    Yeppers!  I have totally done this before both with shirts *and* skirts . . . I forgot my undies once under a skirted suit because I was so preoccupied with preparing for a hearing that I just plain forgot.  >.<  I, too, have forgotten my bra - I was wearing a cami under a blouse and managed to forget my bra.  *sigh* I had to walk very deliberately to control the *bounce*.

    I have also forgotten my bra once when I was wearing a camisole/blouse combo.  I walked very deliberately to try to control the *bounce*!

    I forget deoderant alot... I normally remember on the way to work and stop by the grocery store, which leaves me with 3 or 4 deoderants open at a time. I've taken to keeping a stick in my purse!

    Lol! Distracted today, EJS?

    I once went to work without a spot of makeup on and I *never* go out of the house without makeup. My boss started talking to me, got really close up and peered into my face confusedly and then turned around without finishing the conversation.

    @cheerful, LOL. I was sitting here going, "well at least i put makeup on today". I've forgotten mascara before, but never a full face!

    The office is fluctuating between insanely hot and kinda nippy. im doing the indiscreet wrist rub to check myself, lol.

    i have a sports bra in the car.....SIGH. I'm wondering if there's a Kohl's or Target nearby for my lunch break =(

    Ejs, I've totally done that! I hate shelf bras, they might work if you have an A chest, but they're awful besides that. I wore a tank with a shelf bra and a cardi on top, and forgot to wear a bra. I was so self-conscious all day! 

    I've also forgotten mascara. I actually ran out on my lunch break and bought cheap drugstore mascara because I was so horrified, haha! I had eyeliner and shadow on but no mascara for half the day.

    I've never done that before, at least you had a shelf bra. I clicked on the title because I feel the smae way today, I am wearing lt. yellow tights. I bought them as a joke the week of Halloween and nevere ended up wearing them. I was getting dressed and bored with black tights so I threw them on but after a few hours I regretted that decision and wish I had a pair of pants in my office so I can change before my evening class.

    Oh my god that's too funny!

    I don't think I have ever forgotten a bra but once I forgot to ONE eye of make-up! Ya I did one - got distracted because my dog puked - stopped to clean it up - was running late so I just ran out of the house!

    The worst thing - no one said anything!!!! I am blonde so the lacking on black eyeliner and mascara is OBVIOUS!!!!! I noticed when I went to the bathroom a few hours after getting to work and had to wash all them make-up of the one eye so I at least matched!

    Keeping my fingers crossed for your temperature to stay warm!

    It's getting chilly in my office. I'm really not happy with this! If i put my down jacket on, i will look silly. So, i have decided to go to Kohl's in 3 hours. Sigh. Even though i get off work at 3pm, lol. I know I said i needed a new bra yesterday, so I guess it's a good reason to go buy one, HA!

    @slicey, i don't think yellow tights are that bad! Unless you're asian, then maybe not such a good color space. Pretty sure I don't own one single item of yellow. No wait, i own one light yellow and white skirt.

    @KMSull -- I've done that with deodorant, too -- I feel so much better knowing I'm not the only one! 

    I also occasionally put outfits together that I think look okay and then get to work and am like, "wtf?!"  I blame it on being forced to dress myself before I've had enough coffee!

    I"ve done the whole foundation and blush and forget to put on the rest of my makeup thing.

    I drive to work in sneakers cause I drive a manual and can't shift in my work shoes. I've forgotten my shoes before and the whole day i try to keep my feet under my desk, or walk quickly where ever i'm going so no one notices.

    MissACS    March!  

    I forget deodorant. There was a week last summer where I forgot it so many times (and kept eating pickles for lunch) that my best friend was like "Is... there something you want to tell me?"  Nope! Just a moron who enjoys salt! So I bought a travel size and keep it in my desk drawer.

    I've forgotten mascara and thought "Wow I look really washed out today. I hope I'm not getting sick" all day long until I do my eyemakeup routine at the end of the night and realize I never put mascara on. Doh.

    These weird forgetful things, at least on my part, are because I'm preoccupied with something else major going on or I am not sleeping.

    I'm a major morning spazz...I feel your pain oh too often it seems (deoderant, mascara, having a small velcro curler stuck in the back)!  Once I did the shelf bra/forgetting the real bra thing.  Yeah, and I'm kinda busty, so it was a major I'm and Idiot moment.  Luckily I think they're one of my better assets and you couldn't tell even when I walked.  Yeah, I totally got home cried and walked across the room back and forth swearing FI to tell me if he could notice....

    I did this once, ejs4y8, so you're not alone.  A couple of summers ago, I was getting ready for work.  I was really sleepy and for some unknown reason, I forgot to put on a bra.  I got all the way to work and sat at my desk for a few minutes before I realized what was wrong.  I was wearing a dark colored shirt, but it was still pretty noticable, at least to me.  I ended up confessing to my boss (a woman, thank goodness) who suggested I just run home and remedy the problem!

    When I was little I had nightmares that I would get to school and find out that I had forgotten my shoes.  And of course it was always the day that we were running on gravel in PE.

    Where's 50??? She needs to chime in here in case anyone doesn't know about her forgetting to wear pants! LOL

    I've worn stuff backwards, and forgotten makeup, but nothing too crazy. I did used to have this nightmare - more than once - that I would forget to wear a shirt (or bra!) to high school. And somehow I wouldn't realize it until I was sitting at my desk in class and suddenly be like OH SH*T!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! haha

    It would be a disaster if I forgot my bra-- the ladies are HUGE and I'd have to be high or something to not realize they were missing that crucial support!

    Your stories are hilarious, though-- I want to hear the missing pants story!

    I've done the deoderant thing.  Also, the other day I left for work and got to my car before I realized, "hey, I can't see anything."  Woops!  Forgot I needed glasses/ contacts!

    Today, I forgot to brush my teeth. I was getting ready and my sister-in-law called and I was talking to her and I ate breakfast, ran out the door to grab my train, sat down on the train, ran my tongue over my teeth.  Haha.... I can't believe I forgot!

    Oh goodness, that's so uncomfortable!  I've forgotten really essential stuff, just not the bra.  I work for a city government office so we need to be professionally dressed, especially if we go to a court room.  I walk to work so I wear my sneaks then switch into heels when I get here.  I'm sure you know where this is going... needless to say my boss had a disapproving look or two when she saw the skirt suit and nike shocks... oops!  I usually forget my deodorant, yuck, so now I have a lil travel size one in my purse because I don't even wanna be the smelly girl lol.

    I've had my undies inside out a few times. Not such a big deal, but throws me off a little lol Never forgot a bra, but i've thought about how much that would suck! I don't have big boobies, but even if I had a gigantic sweater and snowpants or something, I'd still totally feel nekkid! I did get a hole in my jeans once on my inner thigh. I wasn't too comfortable about that but it could have been worse. At least I didn't have to be out long!
