Hand-Me-Down Advice
May I speak with candor? It may be that those pants
looked fine on your mother, your grandma or your aunts;
but drawstrings are for knapsacks and snaps are to call waiters.
And it’s been 50 years or more since fashion sanctioned gaiters.
I know that they are comfortable but another thing
is that they’re lacking in panache. They haven’t any zing.
And just to finally seal the deal, dear, men just don’t make passes
at girls in baggy bloomers that exaggerate their asses.
The prompt words were comfortable and candor.

“men just don’t make passes at girls in baggy bloomers that exaggerate their asses.” A bold thing to say in the #me too/#times up age. 😜

Haha — it’s been a long time since I’ve seen even a photo of bloomers like that! I’ll have to keep those in mind as I give away hand-me-downs!

Jammies are different. Just don’t try to go vamping in these as pictured.

Fairly recently wearing pajama bottoms out it public was in fashion, but they didn’t look like these!

Around here, it still is. It’s not fashionable, actually. It’s just comfortable. And Uxbridge is NOT fashionable. In any way.

OML! I laughed my keister off! It took me a minute to get the snap and waiters one! LOL

Yes.. I wondered about the obscurity of that snap without fingers to go with it.

Baggy bloomers might be out of fashion, but exaggerating asses is the height of style on South Beach. Bare bottoms in g-strings on the streets and padded underware to increase behinds to caricatural proportions. I am describing females (most;y).

I don’t know from Kardashians, although I think there is a bunch of them, but here Cuban “culitas grandas” rule.

You are lucky you don’t know who the Kardashians are..The mother made the family into a reality show and now the world is besotted with them.. None of them do anything. They are just famous for being famous and being beautiful –5 daughters. now the father has had a sex change operation so even her former husband is beautiful!!! The entertainment news is full of them in the U.S. and the first daughter to become famous has a huge derriere. She single-handedly made them fashionable. Now people have implants to have behinds as large or larger than hers.
