Do you wear white after Labor Day?

[ohiosmith]

[philosophie_en_rose]

1. yes, I do.

:)

[ohiosmith]

3. shame on you

[MissMillie]

2. shirts, yes

pants and skirts and shoes... no.


Then again, white is not an easy color for me to wear.

[ohiosmith]

5. Shirts only, OK.

[supernova]

4. Yes, I do

It's still very summery here in NC during September. Things don't really start to feel like fall for another 6-8 weeks.

I have a white handbag and white wallet that I haven't bothered to change out yet for my darker fall/winter handbag.

[ohiosmith]

8. Have you no dignity?

[supernova]

12. I'm a Southern Lady

I have the ultimate in manners and Fashion Dignitude!

*Sniff, points nose in the air* and storms off, all ladylike.

[ohiosmith]

19. Not if you wear white after Labor Day you aren't.

[supernova]

24. True ladies of class and quality

know when to follow and when to break rules. ;-)

Hey Serial Mom, meetcha down by the river bank and don't bother with that life jacket.

[ohiosmith]

27. "Ladies"!?

[skygazer]

6. I do around here

Back home in New England, probably not. For one thing, they'd never find me if I got lost in a blizzard. :P

But here in California, the weather is like summer for much of the year and white fits it.

[ohiosmith]

10. But,......it's after Labor Day.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

7. yes all the time.

[ohiosmith]

11. How could you?

[Fire Walk With Me]

9. You're asking ME for fashion advice?

:rofl:

[ohiosmith]

15. No. I'm preparing a list.

[Fire Walk With Me]

21. You'd definitely best be checking it twice!

And is that a pic and topic from "Serial Mom"? Great film.

[ohiosmith]

25. Yes and yes.

[1gobluedem]

13. No, never

I'm afraid Miss Manners and Emily Post will murder me in my sleep.

[ohiosmith]

16. Very good.

[Justpat]

14. yes, I wear white whenever I feel like it. eom

[ohiosmith]

18. You are very bold aren't you?

[Justpat]

72. Well, yes. - in a good sort of way.

I believe in the incredible lightness of white. White shoes to lighten my step,
white undies to make me proud in case I get hit by a bus and end up the emergency
room. I like the feel of white fur (fake of course) against my chapped face in the
winter. And who could not love the boldness of a white dress in an Italian restaurant?

Fashion rules are meant to be ignored by those of us forced to wear grey or navy
uniforms in our youth. We paid our dues in the realm of the drab, the ugly, the
boring. Now we are living it up by wearing white out of season. Besides, it goes
great with my totally white hair. Most of the time I look like a saint - or sometimes
a floozy at a toga party.

:hi:

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

17. I wear whatever I want whenever I want

Come and get me, Serial Mom!

[ohiosmith]

20. All in good time my dear.

[PeaceNikki]

22. When I saw the subject of this thread, Beverly Sutphin was the 1st thing I thought of

GREAT movie :D :rofl:


Chip: So happy I could shit.
Beverly: Chip, you know how I hate the brown word.
_______________________________________________________________________
Dottie Hinkle: Hello?
Beverly Sutphin: Is this the Cocksucker residence?
Dottie Hinkle: God damn you! Stop calling here!
Beverly Sutphin: Is this 4215 Pussy Way?
Dottie Hinkle: You bitch!
Beverly Sutphin: Now let me check the zip code. Two-one-two-fuck-you?
Dottie Hinkle: The police are tracing this call this very minute.
Beverly Sutphin: Well, Dottie Hinkle, then why aren't they here, huh, fuckface?
Dottie Hinkle: FUCK YOU!

Beverly Sutphin: Bwaahahahaha!

Dottie Hinkle: DIDN'T I JUST SAY FUCK YOU?
Beverly Sutphin: I beg your pardon?
Dottie Hinkle: Who is this?
Beverly Sutphin: Mrs. Wilson from the telephone company. We understand you're having some trouble with an obscene phone caller?
Dottie Hinkle: Oh Mrs. Wilson, I'm so sorry. These calls are driving me crazy! I've had my number changed twice already. I'm a divorced woman, please help me.
Beverly Sutphin: Well what exactly does this sick individual say to you?
Dottie Hinkle: I can't say the words out loud, I don't use bad language.
Beverly Sutphin: Oh yes I know it's difficult but we need to know the exact words.
Dottie Hinkle: I'll try. COCKSUCKER, that's what she calls me.
Beverly Sutphin: LISTEN TO YOUR FILTHY MOUTH, YA FUCKIN WHORE!
Dottie Hinkle: GODDAMN YOU!
Beverly Sutphin: MOTHERFUCKER!
Dottie Hinkle: COCKSUCKER!

