Not quite a poll, but opinions solicited

Topic: how clothing makes us feel. I was hanging laundry out on the line this morning and contemplating my over-alls. I feel sexy when I'm wearing my over-alls. When I put on some clothing that society, or even my social circle, would call 'sexy', I just feel fat, and not sexy at all. When I put on my riding clothes, i stand straighter, and have more self-confidence.

So what do different types of clothing do to you?

Heavy wool socks make me feel cozy and safe.

Pants without useful pockets make me feel marginalized.

Boots with heels make me feel confident, as long as they don't screw with my balance. But I quickly get annoyed if they are uncomfortable on my feet.

Restrictive clothing makes me feel dehumanized.

Heavy footwear or shoes with thick souls make me feel loud and clumsy.

Synthetic officewear makes me feel like I'm only wearing a costume to make it look like I'm wearing clothes.

Wool pants with synthetic lining make me feel homocidal.

Hats make me feel fully attired.

Linen makes me feel well-dressed.

Silk satin makes me feel like the sexiest thing ever.
