Or do you just go out the door as you are. For a casual shopping trip, just to the superemarket or something, or to run out for fast food.

Do you put on different clothes, or straighten your hair, or put on makeup, or just go as you are?

Myself, I always put on long, pants, a button shirt, and proper shoes, even if I'm just going to the ATM, or to the office to pay the rent. I'm very old fashioned about things like that. If nothing else, I feel like I place myself in a position to get more serious consideration from shop employees.

(Moderator, please do not move this thread to Fashion. Obviously, everyone there probably does, and I'm looking for opinions of people who do not care enough about fashion to frequent that narrow subforum.)

I have to, because I basically live in pajamas when I'm home. But, I just throw on jeans and a t-shirt and the cursed bra, run a brush through my hair and put on lipstick. Nothing fancier than that just to run around doing errands.

Most people these days in the USA dress casually and shop that way too.

I always put on pants to go shopping.

I need the pockets to carry my wallet, phone, and car keys.

Sometimes way too casual! Some look like people of Wal-Mart...

I love pajamas. I don't sleep in them...just wear them around the house.

I just go casually (I dont see a point in dressing up (I find it hard to find clothes I like the feeling of to begin with))

When I go out I'm dressed decently. That means a shirt with a collar and pressed pants as well as being shaved, bathed, and have a good haircut. That's for going anywhere.

T-shirts and shorts are for five-year-olds.

We-ll, I am usually in a Tac shirt, jeans, boots, tee, socks, undies, and bush hat anyway when I am away from the ranch, but it is usually not for the standard of dressing up but rather my way of dealing with the elements. Sweat is better than sunburn....or worse.



Further, shopping usually comes on trips to work for 10 miles one way out of town is too far not to make trips efficient.
