I was struck with pity for sure, but also with disgust. I couldn't help it!
Maybe she doesn't have friends or family to tell her that going out in public looking like that isn't a good thing. If that's the case, that's very sad.
And I've spilled on myself before. It happens! But that's why *** created Tide to go pens...lol.

LOL - you remind me so much of my sister. When my son was alot younger under 1 yrs old I think, I met up with my sister one Sunday; and I'll never forget her comments that day.
It was my only day off, I had worked about 65 hrs that week at work, and spent all Sat night doing laundry and have to get up early to feed my son. So I was wearing farmer jean shorts, tank top and sneakers, hair up in scrunchie. The whole time we were talkling she kept stopping and asking me what is that stain, my reply "squash"; "what is that stain - banannas". Lol, I am very clean and organized, but having kids and working doesn't leave alot of time for makeup. In fact I hardly ever wear makeup anymore.
Not to mention the day I walked around with a barrel of monkey's monkey in my hair that my son placed there and I hadn't even noticed

LMAO @ atlantic. I soooo know that feeling.
I think I just saw this lady's long lost sister - purple camoflage pj pant, a faded navy blue Lynrd Skynrd t-shirt, and a funky brown knitted hat with a cap brim, c cked jauntily to the side... and slippers. She also had a look on her face that suggested "Do they sell meth at Kroger?"
We moved from Farmington Hills when everytime we went out, we saw someone crossing Grand River wearing slippers. Chris says it's time for him to get out of Belleville now, too. The public slipper wearers have arrived.

If this is not a great example of my point that women drive fashion and 'beauty' on each other and men have little to do with it nothing does.
A man would have looked at her chest or her behind and not even cared about the stains on her shirt, lol. The kids may have caused a "too much baggage" alarm or even a more complex thought of being a good booty call possibility, depending on the guy's point of view.
A more selective man may have avoided her because of her dress but he would no be prompted to go tell her or anyone else they need to spruce up for the sake of all women.
Why are you women so hard on each other? Men will like you even in a burlap sack.....some will like you better in a burlap sack, lol.

I have a difficult time respecting a person of either gender that obviously takes no pride in their appearance.
Also- I call bull that a guy wouldn't give a rip. As I mentioned above... it was my HUSBAND that decided it was time to get out of town when the public slipper wearers arrive. Did he confront her and tell her to put on some shoes? NO. But he talked about how inappropriate her attire was.

But your missing the point.....how does the lady know what the guy thought?
The guy is not going to say anything. It is fellow women who give each other fits for how they look. I love watching a very sluttly looking lady walking around some women who are dressed conservative. The conservative ladies are tossing daggers with their eyes and the slutty lady is eating it up, lol.
Why can't the lady wear whatever she wantsa without other women talking her down? In this case the lady is bummy looking, fine, but was her style (or no style) of dress really so bad several women have to talk bad about her? Your a woman, not me, so only you guys can decide but obviously men are not the ones applying pressure on women to look certain ways, that comes from fellow women.
I don't think any single one of us would walk up to a stranger and tell them they should seek a fashion consultant, but we are allowed to have opinions on how a woman, or anyone else, presents themselves.
Did you realize that they've had to write "No pajamas or slippers worn to school" into school dress codes? Whatever happened to putting your "best" you out there? And what the **** is worng with that?
It's just a little thing called pride. I may not have an overflowing closet, but I have enough respect for myself, and the people forced to look at me, for my clothing to at least be clean when I'm in public.

Again, your missing the point that it is not men who are pushing this agenda of dressing or looking a certain way, it is women who do it to themselves.
Let's take this example, no maybe you would not tell that girl anything, but you speak about her among yourselves and that reasserts the notion of always having to look a certain way between you. You are teaching each other to wear certain clothes and use certain beauty aids to gain acceptance with each other, not with men.
