We are what we wear

We say that we are what we eat. I realize we are also what we wear. Our choice of clothes reveals so much about our personalities.


This afternoon I noticed three of my freshly laundered shirts hanging in the clothes line. I realized how the prints and embroideries on the shirts expose my basic yet strong interests: cats, dogs and plants.

The cat shirt is an embroidery of a cat's head and its tail. It used to be a long night shirt, but I "cut it to tee".

The shirt with dog prints has one chihuahua shaped from silver studs and four black chihuahua that only appear as ghost images. They only appeared that black because the shirt is on the wrong side.

The pink shirt has a patch the shape of a palm tree.

Not all my clothes exhibit my interests though, but I do have a fair amount of shirts with cats or dogs designs. This makes me wonder if the people who wear real fur actually love animals that they love to wear them -- dead -- on their shoulders and around their necks. Hmmm....
