I want to get a little more mileage out of the picture below. Look at my father, the second from the left. He is wearing dark blue or black pants and a pale blue shirt. We can’t see his shoes, but I will tell you what kind of shoes he is wearing, heavy black shoes, as in the kind worn with uniforms. He always wore a pale blue shirt, dark blue or black pants, and black leather shoes.
I don’t remember seeing him in anything casual or sporty. I think wearing anything else other than his normal clothes he would have felt like he was being pretentious and a phony.
He was very humble and didn’t put on airs.
Same as my dad, Eddie. If mom and I hadn't made him dress up occasionally, he would have had on his "work clothes" all the time.
ReplyDeleteI am most comfortable with shorts on in the summer, and the warm parts of the fall and spirng, and sweats on the rest of the time.
