Then, one day you'll just step outside wearing the item without a thought.

This method has got me out of my flat looking like one of those mad old biddy Victorian lady explorers complete with pith helmet, and travel thus on public transport to a Steampunk get-together. Wear with confidence, and no-one will say a durned thing negative, is my experience.

Hope that helps!

Great advice. I think homoe should go for it.
