Lose the goatee, Tubby; and other free personal makeover advice

Piggly Wiggly - I just inhaled iced tea. :smiley:

Sweetened, of course, y’all.

Well, I did say “claims” to be a dress shirt.

Guilty, as charged.

I would apparently be the best dressed mo-fo in town.

On an unrelated note, straight men DO NOT wear pink shirts. One CAN buy a Pink shirt. The shirt is named after the designer (Thomas Pink), it is not the color, which is “light red”.

I like wearing whatever is in style at the moment so I’m currently a big fan of long, shapeless, pastel-colored t-shirts and short denim skirts with tights underneath. However, I think I would look even better by adding some big white cotton socks crumpled up around my ankles. What is your opinion?

You should accessorize with the socks *only *if you tie a big knot in the hem of the t-shirt, off to one side.

The ensemble you describe went out of fashion AT LEAST 18 minutes ago. You have to get with the times, girl or boy! Lick your finger and stick it in the air … do you not feel the prevailing Winds of Fashion Change?

The crumpled-up cotton socks should be PURPLE, not white.

Funnily enough, theCalgary Stampede and Rodeo had as its theme this year
“Are You Tough Enough To Wear Pink?” in support of the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation. Surely all these tough cowboys must be straight, right? Who’s ever heard of gay cowboys? Oh, wait…

It only counts if they eat pudding.

Oh good grief. Yes, a straight man can wear a pink dress shirt.

But if his favorite movie is Evita, don’t trust the fact that you’ve dated him for 3 years. He’s totally fucking gay.

:smiley:

So just for clarity:

Not Gay

Gay

Or are pink Pink shirts gay? I’m so confused…

NOW you tell me.

And they go so beautifully with manpris.

I love manpris! I wear them to work every day. Actually, my manpris bit the dust, and I patched them with fabric that doesn’t match, and now I can’t wear them to work. Management tells me that it looks like my underwear’s showing :rolleyes: So now I just buy them in the women’s department instead. I have two more pairs coming to me courtesy of kohls.com as we speak.

Well, if you’re feeling lazy, you can get one of those patented plastic t-shirt knot things - yet another accessory you can Bedazzle!

However, Pink does sell pink men’s shirts. Several different varieties of pink, in fact. Not to mention the pink checked boxers.

So don’t let msmith’s post confuse you. You can buy Pink shirts, but you still can’t buy pink Pink shirts.

Advice-giver Sauron, I am an active type who likes to wear wool hiking socks with hiking sandals in everyday life. I am told this is highly uncool.

Maybe it is, but do I not get bonus manpoints for having braved grizzlies, thirst, and wicked-steep mountains to gain my fashion proclivity?

Do I not scream masculinity with this faux pas!?

Same here. Maybe if I wore cargo pants/shorts–which I hate anyway–then I wouldn’t need to keep my blackberry on my belt, but as it is, it’s staying there.

sauron, if I may jump in here?

Young actresses, if you are going on a major talk show, don’t wear short dresses with empire waists. Yes, I’m talking to you Hayden Panatierre (sp?). An uncomfortable amount of your back upper thigh was exposed to us, the viewers, during your recent appearance on the Letterman show.

Really. Just Really.

I’m a 16 year old girl, 5’8", and 135 pounds. Is that fat? Just because I’m not skeletal does not mean I am obese. (I just don’t get why ‘fat’ is the main insult between teenage girls.)
Also, do guys like tall girls? Because I’m taller than most of my peers.

No, that isn’t fat, but different girls can look very different with the same height and weight - a 5’8", 135 pound girl may look like a track star - taut muscle on an athletic frame, if that’s her build. Or, if she’s carrrying 135 on a frame made for 110, she may look a little paunchy. Bone and muscle structure vary hugely.

ETA: I like tall girls just fine, but I tend to feel awkward (I think the girls probably do too) if they’re taller than me. I’m 5’9".
