Day: January 7, 2022

I am eagerly awaiting the delivery of more golf pants. Until more show up, I’ve been experimenting with the one pair I have. This outfit was a hit at Harmon’s this morning. Apparently, if you’re wearing golf pants while grocery shopping, people want to nod at you like they know you. At least, that was my experience today. Later, I had to run an errand at Walmart. As is usual, at Walmart—no matter what I wear—I am usually the most flamboyant dresser in the store (though not in a People of Walmart sort of way). Such was the case at Wally’s today. Score!

Tie o’ the Day is covered in patterned patches of paisley, in rich blue hues. I threw blues all over me today just because I felt like it. I am convinced I have always felt a solid kinship with various shades of blue because they are the first colors I learned to love: When I was a wee babe, I fell into an abiding love with the blue hues of my parents’ eyes. 👀

I’ve been feeling a bit “meh” about my style lately. I’ve been feeling the need to make a drastic change. Like the Baby Boomer that I am, I have been—and will always be—a jeans chick at heart. Jeans are my uniform. Jeans are my second skin: I am at home in a worn pair of Levi’s. But my legs have been itching for the occasional foray into new territory. I am always happy to oblige my legs, since they do such a fine job of getting me hither and yon. And so I spent some time scouring the websites for new and exciting pants. I wanted something off-beat and zany, of course—to not-fit in with the rest of my wardrobe. After a relatively short search, I found exactly what I was aiming for. I found loud pants. And how did I discover them so quickly? Well, the late Payne Stewart came to my mind. I googled the term “golf pants” and I was directed to the equivalent of Loud Pants Heaven—as in, a boatload of sites selling eye-catching golf trousers.

Red hanky-esque Tie o’ the Day is proud to present my very first ever pair of official golf pants. Yes, I have ordered more. The eye-catching, eye-assaulting new possibilities have jump-started my fashion passion, and my neighborhood will never be the same. 2022 “clashion” is gonna be sweet. As a precaution, please wear shades. 😎
