Did you ever base the outfit you wear to Mass off of the liturgical colors?

I was just picking my outfit for Mass tonight and was going to wear a violet colored shirt, and then I remembered it's Gaudate Sunday, and I decided to change to a rose shirt. I'm such a dork. :ph34r:

Is anyone else guilty?

I caught myself doing the same thing . . . I noticed it was a lot more prevalent among the ladies than the men . . . although one guy had a fire engine red sweater - which I would have thought was just a tad off . . . liturgically speaking . . .

Or anywhere close to Pittsburgh even if its across the state line. lol

I never think to coordinate my colors with the liturgical season. Heck, most of the time I forget to wear green on St. Patty's day, if I end up wearing it its by sheer coincidence. One year my friends and I decided to wear black on Fridays during Lent (thats the only time I ever intentionally did something like that) and St. Patrick's day fell on a friday. Some people got MAD at us and asked if we were anti-St. Patrick's day. lol We had just completely forgotten and gone on with our Friday "ritual."

uh huh...except I think we are talking about a different team....the 5:30 Mass was PACKED and the 9:00 Mass was EMPTY....people wore Jersey's to the 5:30

I was not the only one dressed for the color, another choir member was dressed in rose and black like me.
