1) What are you wearing right now?
Jeans, Keen sandals, a leather belt, and a teal colored t-shirt.
2) What would you rather be wearing right now?
I get to choose what I want to wear every day, so... not applicable? This is a benefit of disabled life or life outside of the capitalist grind. One does look for excuses to dress up upon occasion.
3) What is your favorite outfit of clothing that you currently own and wear?
Not so much an outfit perhaps but many individual items: My leather jackets, of which I have several. A soft green t-shirt from REI, a light-weight gray zip-up hoodie, and yoga pants. I have a long skirt I like a lot but it doesn't have pockets, woe. I have tall rubber boots with rainbow laces. Many of my favorite items are not great for hot weather.
4) What is your favorite outfit of clothing that you have ever worn?
When I was a smaller size (honestly probably underfed), it was a lot easier to find cool clothes for not very much money.
This one was "the adventure suit," a brownish skirt and zippered jacket. Brown leather patches adorned the top of the shoulders. It had pockets and the collar had a cool flare.

This outfit was a black pinstripe dress with cap sleeves, worn with a long grey jacket and black leather boots. It's a little bit dominatrix which is not really me, but it was fun to wear, and kind of cosplay that confidence.

Not pictured, a wool suit that I wore to a friend's wedding. The suit was a warm brown, maybe tweed?, and looked good with a maroon shirt and a tiger eye necklace-- my favorite colors. I briefly had some maroon-colored boots that I loved and wore with this outfit along with a flat cap, to guest speak at a class that Cabell taught.
I think I go for a slightly Star Trek uniform look in my fashion fantasies.
I am much fatter these days and all these clothes have been given away.
5) What was the last new or new-to-you garment you bought or acquired?
At a consignment store where my mom likes to shop, I got a navy no-iron blouse with an anchor motif. The anchors are small and white and I feel they reflect my recent fannish interest in pirates.
Thanks to
