whilst 'getting' a coffee today from a pareticular coffee place I noted a rather boorish chap in his late thirties 'yah-ing' away to another quite dull person in the queue and noted that not only did he have a t shirt tucked into jeans but he was also not wearing a belt - is it me or is that the most awful 'look' anyone has ever had - can anyone beat this in terms of fashion faux pas?

I can't comment on that
but really - he looked in the mirror and though "this makes me look good" and then left the house to meet his equally crass coffee drinking companion?
this thread = petty, shallow shite
I thought it was quite funny.
maybe so
but it pissed me off. i suppose i just shouldn't post in it or something. but prole is clever and should dislike and take the piss out of people for better reasons than this.
"shallow" is a bit harsh
i mean, c'mon, it's hardly a ho_fo thread, is it? ;D
belts
are to hold your trousers up if they are a bit too loose for you. if your trousers fit well, why should you wear a belt?
so i can't see anything wrong with that.
socks with sandles is quite awful
but alot of poeple seem to like it.
god
i can only imagine that they looked like martin 'men behaving badly' clunes and jeremy clarkson
I've just bought a really nice suit
but it's slightly brown. Can I wear blakc shoes with it if I wear a black belt?
HELP.
read american psycho
lol
Its just a hideous look
I have to say that I wear a belt if my 'jeans' fit properly or not - why have belt hoops - and anyway, tucking your t shirt in just looks wrong - they were also quite high waist type jeans as well - ugh.
i maybe agree on tucking your t shirt in
but wearing a belt if you don't need one is silly. what if you urgently need to piss? it adds to your prick-obtaining time and possibly leads to disaster.
but
you don't need to undo your belt to wee like a man
do you ?
Someone...
on the C4 news on Tuesday wore Chino's and Converse. We laughed.
why?
Cause...
we are all a bunch of shallow bastards.
yay!
let's 'do lunch'.
OK, I've got to...
touch the receptionist's 'base' first.
i'll debase your touch
there's a guy i often see in tesco
who wears massive purple trousers and a fluoro jacket with a huge portrait of Goofy on the back.
he has dreads too.
:*(
I think that.
this emo.who is male and wears massive nike shoes, with tight jeans.and a flourescent blue puffa jacket. is the worst I've seen. the jacket is a good idea though, makes him easier to shoot.
That
is possibly the most scene-kid sounding person I've ever heard of. Was he wearing a ribbon in his hair as well?
he sounds amazing.
all of this is making me feel better about my
brown imitation converse, white socks, blue(ish) shorts, grey xmen tshirt combination
Yes, you need a belt all the time
but
1) Brown suit with black shoes and belt ok?
2) WHERE DOES BRAINLOVE GET HIS WICKED FITTED SHIRTS FROM?
He's not poor?
I imagine that's why?
black shoes ok
black belt not ok.
You disrespecting my black belt?
You've just opened a whole can of karate whup ass!
yeah what's wrong with black belts?
mr miyagi had one.
and i have one on right now.
mines a nice khaki colour.
for the record.
ME TOO!
Now wax on this, jessles!
no
black belts in general are fine, alas, with black shoes and a brown suit are wrong wrong wrong.
oh yes, that is just
NO.
agreed, that's not good.
and I always wear a belt with trousers.
they look better.
plus, I am skinny anyway...
i think it's just the brown suit that is sickenly revolting.
why would anyone want to look like a massive walking turd?
south park theme party?
there are also strange people in existence.
Nah, it's really subtle, like you can't see it's brown
It looks wicked. Although I've always been a fan of that 1920s look. Except the hat.
Right, well I have a brown belt, but that's just TOO brown. Stupid fashion rules.
Your belt should
match the colour of your shoes (if black or brown) and if you have belt loops then you should wear a belt
I agree
Belt should match shoes.
If not, I say it should. Got it? Or I'll where my 1920s suit and tommy gun the lot of ya'. Apart from Jack the Biscuit.
The Krays are gonna kill him in the 1960s. Or his brother, or something.
Fashion schmashion
Doing a job in Baker Street for the last few weeks, I've spied a scary number of people dressed in jacket and jeans. How anyone can walk out their front door looking like a Top Gear presenter or Ian McShane circa 1990 is a mystery to me. I wonder if they wear a denim jacket with suit trousers for their Sunday best...
Oh, and there's nothing wrong with wearing a brown suit, as long as you shave your head and wear some thick-rimmed seventies specs, and your mate tucks his shirt deep into his undies (which are up round his nipples). Use frying pans to accessorize ;)
ha
I was actually picturing Eddie when reading this thread.
