{May 21, 2008}   Menswear Blunder!

This looks like a school-boy outfit gone wrong!

First of all, those are manpris (man capris), which are the worst thing to hit fashion ever.  I can understand mens shorts when it’s maybe hot out, and you’re walking around, but in the name of fashion, NEVER.  And the fact that they are slim-cut makes them worse.  I have no problem with the blazer and scarf but combined with the rest of the outfit it looks funny.  Mostly, I want to talk about the SOCKS.  God.  Knee high socks with long shorts?  I can’t think of anything worse.  It looks like something a guy would wear when he’s 9 and goes to catholic school.

I’m with ya on this one. A couple other things to mention…

I’m fine with the bermuda shorts here. I could even give a pass off on the jacket – if it had a t-shirt under it. But it’s a wool sweater. A WOOL sweater and a scarf.

Look, if it’s cold enough for a wool sweater and a jacket and a scarf, why are you wearing bermuda shorts? And then there’s the argyle socks thing – and the bermuda shorts and boots – even if he did have lower socks… WTF?

Pick a season – don’t dress winter top half, summer middle, and autumn bottom. It’s season confusion completely – or the “I’m not homeless but like to look like a homeless guy in expensive clothing” look they’re going for here.

Oh – and because you didn’t mention it – what’s up with that huge mondo I never brush my hair and don’t own a mirror wig on this model – YIKES!!
