Default The fashion....what's the world coming to!

Hah!

This post is more of a 'curious' post....

Well, today walking through the plaza I seen literally in the age group of 16-25 walking around with pink tshirts.... I lost the numbers of how many I seen. But it was a lot! Is this the fashion now-a-days? is time speeding off on me? what's the go?!

I'm not bagging, i'm curious!

So many cute ladies at the plaza as well.....!

Nah I doubt it would of been the breast cancer association, nothing about breast cancer association on the tshirts. Just pictures of flowers an cartoons..... These people weren't in groups & they were shopping. Maybe they were from the bca but I wouldn't know =)

what are you you guys worried about, I was in Melb a couple of days ago and saw a guy walking around the city in a woolen superman suit (including cape). I thought it must have been some promotion, so I stopped him and asked. He looked at me blankly and said, " people are entitled to express themselves any way they like" If this is what the youth of today is coming to, I weep for the future.

Yeah I seen a few chicks with pink, but mainly guys....it catches your eye so maybe they were hang'n out lookin for chicks.

Oh and speak of fashion, is those pug-bug-hug or whatever boots fashion for wearing out side as well, I don't mind em' they look alright. Didn't expect them to be a daily scroll to the shops in. :P - always thought they were just a replacement for slippers. =)

I run a retail store so i have spent many years in shopping centres.

The biggest thing that realy gets to me is not the pink tops but the pink (or any colour for that matter) mid-rifts or bikini tops. Now fine if you have a body like Elle (you would have the confidence) but i still thinks its a bit too over the top for a Westfield.

Even worse is women who obviously dont have a mirror at home. I say that becuase every second girl is getting around in hipsters and short cut tops and they have a belly bigger than a hippo. No i am not poking fun at their body, but surely thay realise that our stomachs are churning when we see their selulite and stretch mark covered fat bags of a stomach (which can touch their knees!)hanging all over the place.

Dont think for a moment im into skinny models, im not. But surley these girls and middle aged women could have more self respect and cover themselves for the good of the general public.

I have a pink business shirt with french cuffs (fold back on themselves and requires cuff links). I've got complimetry cuff links which are chrome with 3 pink lines on them (light to dark), and also a matching tie which is silver, grey and pink. I get compliments everytime I wear it to work from the hottest ladies.

I'm engaged, and my partner bought it for me...

I'm a confessed pink wearer, but very very light pink. In darker light it looks white.

Yes compliments most. Talking with a girl once they said that wearing pink shows that your confident about yourself. Ladies apparently like that...

New Years Eve last year, I noticed the three guys who had been out with my friends were all wearing pink shirts.
Unless you're Ian Thorpe, you're not going to get away with it.

EDIT: Actually HE can't even get away with it...

It's just the tools that wear them in packs of two, three or more.. Or the ones who clearly do it because every other person does it. No, I don't wear pink shirts.

I'm 20 and I don't get it! Pink? WTF? It makes you confident about yourself? Pffft. I'll never wear pink (pink bikes are the exception to the rule) and if that means I'm not going to pick up chicks who think I'm confident about myself based on what shirt I'm wearing so be it. GF reckons she'd drop me if I wore pink anyway.

Pink has been popular now for about 2 years... I remember goin to a night club about 2 yrs ago and making fun of a guy wearing a pink shirt... Now my m8 who was making fun of him has several pink shirts!!!!

same thing as polos are in (warney style; collar up!)

Jarrod, you're THAT desperate to get laid???!!!

Ok now go to the mirror, look at the colour of your face, then buy a shirt to match it cos at least you'll be colour co-ordinated :evil_laug

Look for me personally, any guy that wears different colours gets noticed... I get so sick of perving at guys who only wear black, blue, white. Purple is definitely sexy. I have a friend who has been wearing pink for many, many years before it became "fashionable" and he looks bloody HOT baby tsssssssss.

Nearly all redheads can't wear pink - Molly Ringwald was defective.

Thunder, we discussed this a while back, the good ol' Muffin Top. It's not a great look and can only be worn by a select few girls.
