clothing makes people think I am 8 years younger than I am, lol. _________________ Humm, guess I should put something witty here, huh? |

The only time I go shopping for new clothes is out of necessity never out of want. My family says I can look good but it's at the expense of my own comfort, which I value more than looking nice. So if it's not comfortable I wont get it, very picky indeed. _________________ The breaking of a wave cannot explain the whole sea. |

I can't stand them if they are "too busy" or they simply don't feel nice and soft. I also rarely buy things that are advertisements for other companies or teams. Like, you won't really see me in a Pepsi or Ambercrombi & Fitch t-shirt.
Also, loose jeans are the best. Tight clothing is just lame and makes me feel constricted. |

| I can only wear T shirts and shorts. In the winter if I must wear jeans I will run into my bedroom strip as soon as I get home and change into a pair of comfortable shorts. I can only wear jeans. No kakhis, no dockers, nothing. I can't wear long sleves either no matter how cold it is outside. I could never wear buttons since I was a little kid. I think it was becuase I found them so ugly. I have a long sleved button down Lion King shirt I am going to sell on eBay. The one Lion King shirt that probably fits that I could never wear. My sister-in-law told me that the Texas school won't let kids wear T shirts and all they can wear is collored button down shirts. I bet that would change if I went to school there or I would get kicked out. My T-shirts must have an animal of somekind on them or I won't wear them. No clothing store lables for me, and the Holister seagull dosen't coun't. No band T shirts either. The only excpetion is my Lion King logo T-shirts. I also have to have things several sizes larger. At first I thought it was because I had gained some weight than I realised I was always like that. I once went to Hot Topic because I learned they sold Invader Zim T shirts, only to find out that the largest size would only remotly fit an anereic person. I wish whoever designed Hot Topic's clothing would gain fifty pounds. Every T shirt I own has come from a zoo gift shop or a thrift store. There never have anything I like at deparment stores. I will not pay 50 dollars for a shirt with a store's logo on it. I am NOT a billboard. Zoo T-shirts are always pricey but at least they have things I like on them. My shorts are store bought because I can only wear snap close denium shorts and sometimes it is hard to find those at a regualr store. My parents always buy my clothes for me becuase I will not shop for them. They know what I like and don't like. Bras are so unfomfortable that I rarely wear one. Even in public. |

Shop based on comfort, then durability. I am NOT known as a fashion maven, though I can be scrubbed up well enough.

I'm not too picky - all I require is that the clothes fit well (basically that the shoulder area/armholes fit well and the rest isn't too tight) and that they're comfortable. At that point I can usually pick out outfits that look all right from what I own.
Pants I'm extremely picky about - no gaudy pockets or horrible patch-looking things that will be out of style in a month and clash with everything I own. Pretty much only dark skinny jeans, no baggy pants. I hate excess fabric floating around my feet unless they're sweatpants, which I barely wear anyway.
I can't wear wool either, for obvious reasons, or linen-cotton shirts (the exotic-bohemian looking ones), they just don't feel right against my skin. Giant beaded things with plastic threaded fishing line threaded through hurts my skin too.
I do love shopping, and will jump at the chance to go shopping, but I only buy things I love, nothing really out of necessity... |

I am afraid of thrift store clothes, my girlfried use to work at a Value Village, and they would get some clothes from the hospital, some of them had bullet holes and blood on them
I normally wear lowrise bootcut jeans Lee's Dungeries, and black t-shirts _________________ http://neuraldeviant.freesmfhosting.com/index.php |
