Ladies, what's up with the Mrs. Roper clothes this year???

OMG, I just looked through a JCPenney ad I got in the mail today and the dresses just aren't getting any better!!!! The patterns are gaudier than Mrs. Roper's clothes!!! WTH??? I mean I'm all for patterns and color but good God some of the crap I see in the stores right now and last year too, YIKES!!!!!!!!

That is why I buy from Blair.com

The stuff in the stores have been crappy for at least three years!

1975 catalogue re-released???







I've seen this kind of thing EVERYWHERE too, if I wore this to school the poor kids would end up cross-eyed!!!!! It hurts to even look at some of these things :haha:

No wonder they are 40-50% off. I would not take them if they were free!

OH! OH! OH! Mr Kotter...I know the answer to the problem!

Instead of buying/wearing clothes from the that resemble the 70's...everyone just run around Naked! Then...it won't matter WHAT the clothes look like!

Maybe streaking will make a comeback!!! lol

Ohio, I know of a nudist resort in Lutz Fla you could have fun at!!

I didn't mean ME!....You'd NEVER catch me wearing dresses like those! What do I care what they look like? Besides....that's the LAST thing you'd wanna see...me running around nekkid...

I agree...the dresses are beyond bizarre these last 2 years. Spring fashion?--hardly think so!
The other thing I hate are those cockamamy 3/4 sleeve jackets. This sleeve length looks okay on T-shirts but on suit jackets, it looks like you bought the wrong size!

And another thing....these stupid smocks, baby dolls, tunics, whatever you call them....they make you look PREGNANT. I never have and never will be...why would I buy something that makes me look that way?

Hey ladies! I really don't see the problem here: all you need is on shop.mlb.com in the tigers section!
Wear this stuff and we men are happy!

Tigers tanks and hoodies! WOO HOO

That's it lap! Exactly what we want! They have some kinky stuff too!

lol No, because I've seen the Tiger fans at my school and they all look like they could be their own fathers. Yes, even Tiger fans have the bunch they should hide in the attic.

- And just on a side note, I actually like a couple of those dresses... then again I am a bit of an exhibitionist (... although I cannot outdo Ohio on that one... funky patterns yes, nudism no :haha: )

Looking at those dress patterns, I'd swear it's 1969 again!

I thought those dresses were cute

OHHHHHH No.....no nudism for me, either! It was just a suggestion for those who don't like the "new" style of clothing available...personally, I'm quite comfy in my jeans and Tigers T-shirts...

My idea of dressing up is a pair of jeans withOUT holes and new tennis shoes!

I think I'm married to you Except my husband's idea is a concert t-shirt with no holes and new vans

Well...I must confess....I do own A suit (yeah...just 1..lol) that I wear on "special occasions"...namely, Funerals. Occasionally I'll wear a short sleeve button-up to school, but other than that, it's jeans and t-shirts or sweats. lol

He owns 2 suits, a winter one and a summer one, neither of which he'll wear unless, yep you're right, someone dies. At my brother's wedding, he was a groomsman and I shit you not, he wore vans

"I reserve the 'fancy' stuff for that oh so special occasion in which someone dies."
... Yeah, that's my dad AND my brother.

Like we didn't already know that!

It's finally starting to sink into my thick skull Seriously, I wish someone would buy me those new dresses :haha:

I like dresses on the left and right in that second picture...

Me too!! I really like the one on the right. Dammit now I want to go shopping

My idea of a summer suit (vs a winter suit) is the same suit minus the jacket

I suppose if I had a job that required a more professional appearance, I'd spend the money and buy more suits, etc. but since I work in a factory, forget it.

He had them before we got married and they still fit so The summer one is just thinner, that's all. He wouldn't be caught dead wearing anything nice now though I'll probably have to bury him in one of those damn suits
