Fashion Faux Pas

With the weather slowly making it was into spring and soon coming into my personal favourite summer, I have already seen an up rise in some bad fashion choices. People have been sporting some of these looks already. Still have fun with fashion and style, lots of opportunity even with the below rules. Now I am all about personal expression and being an individual through your style, but there are something that are just wrong no matter what. NOT MATTER WHAT! So please do not sit there and try and make something up saying it is ok to do what you are doing.

1. Fanny packs. In the traditional sense they are UGLY. There is so many better looking options in bags and backpacks. One thing that maybe a little tiny option would be a running belt when you are actually running. The new flat (very flat) waste bags are a better option if you must.

2. Socks with flip flops (or any kind of sandals). Yes people do this. Unless you are a practicing Geisha there is not reason. If you are worried about having cold feet wear shoes.

3. Crocs! This is not a complete no to crocs but strict rules for them. You can wear them while gardening, taking you dog to a muddy park, working on a pool deck, that is it. Just because you shirt is the same colour as your crocs does not mean to wear it out of the house to dinner.

4. Pig Tails. There are okay if you are under the age of six, sleeping, or they are under a helmet.

5. Not wearing SPF 15 or more. Sun damage means AGING! We want to all age well and look younger be sure to wear SPF daily. If you are planning to spend hours in the sun wear a 30 or more and re apply. Remember to wait at least 30 minutes before you go out when you first put in on.

  1. Buddy, I love you, but I'm going to disagree with the ponytail comment... it's an easy statement to be made by a bald guy. :-) Love you!
