Lisa, those dolls have a scary, creepy look to them! Perfect for Halloween...
For me boy shorts don't do that - bikini style undies often do though...
the only problem I have ever had is with cotton boy shorts. They are too thick to wear under jeans comfortably. Microfiber ones are very comfy for me (and show no panty lines under dress pants, which I have to wear to work). The cotton ones are like wearing shorts, they are just too bulky to wear under pants. I do like to wear them to sleep in though.
That's why I think I am a freak of nature... boy shorts just don't work on me, but I keep wearing the Ibex ones for running, hiking, x country skiing, since they don't show. I have tried wearing them under regular pants in very cold situations, but they are so bunched up, it's horrible.
I know we've had this discussion before, so I won't belabor the point. For regular underwear, I wear thongs. I get expensive ones, they stay put, and I forget about them.
Still thinking about that Kurta, though.
Well, I checked out the kurta at LBS Clever Cycles. The knit fabric is gorgeous, very soft and smooth and a nice medium weight that drapes well. The styling is elegant yet practical, with a handy slim zipped pocket built into the seam. Not the best style though for someone with a long, thin neck. Made me look like a lollipop head. But it looked fab on Martina, one of the owners. She wore it over a striped shirt with the collar turned up next to the cowl, worn over leggings and boots. She's not slender, which goes to show that this garment can look good on different body types. So there you have it.
Off topic, it isn't even wool, but "not spending the money for it" came to mind when I got an ad for this in my email box. Are they KIDDING????
I guess you must really have to like skiing?
You could buy a nice bike for that. Even I am not that jaded.
My wool purchases from SAC have been trickling in. Most of them are not for me, but now I wish that I had ordered some of them in my size.:rolleyes::o The SW microweight zip-T is very nice. The fabric has a light ribbing and feels so soft - softer than my wool base layers, anyway. Maybe I'll wear it around for a bit before I send it off to Dh.
Patagonia Merino 1 crew - like silk, the softest, thinnest, yummiest wool base layer I've ever had (and that's over Smartwool, Ibex, Io/Bio, Icebreaker, REI, Helly Hansen, and probably others I have forgotten). Has a nice scoop neck which lends a more feminine touch.
Patagonia Merino 4 bottoms - Wow. Layered under a pair of medium weight fleece pants, I was toasty warm through 4 cold days of steelhead fishing in 46 degree water over my hips. Sized and fitted more like loose tights, so if you want to layer under tight clothing buy a size smaller. Washed up like a dream. Wish I had these for my Alaska fishing trips.
Patagonia Ultra Heavyweight mountaineering socks under neoprene wader feet and a lt pair of neoprene wader socks and who knew my weakest point was standing in 46 degree water for 8 hours a day for 4 days! Cold? What cold! So far only Patagonia and Cabelas make mountaineering weight socks sized for small feet. I like the denser weave of the Patagucci's but you pay for it.
And the piece de resistance when the winds came up.
SK - I LOVE that hat! Can you tell me...is it stretchy at all? I have a huge head and would need a larger size unless it's stretchy and that's hard to tell from the picture. ;)
(please, please, please let it not be stretchy so that I'm not compelled to buy it.....)
