What not to wear at Walmart (or anywhere else on the planet)

        This weekend I went to Walmart and saw someone that needs to join the ranks of the worst dressed Walmart shopper. Yes, this list is long and easy to get onto. As a matter of fact, when you type in "worst dressed people at Walmart" there are several sites of photos that make it into this special hall of infamy. Any one wearing clothes in which your body parts hang out unnaturally or way to much skin is revealed automatically goes onto this list.  Ladies who wear a double D but squeeze themselves into a "small" tee shirt easily are placed in the ranks of terrible clothing attire. I can't even fit my tiny self into a small tee shirt anymore and when I do I look like I am trying to relive my teenage years.  People who are not children in pajamas also go on the list especially those with the cartoon character pjs.  I saw a lady in her nasty scraggly robe there the other night and I was in awe, it was not even late enough to be in your robe as it was maybe 7 pm.
       If you are going to purposely subject yourself to stares and glances of other shoppers, you should at least wear clean pajamas. Then there is the lady who thinks she is still 18, though to be nice she was over 40. I love the eighties, at least their music, but women in their middle 40's to 50's should not be wearing spandex pants with a neon over the shoulder shirt. I also recommend proper undergarments at the store. Heavy women should not wear spandex in any circumstance and they most definitely should wear underwear that covers properly and you most definitely need a bra with an over the shoulder shirt  whatever size you are.  I will save the visual for you and stop there. Also high heels do not go with everything, especially tiny shorts that by the way do not fit women in the plus sizes.  I am not even allowed to wear my daisy dukes outside and I have a nice figure in my opinion.   I have an itty bitty skirt that I thought would be nice to wear out and I know Jay, my best friend and body guard for the night, would have sent me back to my house to change.
       Of course some people don't have time to prepare themselves before going out, I mean it is only Walmart right? I occasionally will wear my sweats out and have done so early or late at night. But I constantly see my students at Walmart so I know I can't look too scraggly. Yes, there have been occasions when my lion's mane was unruly or when my socks didn't match or even gasp, wearing a sports bra. But at least I know I won't be caught as one of the worst dressed there. I hate to only pick on the women shoppers, but unfortunately they bring it on themselves. I have seen a few men who have been flamboyant or colorful in their clothing choices at Walmart. Even seen a few men in their jammies there, but by far the women take the cake.
