This evening I went with a friend to see the new Tom Hanks movie Angels and Demons, staring Tom Hanks and Tom Hanks. As we were exiting the theatre I was finally introduced to one of the most legendary and awe inspiring sights of my life. I beheld a woman in the most amazing purple moo moo I have ever seen in my life. Okay it may be the only moo moo I have ever seen in my life, but it was pretty damn amazing. The only thing which would have made it more amazing is if it had been worn with matching purple Crocs.
I relate this because, in all honesty, I saw the simple construction of the garment and immediately thought, “wow that must be comfortable.” This took me aback because not only are moo moos notoriously part of urban lore for their hideousness, but this particular moo moo was very purple. And still, I just thought to myself, wow that does look comfortable. I give the woman who wore that generally questionable garment props for doing what felt right. Even though some item of clothes or other status objects we wear or use are not the best (or even considered widely to be the worst), anyone can make anything work for for them by owning it, rocking the look, and enjoying yourself the whole time. If you work it well enough you may even get people to like it, case in point.
(No, I will not purchase or buy a moo moo under any circumstances. I’m just saying.)
