All Dressed Up...

Liked this nice little peace by Robert Herrick:

928. CLOTHES ARE CONSPIRATORS.


Though from without no foes at all we fear,
We shall be wounded by the clothes we wear.

I am not too particular about my dress, but still, I can understand the sentiment: we are betrayed by the clothes we wear.

"Dear Mr. Thourlby,
Thank you for your wonderful no-nonsense guide, You Are What You Wear. I bought a copy of it in a used book store and it has paid off immensely in increased self-esteem, increased respect, and increased income."
