Things my mother has said to me about clothes:
“We have to wear bohemian clothes, me and you, because of our curly hair. Do you know how bad we look in a polo shirt or a cable-knit sweater??”
“It cuts me!” (referring to the crotch region of uncomfortable jeans)
“Comfort matters a lot to me. A lot.”
“Well-made shoes are worth the investment. I’ve had these red snow boots since college, and I get compliments on them every time I wear them. I love them. You can’t have them.”
“Is this too matchy-matchy?”
“I’m cold. I’m always cold.” (explaining why she has so many cardigans)
What are some of the things your mother has told you about clothes?
