Would you tell a stranger their jumper was inside out???

Actually I always tell someone if they have a garment on inside out, or a price tag showing for that matter [maybe they stole it . I'd want someone to do it for me rather then walking around looking like a lemon.

The late FIL , would never change his sweater if he had put it on inside out .
Said it would bring him bad luck !!!

I personally would not because it is not that important. If you did choose to say, then it would have to be done very politely as someone may take offense and then it all depends on where in the country you were, as South London is a bit more un friendly than other parts but has gotten much better in recent years.

glass Haven't heard the word haversack in years.

On the 24th April we can all knowingly wear our clothes inside out, as part of a campaign that commemorates the Rana Plaza factory disaster from a year ago. I'm up for it.

Walking into A & E at our local hospital, a lady rushed over to whisper to me that my skirt was caught in my knickers. I`m glad she told me before I walked any further in as there were quite a few men waiting!

Yes I would. its only being helpful.

minmouse I agree fully with your point about being of an age where I can laugh it off now. In my teens I would have been so embarrassed.

Also been to work with one brown and one black shoe, they were the same shoes but different colours.
My DD went to work with different shoes on a few years ago, one flat and the other with a 2 1/2 heel she was non the wiser until I phoned her and asked her to check her footwear

I once pulled up alongside a girl who had got off a bus and pulled her haversack onto her back and in the process had caught the back of her very short summer dress revealing her bare bot she thanked me and pulled her dress down with a shocked look on her face, she caused chaos with cars all over the road trying to see the view.

Wouldn't worry about an inside out jumper, but I have been to drop the DGC at school then went to Tesco all with my trousers inside out.

I accidentally get one particular cardigan inside out so often that I am almost afraid to wear it, and even when I wear things the right way out I have a very bed habit of having labels sticking out.

I give one-to-one lessons, and have lost count of the number of times I've only discovered my mistake hours after a lesson.

On one occasion, I discovered that I had been teaching with a clothes peg hanging from my cardigan. On another, I found that I must have given a lesson with blood all over my face, from a nose bleed earlier in the day.
Not one single time has a student (mostly adults) ever said a single word to me!!!

But would I say something to someone else in a similar situation? I honestly don't know. It would depend on the person, I think. When I was younger, I would definitely have kept quiet, but I am becoming far less reserved with age so might speak out!

My boss once pointed out that I had gone to work in odd shoes (the same style but one black, one navy).
Perhaps he had a shoe fetish, or more probably he was just very observant.

Giggle
Only happen to me !!!
Do I care?
Not on your Nelly.

I doubt if I would notice. I'm not very interested in what other people wear.

It would depend where I was. If I was in the street or a supermarket I probably would not, but if I was at a function I would probably mention it very quietly.

I wouldn't have minded if the waitress had told me but writing a note to DH to spare his embarrassment made me want to throttle her.

She obviously thought I wasn't safe to be out.

Oh Nonu....!

Hi there ATQUI you mention the same State, Are you American ?

Well thanks for your opinions and stories. I shall certainly say something discreetly if I see someone else in the same state, and from now on I will double check!

I wouldn't bother to tell anyone, and I wouldn't be in the least bit embarrassed if it happened to me. So unimportant.

I remember when I was Stateside 2/3 years ago, a lady coming up to me and saying "the zip on your trousers is down", I was pleased she mentioned it.

If my jumper was on inside out, I'd appreciate a discreet tap on the shoulder so I had the opportunity to sort it out. I was at an OU summer school and came out of the Ladies in the main chancellors building, crowded, and a kind soul nipped behind me to let me know my long skirt was tucked right up to my waist. I couldn't thank her enough. I'd have died a thousand deaths if I'd walked through the crowd looking like that. Mind, that was in the 80s - I'd laugh it off nowadays.

I wore my new jumper out for lunch this week. A kindly woman at a nearby table told me the labels were hanging down my back. I almost wished she hadn't, because she was much more embarrassed than I was. I said thanks, and she shoved the labels down my back - job done.

I walked up to a woman who had the back of her skirt hitched up into her waistband, and mentioned it. Her response wasn't embarrassment but one of appreciation. I'd certainly have appreciated it if someone had mentioned it to me.

It would depend on the look of the stranger and also the circumstances, but generally I am wary of telling strangers anything like that.
