    I'm in much the same position. With this years rock/music theme, I plan to wear my blue denim jeans (which wouldn't normally be allowed at school, as the kids aren't allowed them, so will be wrong), a white tee shirt and my new black leather Harrington style jacket. The overall effect should be like a fat "Fonz".
    The acquisition of wealth is no longer the driving force in my life. :)

    Hows about any trousers you wouldn't normally wear out of the house?

    charity shop gets my vote - you can do what you like to them without worrying about spoiling them - and when you've finished you can return them to the charity shop and they can sell them on again - so they raise money twice for charity :-)
    I'm a retired employment solicitor. Hopefully some of my comments might be useful, but they are only my opinion and not intended as legal advice.
  • Thanks so much for all the ideas.

    Im going to wear my jeans inside out. I cannot afford to even buy a pair from a charity shop as i do not have any spare cash at all, i know where only talking a couple of pounds, but i have £0.

    And making some is definately out of the question, no money or anything to make them from.
