Pant-less…

I still have no idea how people honestly believe that they can get away with sporting a bedroom t-shirt as a dress? The question is beyond me and the answer is clearly yet to be discovered if I am writing of this absurd occurrence. It was a strange scene and one which I thought was quite a way of attracting attention, clearly it not being unwanted.
Sitting calmly, in my spot on the train, in Melbourne, this young foolish girl came bouncing in on my carriage with her trusty sidekick being her mobile glued to her ear yapping away. What was to follow next was a complete disaster. Despite embracing her arms, torso and back with a bright yellow, canary coloured, long cardigan, she had managed to completely ruin the cardi’s appeal with what she had decided to cover her legs with – or not to cover them with…
She had thrown on the oldest black t-shirt she owned which was positioned a good 20cm above her knee and a pair of black ballet flats. Black stockings filled the gap between the bottom of the t-shirt - not dress - and footwear. Horrid I tell you! Clearly the poor thing had forgotten to put on pants at 2pm on a Wednesday afternoon! It looked really quite skanky, distasteful and quite grotesque.
It got to the point where if you unfortunately were required to turn around to face the door of the train carriage (which was the exit point of being witness to a really shocking fashion issue), you could actually see the top area of the black stockings (being the bit that is present above the thigh and not meant to be visible at any time by anyone in public).
Perhaps if the t-shirt was not so dull, had a pattern on it, was a touch longer (and minus the holes) as well as the young offender wearing the darkest pair of opaque stockings ever produced, she may have gotten away with it but in this case it was downhill all the way. She could have opted for leggings as opposed to the see-through stockings and spared us all an involuntary glimpse of repulsiveness.
