cotton, preferably my thin very very soft cotton pj's. They are a joy to have next to my skin. I also wear them when I'm really up, or anywhere in between. I honestly hate leaving the house at least in part because I have to change out of them and put on a *gasp* bra. I have four pairs in different colors and they are my main incentive to do laundry on a regular basis.If I must go out, I have several identical J Jill soft soft cotton turtlenecks that are my winter uniform. I need to find the summer equivilant.
(Are you guys picking up that I always buy several of what I like in different colors?)

Well, I've got some but they don't fit anymore. :( I adore Karen Alexander dresses. They were just right for my (old) body type. Tall and long waisted. And the skirts were always those circle skirts that swish so sensuously against your legs as you walk. But I don't think she makes them in my current size. So come to think of it, I don't need anything in my wardrobe. I need my body back to its old size.
