You've got to worry when you get tagged for a girly 'tell us about your wardrobe' meme. Yeah, thanks Soph.Did I not mention how much I love watching V8's drive around a track and how much I like chopping up wood with my bare hands, just for the sheer heck of it?
Well, here you go- The five things in my wardrobe that I couldn't live without.
1. The jeans I pretty much wear day in, day out until the flies arrive.
2. Cotton On T-shirts. I have several million of these. Because I am unwilling to pay more than $10 for a t-shirt, these are the only ones available to me. They are usually slightly embarrassing looking, have some strange slogan written in another language, and some silly print. BUT they fit me, they are comfortable, and they are cheap.
3. White Bonds singlets. Call me an old man, but I need to be tucked in. I can't stand the feeling of cold belt buckle on raw skin. So, the singlet allows tuckage, while the aforementioned t-shirt can be then untucked, leaving my dagginess virtually undetectable to the human eye.
4. My crap old brown Dr Marten boots. I bought these in 2003, and pretty much haven't taken them off since, mainly because I can't find anything else I like. The soles have fallen off once, been taken to a repair guy once, and are now mid-way through falling off again. The end is nigh.
5. A small stack of neatly ironed and folded hankies in the front, right hand side of my undie and sock draw. This, my friends, is the pure essence of security.

My meme has life!
hehe...sorry. I don't read very many blogs, and every other girl I read had already done the meme!
You forgot to tag people!
Is that why guys have the white singlets? All becomes clear...
It is a sad sad day indeed when the Docs give up the ghost. Could they be resurrected again?
You could try Threadless Tees online for cheap t-shirts with better designs on them - they have $10 sales reasonably often so you can stock up.
I am a fan of the Bonds singlet.
In 2002, my husband used a Bonds singlet to propose to me! He decorated the singlet (with "will you marry me" etc), hid it under his t-shirt, and walked me to a spot overloooking the harbour before revealing the singlet (and the question). I have had a sentimental fondness for singlets since then.
Simone- yeah, good work!
soph- No, I'm good. I'm a very secure girlyman.
Amy- oops, you're right. I tag YOU, Amy.
I'm nervous about buying tshirts online. Most "small" sizes look dumb and big on me, so I reckon I'd keep getting stuff that didn't fit.
Juile- Wow.. who knew the humble singlet could be used for such heady purposes? Nice!
You use ironed hankies?? I cut my ironing teeth on ironing hankies as a child, but never thought that people still did it. Tell me, do you ask your wife to iron the pillow cases and sheets too?
