IS THIS THE FASHION THESE DAYS???


OK. So there I was, working over in Borehamwood and this young girl (late teens) got out of her Dad`s car wearing this. (As well as a denim jacket.) I know that I am not one for fashion, women`s fashion at that as I still am a man`s man who wears his tried and trusted combo of jeans and trainers. (Which isn`t that bad, just bad because "certain people" make it out to be bad. Hey, if you`re comfortable then go with the what you like.) But let`s not get into that debate just yet. Though I am starting to make a conscious effort to look older and more distinguished - i.e: shirts and smart looking shoes.

So anyway, all I could do was look at what she was wearing, because I could not believe it. Have we slipped back into the 80s again? Or is fashion merely rotating eras? I suppose that if you have the confidence to wear those sorts of things, then why shouldn`t you. I guess that we have because I could NOT find a decent looking shirt to wear in any of the shops downtown. WHY? I hear you ask, couldn`t I find a suitable looking shirt. I`ll tell you why, it`s because I simply don`t like the style of them. They look like they did back in the 80s and I am kinda glad that I didn`t have to wear them, but now... I don`t know. Maybe I am just so far behind in fashion that I am shocked about what is out there. (Says the man who had sported a mullet for decades, and now that mullet has been retired.)
