sentence

You are not leaving the house dressed like that.

Is the sentence grammatically correct and idiomatic? Even if they live in an apartment and not a house?

Thanks!

Yes, an apartment-dwelling mama might say that, too. It is quite natural-- almost a keynote of American culture. Put an exclamation point at the end, though!
