About the Holiday

Originating from the 1970s sitcom "Three's Company" from character Larry Dallas Wear Something Gaudy Day is a day to standout in the crowd. Merriam-Webster.com defines gaudy as "too bright and heavily decorated, tastelessly ornamented marked by extravagance or sometimes tasteless showiness". So today pull out of your closet outdated, brightly colored, wild pattered, or tasteless attire. If you don't have any visit a local thrift store.
