5 Reasons You May Need To Update Your Wardrobe

August 28, 2008 · Filed Under , · 5 Comments 

As most of you know, my wife and I are the proud parents to 3 kids. The oldest of which just started 1st grade. He wanted me to take him to his first day. A very proud moment for this Dad! Although, as I was leaving, I was feeling really down in the dumps. Not sure if it was because he is getting older, or because I am! I am thinking it was a little of both.

But anyways, all the kids in our house had a dresser full of clothes that didn’t fit. So my wife and I had to stock them up with some new threads for the school year. This got me thinking of my own clothing choices over the years, and how I really needed to update some of my threads. So while I was weeding out some REALLY old clothes and putting them in a bag for Goodwill, I came up with this list. So without further-ado, or with plenty of ado, your call, here are the Top 5 Reasons You May Need To Update Your Wardrobe:

  1. Drawer full of shirts so small, that when worn, appear to be half-shirts straight from the mid-80’s. Oh wait, they are half-shirts from the 80’s!
  2. You have one of these hanging in your coat closet:
  3. Your jeans are all stonewashed and will greatly lower your sperm count if worn.
  4. Your socks are of the tube variety and have 3 colorful stripes across the top.
  5. Shorts that will make Larry Bird and Magic Johnson proud!

Feel free to add to my list. Looking forward to your comments!

    I just did this too! I’m trying to update my wardrobe little by little. Unfortunately, nothing was comicly dated. It was either worn out or a little dated + I hadn’t worn it in a year.

    Great list, Kyle! I found myself laughing. It sure is nice to know that I’m not the only one in need of a wardrobe makeover! :)

    Thanks for the comment MM and Tish. With Halloween coming up, I just thought of a use for these fashion statements. Fortunately, my kids aren’t old enough yet to be embarrased by me!

    Ha, you crack me up with your lists. Keep em coming!

    So here’s mine–my husband says to me,

    “You know, I’ve come to realize that women really DO need to own more than just a pair of shoes. And…you can go shopping if you want. Like not just buy one shirt, but actually buy an outfit. Or two. Or more….”

    I guess if my DH notices I’m not hip to the jive and that my shoes don’t match my clothes, that maybe its time to rework the wardrobe.

    Love the picture of the 80’s half shirt, complete with the model throwing his hip out to the side a bit. :)
