What do you not leave the house without? For me, earrings, cowboy boots, and mascara. |

My parents were very strict when we were growing up on us always looking our best whenever we went out.We were not allowed to wear blue jeans unless we were going to a football game. It stuck with me. Even if I'm not leaving the yard, I still put on makeup, fix my hair & dress appropriately, but nice!

I wouldn't leave without some makeup on, hair combed,clothes at least orderly. The ladies of my family have always believed in fixin' yourself up before going anywhere. As a funny side note, once when I had to go to the emergency room because I was really in pain (kidney stone), I STILL stopped to put on my makeup before going! LOL! Found out my Mom did too before she went there with me. My grandmother would have been proud.

| Ha, you southern girls are a crack up.... love it! I'd have to admit that I have never seen as many fellow 'big hair' kin as I witnessed during my last layover in Dallas/Fort Worth. |

That's right we love our big hair! We keep hair spray companies in business! If you don't do much farmgirl stuff, fake nails are desired as well.

Lipstick, comb and dressing nice. Might be jeans with a nice top or a skirt with the works :) But lipstick and a comb are 2 things I NEVER leave without.
And I ain't even a Southern gal, y'all :)

Earrings. I could have last night's mascara on, but I always put earrings in before I leave the house--hoops or dangles. I'm not sure why, but I feel like my face looks fat if I don't! (In my head)the length of the earrings somehow offsets my moonshaped face :)

As soon as I get up in the morning, I brush my hair and put it in a ponytail with a band that matches whatever I'm wearing. I wash my face and put on sunscreen and mascara. I have blond eyelashes so disappear if I don't wear my mascara! And five minutes in the sun, I'd be burned if I didn't put on my sunscreen. If I'm leaving the house I always have on a cute hat of some sort, almost always pink.

You gals are great! Giggle, I gave up make up quite some time ago. . . going with the natural look and only use the make up for an evening out with my guy. I always brush my hair and put it up nicely,put on clean clothes and put on my "town shoes". LOL!! Now. . . on occasion, I have left wearing my apron Makes me feel a little dressed up

Hmmmm....always have my lipstick, and my pocketknife, and yes, I have been guilty of going into town with my apron on. I think my brother thought I was a goof, but *giggle* I didn't care.

It's funny what we get used to wearing at home and will leave on to go to town! I haven't worn an apron to town yet, but I'm sure that day is coming. Especially since I have a new pattern I'm anxious to make.
My horse recently bolted and slammed me knee first into a tree, causing me all sorts of problems. For a few days my foot was even too swollen for shoes so I went around with my fuzzy pink horse house slippers on and short yoga pants because long pants hurt my knee. Hubby was trying to convince me to ride in one of the motorized shopping carts at Wal-Mart or the Grocery store. Uhm....NO! I did get lots of laughs from people about my horse slippers and sympathy for my extra dark purple, cut and swollen leg. Most people thought I had been in a car wreck. Hmmm, something like that, without air bags.

Owww. My horse recently slammed my knee into the gate post. I feel your pain. Hope it gets better soon. I always do something with my hair. Stopped wearing make-up about the time I met my first horse. They don't care if you are wearing make-up. I usually try to make sure my flip-flops match. I never leave home without my purse, my soda, a hat and my John Deere Hoodie. It is hot in Texas but the stores and restaurants are like the Arctic.

Oh Grace thank you for carrying a hankie ... so do I and people keep assuring me I'm the only one :) Now I can tell them it's me and Grace. I always have my purse, usually has a book in it, hair combed, chap stick on(Burt's Bees cocoa), shoes to fit the weather .... that's it I think

Well, now, it depends. If I don't have time for a shower, then I don't leave home without my Yankees cap on. If I was lucky enough to get a shower first, then I MUST blowdry my twisty, twirly, unruly bangs, and I put on eyeliner. My trusty purse always carries sunglasses and chapstick.

I am a dairy farmer, so makeup does not go on (especially at 3:30am :) but like now, while makin hay, sunscreen, sunglasses, and spf lip balm are a must! And since it is hay season, the field is really the only place I'm going ;)LOL!

I am with the other Grace - this Grace was taught not to leave without clean undies, a clean hankie. I also add I have to have my watch because I never wish to be late. A pair of earrings - my new one's are tiny silver stream line trailers. I also put on my Burt's Bee lipstick. My hair has to be just so although I am really wanting a haircut but do not trust anyone after the mess I got last time. Now that the weeds are blowing I might leave off the mascarea.
I also never leave without my purse and keys.

Dutchy is a farmgirl after my own heart! I adore pink! Anything pink. My iPod is pink too, phone, pocket knife, key chain, hats, gloves, tops, swimsuit, undies, pajamas, walls in my sewing room...gotta love that pink! I'm glad hubby doesn't mind so much. Even my male standard poodle, Thor, has a pink nylon collar with pink poodle designs on it. Hubby thinks I'm terrible subjecting my dog to a pink collar, but it's for me.

Must agree with the Grace & Grace - always clean undies and clean hair. Then chapstick, and if I'm really dressing up, a hankie. Because they are so pretty and feminine. Funny when you talk about make up. I have finally reached a point where I feel beautiful without it and am very comfortable not wearing any. I too have invisible eyelashes and know that mascara will enhance my eyes so I do wear it most of the time to work.

Leaving the farm, I always wash my face and hands, put on slacks, nice blouse, and shoes, comb my hair, grab my purse and go. Clean undies every morning 'cuz ya never know.

I am another gal that carries a hanky :)
I never leave without deodorant (Ha Ha) and lipstick. Unfortunately I get to put on my corporate clothes every day. I LOVE nothing more than a day at home in my slouch clothes, but I don't get them very often. |
