That's me!

It's nice dressing up and looking smart. I don't do it so much these days but it makes you feel a million bahts looking dapper. I'm with you about ties.

Fauxie said:

I can't stop buying ties

I think I have over 20 pair and counting now

(I came here with only 2 )

Imago said:

Do you have any pics of them? Yeah, buying ties can definitely be addictive. I think I've lost most of mine. Sometimes I miss looking sharp and being made to feel uncomfortable by female students' inappropriate advances.

Fauxie said:

Thai and Chinese women have no clue how to do the "non flirt" flirt

It's just blatant. THey might as well be standing up and screaming "Take my pussy now you walking ATM farrang! "

In my saturday adult class I had a class of 6 women aged 18-32 and I'd be in the middle of teaching something and a conversation would start up something like this:

Ice: "You are very good English teacher"
Me: "Thank you"
Ice: "Where do you eat lunch? I want to eat lunch with you"
Me: "We can all go downstairs and get noodles together if you like"
Ice: "I don't care my boyfriend"
Me: "....."
Ple: "She like you"

Fauxie said:

I've been invited to do something on the weekend.
I said, 'no' of course, but I don't think that's going to be the end of it.

It's like that Greek God (I forget his name) punished by feeling eternal
thirst, and having his head dangle just above a large pool of crystal
clear cool water he can never drink from.

Off to lecture now

That girl Ice would answer the phone in class and talk to her boyfriend. Such a pain in the ass, always disrupting lessons and making advances and the other students would egg her on. It was fun but made the lessons a nightmare to control. Like I told you about before, she wore the shortest skirts you've ever seen and pornstar-esque heels. I'm not quite sure what girls like that are there for but it ain't to learn English! Mon came to pick me up after class one day just to get a look at her. I thought something was going to kick off but Mon just said something to me like "she sexy but look a bit slut"

Enjoy your lecture.

I don't know...what I'm picturing is more scary, than sexy

at my work, we can wear casual clothes, but in the beginning I used to dress up with suits and dresses and wear a different style each time. Now I just go casually cause I don't want to alienate any clients and look like I'm superior to them.

sextonseven said:

do you have any photos from then!!!!

Imago said:

my son read this from a bumper sticker and asked me what it means:

"save a mouse, eat a pussy"

ZombieKitten said:

It actually says 'stop war' but I like Dan's translation better.

Fauxie said:

Could you post any pic of Ice, please?

well this week i have a teaching job- but it'll be dressed casual ( as do others i've seen) jeans, colorful top, some bracelets or earrings.

KoolEaze said:

Alas, I have none.

I'm in a creative field so nobody gives a flying shit what I wear I'm super casual always.

I work as a receptionist but my uniform makes me look like a travel agent.

I can wear whatever I want to work.

Fauxie and Imago
I can relate. The first few times i went to south and central america it was pretty humorous.
Man, are the men cute there tho.



My style is low-key. Occasionally trendy, but mostly understated.
That works real well with being an artist and running a non-profit.

I am not a big fan of dressing for business meetings. At all.
Of course, putting the top of your swimsuit back on is appropriate meeting attire in Florida.

CalhounSq said:

Same. Here I just wear whatever I can find to stay warm.In Miami, my old work clothes consisted of flip flops or sneakers, cargo pants, a t-shirt, and a multi-pocketed apron to stick shit in with a bunch of clips hanging off me...and NO MAKE UP

sammij said:

co- I wish I was an art director

i'm fortunate to be able to wear whatever i want to work. i love that i am comfortable and it makes me 100 x more productive. i will never have a job in which i have to wear a suit and tie. that just doesn't work for me. lol.

I'm a bit of a dapper dandy and so thankfully I'm in a profession where, for example, 3 piece Savile Row suits are not exactly de rigeur, but are pretty common. Hence I have a stupidly large collection of really nice tailored suits, shirts, ties and cufflinks etc and I get to indulge myself every single day.

My favourite work clothes items are a Gieves & Hawkes dark blue chalkstripe wool and cashmere double-breasted suit and a New and Lingwood long brown moleskin coat lined in fuschia silk and trimmed with yellow paisley pattered cotton inside the pocket flaps. Even the button-holes are trimmed in electric blue! Although it sounds like a bit of a colour coordination nightmare, it's actually quite subtle, but with flashes of iridescence every so often. I may post a pic.

What about on dress down Friday though?

At my job we have to dress professionally. We can't wear jeans or gym shoes or t-shirts, no large earrings. We can have colors in our hair but nothing too bright or 'outlandish'. But since my department consists of constantly being out of the of the office doing home visits I don't have to stick to the code to much. I generally wear slacks and maybe t-shirt with or without a suit jacket with some black air-force one's. When its cold I wear hoodies. I don't ever wear jeans.
