I'm not sure it's "just" that I'm not used to those clothes. :)
Last summer I decided to try the "uniform". Capri pants, a sleeveless buttoned top, and heeless sandles. I studied the look carefully for the nuances that usually elude me. I didn't buy the sandles, but I did buy the top and capris. Well, I had to sew up the buttons on the top, because buttoned tops are a no no for a person with my build (grin). I looked utterly ridiculous. I now only wear that outfit when I don't intend to see anyone, and I should just toss it. With my basic shape, and my huge calves, and my knock knees, I closely resembled a Christmas tree ornament in shape. One of those weird shaped Christmas ornaments?
I'm glad I didn't try the sandals. I have abnormally high arches and tend to walk out of shoes with heels. I'd have killed myself in those sandals.
Maybe if I lost fifty or sixty pounds...
