Fashionista

[McBain]

Hate

-Teeny chicks looking like they just stepped out of an Olivia Newton John video
-Skinny jeans pulled down so it looks like theres a dump in the back of their pants
-extra long fringes swept to one side
-oversized flannelete shirts with rolled up sleeves
-misuse of pilot sunnies
-guys who spike their hair into a point with mucho too much wax
-tight shorts = so gay
-t-shirts with overstretched head holes
-t-shirts with really short sleeves, obviously for steroid munchers with massive arms
-t-shirts that say things like "St Lucia Festival Cubano" or "San Bruno Lifesaving Association" or "Billy Joes Motor Club" and they arent even really from those places.
-Overuse of Fluro and stripes. They hurt my eyes.
-Tiny boating shoes, that are just like more detailed socks. Slip on's wont look so good when some heavy [Poor language removed] breaks your feet.

Loves

-Hoodies. They're the coolest of all the jumpers.
-Cargo pants. You just cant fail with extra pockets.
-beards. You wont feel like a real man until youve grown some face fluff.
-beanies. Almost as good as the trucker cap.
-Trucker caps. Classy but say 'I could be from the wrong side of the tracks.
-Army Caps. Dont wear one myself but they look awesome.
-Headwear in general. I reckon its stepped up in recent years.
-Skate shoes. Theyve gone from moon boots back to a respectable fit.

Why do kids here dress like theyre from the 80's?? Is it the same in the UK or are you still in tracksuit chic?

80's here was the age of tracksuit chic, we'd moved on from the polyester safari suits that you guys wear a long time before.

I like tracky dack chic. You can do alot with sports gear that you cant get here.

 

[McBain]

They walk around like this, i kid you not

 

[GrandOldTeam]

You mean that lad in that picture was actually real?

I assumed it was a piss take - Sacha Cohen style.

I can just see you in the bushes with your Canon taking photos of naked men

 

[SuitsBlueX2]

rather dislike:
Morbidly obese in boob-tubery.

Its hard to gauge what the rest of the western world wears, but I'm pretty sure fashion here has gone sideways and not in a good way.

I swear walking down the street in Oz would freak you out.

This is sort of tame compared to the 80's stuff kids wear

Plimsolls
Sunnies

Cargo Shorts

Does anyone there wear clothes that actually fit them? Don't they have size labels?

 

[SuitsBlueX2]

You are just a bad beautyist aren't you Bain. Ugmo's have a right to walk the streets too, you get too.

 

[Bundy]

It's only in the city's, us country folk are normal...

 

[McBain]

The country folk arent safe either mate.

Ugmo's. Love it. I'm guessing your a skinny jean wearing trendo? Its ok, you'll look back and laugh like we do at Keppers.

 

[StDomingosGringo]

If you don't wear fluoro in Brisvegas don't expect to be able to buy a t shirt or hoodie within 5k of the CBD. I've got a City beach voucher from Chrimbo I still haven't spent.

Really though mate it's just a generational thing, I still have some ridicularse Mecca's circa 1995. They'll be back in soon. b)

 

[McBain]

The Corey Generation alright.