It's still summer here. Labor Day or not.

[ohiosmith]

29. "Labor Day or not". Your family must be very proud of you.

Labor Day or not

[Heidi]

26. I do believe that my friend, The Magistrate, has a perfectly memorable saying about this very thing.

Are you out there, Mag? :rofl: :spray:

[The Magistrate]

30. Thanks For The Memories, Ma'am

Best wishes for you and yours, in this white-shoes-less aftermath of the Holiday....

[Heidi]

32. I'm afraid, sir, that I had to

change my shoes before replying to this post, so as to not dishonor us both. :D

[ohiosmith]

36. That was the appropriate thing to do.

[Heidi]

37. If I weren't involved in a dogfighting thread, I would thank you at length,

sir.

*Curtsy and blush*

[TommyO]

31. Not only do I wear white after Labor Day

but I chew gum in the house!

[KitchenWitch]

33. I wear white after Labor Day, chew gum in the house

and I run with scissors.

[PeaceNikki]

35. But do you say the "brown word"??

Hmmmmm??

[underpants]

34. Mr. Ohio guy you clearly know nothing about the south

[ohiosmith]

39. Oh my!

[Connonym]

38. The Vatican has decreed that I am not allowed to wear white EVER

fuckers

[ohiosmith]

40. I'm sure they have your best interests at heart my dear.

[Connonym]

47. Yeah but then the pope goes and wears white with RED SHOES?!!

He gets to go out looking like a hot slut virgin and *I* can't wear white. harrumph :silly:

[ohiosmith]

56. Heels are too low for a slut virgin.

[Debi]

60. Not just red, babe, those are Prada! n/t

[Connonym]

63. so it's true, the Devil DOES wear Prada?

I'm already excommunicated so wtf :-D

[Deep13]

41. Since my transfiguration, I wear white exclusively.

Hmmmm. Maybe it is more like this:



I'm higher than Jesus right now.

[ohiosmith]

43. No excuses. It's after Labor Day.

[AlCzervik]

42. yes but it's black, thats the new white.

[ohiosmith]

44. It's not nice to confuse serial mom.

[RebelOne]

45. White clothing is acceptable, but no white shoes after Labor Day. n/t

[ohiosmith]

48. It's not advisable to correct serial mom.

[GRLMGC]

46. I never understood this

Isn't everyday, technically, after Labor Day? If not, when can one wear white shoes again.

Great reference, by the way. That movie was hilarious.

[ohiosmith]

49. After Easter my dear.

[SeattleGirl]

50. I don't wear white.

Ever.

[ohiosmith]

52. Does anyone in Seattle?

[SeattleGirl]

55. Only the tourists.

:)

[ohiosmith]

57. But not after Labor Day right?

[Burma Jones]

51. I get whiter after Labor Day

I always wear dark colors because I am a sloppy eater and I have come to accept that. I wear a white Tux shirt, along with the black suit, when I sing.

[ohiosmith]

53. But no white shoes, right?

[Burma Jones]

61. Just the New Balance tennis shoes

I haven't worn white Dress Shoes since the late 1980s, with my Seersucker and white Panama Hat.....between Memorial and Labor Days.....

I got married and we had kids and I just don't give a damn how I look since.......I kinda miss being flamboyant and making my Mom worry about my sexual orientation.

[ohiosmith]

62. Seersucker and white Panama Hat. Classic.

Seersucker and white Panama Hat

[GreenPartyVoter]

54. If you knew how often I stain my clothes, you would never have asked me if I wear white, period.

[ohiosmith]

58. You kind consideration is sincerely appreciated.

[Debi]

59. White shoes and white dresses are banned after Labor Day

I may be willing to wear 'winter' white slacks - but probably not. Time to rotate the wardrobe :thumbsup:

Oh, BTW, LOVED the movie!

"During opening arguments, Beverly notices that a member of the jury, Juror #8 (Patricia Hearst), is wearing white shoes after Labor Day, a conservative fashion faux pas........Beverly follows Juror #8 to a nearby payphone. Beverly tells the juror that white shoes shouldn't be worn after Labor Day, asking if "your mother you anything" as she strikes the juror in the head with the telephone receiver. Juror #8 pleads with Beverly, saying "fashion has changed!" Beverly responds, "No, it hasn't," striking her a second time, killing her."
