Or maybe just no honest friends?I know I'm surrounded by people who come right out and tell me when I'm about to walk out of the house with something questionable. It could be the straightforward New England/New York Jewish slant I've always been surrounded by. "Those jeans do you NO favors" and "I can see your crack" or, "That bra gives you four boobs". Really, good to know. "You aren't 20 anymore, take it off" and my all time personal favorite, "You need longer shorts so no one sees the really wavy part of your legs". Hey, as painful as it is, I'm glad to hear it before I walk out in the world looking like a fool.
So what happened here? Who forgot to tell this woman that some kind of undergarment is necessary with a crochet dress? (Yep, those shadows aren't your imagination. It's clearer in the real photo.) And the other two women? I cringe to think of how much yarn and time they've managed to use up on their outfits - all that effort and no payoff. Can you tell the chick in orange has a sweater, a skirt, a belt, a scarf AND a hat made of the same orange acrylic? A little mix and match might have done her well.

As long as we're on the topic of things people tell me around here, it was pointed out to me last night that the ball bands from my cahsmerino yarn skeins are, well, a little inappropriately shaped. Hmmm.
OK, maybe there is such a thing as too much commentary.(Don't tell me you aren't checking your own ball bands now.....)
