What's the most embarrassing article(s) of clothing you own (or owned)?  For me, it's probably a pair of zebra print denim jeans and a tight-fitting black top (I think it was made of velvet or something).  I bought these from International Male around 1990 or so (that was about 35 pounds ago).  So, imagine an outfit similar to this on a guy and you'll get the idea:

None.  Which makes this even more embarrassing.

Back in the mid 70's when I was stationed in Scotland, the only kind of civilian dress shoes you could buy were platforms.  Those things pushed my height up to about 6'5" and I must've felt the same way clomping around in those things as Boris Karloff did when he played Frankenstein.

This is a good lead-in to my second most embarrassing clothing ensemble.  Around 1976 I had a blue denim leasure suit that I used to wear with flower-print polyester shirts, a wide white belt, and black platform shoes.  My mother has snapshots of me wearing this stuff.  I'll try to find one and post it here.

I had to wear the top of one of these suits at a wedding one time! I had stained my other suit top so I had to borrow one of my grandfather's old suits.

Another example is when I was six I wore a pair of army boots, army helmet and a pair of scuba goggles and snorkel, yes I was a very wierd child.

That's pretty much what I wear everyday when I'm not at work.

It was the mid-sixties, I was about 15 or so and was going to a dance with some friends. I wore a short royal blue cordoury skirt with a white poor boy sweater ... which was ok.  It was the black fishnet stockings with spiky heels, the teased up long hair, and the caked on make-up that me look like a teeny bopper hooker!

I can't imagine having let my mother see me walk out of the house looking like this, so I must have applied the "finishing" touches in the ladies room at the dance.  I thought I had looked so COOL!   

That was ages and pounds ago.  When I go out now I dress appropriately, but I still remember the rebellious teenager that still lurks inside --  that's why I love Halloween! TeddyR

I not only wore a leisure suit, but it was one that my mother made for me. That one was brown. The other suit she made for me, though, was a regular style suit, which was fine, but I insisted on sky blue material. Mmmmm, pretty.

When I was 8 I thought shiny neon bright colored stretch pants were the best!  I rolled them up to my knees because I just didn't like how they looked over my socks.  If I could find a really puffy pair of socks, I'd tuck my pants in them.  Watch.. give it 2-3 years, they're going to be the hottest fashion!

Like a lot of kids in the late '80s/early '90s, I had Hammer pants once.
And like a lot of kids in the '70s, I had hideous Garanimals.

I remember Garanimals ... they were both cute and ugly at the same time.  God, I  dressed my oldest son, Mark, in those.  I must have scarred him for life.    Buggedout
