Perfect!
Not wearing yet, but I will soon:
There’s just the slightest baby blue stripe running through that shirt, to match those shorts.
I’m not sure if I can wait until next laundry day* to wear these. I may have to do some emergency washing so I can get into these tomorrow or Monday.
*Posting about laundering new clothes and posting that dismal scrambled egg is really just my attempt to draw Morning Glory out for a comment!

Lovely outfit. That reminds me of my daughter, sometimes she just HAS to wear this or that...accompanied by some fiery words,gestures or both...I usually don't mind the extra washing, but the frenzy, or the hour...01 a.m. is not fun...

Casual tights, brownish,and a simple black cotton T shirt. Barefoot with plastic Birkenstock slides. Trying to support my arches whenever I can.
Got a great deal on the slides last summer. And I actually fell in love not only with the comfort, but with the colour, too: bright yellow.
Very sunny, 28c today,beautiful day.
An older pic, just for the slides...

Here’s how that goes at our house:
“I’m gonna hafta wash these so I can wear them tomorrow!”
“You are NOT running the washer for two pieces of clothing!”
<15 minutes later, washing machine kicks on>
“DID YOU JUST START LAUNDRY?!”
“I, uh, spilled some, um, orange juice, er, and I needed to wash the shirt I was wearing, yeah, uh…
“

exactly, exactly, the whole machine for a shirt and leggings is what tipps me off, and I always add, put some other stuff for washing( on repeat for x times a year), and she does find an excuse, but I have NOthing to wear tomorrow,I HAVE to was these...Or I am asleep and she has her way.
I have to laugh at this:
I’m cutting the tags off my clothes, and I love this - “Your old man shorts are hep with the youth culture, Grandad!”

Hey, at least she knows how to run the machine.T
Or I am asleep and she has her way.
My husband a few times had to wash a small load of laundry and I suggested throwing in our towels off the shower rack to make it a fuller load, so he did. He also got into the habit to ask if I want my jeans or denim capris washed, because I will sometimes wear those a few days before washing. But then one day he decided to throw the soft cloth throw rugs we keep by the door in with a load of bath towels and I caught him after the fact. I probably did my version of yelling at him (which sometimes any form of criticism is interpreted as yelling) and explained to him that little particles and pieces of grass or other things will come off in the washer and stick to the towels, which won't feel very nice when drying off after the shower, and he thought I was overreacting...until he pulled the towels out of the dryer and saw all of the stuff that was stuck to the terry cloth. It took several washings to dislodge the stuff and make the the towels suitable for drying skin again.

Yes, you are right. She does know. Amd improving constantly, by doing it more and more...
And you were right about the sticking stuff
.but it does not run smoothly with our washes/taKing out the washed clothes on time either...sometimes she will go to sleep, indulging in the latest make up trends and influencer explanations of bronzing the cheeks and what not, forgetting about the machine load, until next midday, roughly 12 hours...of wet clothes closed off . So they must be re-washed...and taken out sooner
To be honest, that happens to me too, but I get up earlier and save the laundry earlier on.
And less often,I'd dare to say.
