When we moved here, I got rid of most of my clothes, keeping (apart from an adequate supply of basics and coats) only about a week's worth of plain t-shirts, 4 jumpers, 2 pairs of jeans, 2 skirts and 2 pairs of combats. Deciding I need a few more summer clothes that are not t-shirts, I went shopping this week and utterly failed it.


Clothes this season are clearly designed by people not old enough to remember how dreadful those sloppy-stretchy materials looked in the 80s. And leggings. I mean, WTF? They look okay on about 0.01% of the population. Ditto banana-yellow tops. I ended up buying one plain grey short-sleeved jumper that didn't look like it had stretched in the wash. I think it is back to shopping in the sports/outdoors section for me again. Or even a hippy/student place but I think I'd have to go to Bern for that.

Work is greatly improving, though not so much to do today as nearly everyone has taken the day off for a long weekend. Sun is in the sky, beer plans by the lake are arranged. Life is good.

on deh interwebs! SRSLY! I'm so fussy that once I find clothing I like I'll order a bunch of whatever it is just so I don't have to buy again for a while.

applies to the air force and my clothes. My current batch  of pants (6x blue) and t shirts (12x white, 6x grey) are all going south at the same time.

So this time Im diversifying and buying the same pant/shirt in different colors.
