Would you judge me?

I’m being a little vague (deliberately) please forgive me.

My husband is going for what equates to an interview.

I’ll also be visible to the interviewers.

If I was wearing an LV scarf and carrying a mulberry or LV bag too would you judge me negatively?

Sorry I know it’s a weird scenario!

@PlainJaneEyre

Do you work yourself *@Sexnotgender* ? A vicar's salary doesn't extend to expensive bags and scarves. It all sounds very antiquated I have to say.
I do work. Don’t worry, I pay for all my own things.

It actually makes me a cringe a bit as well - as if he has to have THE perfect little woman at his beck and call. I don't know if I would want my family involved in such an institution.

Shows you how much I know about vicars wives, I'd have expected a beige twinset and sensible brogues with a stiff grey bob 😁

Don’t vicars get free housing? And no council tax. The only vicar I know has a wife who rubs a lucrative business, they’re absolutely fricken loaded, multiple horses, trust me they’re living the life.

PlainJaneEyre · 01/04/2022 21:43

The Mrs always has to be there for all the parental things and music concerts.

SirChenjins · 01/04/2022 21:44

Is the parish ready for such a thing? Wink

Are you actually reading the thread or just dribbling whatever random nonsense comes into your head?

I’m not “branding up” for the interview. It’s what I wear/use most days and I’m trying to decide if I should not.

TBH I doubt very much if the interviewers will notice or care what brand or designer clothes/accessories you are wearing, so just wear what you feel comfortable with.

Yes they do.

Definitely not loaded!

No judgment from me Op , you can have whatever bag you like !

PeacefulPottering · 01/04/2022 21:46

Keep up Plain!!
It was me who guessed OPs hubby was a vicar😊 we just need to help her out now with brogues or her Jimmy Shoes 👍

Gonnagetgoing · 01/04/2022 21:46

I’d judge you for sounding such a pita.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 01/04/2022 21:47

I'd think the scarf was a bit naff. Would notice the bag but have no real opinion on it. Worn together, I'd think you were maybe showing off a bit tbh.

TheHoptimist · 01/04/2022 21:47

No-one is going to notice a mulberry bag- its the bag of choice of most 15 year olds these days

Laptopsandmouses · 01/04/2022 21:48

Honestly I’d think you were a bit of a twat and feel sorry for your Husband

JesusMaryAndJosephAndTheWeeDon · 01/04/2022 21:48

Knew it would be a vicar.

Don't worry about it, my mate who is a vicar's wife wears all kinds of stuff on official duty. DMs, band t-shirts, stripey tights, purple hair the lot.

@PeacefulPottering nope I think Loubous are perfect for this, what with the red sole. Unless it means the aisle would explode in flames upon being stepped on in red soles.

Our vicar has been suspended for fucking.
arethereanyleftatall · 01/04/2022 21:49

You do you op, but I have absolutely no idea what brand my back pack is. I have different ones, which I choose depending on their size and what they need to carry. I honestly think there is a very very small minority of people who would know or care what a mulberry back pack is.
