On my way into a newish job, it's in an office so was deliberating on what to wear due to hot weather and them not having the best air con but so far so happy with my choice when some teenager (I think) interrupting what looked like some sort of dodgy deal as I walked past say to his mate "don't worry it's just some slag" and it's totally brought me down.

I'm embarrassed to even feel bothered about it but even more annoyed that I let it get to me.

For reference I'm wearing a midi skirt and vest top not that it should matter.

Its sounds like they were just using 'slag' to mean 'woman' not referencing your clothing. I doubt they even noticed what you were wearing.

Don't give them anymore of your time

I agree, they use the term to mean ‘woman’. Nice.

I doubt it was anything to do with your outfit or you personally. That's just how some rank boys and men refer to women. Little weasels.

Thanks all, I've been so busy at work since that I haven't given it a thought.

Dont let it bother you, easier said than done I know.
