Clothing can tell more about a character than written description. My series character dresses like a slob at home but he cleans up nicely in public. He's a former teen idol and for his concerts he wears tight leather pants and glitter shirts cause that's what real teen idols of that era wear (I have photos of Bobby Sherman in such an outfit!). In my last book I put him in a tux, which he hates, and he went to a costume party dressed as Robin Hood. Now that's style! Now I'm looking for an excuse to put him in a kilt.<br />Sally CarpenterSally Carpenterhttp://sandyfairfaxauthor.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6348734432793771357.post-79694536369202475722015-02-27T10:39:43.367-06:002015-02-27T10:39:43.367-06:00Susan, glad you can't see me now!

But its snowing and cold, and I'm comfortable. <br />Thanks, Angela.<br />Elaine--no pictures in books but if I ever get someone to draw Keisha, I'll put it on Facebook. Really not like the picture with this blog--more flowing chiffon, and of course a big girl, as in oversize.judyalterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13767466505891813090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6348734432793771357.post-87384726434718165832015-02-26T21:58:25.175-06:002015-02-26T21:58:25.175-06:00I really loved this.

For me, comfort usually wins out. Thanks for making me think about this more, Judy.

At my age, I put comfort before style, haven't word a skirt but a few times in years. I find in so many ways my characters reflect me.judyalterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13767466505891813090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6348734432793771357.post-50660457250984007322015-02-26T10:49:50.306-06:002015-02-26T10:49:50.306-06:00Hi Judy, loved this!

But I dress them in what I'd like to wear--if I were 50 pounds lighter and forty years younger, LOL. Skirts and silk tops for Amy Hobbes, the newspaper editor, and high couture for Maxie Gwenoch, the magazie VP who hangs around with vampires in The Kandesky Vampire Chronicles.Michele Drierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06944263184981732147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6348734432793771357.post-54188501401170836432015-02-26T09:45:36.195-06:002015-02-26T09:45:36.195-06:00Hi, Judy!

Classic. <br /><br />I wear t-shirts, jeans, plain white shirts, some skirts. I layer on a great sweater, jacket or scarf. But you know me, I have to have my FUN handbag.
