That's a runway look. They do all kinds of crazy things there. If you wear some of that stuff, be prepared to get laughed at by us regular people.

I think it would help if you looked like that though to make it seem right to me.

Dolly Parton has big boobs!

@TTK - yes gold things can be painfully cheesy with many exceptions, of course.

I have a feeling Posh might disagree with me on this one. But DON'T wear your sunglasses indoors. Lame and tacky in my book. I don't care how fashion cool you think you are...you might as well get an over sized boob job if you want everyone to look at ya.

I have mixed feelings about this one. Graded tint sunglasses in amber for indoors, maybe. Dark tinted (black) sunglasses indoors, no.

How do you feel about Man makeup? My uncle is a big fan of cover up.

Never heard of it until now... but whatever floats your boat I guess...

What she's trying to delicately say is: her uncle dances around the may-pole....

**Kollektor** · 10-06-2008, 06:05 AM

Sounds a bit creepy to me.

**Guanaco** · 10-06-2008, 06:22 AM

Men + makeup? To be completely honest.... NO!

**Kollektor** · 10-06-2008, 08:31 AM

Works for some...

Just saw a pic this morning that made me stop in my tracks. What's your opinion of this one?

I'd say red is a no-no. Talk about screaming, "Ha! I'm here! Can you see me in the dark?!?!?!?!"

Maybe for the ladies, but not on guys.

Along those lines...I was watching an interview/documentary on cars. Ralph Lauren was on and wearing a pair of 'safety orange' cargo pants. They were really over the top.

If you saw me walking down the street in them you would say, what an idiot. Walk by Mr. Lauren and you would say...'genius!' I think we need to know our personal limits on what 'works' and what doesn't.

So weather your name is Dorthy or Dan wearing red shoes could look good. If your name is Big Earl...it might not work.

The good thing about this guy above is that he doesn't look like he's wearing make up, which is ostensibly the key for anyone who deigns to wear make up, in my opinion. Some people often look like they are going on their first day of clown college. I, too, looked like a graduate at certain evening events but that's evening.

LOL But for the day, I really tone it down and go for the "natural" look. Going to some clubs, I see guys who I KNOW are wearing bronzer even their skin tones to match their tans, especially the muscle guys who want to look brawny AND dewy. I'll admit, some do look good and others look ridiculous, like this guy:

Jared Leto and Pete Wentz are smoking hot. End of story. They can wear whatever they want, whenever they want and they'd still be hot. Guyliner brings out their eyes.

That guy looks fine, Merk. His whole outfit works. And those pants aren't red. Those are brick.

I think you are going to lose some fans cause you called those two d*chbags above "hot." I'm not even sure they are men. I'm not even sure they are human.

Jared Leto's band is awesome! And he looks good. Pete Wentz is a part of a good band, Fall Out Boy. Their lead singer is not as attractive as Pete but he's got a wonderful voice.

The only douchebag who wasn't hot was the musclehead.

**bebenn** · 10-06-2008, 08:00 PM

Hmmm, Let's see; I love Crocs, just bought a pair of brown over black Islanders for hunting camp/winter wear.

Wear LL Bean socks with ALL my crocs past October.

Normally tuck in my T-shirts, especially in church.

Consider Wrangler/Levi's at the top of the jean fashion pool.

Will not hesitate to leave my house wearing any combination of shoes, socks, sandals, etc.

Rarely shave on weekends.

Wear baseball hats inside.

Think nothing of wearing sweatshirts, shorts, socks and crocs.

Think the Backstreet Boys are even gayer than the Villiage People.

And worry more about what poeple think of my character, than wardrobe.
