Ten on Tuesday – Favorite Clothing
January 27th, 2009 . by Joyce
For Ten on Tuesday, Yano asks, “What are ten favorite articles of clothing you own?” I don’t know if I have that many favorites, so I’ll begin with what I look for in clothing before it can become a ‘favorite’:
- Comfort of fit and fabric. No scratchy tags, please.
- Texture. I’m a nut for pleasing textures, such as chenille and nubbly knits.
- No wool, as it is itchy for me
- Modesty of cut, which means longer skirt lengths, pants not too tight, necklines not too low.
- Comfortable shoes, so clogs or slides are favorites
- OK. Now onto the favorites. My number one favorite clothing item is pajamas. My lavender waffle-weave PJs are my current favorites, since the weather is chilly. When our youngest son was little I would come home from shopping and ask, “Guess what Mommy bought you?” After a while, he would reply, “It’s not more pajamas, is it, Mommy?” I got a bit carried away with that until he brought it to my attention.
- Silky black leggings. I find leggings so much more comfortable than tights, yet still nice and warm.
- My hooded sweaters
- Long-sleeved cotton/polyester tees. My red and teal tees are current favorites.
- My dressy black skirt, because I can mix-and-match tops ad infinitum with it.
Good morning! I think I would have difficulty finding ten things that I LOVE in my clothing dept. Although, if I think about it, I probably have about 10 things that I actually wear so I could give away all the rest!
Hope you have a great day!
I do love comfy clothes, they are my favorite
Thanks for visiting my blog 
Comfort is hugely important to me too. It has to feel good before I think about how it looks. I love chenille also.
I can’t believe how difficult it can be to find modest cuts…especially for Rebekah. She has a curvy figure and finding tops that aren’t cut too low is a huge challenge, one I feel I fail at far too often.

I’d have to agree with your pick of items to look for. There was a time when I’d wear all sorts of uncomfortable things but no longer. Oh to be in some pjs now…

I love comfort too! Clogs are my favorite shoe of choice, I also love hooded sweaters! It is so hard to find tops that are modest. I was out looking yesterday, and ended up buying the same top in three different colors, because of everything I tried on…it was the most modest!

Your priorities resonate with my own. These days I’m in sweats around home most of the time … casual slacks, shirts and a lightweight jacket when I go out … usually accented with a bit of simple jewelry.
Hugs and blessings,
