I was at work today having a smoke out back with a few of my female co-workers.  It's starting to get warm here, so I needed some short sleeve shirts for work.  Men have to wear collared shirts.  We have the option of wearing tailored shirts that you have to tuck in, or shirts that are cut square at the bottom that you don't tuck in.  Well this woman commented that she liked my shirt, and I laughed. I told her that, I bought a really comfortable camp shirt last year from Cubavera.  So I found a website and bought the same shirt in 8 different colors.  She laughed and said, that's definitely a "man thing."

Which I suppose it is.  I do the same thing with lots of clothing.  I found a pair of slacks I liked, and bought the same pair in 4 different colors.  I found a pair of shoes that I absolutely love.  They are the most comfortable shoe I've ever worn.  So I bought a black and brown pair.  I am just picky, and I stick to things that I like.  Plus, I am not much of a fashion slave.  I know I am not the only person that does this.  Anyone do similar things, or even find something wrong with it?

I do that, just not to that degree . I found a nice shirt at Dillards that fits well, so I got a couple in different colors... it's hard for me to find shirts that fit, so when I do, I try to get more than one.

I tend to buy mens shirts (and sometimes slacks, for work) because they're cheaper...LOL

Why do you buy different colors?

i wish i could do that!  i can't find mens shirt that will fit me.  my company every year buys several shirts for each employees but they are mens shirts so i have to  politely decline because they are so ill fitting on me...too tight in the chest, too big in the shoulders, it's frustrating!
If you would leave the top three or four buttons unbuttoned it would be less confining.
Not to mention the boost to the moral of your male co-workers and the chagrin and envy of your less endowed female co-workers. 


OP, the only thing i usually buy the same thing of in quantity  is t-shirts....like 15 at a time, 5 or 6 being white....
Having perved your profile I will take this opportunity to loose myself in a moment of reverie.

Good point. I doubt this concerns you, hunky, but bras are a great thing to buy in multiples. If a bra fits, I'll get three of them - 'cos bra buying's a pain in the arse .
