What Kind of Clothing Do You Remember Wearing?

Another question for your story:
What kind of clothing do you remember wearing?
 I remember having to wear dresses to school.  The average length of the dresses was to the middle of the knee until my last couple of years in high school when mini skirts became the fashion.  Short dresses can be cold in the winter. I didn't want to wear shorter dresses the to the knee because it would be cold and I would have to worry about being too revealing.  I still wear dresses for some things like church and weddings and funerals and other special occasions, but I wear longer skirts now.  When I sit I don't have to worry about how I am sitting.  I don't have to tug and pull to make sure my skirt isn't too revealing.  I remember the first time I wore pants was for a trip to an amusement park.  Then there were gymnastics in school where girls were told to wear pants.  For every day things now I wear pants.  I wear tops that don't have too low or wide of necklines.  Although I may not be fashionable, I am comfortable.  I am grateful to be able to dress comfortably.
Do you remember wearing certain types of clothing?  Did you wear anything embarassing or uncomfortable?  How did you feel about it?  Why do you chose to wear the kind of clothing you do now?  Were there any special clothes that you wore at some time in your life?  Writing about the kind of clothing you wore is an important part of your life story.
