wearing make up on weekend

| If I'm just staying around the house - sweats, sloppy t-shirt, no shoes, no makeup. If I'm going out in public - jeans, a nicer t-shirt, slip-on loafer style mules, small hoop earrings, foundation or powder, eyeliner and sheer lipstick. I usually buy some new t-shirts each spring that I keep nice and save for going out of the house. I keep crappier ones for lounging around in, and doing yard and house work. If one of the new ones gets stained during the year, it becomes one of next year's crappy t-shirt. |

You are unkind. People should dress in a manner that shows respect for their surroundings, even on weekends. |

I don't even know what this means. I respect the surroundings of my home more than anyplace else, but I'm sure as hell not going to doll up just to lounge around. If I'm going to a play or a nice dinner I'll dress up a bit (no makeup - I never wear it), but the grocery store? Target? Home Depot? The dump? What does it mean to "dress to respect" these places? I just don't see the point in dolling up to run errands, and I certainly don't see that as being disrespectful of the *stores* I may visit! |

Is that where you go on weekends? No, of course you can wear what you want there. I would too. We go to museums, to brunch, to concerts... in those places, people dressed for a trip to WalMart stand out. |

| Same PP-- of course, too many visitors to the Mall's museums don't dress appropriately. I do think this shows a lack of respect for the city and the cultural institution. |

Yes, that is where I go on weekends, because I work long hours and don't have time to run errands during the week. You may note that I did say that if I'm going to a play or a nice dinner I do dress up. I would do the same for a concert (if, say, the symphony -- not if I'm going to the 9:30 club), or a *nice* brunch. I don't dress up for museums, and I don't think it's inappropriate not to. But if I were going to a special function at a museum (e.g., a lecture, a fundraiser, etc.), I would dress up. Just out of curiosity, what do you think constitutes appropriate dress for a museum? |

Lip stick all times and nothing else.
I feel nude w/o my lip sticks. |

NP here. You know, some weekends I might find myself going to Target AND to brunch. Or to the grocery store AND to a museum. Or to walk the dog around the block AND to a concert. What is one to do? I have always felt such deep confliction over what to wear to these, such differing events. On the one hand, I do so hate to make the little people at Target or Safeway feel bad. I will surely stand out if I wear my lovely brunch-museum dresses that so beautify our streetscape. On the other hand, I would never dare to besmirch the aesthetics of the Smithsonian or a cafe with my Safeway clothes. What a conundrum. |

| I LOVE Philosophy's the Supernatural which is a tinted foundation primer/sunblock. Easy application with just your fingers and then mascara to follow. Takes all of 2 minutes and makes a huge difference. |

I'm rolling my eyes at the pretentious poster along with everyone else, but I do have to admit that it was a little nicer in the olden days when everyone on the plane didn't dress like a bum... |

"You are unkind. People should dress in a manner that shows respect for their surroundings, even on weekends."
I can see this with respect to church or court. The M/mall, hmmm... |
