Talking Am I CRAZY??

I suppose I should be positively jubilant about this....I don't know, maybe I am!!

I am going CRAZY over underwear and socks!! I never used to be this way...but since I started changing sizes I made some discoveries...that crazy colored and patterned underwear can be FUN.....underpants, bras, and ... as a sideline ... SOCKS. Not just everyday work socks or athletic socks...they've all become too boring... I MUST have those thick, soft socks..the kind most people wear as slippers or around home...but I get them in wild colors and patterns....wear them every day. I'm in my second year of wearing sandals year round because I want to show off my patterns and colors that match my outfits. My feet are actually WARMER in these socks while I'm wearing my sandals...and I actually don't mind my feet getting a little wet once in awhile when it rains.

I can't be the ONLY one here....maybe I'm sharing this because I feel a little guilty for spending the money on all this stuff...I've never been able to wear the underwear like this before....and the socks have been relatively new in the stores for a few years....

Please...tell me I'm NOT CRAZY.....



(btw today I'm wearing all stripes....mostly in purple & lavender.....)

You are crazy, but who cares? It sounds like you are having a great time!

I am actually having my own clothing craziness...for bras! I am only a b cup. I used to wear a 38....finding a 38 B is hard. NOW I am a 36 b and I can find bras anywhere! (I have bought more in the past 2 months than I have in the past year. I even bought a push-up bra!)

P.S. Funky fuzzy socks rule!
